The Young Taoist Nun Comes Down From the Mountain: The Entire Court Is Waiting for Me to Scam Them

After finishing her college entrance exams, Lu Meng transmigrates to ancient times and becomes a female Taoist of Shaohua Mountain (Sanqing Mountain), disguised as a man. The good news: she’s bound to a card-drawing System, which calls itself Fellow Daoist. The bad news: she’s transmigrated into the body of a fraudster. From the start, she’s in a death-row prison, planning to con the young tyrant into making her his Imperial Preceptor. The good news: she can still go home. The bad news: she has to make a name for herself across the realm through System 03’s card draws, which means conning everyone, if she wants to go home. Bad news +1: If she’s exposed, she’ll lose her life. Bad news +2: System 03 is sometimes a little buggy. Something’s not quite right. Day One. Lu Meng draws a Wall-Piercing Talisman and spends ages wandering through the death-row prison and torture chambers before finally escaping. When she turns around, the officials and prisoners of Luoyang Prison are all kowtowing and calling her the divine deer immortal of Shaohua Mountain. Day Two. Lu Meng draws a celestial peach. The common folk go into a frenzy of bidding, all just for the chance to taste it. The prefect is consumed with regret. How could he have mistaken an immortal for a criminal and thrown her in the death-row prison? He’s willing to pay the highest bid multiplied by itself an N number of times, as long as he can earn the divine deer immortal’s forgiveness. Every day, Lu Meng diligently draws cards, or, in other words, desperately wracks her brain to trick people. Until one day, she finally meets the young tyrant... The young tyrant uses the search for an immortal as a pretext, hoping to escape the control of his step-empress and her family and fulfill his late father’s last wish. He kills countless Taoist frauds and throws their bodies to the dogs... Until one day, he meets a Taoist named Lu who claims to come from Shaohua Mountain. He decides that this person might, perhaps, possibly... really be an immortal? This novel is also known as The Azure Rainbow Chronicles.
