Work Text:
I’m now far enough into the story that I’ve had my fun surprising everyone with everything, so I’m willing to give a better summary that actually gives people a better idea of what’s going on. But over here. Not on the main story. Because the slow reveals are part of the prime experience for the first 20 or so chapters, so if you’d like to read it as intended, stop here and go over there to read it.
~Because there are SPOILERS ahead if you haven’t reached chapter 23~
But if you don’t care, or already read that far … welcome~!

Alternative Summary (kind of):
Bingge tore through reality in a version of SVSSS where Shen Yuan has yet to push Bingmei into the Endless Abyss, killing Liu Qingge and Bingmei, and forcing the System to repatriate Shen Yuan back to his original world. Some System kerfuffles happened, and it was forced to attach itself to Liu Qingge, transmigrating him into that world’s ‘Liu Qingge’ as a cannon fodder in a dogblood drama story.
Shen Yuan and Liu Qingge discover that this world has cultivation and the reincarnations of the people they knew (and some they didn’t) from SVSSS, and the two of them work together to thwart ‘Liu Qingge’s’ bitchy gold-digger ex girlfriend and regain their cultivations.
As they navigate this ‘new’ world of cultivation and make a name for themselves, they pick up a certain Airplane along the way. This story is basically Liushen power couple with a side of AirplanexHappiness.
Meanwhile...
Plagued by a dream where a crazy version of himself kills him, Bingmei’s reincarnation is embroiled in a mess of rich people and cultivator dogblood drama. How this relates to our other intrepid heroes remains to be seen…

|
|
The Shens’ second son, a talented (and somewhat ruthless) entrepreneur in digital and social media business. |
|
|
The Shens’ third son, born weak and predicted to have an early death. Heavily doted on and keeps out of the public eye. |
|
|
The Shens’ youngest daughter. Cheerful, spunky, and a little spicy, she’s not quite sure where she wants to go in life, but she’s going to get there going full speed. |

A gentle old man who lived modestly as a park groundskeeper. |

The Shens’ Hired Help
|
Known primarily as Shen Yuan’s driver, he’s secretly the Shens’ Head of Security, as well as a former potential powerhouse in the cultivation world. He was picked up by Grandfather Shen when he was betrayed and left for dead as a much younger man. |
|
|
A housekeeper who has been with the Shens for many, many years. Reluctant to retire, she was reassigned to the much less stressful position of housekeeping for the Shens’ third son. |
|
|
The leader of one of the Shens’ security squads, this serious and diligent young man is often subjected to Shen Jiu’s brocon whims, as well as the whims of the Tian triplets. He is one of the more talented cultivators under the Shens’ employ, but still nothing to write home about. |
|
|
The Tian Triplets make up Gong Xiaoyi’s squad, and are very much fujoshis. They practice qigong, but wouldn’t really be considered ‘cultivators’ in the truest sense. |
