QI's system right now categorizes all novels taken from the female novel Chinese site (起点女生网) as 'romance' without fail, regardless of whether they truly are romance. So, if you are here just for the romance, you might want to find a different novel. There will be some romance eventually, but most of this novel is Sci-Fi/Xianxia with a lot of world-building and character development.2) I use British spelling. So, please ensure spelling errors are really errors before reporting them.3) No matter what the release rate up top says, the guaranteed release rate right now is 1 chp/day (a.k.a. 7 chps/week). All else is extra at my discretion. (I'll try my best, but RL responsibilities come first.)

The last Taotie in the world, Qin Yun— Due to getting drunk and flirting with the Pixiu Pei Yan at a banquet in the Heavenly Court, she was sent to the Lower Realm by the Jade Emperor as punishment for disrupting the feast. She turned from a noble little Taotie in Heaven into a cannon fodder female supporting character in the Mortal World...During a reality show, while other artists were seriously completing tasks, Qin Yun ate her way through the entire program, turning herself into a program anomaly. When filming a drama, she ate all the props from the crew, was chased by the director to compensate, and when she opened her small mouth, claiming that our drama will be a hit, and it indeed became a massive success. She became known in the circle as having a 'Golden Mouth, Saying Jade'.Every day her assistant reminded her to eat less, that gaining weight wouldn't look good on camera. Qin Yun turned around and started a live broadcast, activating eatcasting mode, and was even invited to participate in food programs? The most infuriating thing was, while other celebrities starved themselves to dream of eating meat to lose weight, Qin Yun never gained weight no matter how much she ate! She munched her way from being an obscure black-listed artist to the top tier.One day, the head of the Tang Family happened to see her eating broadcast video, recognizing her as his biological daughter. After verification, the entire Tang Family came to acknowledge her, wishing they could compensate her for all the twenty years of neglect.Later, Qin Yun was photographed staying overnight at Pei Yan's house, suspected of making their relationship public. The entire Tang Family appeared to refute the rumors: “All rumors!” While everyone was shocked by Qin Yun's identity, a diligent fan also discovered from a live broadcast that in the glass behind Qin Yun, there was a person sitting not far away working, eventually verified to be the movie emperor Pei Yan.Pei Yan: @Qin Yun Let me introduce, this is my wife. Qin Yun: @Pei Yan This is my caretaker.
