Good news: I ascended to immortality after I died.

Bad news: I still have to work after ascending.

*

Chang Rong accumulated great merit in life and was specially approved to become an immortal. After joining the Maoshan sect, she became the only seedling in a thousand acres, enjoying a small class with N teachers for every student.

Just when she thought she'd spend her days drawing talismans, refining pills, and copying scriptures, she was told that because she'd taken the fast track to ascension, her soul was unstable, so she had to return to the mortal world and perform good deeds to build up merit.

*

And she had to bring along a partner.

*

A huge ball of dazzling white flew past, flapping its wings. Chang Rong impassively peeled a feather off her face. "Does Heaven raise chickens?"

The little immortal who'd come to greet her covered her mouth and laughed. "Daoist Chang, you're so funny. That's your future partner, an exchange student from the Western Heaven~"

Chang Rong: Oh, a bird-person.

*

They start off their very first meeting by beating each other up, and Chang Rong doesn't form the slightest good impression of the angel named Hill.

As they take on one commission after another, they also dig countless holes for each other.

Then one day, Hill suddenly declares with absolute certainty: You like me.

Chang Rong: ...If you're sick, go get treated.

*

Later, Chang Rong realizes that Hill isn't the only one who's sick.

But by then, all she can do is speak to the angel who destroyed her spiritual body for her, her voice full of sorrow and helplessness: I like you.

*

The whole point is to make a good team, so fighting monsters isn't a chore.

Daoist x angel

A dark, vindictive type who always gets even x a one-track mind who loves causing trouble

-----------Pre-release blurb-------------

After being betrayed by her girlfriend of ten years, Chen Yuesheng falls from the top of her industry overnight. Not only is she doxxed and cursed out by people across the internet, but all her old friends in the industry shut their doors to her, too.

Does she learn from the experience and wait for her chance to rise again?

No. Sick of the internet's empty illusions, Chen Yuesheng leaves everything to her lawyer and takes her cat to the countryside to live a lazy life.

But can someone tell her why this distinguished client, as elegant as a rare night-blooming flower, suddenly showed up at her courtyard? She's an unexpected guest, yet acts as if she's come home.

Chen Yuesheng has never cared for such a delicate flower before, and is all flustered.

Feng Shuang helpfully fishes the weeds out of the water. Chen Yuesheng rubs her forehead helplessly: Those are my water caltrop seedlings.

Feng Shuang gets pinched while catching crayfish in the river, and Chen Yuesheng laughs helplessly as she bandages her hand.

Feng Shuang becomes obsessed with spicy stir-fried river snails and burns her tongue. Chen Yuesheng has to rush into town in the middle of the night to buy watermelon frost spray.

On a summer night when the power suddenly goes out, the breeze rustles through the leaves behind the main room. Amid the clamor of cicadas, something seems to be slowly taking root.

But her ex's uninvited arrival shatters everything. The top influencer, with tens of millions of followers, looks at her with red eyes and begs her to come back: Yueliang, I just wanted you to spend more time with me.

Chen Yuesheng looks at the complicated expression on the girl she raised herself, at a loss for words. But Feng Shuang suddenly leans into her arms and says: She's busy. You can find someone else.

Much later, on a winter night with frost and moonlight, Chen Yuesheng smiles tenderly. "The eleventh lunar month is the frost month. Feng Shuang, we're meant to be together."
