A paper effigy shop where summoning immortals shortens your life, and every female immortal is one of her own!
Shen Yao works herself to death in a 996 job and transmigrates into the heir of a paper effigy shop in the Qing Dynasty. Inviting an immortal to possess her brings backlash, and painting eyes on paper figures costs her years of life…
But why are all five immortals enshrined in her hall her aunts?
Hu Sangu, forced into marriage in the late Qing; a female doctor wrongly killed in the Republican era; a female general who died in battle during the Tang Dynasty; and even a programmer from 2019 who, just like her, worked herself to death… Five women, and all the drama that comes with them.
Seal seven spiritual springs and save her grandfather’s soul, at the cost of three years of her life?
Deal!
Because they’re not just immortals she can use… They’re her family!
