Siheyuan: The Dao Ancestor Is Reborn, Starting at the Steel Mill

A Daoist boy who spent a hundred years tending the fire in the world of Journey to the West is reborn in a flash as Jiang Chen, an apprentice at a steel mill in the 1950s.

Looking at the scheming “beastly” neighbors in the courtyard, Jiang Chen laughs.

You think you can play mind games with the Dao Ancestor? You're five hundred years short of his cultivation!

Jia Zhangshi throws a tantrum? I'll make you suffer from ghost oppression every night! Xu Damao plays dirty? I'll make sure you never have descendants! Yi Zhonghai pretends to be kind? Your plans for retirement will come to nothing!

A casual bit of “mirror polishing” stuns the entire factory, and he gets promoted ahead of schedule.

When he feels like it, he makes “health tea pills” for powerful people and gets himself a top-grade protective charm in return.

In a good mood, he can enlighten a “spirit-treasure engraving knife” and solve the problem of aircraft engines.

As for Yu Li, Xu Huizhen, Lou Xiao'e... With the Dao Ancestor descending into the mortal world, isn't it only natural that the immortals fall for him?

Li Yunlong, Zhao Gang... They all have to address him respectfully as “Mr. Jiang”!

Don't mess with me. I only want to cultivate in peace. Otherwise, I'll show you what it means to be an immortal and a mortal!
