The Laid-Back Little Taoist Is Forced to Become an Immortal

The next book will be My Balcony Connects to the Ancient World. If you're interested, feel free to add it to your collection.

Tang Xiaoming is a young Taoist priest with innate Yin-Yang Eyes. As his master likes to say, he was born for this line of work. But in modern society, making a living as a Taoist isn't easy, so he has no choice but to take on a side job and go with the times by becoming a streamer.

Fans in the livestream: "Half-Immortal, are you really a Taoist priest?"

Tang Xiaoming holds up a little booklet. "Licensed and ready to work."

Tang Xiaoming never imagined that one day he would be haunted by a ghost. The ghost is breathtakingly beautiful, beyond compare. Unfortunately, he's a man. He says he's a fangshi from the Qin Dynasty, and he sought Tang Xiaoming out because he needs the merit and fortune Tang Xiaoming has accumulated to help him cultivate into an immortal.

Naturally, Tang Xiaoming doesn't believe him. But he really can't win in a fight, so he has no choice but to let the ghost stay by his side. Their days pass with the ghost helping him catch ghosts and mooching off his good fortune.

Before long, Tang Xiaoming reaches his goal ahead of schedule. Just when he's ready to lie flat and live the lazy life, trouble suddenly finds him at every turn. Then he learns that, as a man of great virtue in his tenth lifetime, he's a walking delicacy for demons: any monster that eats him can ascend to immortality.

Tang Xiaoming: "Even Tang Monk had four disciples. What have I got?"

Si Jinshu: "Better to rely on yourself than on others."

Tang Xiaoming: "..."

To stay alive, Tang Xiaoming has to give up on lying flat and work himself to the bone cultivating. At last, he becomes an immortal, only to discover Si Jinshu's true identity.

Tang Xiaoming: "If I don't cultivate, I'm living off someone else. If I do cultivate, I'm still living off someone else. What's the difference?"

Si Jinshu: "None."

Tang Xiaoming: "..."

Blurb for My Balcony Connects to the Ancient World:

Ai Fanghan has a secret: his balcony connects to the ancient world, a world of cultivation. Just like in the novels, people there can use magic and fly wherever they go. The catch is that whenever he visits, he turns into a dog, and those awful people keep petting and picking him up.

There's only one exception: Chu Weixi.

According to the others, Chu Weixi is a once-in-a-thousand-years genius. He established his foundation at thirteen and reached the Golden Core stage at fifteen, with even greater talent than the legendary True Immortal Huaixu. His only flaw is that he has no sense of human kindness and is obsessed with martial arts.

Ai Fanghan is curious about him, so he sneaks into Chu Weixi's room. He nearly gets killed and turned into hotpot. From then on, Chu Weixi goes on Ai Fanghan's blacklist.

It isn't until Chu Weixi's entire family is wiped out and his cultivation is destroyed that Ai Fanghan risks his life to bring him back to the modern world. Only then does their relationship gradually begin to change.

Chu Weixi was a genius, but his possession of a priceless treasure brought disaster upon him. His entire family was wiped out, and his cultivation was destroyed, leaving him crippled. He thought he was doomed, but a dog saved his life and dragged him to an unknown world. There, he turned into a cat, while the dog became a handsome young man.

In the modern world, Ai Fanghan grabs the cat by the scruff. "I don't care if you're a once-in-a-thousand-years genius or a once-in-ten-thousand-years genius. In my house, I make the rules."

In the ancient world, Chu Weixi grabs the dog's leg. "Stay right here. You're not allowed to go anywhere."

Theme: Good is rewarded with good, and evil with evil.
