[No romance + strong female lead + hilarious cultivation + sect management + modern thinking meets the cultivation world]
Modern office drone Lin Xiaoyu dies from overwork and wakes up as the young sect master of the Puppet Master Sect in the cultivation world!
Just as she thinks she can coast through life as an immortal heiress, her irascible father slaps the table and declares:
“Go into seclusion at once! You will take the sect leader’s seat! You have to take it whether you want to or not!”
Lin Xiaoyu: “Can’t I escape this work-is-a-blessing nonsense?”
She opens the ledgers and nearly blacks out: products aren’t selling, the experience is terrible, production is still done in workshops, and competitors are snatching up all the orders! The entire sect is a “vintage tech company” on the verge of bankruptcy!
To keep the sect from going under and make her dream of becoming a carefree immortal who can lie flat come true, Sect Leader Lin rolls up her sleeves. The soul of a product manager is burning bright!
Are the cave-dwelling arrays too complicated, risking leaks? Change them! Modular designs and idiot-proof manuals let customers set them up themselves, safely and easily!
Are the labor-intensive workshops losing money? Change them! The cultivation world’s first fully automated puppet assembly line is here! Standardized production, dedicated roles, and soaring output!
Can’t cold, lifeless battle puppets compete with spirit pets? Change them! Battle puppets become an elite housework squad! Serving tea and giving shoulder massages are basic skills, and they can even perform girl-group dances together!
Elder: “What kind of behavior is this?” Lin Xiaoyu: “Ever heard of improving the user experience?”
High-end custom orders? VIP members get exclusive perks!
Using modern business thinking, Lin Xiaoyu crushes the sect’s competition with a dimensional advantage. The elders go from baffled to fanatical:
“We don’t understand the Sect Master’s talk of ‘user pain points’ and ‘core competitiveness’... but it sounds amazing!”
Her ultimate goal? Get rid of the hassle and lie flat! Twenty years later, her father, a Nascent Soul cultivator, emerges from seclusion and finds:
Nascent Soul-level puppet butlers wandering all over the sect.
Lin Xiaotian is completely dumbfounded.
“I went into seclusion for a while... How did the sect end up like this? Wait!! That puppet giving me a foot massage... Is it a Nascent Soul puppet?!”
