Longmen Escort Agency: Bring It On, Jianghu!

On the 365,000th day of his thousand-year cycle, Ling Chen finally figured it out: Why bother fighting for supremacy over the martial world when running an escort agency is so much more fun? And so, Longmen Escort Agency gained a crew of “hidden dragons and young phoenixes”: The chatterbox mule Jiu Jin, who grumbles every day, “The boss is using fragments of the Fate Cauldron to prop up the table again.” The pedantic bookkeeper Wen Yan, who writes The Martial Ancestor’s Biography and describes Su Yue Ning as “the beauty of osmanthus cakes.” And a bunch of beauties who drop by every day for a free meal Su Yue Ning rushes to wash the dishes (actually, she wants to steal the recipe for noodles with gravy), while Mei Qing carries the Netherworld Banner on escort missions (really, she’s after Tie Furong’s chili sauce). Only when the Fate Cauldron appears and the Demon God opens its eyes does the martial world realize: The escort chief who pinches every penny when calculating wages can crush destiny with his bare hands; The cook who fries stinky tofu can split a Demon God’s armor with her wok spatula; And all of it is written in Ling Chen’s yellowing Cycle Diary: “Day 10086: Today I taught the Demon God to dance in the plaza. It’s more perceptive than Zhao Qingdie.”
