You Were Supposed to Reap Souls, So Why Did You Reap Your Father-in-Law?

Zhang Jinghuai visits his girlfriend's family to ask for her hand in marriage, only to be thrown out by her father.

To make money for the wedding, he dons the purple robes again and takes up the position of Celestial Master of Mount Longhu! Daoist disciples across the land all submit to him!

He works for the Underworld, guiding lonely ghosts from the living world and accumulating merit!

He partners with the government to destroy evil spirits and save the common people, all in the hope of becoming richer than any nation!

But his very first soul-catching target turns out to be his future father-in-law!

Future father-in-law: I don't want to die. If you let me go, I'll agree to this marriage...

Zhang Jinghuai: Your allotted years are up. You should enter the cycle of reincarnation!

Punches and kicks! Eye-gouging and crotch-kicking!

He successfully sends his future father-in-law off to be reborn!

The path of the violent Celestial Master officially begins!

…

Lonely ghosts: Where's Fengdu? We don't need a Celestial Master to escort us. We'll go there ourselves!

Underworld enforcers: You're working us so hard, how are we supposed to lie flat? Celestial Master, please go easy on us!

Until that day.

A soul-catching rope leads a monk and a man in a yellow robe into the Underworld.

Zhang Jinghuai: Allow me to introduce them. The one on the left is the Buddha, and the one on the right is the Jade Emperor.

The King of Hell is stunned!
