Tang Wan, a PE teacher, transmigrates into the body of a young lady with the same name who has just gotten married.
This is awful. She's in ancient times now, so she can't play basketball.
After drinking several pots of tea and confirming that she can't go back, Tang Wan slaps her forehead.
She'll make a basketball.
Not long after it's finished, a basketball craze sweeps through Ji'an City. Tang Wan becomes a national sports idol overnight, even catching the attention of Emperor Qi Miao.
The petty emperor bestows on her the title of Basketball Immortal, then sends her husband off to war.
Tang Wan: Fine, fine, I'll gladly accept my reputation as the Basketball Immortal, but don't send my frail, decorous husband off to die on the battlefield!!!

After marrying Tang Wan, Xu Jin feels as if she's become a completely different person.
Then she scores a perfect bicycle kick during the Dragon Boat Festival cuju match, and he becomes certain his new bride has been possessed.
If she has been possessed, that's fine. They can just invite the wronged spirit out of her body...
Except they can't.
Xu Chen: Y-You! Get out of Miss Wan's body right now! Demons and ghosts, go away! Demons and ghosts, go away!
Tang Wan: Stop with the hocus-pocus. It's a transmigration of souls, a transmigration of souls! Do you understand?!
