Hu Dazhuang was twenty-eight and a low-level wage slave at an advertising agency. His boss treated him like a dog, his buddy stole his girlfriend, and his girlfriend spent all his money before running off with someone else. He climbed Mount Tai to clear his head, slipped, fell off a cliff, and died.
In the underworld, the Meng Po Soup had been watered down to meet its KPI targets. He spat it out after one gulp and never drank it.
In a daze, he fell into the cultivation world and became a servant responsible for sweeping at the Heavenly Sword Sect. While others cultivated with spiritual roots, he relied on the skills he'd honed as a wage slave in his previous life: managing projects, calculating efficiency, and outworking everyone else.
