The Fragile Ghost King Seeks Survival Online

In the second century after Li Chu died, a sleazy ghost came to her and said he wanted to take her back to become the Ghost King. Li Chu refused on the spot. She'd spent two hundred years as a wandering ghost, eating, drinking, and having fun with the other ghosts every day, swindling and tricking people.

It's only the gods of Heaven. Fine, I'll take them on. Wait a second! Keep the best-looking one for me. Theme: The underworld has KPIs too.
