Stories about taking over someone else's body have become popular in recent times.
The body-swappers in those stories do whatever they want, acting rebellious or giving up on everything. Protected by their golden fingers, they always escape danger, enjoy a smooth road ahead, and find happiness in love.
No one cares what happens to the original owner of the body.
Unfortunately, Mu Ying, the chief disciple of the leader of the demon race, became one of those forsaken souls.
As the future successor to the position of clan leader, Mu Ying was exceptionally gifted and had a bright future. Her master and his wife cherished her, and she had her childhood friend and junior sister by her side.
But now, someone else had it all.
And she herself... was in an ordinary Earth Immortal's body, massaging the legs of her sworn enemy?
What a disastrous start!! Mu Ying nearly passed out.
Her sworn enemy, Yuan Shen, the ancestor of the immortal race, propped herself up and lifted Mu Ying's chin with a fingertip.
"Where did this little immortal come from? Such strong hands."
Later, Mu Ying watched as the body-swapper, wearing her body, smoothly took the position of clan leader, claimed her master's affection, and grew close to her junior sister. That still wasn't enough. The woman even attracted admirers, flirting back and forth with members of the demon race.
But Mu Ying could do nothing. Her family and loved ones doubted her and suspected her. No matter how she tried to prove herself, they refused to believe her.
Only Yuan Shen, who opposed her at every turn, smiled as she pulled her into her arms. "They don't want you. I do."
Yuan Shen, ancestor of the immortal race, had lived for over a hundred thousand years. What kind of person had she not seen?
She thought she had seen through love and escaped the bonds of fate.
She never expected that one day she would be consumed by longing for a little "troublemaker" from the demon race, wanting her but unable to have her.
And this little troublemaker had a whole crowd of random people in her heart, with no place for Yuan Shen at all.
How utterly outrageous!
For once in her life, she was stubbornly single-minded, determined to win one person's heart.
But in the end... she had no choice but to let go.
Who could have guessed that the other woman would come back on her own, clutching her sleeve and refusing to let go? "Yuan Shen, don't leave me..."

Reader's Guide:
[1] The age gap spans generations. Both leads have exes. One-on-one romance, happy ending.
[2] My own take on xianxia, with plenty of original worldbuilding. Each race lives in the Thirty-Six Heavens, as explained in the story.
[3] The story's world has a unique system of gender and sex.
[4] The writing is amateurish. I hope readers enjoy the story. Feel free to discuss the plot and characters reasonably, but please don't attack anyone personally or make a fuss~
