After transmigrating into the cultivation world, Huai Jin not only got bound to the [Proud Phoenix] System, but also became the leader of a bandit gang.
The System laid out a bright future for her:
[The path of a great heroine and proud phoenix should start from scratch.]
[Reclaim wasteland, establish a sect, recruit disciples, build your legacy, and ultimately rule the world!]
"..."
Huai Jin looked at the barren mountain before her, where not even a bird would shit, and fell silent.
How could a proud phoenix heroine not have a cheat skill?
Huai Jin's was ridiculously powerful!
She was a summoner!!!
Across the entire cultivation world, sword cultivators and body cultivators were everywhere. Pill, talisman, and artifact cultivators were nothing unusual either. But summoners were as rare as phoenix feathers and unicorn horns.
A powerful summoner could absolutely become an overlord of their age.
Unfortunately, Huai Jin's abilities were absurd.
On her first attempt at summoning, she called forth a rusty old hoe.
From then on, the things she summoned were all kinds of bizarre, and she could even summon people (?!)
Her four disciples were:
Her eldest disciple was a skinny little girl who cried easily.
Her second disciple was a giant, mountain-sized fatty who loved to eat.
Her third disciple was a quiet young man who loved to daydream.
Her fourth disciple was a one-eyed, disabled young man who loved to grin foolishly.
Question: With a crew like this, could she really end up ruling the world?
Answer: Forget ruling the world. She'd better focus on healing her disciples' wounds and raising them up herself.

The cultivation world had countless sects, all recorded in the official registers. Recently, a sect called the Dependable Sect had suddenly appeared and stolen the spotlight.
The cause: The Crown Prince of Xintai, a once-in-a-thousand-years genius, was defeated in an instant by a little girl and left in pieces.
The reason for his death: The Crown Prince had trampled the Dependable Sect's sect leader.
The rumor: The sect leader's eldest disciple was a pile of bones, with a well-behaved exterior and a rakshasa's heart. She was a demon!
As the stories spread and grew more dramatic, Huai Jin calmly sipped fragrant tea and ate the delicacies her disciples had brought her.
She asked her eldest disciple, "A pile of bones? A demon?"
The little girl clung sweetly to her arm and said, "Master, they're talking nonsense. I'm a human girl!"
Huai Jin nodded.
She looked at the other three disciples, who were massaging her shoulders, kneading her back, and telling her stories.
"And you three are human too?"
"The real deal!" "Absolutely!" "Mm."
Behind her back, the four senior and junior disciples exchanged knowing glances. They were all in on it, and none of them revealed their true forms.
*
They had been abandoned, mocked, and hated. They were monsters hiding in dark gutters, unable to bear the light.
Then one day, their Master appeared.
They would live for her and die for her.
They would fight and kill for her, win supreme glory, and make her ruler of the world.
[Reading Guide]
1. Silly comedy, ensemble cast, fighting monsters and leveling up, feel-good thrills, healing, and a two-way devotion between Master and disciples.
2. My own take on the xianxia setting.
Core message: As a teacher, one should set a good example and project a dignified image.
Don't you want to write it? It's really beautiful.
Haha, the little money I got is going to fly away
