Chapter 1: Traveling to Ancient Times and Causing Chaos

Liu Yu, a seemingly ordinary yet imaginative young Taoist priest in the modern world, spends his days idly in the Taoist temple, occasionally earning a little pocket money by telling fortunes and exorcising evil spirits. One day, Liu Yu was strolling around the back mountain as usual, humming a tuneless little tune.

"Ugh, this life is so incredibly boring! When will something exciting happen?" Liu Yu complained, kicking a stone at her feet.

Just then, a strange light streaked across the sky. Liu Yu looked up curiously and saw the light rushing straight towards him. Before he could react, he was enveloped in the light and instantly lost consciousness.

When Liu Yu opened his eyes again, he found himself in an unfamiliar place. He got up from the ground, dusted himself off, and looked around. He saw antique buildings all around him, and the streets were bustling with people dressed in ancient costumes.

"Where...where am I? How did I get here?" Liu Yu asked, looking completely bewildered.

Before he could figure out what was going on, he heard a commotion. He looked in the direction of the sound and saw a group of people gathered in the distance, seemingly watching something interesting. Driven by curiosity, Liu Yu quickly ran over.

Squeezing through the crowd, Liu Yu saw that it was a street performance troupe. A burly man was wielding a large knife with impressive skill, drawing cheers from the audience. Liu Yu, captivated by the performance, couldn't help but shout his approval.

"Great! Great! That's amazing!" Liu Yu clapped and shouted.

Hearing Liu Yu's cheers, the burly man performed even more energetically. After the performance, the man held up a gong and asked the audience for tips. Only then did Liu Yu realize that he didn't have a single penny on him, and he was immediately embarrassed.

"Um... big brother, I didn't bring any money with me today. I'll definitely make it up to you next time," Liu Yu said, scratching his head sheepishly.

Upon hearing this, the burly man's face immediately changed. "What? You have no money and you're still making a fuss here!" he said, and was about to teach Liu Yu a lesson.

Seeing this, Liu Yu immediately turned and ran. As he ran, he shouted, "Big brother, don't be impulsive! Let's talk this out!"

Liu Yu was running recklessly down the street, drawing stares from passersby. As he ran, he suddenly bumped into someone. A cry of "Ouch!" was heard, and Liu Yu and the person fell to the ground together.

Liu Yu rubbed her bottom, stood up, and was about to apologize when she realized she had bumped into a richly dressed young man. The young man got up from the ground, his face turning pale with anger.

"You brat, how dare you bump into me!" the young master cursed, pointing at Liu Yu.

Liu Yu quickly apologized, "Young master, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to."

The young master wouldn't let it go. "Is a simple 'sorry' all it takes? Do you know how expensive this dress is?"

Liu Yu said helplessly, "Young master, I really don't have the money to compensate you."

The young master sneered, "No money? Then come back to my manor with me and work as a laborer to pay off your debts!"

As he spoke, he ordered the servants behind him to take Liu Yu away. Liu Yu was not about to comply, but his eyes darted around and a plan came to him.

"Young master, don't worry, I have a way to make you a lot of money," Liu Yu said mysteriously.

The young master looked at him with a skeptical expression. "What can you possibly do?"

Liu Yu cleared his throat. "Young master, look how lively the street is with people coming and going. If we set up a stall here and perform some novelties, we're sure to attract a lot of people and make a lot of money."

The young master thought it made sense, "So what can you perform?"

Liu Yu thought for a moment, "I can do magic tricks."

The young master became interested, "Then show me one first."

Liu Yu pulled a handkerchief from his pocket, casually waved it, and the handkerchief transformed into a dove. The young master and everyone around him were stunned.

"Great! Great!" Everyone applauded and cheered.

Seeing this, the young master smiled and said, "Not bad, not bad, then we'll set up our stall here."

So, Liu Yu and the young master set up a stall on the street. Liu Yu put all his skills into performing one amazing magic trick after another, attracting a large audience. Before long, he had earned a considerable amount of money.

The young master happily counted the money, and his attitude towards Liu Yu completely changed.

