The Strongest Insider in Strange Tales from a Chinese Studio

Su Li always thought he was living the life of an ancient noble young master. Though both his parents had died, his family doted on him, and he came from a prestigious background. That was until his fifteenth birthday. With a pair of yin-yang eyes, he saw the world in an entirely different way. A pale figure at the bottom of a well, its pupils a ghastly green and its smile sinister. A night demon with a livid face and fangs, staring through the window. A gigantic snake demon baring poisonous fangs, ready to devour its next victim... With demons and monsters setting their sights on him, Su Li trembled in fear. But Su Li soon discovered that although his script had changed, he still had powerful connections to rely on. His sword-immortal uncle slew a ghost with one stroke, cutting an imposing figure. "Yan Chixia of Mount Shu is here! Who dares harm my nephew?" His aunts smiled like flowers as they surrounded the monsters. "You can't just lay a hand on anyone from my Qingqiu Fox Clan." His maternal uncle, the City God, glared like lightning and berated the crooked ghost official. "How did you slander Su Li? Confess at once!" The great demon of Black Mountain shed his murderous aura and patted Su Li's head. "With me here, no one at the demon market will dare bully you." A certain Sage watched the Mirror of Heaven and Earth from beyond the heavens and told his beloved disciple, "Don't worry. I'll make sure he's well looked after." With his powerful protectors watching over him, Su Li wielded incense-offering merit and rose all the way to immortality! This book is also known as "Those Years I Was Everyone's Favorite in Liaozhai" and "This Guy May Be Weak, but He Has Tons of Powerful Backers" "The Ultimate Second-Generation Heir" and "What's It Like to Have Immortal Parents?" PS: 1. The sweet-talking little boy protagonist's everyday life as everyone's favorite. The author loves him, and this is a feel-good power fantasy. 2. The protagonist mainly follows the path of becoming a god through the worship of incense, but develops along multiple routes, with an extremely powerful golden finger.
