Synopsis

Chen Ping'an, a graduate student in folklore, has never believed in ghosts or gods.

That is, until he inherited his old family home and caught a fox spirit sitting on his sofa in the middle of the night, playing Honor of Kings. Then it tossed him an employment contract from the “Household Spirits Affairs Office.”

From then on, his materialist worldview completely fell apart:

Huang Xian works as a delivery driver, gathering intelligence. Bai Xian runs a traditional Chinese medicine clinic and secretly uses spiritual needles. Liu Xian moonlights as an exorcist, while Hui Xian controls the financial networks. And his fox-spirit partner, Hu Shiqi, is sharp-tongued, haughty, and obsessed with card draws, yet will shield him from a soul-destroying cannon when his life is on the line.

When the Spirit-Breaking Society's technological magical weapons take aim at the city, and the shadow of a fallen Earth Immortal looms over the dragon veins, Chen Ping'an finally understands: the ancestral shamanic drum and his bloodline are the last key to maintaining the balance of the world's spiritual arteries.

The survival of the human and spirit realms rests in the hands of this “least devout” folklorist.
