After Binding to a Merit System, I Rely on Scamming People to Cultivate Immortality

Chu Wangshu was born to be Xie Wujiao's bane.

On her first day in the cultivation world, Chu Wangshu conned Immortal Venerable Wujiu.

The System said: "Not enough merit? No problem, go pick a fight! The more you risk your life, the faster your cultivation improves!"

And so...

She "accidentally" knocked over a pill furnace and blew up the mountain where Xie Wujiao was in seclusion. Merit +1,000.

She "slipped" into a cold pool and caught the Immortal Venerable bathing. Merit +5,000.

She "unintentionally" kissed that unreachable beauty, and the System suddenly set off fireworks: Ding! Merit +9,999!

The cultivation world was outraged: This woman must not be allowed to live!

But later...

The ancient divine sword she'd conned recognized her as its master.

The divine qilin she'd swindled chased after her, calling her Mother.

Even the cold-hearted Immortal Venerable Wujiu caught her by the wrist, turbulent emotions surging in his eyes:

"Wangshu." He said her name, his voice hoarse. "Since you provoked me, you'll have to take responsibility to the end."

Chu Wangshu: Wait! What happened to the aloof Immortal Venerable? How come you're even more forward than I am?

System: Host, your merit points have gone up again. Please continue your performance.

-The cultivation world's guide to conning people: Pick the richest target.

-This Immortal Venerable looks like he'd be easy to fool.

-A kiss boosts your cultivation? What a bargain.

Scrappy and shameless, professional con artist Chu Wangshu x aloof and abstinent, falls-for-her-on-his-own Xie Wujiao

One-on-one + both each other's one and only + happy ending + system cultivation + sweet and satisfying

"Xie Wujiao, your fate is missing me."

"...Mm."

(System: Ding! Merit +1,314!)

Theme: Break free from fatalism and use modern thinking to deconstruct traditional cultivation. Show the spirit of defiance in the idea that even ants can shake the Heavenly Dao, and redefine "merit" as "a gentle touch upon the world, not an act of plunder."