"Brother, you've really got some skills. Let's split this money equally," the young master said.

Liu Yu smiled and accepted the money, "Thank you, young master."

Just as Liu Yu was feeling smug, the system's voice suddenly rang in his mind.

"Congratulations, host, on successfully starting your time-travel journey. Your first task is now: Go to Xu Xian's pharmacy and get to know the White Snake, Bai Suzhen."

Upon hearing this, Liu Yu was stunned. "What? The White Snake, Bai Suzhen? Have I transmigrated into the world of the Legend of the White Snake?"

Without thinking twice, Liu Yu quickly asked passersby where Xu Xian's pharmacy was. Following their directions, Liu Yu arrived at the entrance of Xu Xian's pharmacy.

Just as he was about to go inside, a deafening roar suddenly came from the sky. Liu Yu looked up and saw a huge black shadow crashing down on him.

"Ah!" Liu Yu only had time to let out a scream before being hit by the dark shadow and losing consciousness.

It turned out that the dark figure was none other than Liu Yu himself, who had traveled through time. He fell from the sky and landed right on top of him.

Hearing the commotion, Xu Xian and his assistant in the pharmacy rushed out. They were stunned by what they saw.

"What...what's going on?" Xu Xian asked.

The man shook his head. "I don't know. Someone just suddenly fell from the sky."

Xu Xian stepped forward and checked Liu Yu's condition. "He's still breathing. Quickly carry him inside."

The shop assistants hurriedly carried Liu Yu into the pharmacy.

After a while, Liu Yu slowly woke up. He opened his eyes and saw the unfamiliar surroundings and Xu Xian's concerned gaze. He immediately realized that he had successfully entered Xu Xian's pharmacy.

"Ouch, my head hurts so much," Liu Yu said, feigning pain.

Xu Xian asked, "Young master, how are you feeling?"

Liu Yu looked at Xu Xian and thought to herself, "This is Xu Xian. He seems like an honest man."

"Thank you for saving me, young master. I feel much better now," Liu Yu said.

Xu Xian breathed a sigh of relief, "That's good. May I ask why you fell from the sky, young master?"

Liu Yu's eyes darted around. "To be honest, I was originally a cultivator, but I accidentally went into a qi deviation during cultivation, which is why I fell to this state."

Xu Xian looked at him with a mixture of belief and doubt, "A cultivator?"

Liu Yu nodded quickly, "That's right. I see that you have a full forehead and a square jaw, you are destined for great wealth and honor in the future."

Xu Xian smiled and said, "You flatter me, sir."

Just then, Liu Yu suddenly sensed a powerful aura. A thought flashed through his mind: Could it be the White Snake, Bai Suzhen, arriving?

He looked towards the doorway and saw a woman in white slowly walking towards him. The woman was stunningly beautiful and had an elegant demeanor; it was none other than Bai Suzhen.

Bai Suzhen walked into the pharmacy and frowned slightly when she saw Liu Yu.

Liu Yu's eyes lit up, and she thought to herself, "This Bai Suzhen is indeed a beauty that could topple kingdoms."

"Xu Xian, who is this?" Bai Suzhen asked.

Xu Xian quickly introduced, "This is a young master who descended from the sky and has just woken up."

Liu Yu stood up, cupped his hands in greeting to Bai Suzhen, and said, "I am Liu Yu, greetings to Miss Bai."

Bai Suzhen nodded. "Young Master Liu is too kind."

Liu Yu looked at Bai Suzhen and said with a grin, "Miss Bai is as beautiful as a fairy, I am truly captivated at first sight."

Bai Suzhen blushed. "Young Master Liu is joking."

Xu Xian watched from the side, feeling somewhat uneasy.

Ignoring the question, Liu Yu continued, "Miss Bai, would you mind if we became friends?"

Bai Suzhen hesitated for a moment, "This..."

Just then, the system's voice sounded again.

"Congratulations, host, on successfully getting to know Bai Suzhen. Now, I'm issuing you your second task: Prevent Bai Suzhen from meeting Xu Xian."

Upon hearing this, Liu Yu inwardly groaned. What was she to do?
