After dying in a modern car accident, Gu Lan awakens in Jing Nation, a world of cultivators and celestial prophecies that he has found out to be the world of a novel he partially read. Luckily, he’s armed with two advantages.

1) A "Scholar’s System" that rewards reading and writing—reciting poetry grants cultivation years, and composing stories unlocks martial insights. Another major way to get system points to change the destiny of the characters.

2) Fragmented memories of the novel’s plot, where a tyrannical Empress and a rebel protagonist clash.

Determined to avoid the plot’s carnage, Gu Lan settles in a remote city as a humble scholar. But fate laughs at his plans when he meets Mu Yuyan—a woman of ethereal beauty and quiet grace—at a temple fair. Their love blooms like spring cherry blossoms, and within months, they marry.

There’s just one problem.

Mu Yuyan is actually the reigning Empress, who temporarily leaves the capital (but still reigns the nation) due to a prophecy: "Only by living as a mortal can the nation’s doom be averted." Disguised as a merchant’s daughter, she seeks to break the heavens’ decree… initially unaware her new husband has knowledge of her world’s future.

Traveling through the martial arts world, Li Mo is bound to the investment system and can see the root bones, destiny, and future of the investment object.

The better the other party's destiny, the richer the reward he will get.

Then he found that the cold girl who was his childhood sweetheart was actually the highest level of red destiny, and she would become the empress who dominated the nine heavens and ten earths in the future.

Recently, she seemed to be distressed about how to unlock the dead veins and show her talent in advance?

.....

My name is Ying Bing, one of the nine heavens, the female empress of the Phoenix Sky, suppressing the nine heavens and ten earths with an invincible posture.

I was reborn and bound to a peerless genius system. As long as I rank first among my peers, I can get rewards.

[Do you want to turn on the punishment mechanism? ]

[After turning it on, the reward will be increased, but you need to complete the punishment of the loser to the top after the ranking is announced. ]

Ying Bing: "I can't punish myself, right?"

.....

Many years later.

Ying Bing: "Can't you let me win once?"

Li Mo: "Call me husband first, I didn't hear you clearly before."
