It's a metaphysical novel, no romantic pairing, a strong female lead story where the female lead is uniquely beautiful. It includes fortune telling, face reading, ghost exorcism—everything you could imagine! It's good, presented in a live-stream format, and the plot is captivating. You can learn a lot from this novel.

   No live streaming, no romantic pairings, all female leads are very strong, small-episode storylines, no entanglements like the real or fake heiresses in the entertainment industry. The first book features a female sect leader who transmigrates a thousand years into the future; the female lead is an all-around powerhouse and runs a shop. The second book is more lighthearted and fun; the female lead runs a stall and there's plenty of gossip—highly recommended for those who enjoy lighthearted entertainment. The third book is also lighthearted; the female lead faces everything with composure. The fourth book mainly combines metaphysical stalls with crime-solving; the female lead is a spirit maiden born on Linghan Mountain who descends the mountain to experience love, hate, anger, infatuation, and resentment through cultivation. The fifth book is about ancient metaphysics, lighthearted revenge against villains; the female lead is a noblewoman from a noble family who was separated from her husband—not a real or fake heiress. The sixth book is a plot-driven, fast-paced story; the female lead is probably the strongest, but it's not mindless fun; there are ensemble characters. The seventh book features a female lead who is the abbess of a Taoist temple, running a stall in a park while also repairing and revitalizing the temple; those who enjoy this type of story can give it a try.

    This book is amazing! I absolutely love it. The female protagonist, Shi Qing, has a special space where she can receive guests. She's from the modern world, but her space can accommodate people from other worlds, allowing her to make transactions with them. Each transaction increases her strength. The book covers supernatural events, strange occurrences, and even some cultivation-related events. Wow! There's so much to say, it's hard to explain everything. If you're interested, just read it! I highly recommend it. Hurry up and read it! I really want it to become a hit!

    This is an incredibly awesome novel. The female protagonist, relying on her silver tongue and indomitable spirit, transforms from a little girl haunted by ghosts into the world's number one female exorcist. But towards the end, you'll regret not having a romantic partner! The female protagonist is fearless and has a great mental state; one moment she'll make you a little scared, the next she'll be laughing your head off. She's anything but weak; she always tries to protect herself and everyone she cares about with her own strength, and she's not a saint.
