Yun Shu is transported into several cultivation novels packed with melodrama, irresistible charm, tragic romance, and all sorts of other tropes. In each one, she plays an indispensable role: the random passerby.
Yun Shu is perfectly happy with a role far outside the main plot’s blast radius, away from all the "you love me, I love him, he loves her; nobody gets what they want, everyone goes dark and slaughters each other" drama.
Even dogs would shake their heads at getting mixed up with these people.

On her first day on the job, the delicate heroine gets injured in a duel. The male supporting characters rush over in a panic, and one of them rudely yanks Yun Shu, a bystander, out of the crowd and tells her to fetch a healer. Luckily, she dodges fast enough to avoid getting spit all over her face.
Yun Shu looks at the scratch that will heal if they don’t call a doctor soon: ...Fine.
On her second day, some doomed cannon fodder are about to bully the heroine. Just as the heroine falls, Yun Shu happens to be passing by, feels a sharp pain in her waist, and ends up breaking the heroine’s fall.
Yun Shu, nearly crushed into coughing up blood by the surprisingly heavy body: What the hell?!
On her nth day, the little spirit flower Yun Shu has painstakingly raised finally blooms. But in the blink of an eye, someone plucks it, leaving nothing but a bare stalk. She clenches her fist and chases after them, only to find her lovesick senior brother standing in front of the heroine, holding her flower!
Yun Shu: You thief! You and I are mortal enemies!
How is this a random passerby? She’s a complete sucker!

After being messed with an average of once a day, Yun Shu takes a long, hard look at herself and reflects deeply.
To hell with this! I’m going to rise up!
Fueled by resentment, Yun Shu throws herself into the fray among all the love-struck fools, striving relentlessly and forging ahead.
In the end, Yun Shu has the beautiful heroine tucked under her left arm and knocks out one jealous male supporting character after another with her right fist.
Huh? Something strange seems to have crept into this story.
Reading Guide:
1. The male lead disguises himself as a woman. He’s not a good person (or even human). Type: a calculating green tea who makes hearts flutter from ten miles away.
Theme: Everyone is the protagonist of their own life.
