There Is a Temple on Floating Hope Mountain

[Updated Every Other Day]

A martial powerhouse, hardworking, hypercompetitive female cultivator seeking the Dao x a weak, sharp-tongued, gloomy, ill-fated male ghost

"The great knight-errant serves the nation and its people; the lesser knight-errant serves friends and neighbors."

This is a martial world governed by strict laws, a world where justice is upheld wherever you go.

Once the foremost debater of the Dao, she became a traitor to her sect overnight, unwelcome at its temples and monasteries.

In a daze, Song Shijin was recruited by a group of mysterious con artists and brought to a dilapidated Buddhist temple, where they pushed her onto the seat of abbot and great master.

An illegal organization that would be shut down by the Three Princes' Residence, which oversaw the temples, monasteries, and sects, if they failed to earn merit and achievements.

The immortal leader had fled, leaving the place deserted.

Her fellow disciples were unreliable, and her Daoist friends had come to kill her.

Song Shijin's response was: "Whatever the job, you have to love it."

As the saying goes, hard work is an attitude.

Good and evil karma follow the path in your heart. Let both infamy and fame fade behind your ears.

See how the former top achiever of the sect returns to her old profession and leads a group of mysterious layabouts back to the top of the Dao debates.

[Male Lead]

After nearly biting through his younger brother's throat, problem child Huai Sheng was stripped of his family name by his older brother and dumped at a friend's Buddhist temple.

Xiao was no longer his surname.

But being a lone star of ill fortune was still his fate.

Until Huai Sheng stumbled into Song Shijin's gaze once more.

Calm, open, and kind.

Ji Huaisheng thought that this must be how mortals felt when they worshipped the gods.

The Bodhisattva lowered her eyes, and the believer looked up.

A brief meeting of gazes, then kneeling, then surrender.

A single compassionate glance was enough to bring enlightenment, enough to bring release, enough to make one believe in the bliss of the far shore.

P.S. A fictional setting, written for a female audience. A melodramatic redemption story. The setting is entirely made up, and corrections are welcome. Most importantly, I hope you enjoy reading!
