The Investiture of the Gods: Chang'e's Extreme Makeover!

Girls, if you happen to pass by, please [collect] this. Thanks for your support~

[Blurb]

A peerless beauty is sent to Chaoge. Instead of becoming the king's beloved consort on account of her beauty, she becomes a trusted minister of King Zhou?!

A Chan sect master comes down the mountain to take on a disciple. Because he didn't consult the child's parents, he is denounced by 'ignorant mortals' as a 'kidnapper'?!

A three-year-old boy is born from a spiritual pearl. With no parents and no need to have his bones scraped out, he becomes a great marshal with his own forces, joining Zhou to overthrow Shang?!

A lecherous dwarf forces himself on a woman, but the beauty in his arms turns out to be an elderly woman who helps him 'achieve marital bliss'?!

It all began with Chang'e, a human immortal who was reborn...

In the Three Realms Chang'e remembered from her previous life, the immortals became so obsessed with romances between immortals and mortals that they descended to the mortal world one after another, forgetting their duty to protect all living beings. With no gods to keep the monsters in check, the mortal realm was overrun with demons, and the people suffered with nowhere to turn for help. This led to an age of spiritual decline, in which the spiritual energy of heaven and earth dissipated and the gods fell into a deep slumber.

After being reborn, Chang'e set out to keep the Three Realms from meeting the same fate in this life.

First, she held the Celestial Court's civil service exam to select talented gods who truly cared for all living beings. That way, even if the negligent gods from her previous life descended to the mortal realm again, the Celestial Court would still have gods to call upon, and the people would still have gods to pray to.

She also made public the arduous history of Yunhua and Yang Tianyou, the first immortal-mortal romance in the Three Realms. This warned the gods not to entertain reckless thoughts or secretly consort with mortals, and informed the people that the seemingly wonderful prospect of gaining good fortune for one's whole family by consorting with a god carried many hidden dangers: it would bring karmic retribution and a thunderbolt from the heavens...

Once everything was done, she watched the gods of the Celestial Court work diligently, and her brows relaxed as she smiled.

The dangers that could have led to an age of spiritual decline had all been eliminated. Surely now she could rest easy and return to her peaceful life as an idle immortal in Guanghan Palace~

Who could have guessed...

What?! Her good friend Yunhua, newly returned to the ranks of the immortals, says there was more to her immortal-mortal romance, and an unknown power may be plotting to overthrow the Three Realms?!

What?! The Three Realms are on the brink of life and death, yet the immortals of the Chan and Jie sects are fighting each other to the death over a scroll called the Investiture of the Gods?!

What?! Evil forces are threatening to bring disaster upon the mortal realm, but the factions in the Celestial Court are still locked in endless infighting?!

"..."

Chang'e was furious!!!

Why are we still fighting this Investiture of the Gods calamity???

Everyone, conserve your strength and unite against our enemies!!!

○ We recommend reading the first, completed novel in this series, Chang'e Rejects Romance Between Immortals and Mortals~

It covers Chang'e's creation of the Celestial Court's civil service system after being reborn, her introduction of law classes, and her use of the first immortal-mortal romance as a cautionary example against becoming lovesick~

Of course, you can still [read this story without it]~

○ Many original settings have been added to tie together the various myths. This does not completely follow the original works or history, so please bear with us~

Please add the stories in the author's collection to your to-read list~ Many thanks!
