Transported to the Cultivation World: The Cannon Fodder Turns Her Fate Around

[Cultivation + a cannon-fodder heroine’s comeback + the male lead appears late; the heroine keeps a low profile and grows stronger in the early chapters] Modern office worker Shi Mo transmigrates into the cultivation world, becoming Gu Shimo, the “jinxed star” abandoned by the Marquis Wu’s household as a child. After their souls merge, she discovers that one of her soul fragments is controlled by the forbidden art known as the “Substitute Curse,” while her twin sister, Gu Yufei, has stolen her fortune.

Outmatched, Shi Mo avoids confronting her directly. Disguised as a boy, she escapes the Marquis Wu’s household and keeps a low profile as she cultivates at Canglan Academy. As time passes, schemes emerge one after another. By repeatedly seizing opportunities meant for the favored daughter of fortune, Shi Mo gradually restores her luck and learns more hidden truths. The truth slowly comes to light.
