Three hundred years ago, Lin Zhao was the Immortal Court’s Imperial Preceptor, whose power kept the Nine Provinces in check. Three hundred years later, all he wants is to deliver takeout, fix appliances, feed a black cat, and enjoy a quiet, ordinary life in Jiangcheng’s old town.
But the spiritual veins revive, sects move into the city, and old enemies reappear. Powerful families, demons, and the Special Affairs Bureau all come knocking. Everyone thinks he’s a hidden master, but Lin Zhao insists he’s just a tenant.
When the old scores are reopened and the corrupted Heavenly Dao turns its gaze on the mortal world once more, Lin Zhao finally understands that sometimes, someone has to stand up for an ordinary life.
One man, one cat, and one little electric scooter: he delivers across Jiangcheng and keeps the myriad heavens in check.
