Journey to the West: A Slacker in the Imperial Stables Becomes a Heavenly Court Bigwig

Everyone says the Imperial Stables Office is Heaven's most hopeless, low-profile bureau and the place where blame goes to die.

No one knows it conceals the ultimate secret, one capable of shaking Heaven's fortune.

Li Yan transmigrates into the lowest-ranking ninth-grade assistant supervisor at the Imperial Stables Office. With no System or cheat, from the start he runs straight into a deadly predicament: Sun Wukong is about to take up his post.

He doesn't fight over lucky chances, seek Bodhi as his master, or meddle in the main pilgrimage plot. He simply takes careful steps within the Imperial Stables Office.

He understands the heavenly horses' grumbling and holds the dirt on the entire Heavenly Court.

He can spot loopholes in the heavenly laws and work the rules of the workplace.

He avoids the deadly calamities of the Journey to the West and builds the strongest network of connections.

From a ninth-grade assistant supervisor to the power broker of the Imperial Stables Office, and then to an invisible heavyweight in the Heavenly Court.

The Jade Emperor investigated for a hundred years but never discovered that the person secretly manipulating the Journey to the West was right under his nose, in the Imperial Stables Office.

Only when Heaven's fortune collapsed did everyone realize:

The greatest winner of the entire Journey to the West was never the Tathagata or Wukong, but the unremarkable little official in the Imperial Stables Office.
