Shen Lingshu was the last heir of the Mystic Sect. On her way to ascension, one slip of the hand, and...
Her soul transmigrated into the entertainment industry's most miserable supporting actress and stand-in. From the start, the whole internet was cursing her, her agency was demanding three hundred million in damages, and she could only afford half a pack of instant noodles.
But who was Shen Lingshu?
The last big shot of the Heavenly Secrets Pavilion. Her ancestors had chosen tombs for emperors. Now she was forced to draw talismans with a ballpoint pen in a rented apartment, use instant coffee as “consecrated holy water,” and keep a black cat whose tongue was sharper than any client’s. It called itself the “Mystic Sect's Chief Emotional Stability Officer (and Canned-Food Quality Inspector).”
While others livestreamed sales, she livestreamed fortune-telling and face-slapping:
One moment, she exposed a top-tier star's “addiction-to-acting-style romance,” and the next she was guiding the spirit of an unpaid extra who had died on set to the afterlife.
She had just helped a young woman see through the scumbag who sold her WeChat account for 200 yuan, when she turned around and sent a construction boss who had buried a body on-site digging up the whole place through the night.
She said, “I'm not a fraud. I'm a courier for karma. I deliver retribution, postage paid and right to your door.”
The platform banned her livestream?
Three days later, they were begging her to return: “Master! If you don't go live again, the trending searches are going to collapse!”
Netizens accuse her of feudal superstition?
The next second, the chat flooded with messages: “Master, could you tell me when my boss is going to drop dead? I want to set off firecrackers in advance!”
From “hated by the whole internet” to “the metaphysics discipline committee,”
from “merit points +1” to “the Heavenly Book powers on for three seconds,”
she relied on a sharp tongue, an old-person phone containing a Heavenly Book, and a registered spirit cat,
to carve out a path to ascension in a modern world starved of spiritual energy:
“cultivate through livestreaming, earn merit by face-slapping, and sell cat food on the side!”
