In her previous life, Lin Qingyuan, a holy maiden of the mystic arts, ran the Haunted Pawnshop. Her spirit-seeing eyes helped maintain the balance between the living and the dead, but her junior sister Su Mei betrayed her in league with outside enemies. They stripped away her spiritual meridians and made her a living sacrifice, sealing her soul away for a hundred years until she died consumed by hatred.
After transmigrating into a book and being reborn, she becomes a little-known streamer with the same name, hated across the internet. The original owner courted attention with suggestive content and was cyberbullied. Her aunt, who favored boys over girls, seized her inheritance and forced her to drop out of school. Then a cursed doll sent by a hater latched onto her soul, and she eventually took her own life. Lin Qingyuan opens her eyes with evil spirits already clinging to her, and the Evil Object Pawnshop System binds itself to her. Collecting haunted objects and solving strange cases will restore her mystic arts. The more viewers her livestream draws, the rarer the lost talismans and ancient artifacts she can redeem!
The haters accuse her of faking supernatural powers? She livestreams the dismantling of a century-old curse on a necklace made of human bones. As the yellow talisman burns by itself and the black mist dissipates, the comments flood with “Master, save me!” The haters switch sides overnight and beg to follow her! Her awful aunt grabs the inheritance and forces her to quit school? With one glance, Lin Qingyuan sees that the aunt’s evil-spirit bracelet is made from a dead person’s finger bone. One curse-breaking talisman draws out the imprint of a finger, exposing the aunt’s grave-robbing scandal!
She ventures into a bizarre ancient village, vanquishes an evil spirit in a mirror, collects copper coins used to seal mouths, and breaks a blood-jade curse. Lin Qingyuan turns her livestream into a “pawnshop for haunted objects,” focusing on her mystic arts and career, with no romance or rivalry between women. As she collects more and more haunted objects, she discovers traces of the Soul-Devouring Art from her previous life in them. The mastermind is not only Su Mei, who betrayed her, but also a secret organization that has cultivated evil spirits for a thousand years. They devour human souls to refine fiends, seeking to overturn the order between yin and yang!
In this life, Lin Qingyuan will exact payment for old blood debts and reopen the Haunted Pawnshop. More than that, she will take charge of the laws governing yin and yang and make every evil spirit and traitor pay the price they deserve!
The overall rhythm is very stable, the plot progress is natural and not brainless, the suspense line and the career line run parallel and do not conflict. It is very comfortable to read, and it can be seen that the author has put a lot of thought into it.
I really like this type of writing, the logic is online, there is no forced sense of fun, and every plot can withstand scrutiny, it is really good.
