Who gets it?! In my previous life, I was softhearted and got tricked by a vengeful ghost until my soul was destroyed. Three hundred years later, I’m reborn as Xia Ming, a modern underworld bailiff in a suit who captures souls!
My very first assignment goes horribly wrong!!!!
The runaway soul, Yu Qing, cries and begs for more time to visit her grandmother. Remembering the lesson from my past life, I still can’t resist my bleeding heart. I turn around and step right into a magical trap, and the King of the Underworld gives me seven days to live: if I don’t bring back the runaway soul, I’m going straight to the hundredth level of hell for a team-building retreat!
The investigation reveals that this woman was murdered by her scumbag boyfriend for the insurance money. She fled her soul only to get revenge, and the dark energy she left behind is somehow connected to the stolen underworld merit case from three hundred years ago!
And it gets even crazier: the rebellious underworld group, the Dark Nether Hall, is plotting something. They say the lotus mark on flower shop owner Lin Tang is the “key between yin and yang,” and even the King of the Underworld’s own younger brother is the mastermind?
Armed with the shabby bell of a former underworld general and accompanied by a junior with yin-yang eyes, I battle the Dark Nether Hall’s assassins with my wits while bringing workplace order to the netherworld and grinding out my KPIs.
