   As night fell, Jianghan City was ablaze with lights and bustling with traffic, a scene of vibrant prosperity. In a narrow alley leading to the old city, a young man in a yellow Ugly Group delivery uniform weaved through the crowds on his electric scooter. "Get out of the way... Get out of the way..." Ugly Group delivery rider "Chang Le" shouted, urging pedestrians to move aside. He was supposed to be on duty at the city hospital morgue, but he had taken on an extra order, resulting in a half-hour delay in preparing the food. Not only was he late for his delivery, but he was also about to be late for his part-time job at the city hospital. It was truly a case of 'greed knows no bounds.' Chang Le regretted his actions as he floored the accelerator, speeding towards the old city. Five minutes later, Chang Le finally arrived at his destination: a dilapidated neighborhood in the old city. Compared to the bustling modern metropolis outside, this place was eerily quiet. It was just past eight o'clock in the evening, a perfect time to go out and cool off in the sweltering summer heat, yet the entire compound was deserted. The rows of red-brick apartment buildings exuded a strong sense of age. This compound was probably older than Chang Le himself. To make matters worse, none of the buildings had numbers, so how was he supposed to find apartment 402 in building eight, unit three? He tried calling customers, but no one answered. Chang Le was about to return to the guardhouse to ask the gatekeeper when, as soon as he turned around, he saw a dark figure standing silently behind him. This sudden appearance nearly gave Chang Le a heart attack. However, after calming down, he took a closer look and realized the person was a stunningly beautiful woman. She wore a black tank top, its fitted design perfectly highlighting her ample bust. She paired it with black shorts, confidently showing off her long, slender legs. The tank top was tucked into the waistband of her black shorts, outlining her alluring S-shaped waist and hips. Strangely, she was completely soaked, as if she had just finished swimming. Her long black hair was still dripping wet. Chang Le stared at the stunning beauty before him, momentarily lost in thought… After a moment, Chang Le finally snapped out of it, swallowed hard, and mustered his courage to speak. "Excuse me, miss, could you tell me where apartment 402 is in building eight, unit three?" Seeing Chang Le speak to her, the woman's face showed a hint of surprise, but it vanished in an instant. "Oh, that's my best friend's house. Follow me." The woman said in a low voice and walked away on her own. Seeing this, Chang Le immediately turned his car around and followed.

    Superb! Highly recommended!!! The story is about achieving enlightenment through unorthodox means. The protagonist's "Ten Thousand Souls Banner" can collect the souls of enemies for his own use; he carries a red oil-paper umbrella and collects them wherever he goes. The author's ideas are clear and concise, without any unnecessary details. The Taoist magic and combat techniques described in the book are exceptionally well-written. Even someone like me, who doesn't understand Taoist magic, found it easy to understand and enjoy reading; it's clear the author is incredibly skilled. Furthermore, He An is the kind of person who is vengeful and ruthless, yet also deeply grateful for kindness; Bang Gu seems like a meat-loving child, but the contrast is striking – he can kill someone with a single blow. Every character is well-developed and memorable.

    Reader note

    While it doesn't involve exorcising ghosts in horror movies, this is still an infinite flow novel where you earn power by completing live streams on time. It includes ghost-slaying and combat elements, classic tropes like ghost control, talismans, and martial arts techniques. It's fast-paced, first-person, and I personally think it's a decent read—other books require payment. Unfortunately, it's an eight-year-old book, so the plot is somewhat outdated, and the writing style and prose are different from modern works.
