A Guide to Cultivation Through Crushing Scum

Qiao Xitan transmigrated, and from the start, her husband, whom she had never met, was dead. To top it off, she had a three-year-old younger brother, Xuanwei, who was half-starved.

Xuanwei, the young lord of the demon clan, had seized the body of a country boy. When he opened his eyes, he saw Qiao Xitan, whose face was half-covered by a black birthmark. Expressionless, he drank the goat’s milk she handed him.

Qiao Xitan patted the little boy’s fluffy head. Don’t panic. I can still lie low.

Once she’d managed to stay alive, Qiao Xitan set up a one-stop shop for fried potatoes and chicken cutlets. She and Xuanwei gradually built it into a fast-food chain. Xuanwei had originally planned to return to the demon realm, but he was treated so well that he was getting less and less inclined to go back.

But even if he didn’t return to the demon realm, someone from there came looking for him. Just then, Qiao Xitan got the chance to cultivate immortality, so Xuanwei immediately latched onto her and followed her to an immortal sect.

It was Qiao Xitan’s first time cultivating immortality. She planned to train hard and become a diligent, ambitious cultivator. But why did the sect leader’s future son-in-law look so much like her late husband?

Later, after Qiao Xitan got her divorce papers, she was looking for an opportunity to start a romance of her own when Xuanwei, under a different secret identity, cornered her.

Xuanwei: Come find me! (shouting loudly)

Qiao Xitan: Oh. (muttering quietly)
