The Great Emperor's Mentor

Lin Xia, an ordinary student at a second-tier university in the 21st century, was so overwhelmed with studying for his teaching certificate that he never imagined a sudden electrocution would become the turning point of his life. When his fading consciousness finally returned, the familiar textbooks and computer were gone.

And so Lin Xia, who had dreamed of becoming an “engineer of the human soul,” was forcibly shoved onto the pirate ship of becoming a “quirky soul-reformation master” in the immortal world. He had no choice but to grit his teeth and face the challenge head-on. His task
