Ye Shu is told by Tian Dao Xiao Bai that he turns out to be the Child of Destiny, but an otherworldly system has stolen his fortune, causing multiple heroines to want to kill him after their rebirth. To break the deadlock, while using verbal defense, refining pills, and practicing cultivation, he dashes back and forth between the Monster Mountain Range, Yuanyang Town, and the Dangur Desert, getting entangled in grievances and entanglements with Dan Xia, Lin Qingxue, Xia Hanmo, Zhao Zhixia, and others. To seize the Cyan Lotus Heavenly Flame to save Xia Hanmo, he sneaks into the Snake Clan's Holy City, escapes death by faking it at the Exotic Flame Grand Ceremony, and finally transforms into a cyan phoenix (Qingniao), rescuing Qing Li from beneath the blade. With anti-trope cultivation, open-hand game theory, and layers of plot twists, the story tells of how he struggles to survive against the current while the whole world is his enemy.
