Godsfall in the City: I'm Just a Mortal Who Hunts Gods

My full name is Lin Chongxiao, and my nickname is Gou Shengzi. But nobody knows my real name. Everyone just calls me Gou Shengzi.

My parents died when I was little, and my grandfather and I scraped by selling junk. When I was eight, I was scavenging with him at a garbage dump when we found my little sister, Lin Zao'er. She got her name because she was gnawing on a rotten date.

Lin Zao'er has a heart condition and needs a fortune for surgery. For us, it was the last thing we needed.

After Grandpa passed away, I barely got by selling scrap and doing odd jobs...

Then one day, a demolition crew's bulldozer barreled toward our shack. I was sent flying when I tried to protect my sister. As I lay dying, I felt something burrow into my skull: a fragment of the Investiture of the Gods.

A thousand years ago, after the Investiture of the Gods was completed, Shen Gongbao resented the Heavenly Court's control. He joined forces with King Zhou, Daji, and four other gods to tear up the divine list and escape. They fled through time, life after life, while the spirit of the list pursued them, life after life. Now, in this age of towering skyscrapers, I, a man with the fate of an ordinary mortal, have become bound to this damn System.

And I had only one belief in my heart:

Whatever you are, keep me alive. Give me five million so I can cure Lin Zao'er's illness, then let the two of us have a warm home.

But this damn System only gave me two worthless scrolls. With no other choice, I relied on my divine skill, Falsehood Discernment, to scrape together Lin Zao'er's first lifesaving sum at a stone gambling stall.

When my other divine skill awakened, I discovered that Lin Zao'er's illness wasn't congenital at all. The Fei Zhong real estate group had secretly caused it.

Fine! You gods, running away for three thousand years and now throwing your weight around in the mortal world! Today, with this mortal body, I'll force every last one of you back into the Investiture of the Gods!
