The thing Lü Xiaoye regrets most in his life is inheriting that haunted old mansion.
By day, he’s a remedial student being hounded by his counselor. By night, he has to clutch his Judge’s Brush and work for the King of Hell.
Ox-Head and Horse-Face livestream ghost hunts with mourning staffs, Meng Po sells forgetfulness water bubble tea on the Bridge of Helplessness, the Matchmaker accidentally ties a saintess’s red thread to a zombie, and Nezha races Zeus on his Wind Fire Wheels to deliver packages...
The gods of this generation in the underworld aren’t normal, not one of them!
It’s not until the Eye of the Yellow Springs erupts and the words of the Bible crawl across the Book of Life and Death that Lü Xiaoye realizes the truth:
The slumber of the Eastern gods and the revival of the Western deities are part of a conspiracy spanning a thousand years.
Only the Judge’s Brush in his hand can change everything.
Erlang Shen cleaves open the barrier of holy light, while the Roaring Celestial Dog grabs Zeus’s toupee and shakes it furiously.
“This little master’s spear is made to deal with foreign gods!”
Nezha unleashes all six arms and three heads, driving his Fire-Tipped Spear straight through Mount Olympus.
“Quiet! You’re all my snacks!”
The half-ghost-king girl Xiao Jiu rips an angel’s wings with her left claw and tears out Xing Tian’s heart with her right. Her delivery box is stuffed with divine artifacts.
As the Chaos Green Lotus devours heaven and earth, Lü Xiaoye offers up his eyes. His Judge’s Brush writes one final line of merit in the air:
“From this day on, good and evil shall be judged by the hearts of mortals. The gods shall abdicate, and merit shall rule the heavens!”
