Tales of a Poor Taoist Master's Misadventures

What should you do when your stepbrother, Li Erwang, the brother you've depended on all your life, dies young in a car accident?

The delicate little cabbage (not really), Chu Renmei, answers: Turn him into a zombie!

What should you do when having a zombie for a brother leaves your family drowning in debt?

The self-taught zombie exorcist Chu Renmei answers: Work your butt off and pay it all back! What else, skip out on the debt?

Li Erwang stiffly holds out an apple he picked from who knows where: Happy birthday!

Li Erwang: I really wish I could come back to life. Only then would I stop freezing you whenever we hug.

Also known as "The Years a Poker-Faced, Incompetent Exorcist Girl and Her Dead-Young Zombie Brother, Who's Nothing but a Burden, Spent Depending on Each Other"

No golden finger, no cheats, just an ordinary girl and a corpse, working for a shady organization to pay off their debts in a tearful life story. Ahem.

Blurb One:

Bai Xiwei: Can you see it? There's a face on the sun.

Tan Zhuo: Where? I can't see anything.

Bai Xiwei: That's right, you can't see it. None of you can.

Tan Zhuo really couldn't see it. But even many years later, he could never forget her eyes, reflecting the frost-bright radiance of stars and moon. By then, he had already reclaimed his real name: Xu Zizai.

I stand atop the vast ocean, looking down as you turn a blind eye to the world's true nature.

The gods' wings roar overhead, casting a bloody shadow as they demand their lavish rites of sacrifice.

Who will return?

Blurb Two:

If this were a game, Bai Xiwei would probably be the hidden final boss, an overpowered villain with an absurdly high attack stat and a health bar that never budges.

In the Otherworld, the denizens of the Muddy Hell Realm roam freely, wantonly unleashing floods, storms, droughts, thunder and fire upon this world. Unable to see them, humanity mistakenly regards these calamities as nature's punishment. Only the divine descendants, who carry the blood of the gods, and those blessed by them can witness the real world. The divine descendants wield the authority of priests, maintaining the balance between this world and the Muddy Hell Realm. Hence their name: Blood Priests.

But during her adolescence, this hidden final boss and great villain only wanted to be an utterly ordinary small-town girl, wearing a white dress and sitting on the back of that boy's bicycle, swinging her legs as they rode along.

Instead, she became the White Priest.

There's plenty of scientific research proving that love at first sight is a dreamlike experience caused by an excessive secretion of love hormones, and that its shelf life is three hundred and sixty days at most. But Xu Zizai felt that the love hormones in his body might be burning in a decidedly unscientific way.

Whether he was Tan Zhuo, a naive young punk; Xie Xie, a beat cop who wore an engagement ring and watched over her in secret; or Xu Zizai, the dazzling leader of the Divine Wind Squad in the Special Abilities Department, the fire in his heart burned day and night. Not even death could put it out.

Then let the gods bear witness to our love.
