Lin Xiao, an overworked corporate drone, dies suddenly after working overtime and unexpectedly transmigrates to the world of Journey to the West. He gets the Myriad Heavens Talent Agency System, is bound from the start to a rundown temple in Chang’an, and transforms into Director Lin of the “Three Realms Mental Health Research Center”!
The System’s rules are simple and blunt: Reputation Points = Summoning Points! Summoning Points = Talented people from the Myriad Heavens!
And so, things gradually go off the rails:
“Wukong, quit swinging that staff! Put on a chest-breaking boulder act for our new visitor and earn us some incense money!”
“Bajie, where’s the recipe for the ‘Heartbreakingly Delicious Five-Spice Pork Belly’ I just came up with? The Gao Village branch is waiting to open!”
“Little White Dragon! Yes, you! Turn into a convertible supercar. I’m taking Sister Guanyin for a spin!”
“Great Lord Lao? Forget the alchemy furnace for now! Come regulate the temperature in our boiler room!”
“What? The Jade Emperor wants us to put on a show in Heaven? Tell him our schedule is booked for the next five hundred years. Pay up first!”
When Lin Xiao and his “patients” turn the Heavenly Court’s Peach Banquet into a massive dance party, transform the Thunderclap Monastery on Spirit Mountain into a trendy tourist spot, and remake the eighty-one trials into “Team-Building Trips with the Director,” the entire world of Journey to the West is left reeling.
Buddha: This isn’t how the story goes! Where’s Jin Chanzi? Where’s my pilgrim?!
Jade Emperor: How did my High Heaven Palace become a theme park?!
Lin Xiao, lounging with his legs crossed as he counts Reputation Points: Science? What’s that? I only believe in the greatness of the Summoning Arts! Wukong, bow once more.
