Silly blurb:

He Zheng's greatest wish was to make the Movie Emperor Xie, who had humiliated him, kneel and beg for mercy.

His hard work paid off. The Movie Emperor Xie quickly faded from the spotlight, while He Zheng became a top-tier star who practically strutted wherever he went.

His dream had come true.

The Movie Emperor Xie was on his knees, leaning against the edge of the bed as he pleaded, "Honey, come out. It's cold under the bed. I promise I won't hit you."

Serious blurb:

A Taoist priest transmigrates out of a book and becomes Xie Zhi, an actor whose career in the entertainment industry has gone cold.

To make a living, the priest returns to his old profession. From then on, the ghost-hunting world has a mysterious, low-key, and incredibly powerful masked expert.

The expert charges no money for his services, with just one condition: promote Xie Zhi.

After the feng shui of a CEO's home is improved, Xie Zhi signs an annual endorsement deal with the CEO's company the very next day.

After a famous director's bad luck is dispelled, Xie Zhi immediately receives a movie offer.

When a popular web novel gets adapted for the screen and nobody is right for the role of the Taoist priest, Xie Zhi says, "I'll play myself."

Xie Zhi rises to fame again and returns to the top.

One day, He Zheng, a top-tier star, comes to the expert with a request.

Xie Zhi quickly puts on his mask and asks in confusion, "Young friend, with such good fortune and a bright future ahead, what more could you ask for?"

He Zheng sneers. "Please stay away from Xie Zhi. The person I've set my sights on is under my protection."
