Yu Hua had roamed the underworld for years when she suddenly received an appointment from the King of the Underworld: "Jingzhou is short a City God. You have an unusually fine bone structure, so you're the perfect candidate for the position." On her first day as the new City God, Yu Hua stared at the dilapidated City God Temple, at a loss for words.
Since she was already here, what else could she do but get to work?
By day, she subdued demons. By night, she caught ghosts. Keeping up with the times, she started livestreaming fortune-telling.
"Can you bring me romantic luck?"
"I can't bring you romantic luck, but you can attract ghosts. A vengeful spirit is haunting you. Wouldn't you rather save your own life first?"
The living and the dead, still in love. Modern people sure know how to have fun!
"Master, tell me about my financial luck."
"You'll be rich and successful, but after you die, all your money will belong to your neighbor, Old Wang."
What a family drama!
"Master, how's my career looking?"
"Little Mystic, if you don't leave this place soon, I'm afraid I'll have to come collect your soul."
The City God offers a premium soul-collecting service.
Just when she thought her afterlife was finally on track, an unexpected guest arrived at the City God Temple.
The newcomer wore a moon-white robe with a straight collar, his hair ribbon fluttering in the breeze. He seemed like an immortal exiled from ancient times, utterly out of place amid the surrounding mess.
"Wu Sui of Jingzhou, here to ask for a reading."
"What would you like to ask?"
"About my past life and this one."
