You Were Told to Build a Beginner's Village, So Why Are You Using Gods and Demons as Laborers?

[Lighthearted comedy, farming, ensemble cast, unbeatable protagonist, wish-fulfillment]

Rustic village life versus the lofty airs of the great and powerful

Chen Xun only wants to be a laid-back village chief, far from the bloody turmoil of the immortal cultivation world. He wants to keep a low profile and grow stronger, and absolutely refuses to take risks.

But little by little, he discovers that the novice village he built… isn’t quite right.

They water the vegetables with the source of the earth, plow the fields with a Primordial Kui Ox, and have an Ancient Divine Hound guard the entrance. Even village women arguing contain the true meaning of the Great Dao!

And that’s not even the craziest part…

A peerless Demon Venerable who has slaughtered countless people comes to the village to raise chickens as a hired hand;

A fated prince comes to work as the village’s star manure collector;

A peerless saintess and an empress become dish-breaking dishwashers in the village…

While the peerless big shots who can turn the world upside down are overwhelmed with gratitude for a bowl of chicken soup;

While two Immortal Emperors fight until heaven and earth shatter over a five-cent paycheck;

While Abyssal overlords are ready to conquer the universe for a spot on an assembly line…

Chen Xun, right at the heart of the storm, knows nothing about any of it. He simply puts out the Huazi cigarette in his hand and smiles with satisfaction.

“Ah, there’s nothing like this honest, cheap labor!”
