After who knew how many cycles of reincarnation, Luo Sanqiu finally realized that she hadn't just transmigrated, she'd transmigrated into a book!
At the beginning of the story, there was an aloof, compassionate immortal lord of breathtaking beauty, a wild and wicked demon lord of bewitching charm, and a blood-soaked devil lord who looked down on everyone. Even the future schemer of a mortal male lead was still a fresh, crisp, tender little cabbage...
But none of this had anything to do with Luo Sanqiu.
She, Luo Sanqiu, who couldn't die, had long since stopped being human.
She'd been everything that flew in the sky, swam in the water, or grew from the earth. The longest she'd ever lived was as a tortoise in someone else's tank.

One day, in some year, in some month.
The good news: Luo Sanqiu had finally become a person again.
The bad news: According to the original story, the badly injured immortal lord and the dying demon lord were about to fight above her head. The immortal would win and the demon would lose. To commemorate the battle, Luo Sanqiu's village would be renamed Nuclear Peace Village.
An even worse piece of news: Before the immortal lord and demon lord had even arrived, Luo Sanqiu was already trapped inside their barrier and couldn't get out.
There is always a way out.
On the eve of the battle, Luo Sanqiu found both the badly injured immortal lord and the dying demon lord at her doorstep.
By the usual rules, if she wanted to survive, she had to pick one powerful patron to cling to.
Luo Sanqiu: Investing is risky. Choose your stake carefully.
So, by day, in front of the immortal lord, Luo Sanqiu was a junior of the immortal sect who had wandered into a deadly place but refused to give up, with excellent natural talent and an exceptional temperament. She could retreat to poetry, tea, flowers, and wine, or advance and join him in fighting the demon lord.
At night, in front of the demon lord, Luo Sanqiu was a mortal girl with a spiritual root but no clue how to use it, exceptionally innocent and lively. She could help him gather intelligence and kill his archenemy, or be swallowed in one bite as a nutritious medicinal meal. One person, two uses.
And so Luo Sanqiu made a stand both day and night, enduring until the two protagonists finally entered the story.
The immortal lord was serene and radiant, the demon lord blazing with demonic energy. Both saw her as a confidante.
Luo Sanqiu sharpened the sword in her hand and quietly hid it away.
Theme: I had an old friend who left with his sword, to cut down every spring breeze, yet never return.
