[Occult + strong female lead + no romance + episodic stories + crime-solving + a touch of ensemble cast] The tags were changed by the System!!!!!!
P.S. No sweet romance here, only the one-sided infatuation of those who submit.
Ling Jian has cultivated the Path of Ruthlessness for three hundred years. Just as she is about to face its final thunderbolt, the Heavenly Dao orders her to descend to the mortal world and undergo a trial of love.
"I cultivate the Path of Ruthlessness. Why must I undergo a trial of love?"
The Heavenly Dao says nothing, leaving only a seed of the Lotus of Mortal Life.
Only when it blooms can she ascend to immortality.
And the Heavenly Dao is downright unreasonable, sending her straight into someone else's home.
So in the middle of the night, she is escorted to the police station...
Later, Ling Jian wanders the mortal world, guiding lonely spirits home and helping them lay their regrets to rest.
Along the way, she meets like-minded companions and experiences the joys and sorrows of life.
At last, she understands:
The true Path of Ruthlessness is not indifference, but freedom.
At last, the Lotus of Mortal Life bursts into bloom. She attains the Daoist heart, a radiant glow descends to guide her, and the gates of immortality swing open.
But Ling Jian turns and walks the other way. From then on, she remains in the mortal world, passing judgment on injustice and becoming a peerless god of slaughter.
The blurb is terrible. Just read the story.
