The Little Master Is Spitting Blood Again [Metaphysics]

The little master, who has lived at a Taoist temple for years, was born frail and sickly, destined to die young. Someone abandoned her at the temple gates to fend for herself. The little master thinks she has it so rough. She has lived three lives. In the first, she kicked the bucket at twelve. In the second, she kicked the bucket at nine. In the third, she's about to bite the dust at the tender age of three... Fortunately, there's always a way forward! The little master not only develops Yin-Yang Eyes, but also gets bound to a System. As long as she completes metaphysics-related missions, helps ghosts fulfill their wishes, and lets go of their obsessions, she can gain more years of life. By coughing up blood, learning all sorts of skills from the ghosts she takes on as masters, and diligently helping them fulfill their wishes, the little master finally manages to hang on until she's eighteen! That's when her long-lost family comes looking for her. The little master packs her things and heads down the mountain with her junior nephew and her chicken junior brother. Her biological parents and twin younger brother don't like her? They even have her registered as her uncle's daughter, making her the daughter of her uncle and aunt? And she ends up with three older brothers, too? The little master looks at her precarious life expectancy, then at her uncle, who has no blood ties to her family and knows nothing about the truth, and her aunt, who looks a little like her. The little master calmly declares: It doesn't matter. You're all fooled. The whole family reunion was planned by me. The truth is, I did it to get a chance at survival. Family is nothing but clouds. Love whoever you want. The little master's rule for life: Everything I do is for more years of life! For the sake of staying alive! (She pulls out a handkerchief and wipes the blood from the corner of her mouth.) [The main plot focuses on family bonds. There is a male lead, but the story won't turn into a romance. Their relationship is more like friendship, and the female lead isn't an invincible power fantasy heroine. She's not perfect or all-powerful. She gets hurt and faces setbacks. Her body really is weak, and she really does cough up blood. A lot.] [The metaphysics elements include plenty of author-created details and things picked up online. Research sticklers, please stay away.] A related novel, I Have People Underground, is looking for readers!
