Ancient qi cultivator x high-tech inventor
A fierce collision between science and the supernatural unexpectedly sparks romance.
[2]
The ancient qi cultivator You Xuangong rises from his coffin in the mysterious and dazzling world of the future. Seeing modern technology, miraculous as it seems, everywhere, he is left dumbfounded.
Flying through the sky, traveling a thousand miles by voice, summoning wind and rain: the supernatural powers seekers of the Dao dream of mastering can now be used by everyone!?
The gifted qi cultivator, once devoted solely to training, becomes hopelessly addicted to the internet and short videos, and falls head over heels for milk tea and fried chicken.
Relying on his extraordinary ability to read qi, You Xuangong thrives in modern society as he searches for scattered Mystic Pearls.
But nobody told him that the search for Mystic Pearls came with a romance on the side!
The first time he meets his destined partner, You Xuangong scoffs: "We seek the Dao between heaven and earth. How could we be caught up in petty romance?"
Some time later
Late-night forum post: [Help! My destined partner thinks I'm a con artist who does magic tricks. What should I do? Waiting for replies, urgent!]
Top comment: Another couple showing off. Kick them out!

You Xuangong gazes up at the heavens. The moon remains unchanged, while satellites fill the night sky. He can't help marveling at the power of the modern world: people can make stars with their bare hands and reshape the constellations through human effort.
It seems everyone nowadays has supernatural powers. So what does the Dao he spent his life seeking amount to?
He sits cross-legged on the roof, looking as if he has seen through the world and lost all hope.
An Jin visits for one day, then two. By the third day, he can't take it anymore.
"Want braised chicken?"
You Xuangong sniffs.
"...Extra cilantro."
