   The books I've read recently are all quite funny, and the female leads are all incredibly skilled metaphysical masters! 🔥 ① The female lead is a goddess who transmigrated into the body of a fake heiress. She constantly performed rituals to protect her family, but when the real heiress returned, she was immediately kicked out and had to set up a fortune-telling stall, where she met many powerful figures. ② A little kid catches ghosts and even has a cute kitten with him—so adorable! She's the darling of 8 older brothers and 16 nephews. ③ A Taoist priest goes down the mountain to keep vigil at a funeral home, spending his days eating melons with the little cuties. ④ The female lead was struck by lightning during her tribulation and transported to the 21st century. She has no memories and can't even afford food, so she works as a street vendor and does manual labor. I never expected her to be such a powerful figure!
