In an age of spiritual qi revival, gods awaken, spirits run rampant, and psychics become the focus of the world. Shen Yue, a top-tier therapist with not a trace of psychic power, opens a private restaurant called “The Soul Kitchen.” His customers are an unusual bunch: a Kitchen God depressed by the gulf between eras, a spirit of words whose divine nature has been tainted by online harassment, and a great demon on the verge of collapse as its power spirals out of control... When every psychic organization is powerless to help them, Shen Yue serves up dish after dish infused with the “flame of civilization.” A bowl of calming porridge quells the Fire God's rage; a cup of heart-cleansing curds purifies a lake spirit's resentment. He gradually realizes that what he cooks is no ordinary food, but the rarest things in this era straddling old and new: “salvation” and an “anchor.”
