In a cultivation world full of danger, everyone else is giving it their all, fighting tooth and nail to outdo one another. Su Yi, though, devotes himself to mastering the art of keeping a low profile, earning the title of “King of Kings” among cultivators. He lives by the rule, “If you can hide, hide; if you can back down, back down,” and spends his days pinching pennies for resources in his tiny cave abode, dreaming of surviving his tribulation and reaching the pinnacle of life by staying under the radar.
But fate is like a mischievous child who loves playing pranks. An accident leads Su Yi to swallow a mysterious spiritual treasure, and his cultivation shoots up like a rocket, turning him from a nobody into a coveted prize in everyone’s eyes. Now villains as cunning as thousand-year-old foxes are on the move, arriving in a flood with wicked schemes and every trick in the book.
Su Yi wants to keep practicing his low-profile ways and make a quick getaway, but discovers there’s nowhere to run. With no other choice, this “boss of the low-profile world” steels himself and takes on the villains with his devious little schemes, an endless supply of internet memes, and a repertoire of hilarious moves. In the harsh world of cultivation, he alternates between playing the coward and acting pitiful, and plotting with a darkly clever streak, constantly bouncing between keeping his head down and fighting back.
Along the way, Su Yi meets Ling Yu, a free-spirited yet inscrutable man. Together, they form the “Double Heroes of Cunning and Caution” and use their wit and humor to overcome one deadly crisis after another. See how this pair of lovable oddballs rise to become powers everyone looks up to in a harsh cultivation world, in a tale that will leave you laughing until your sides ache and your blood pumping, as they discover the true meaning of survival!
