[Reborn as Guanyin, I Turn the Journey to the West into a Lingshan Bankruptcy Liquidation!]
One moment I was a modern-day corporate drone. The next, I had become the second-in-command of Western Bull Continent: the Bodhisattva Guanshiyin.
Before I could even process it, I heard the Tathagata Buddha onstage making a grand speech about the glorious mission of the Journey to the West.
Everyone else heard compassion. All I heard was a monopoly!
These gods and Buddhas weren’t saving all living things. They were turning the Three Realms into a battleground for harvesting incense offerings! Sun Wukong was the troublemaker they had suppressed, and Tang Sanzang was their spokesperson for winning the faith of mortals.
Since I’ve been handed the reins as project director, don’t blame me for using modern methods to crush your business and take away your livelihoods!
In public, I’m Guanyin of the South Sea, compassionate and merciful, scattering sweet dew everywhere to boost my KPIs.
Behind the scenes, I inherit Patriarch Bodhi’s mantle and build the Three Realms’ largest dark-web empire on Fangcun Mountain.
“Brother Monkey, are the copper juice and iron pellets beneath Five Finger Mountain tasty? If you’re fed up, call me Senior Sister and come help me pull off something big!”
“Jiang Liu’er, if Lingshan’s Buddhism can’t contain your compassion, then I’ll kill these gods and Buddhas for you!”
Seizing control of the Journey to the West, poaching the Earth Immortals’ foundations, turning the Bull Demon King’s hundred-thousand-strong army, and taking over the surveillance network of the Supreme Lord Lao…
When the pilgrimage team marches up with a demon army armed to the teeth and kicks open the gates of the Great Thunderclap Monastery, the Tathagata Buddha panics. “Guanyin, are you on a pilgrimage, or staging a coup?!”
Seated upon a ninth-grade lotus throne, I give him a cold smile. “Buddha, times have changed. You’re due for optimization!”
