Reborn, I Work as a Security Guard in the Heavenly Court

[Mythology Fusion] [Cthulhu Mythos] [Mortal's Journey] [Historical What-Ifs]

My name is Li You. The You means "reason," not the You in Li You, the name of that other guy.

I transmigrated by accident and became one of the Heavenly Court's hundred thousand celestial soldiers. I thought I'd landed a secure job for life.

Who knew that on my very first day, I'd be sent to join the campaign against Sun Wukong? I almost ended up as a nameless extra.

All I wanted was to slack off and enjoy eternal life, but I kept getting sent to clean up historical messes:

Aggrieved ghosts in the Tang Dynasty, something sinister during the Jingkang Incident of the Northern Song, the Black Death sweeping across Europe...

Then I discovered that behind every historical event, an indescribable shadow was writhing.

The Great Sage whispered in my ear, "Kid, the heavens and earth are about to collapse."

The incarnations of the Three Pure Ones were anchoring the cracks in the void.

And me? A former celestial soldier, now a roaming spirit, destined to become... a Celestial Venerable.

I have to hold up the heavens again.
