After Being Stripped of Everything, I Became the Leader of the Immortal Path

Until a young girl crashed into her life, forcefully seizing everything. Lu Shaoheng employed countless schemes, yet she always met defeat due to various coincidences. Former friends turned against her, her parents viewed her as a mere object of transaction, and her eldest brother—who gained fame by borrowing her poetry and strategies—chose to betray her. Her younger brother, whom she had guided to success after he studied the martial classics, looked down on her with contempt, and her fiancé had long since moved his affections elsewhere... As Lu Shaoheng lay in a ruined temple, suffering from hunger and cold, a voice rang out. [Life is like a play. You are destined to be Jiang Yunjiang's foil, a perpetual clown. But now, you can choose to return to the past and turn the tide.] [Return to the beginning. You can offer everything to Jiang Yunjiang in exchange for a decent future. Or, you can recalculate and compete once more.] To start anew—what a wonderful adventure. But Shaoheng chose to cast aside the past and simply move forward. She was going to cultivate immortality! "I have never had regrets, so why bother starting over?" Casting away resentment and unwillingness, Shaoheng realized that power is the cornerstone of all rules. Ambition awakened from her very bones, and desire spread like wildfire. Look—mountains and rivers may weather and change their forms, and rivers may reverse their course, but she will always move forward. ... Cultivation cares not for the passing years. When Shaoheng looked back, she had gone from her first steps on the immortal path to topping the Phoenix Cry Rankings, ascending straight to the clouds, and slaying immortals with her sword. Along the way, she had long since become the foremost leader of the immortal path, admired by the entire world.
