A fantasy episodic tale about catching demons, falling in love, and saving the world.
A Demon Venerable who wants to laze around but can never quite put his feet up, as the shou x A highly dedicated Heavenly Master gong who is determined to exterminate demons and evil.
When the Xu family found Xu Si, he was a poor resident doctor in training, wearing a white coat and helping a newly admitted patient turn over and wash up.
It turned out Xu Si was the only heir of the Xu family of the capital, a family of great renown. After his father died, the family had mistaken someone else for their grandson. Now they had discovered the mix-up and wanted Xu Si to return and claim his place in the family.
His good-for-nothing uncle grinned and told him that even a little of the capital Xu family's wealth would be enough to keep the two of them fed and clothed for the rest of their lives.
Xu Si nodded, immediately took off his white coat, grabbed a sack, and headed back to the Xu family.
The Xu family was so rich that it surpassed anything he could imagine. It was true that he could dig up a single plant and have enough food for himself and his uncle for a month.
But though the Xu family was huge, not a single blade of grass there belonged to him.
The fake young master, who had been mistaken for the Xu heir, was still the darling of the family. He was eloquent, talented, and graceful in every situation. A seemingly insurmountable wall stood between him and Xu Si.
Dragging his sack along, Xu Si crouched in a corner and looked at the lonely orchid in front of him. His eyes quietly reddened.
He had forgotten to bring a shovel...
Xu Si had thought that he had gained a group of relatives bound to him by blood.
But they said he was riddled with viruses, that traditional Chinese medicine was a scam, and that it was beneath them.
So he used a few silver needles to extend his great-grandmother's life by three years and cured the headache his grandfather had suffered from for five years.
But then they started criticizing the way Xu Si dressed, saying he was inferior to the fake young master in every way, and that a child raised by one's own parents was always closer to them.
Xu Si didn't know how to dress himself. Standing before a mirror, his yin-yang eyes throbbed with pain. He saw demonic energy swirling all around him, with monsters and ghosts gathering and dancing wildly, all scrambling to devour his flesh and soul.
