A once-mighty immortal has been reborn, only to become a despised live-in son-in-law and stay-at-home dad in a modern city. Lin Xuan, the man whose body he now inhabits, was timid and deep in debt. To save his gravely ill mother, he married into the Su family, becoming Su Qingxue’s husband in name and taking responsibility for her adopted niece, Niannian. Now reborn as an immortal, Lin Xuan faces campus ridicule, the family’s cold stares, his wife’s indifference, and a little girl who needs his careful attention. He had hoped to quietly regain his strength, but trouble keeps coming. When Niannian is bullied at school, he uses a simple trick to make the bullies pay for their actions. Publicly humiliated at a family banquet, he casually identifies a fake antique and leaves everyone stunned. When his wife’s company falls into a business trap, he discreetly resolves the crisis with business acumen far ahead of its time. His power is slow to return, however, while his enemies grow stronger. From campus thugs to business tycoons, from family infighting to mysterious ancient martial arts factions, Lin Xuan discovers that this modern city is far more than it appears. Hidden forces connected to the world of his past life are stirring beneath the surface. As he protects his family, conceals his identity, and faces threats both open and unseen, he must uncover the truth behind his rebirth and gradually establish a new order of his own, one that rises above the rules of ordinary society. This is a tale of an immortal using overwhelming power to crush the competition in the jungles of campus and the city, and of a father and husband taking on the whole world to protect his family.
