Irreverent blurb: If it doesn’t go viral, I die. Literally.
Serious blurb:
The first problem was that the debt collectors were blocking his door again.
Qi Le thought it was just another ordinary day in his unlucky life, until the screen of his knockoff phone went black and a nonremovable app installed itself by force.
Then, when he tapped the app’s “Beginner’s Gift Pack” to save his life, a cloud of black mist poured out of his phone and gathered into a handsome but world-weary young man dressed in ancient robes. And so the story began.
Xie Bi’an told Qi Le that when mortals face ghosts and gods, inner demons are quick to arise. One careless step, and they could be doomed for eternity.
Qi Le fell into thought, then pulled out his phone, started a livestream, and shouted excitedly, “You guys see this? This big bro next to me just has to stand here, and even inner demons know to steer clear! If you want to pass your exams and avoid overtime, send those rockets now!”
Xie Bi’an: “…Move your camera away from my face first.”
A beautiful, powerful, tragic, world-weary Ghost King X a sociable money-grubber with a bizarre thought process. One is forced to perform to stay alive, while the other is forced to play along to “recharge.” A supernatural livestreaming power fantasy that keeps leveling up.
