Stop Reading Too Much Into It, I'm Really Not a Hidden Master

After being laid off and dumped, Cheng Jingxing inherits a traditional courtyard house in the capital and just wants to lie flat and live an ordinary life. But in an "inner world" where the supernatural is making a comeback, his home is a "singularity" connecting two worlds, and he is mistaken for a reclusive master as people around him wildly read things into everything he does.

The stray cat he casually feeds is a demon king, and the trash he throws away can solve decade-old cold cases. In the eyes of the country's secret organization, Bureau 749, European royalty, and the reclusive Kunlun Sect, these unintentional acts are miracles of "the Great Way made simple." Factions struggle endlessly to receive his "enlightenment," interpreting his every confusion and denial as an even more profound test.

Meanwhile, Cheng Jingxing's biggest headache is: Please stop reading so much into everything! I'm really not a master. I've just been a tiny bit lucky!
