   Reader note

   This metaphysical novel is amazing! The female lead is incredibly strong but not a saint. She catches ghosts, draws talismans, opens the gates of hell, is familiar with the King of Hell, and is proficient in everything from exorcising ghosts to feng shui and fortune telling. In her past life, she was a master of metaphysics who accidentally transmigrated into this novel. She easily defeats all the other metaphysical masters in the book, and even the strongest one becomes her disciple. Most importantly, she doesn't have to bear any karmic burden from slaying evil ghosts; instead, she receives merit as a reward. She can fight without hesitation, making it incredibly satisfying to read! The ending is perfect—she ascends to immortality through accumulating merit!

    This story combines metaphysics with multiple short episodic stories and a small amount of entertainment industry information (mainly live streaming; the protagonist has no agent, no acting or filming, only participated in one variety show and filmed one music video). There are very few villains, and they are dealt with swiftly, disappearing without a trace. Except for the first villain, Li Feng, who was reborn but didn't cause any trouble and vanished as soon as he appeared. In this metaphysical novel, when retribution is due, there's no desperate attempt to persuade the protagonist to reincarnate. The fighting and revenge are genuine. The male lead doesn't hold the female lead back, and he's very down-to-earth in the early stages (e. G., He's terrified of ghosts). Later, the male lead's inner energy makes things much easier for the female lead, but she is the most powerful character in the entire story. Personally, I think the female lead is more powerful than the male lead in terms of cultivation, since he's not the King of Hell or the Ghost King, etc. The male and female leads are incredibly sweet. If you like metaphysical novels, you should check this out; it's a very well-paced story. The stepmother is like a loving mother, and the family is very warm and loving.
