[Urban Supernatural] [Demonic Cultivator Exposed] [Joins the Government] [Lighthearted Comedy] [Ten Billion Souls Banner]
"Demonic cultivator! Surrender and face justice!"
"The Special Affairs Bureau is recruiting you. Please cooperate with our investigation!"
Gu De was caught between an edict to destroy demons and a recruitment letter. The soul banner at his waist trembled.
Inside it, ten billion souls held their 214th emergency meeting and unanimously passed three resolutions:
Demand official positions.
Pay salaries.
Reimburse heating costs.
Gu De was a food delivery rider, employee ID A2077, with three years of zero late deliveries and zero complaints.
He was also a demonic cultivator. The banner at his waist held ten billion sleeping souls: the dead from wars throughout the ages, wandering spirits without masters, and lingering souls consumed by unfulfilled obsessions.
That night, while delivering food past a street-food stall in the old city, he stumbled upon a supernatural disaster and couldn't help stepping in to save people.
He swore he'd only summoned a tiny little bit from the soul banner.
But someone caught it on a livestream, and the whole internet went wild in an instant.
The righteous Kunlun Alliance mobilized overnight, while the Special Anomalous Events Management Bureau broke down his door.
The whole country was debating whether he was a god or a demon.
Meanwhile, his brothers in the banner cared about only one thing:
"Sir, have our official positions been approved yet?"
[The whole world thinks I keep ten billion souls. Only I know I've got ten billion ancestors waiting for government jobs.]
The Kunlun Alliance has a higher status than the country. They want to kill the protagonist in front of the army. The army does not say a word. They kill the protagonist's sister and the protagonist does not take revenge.
