I Save the Underworld with Malatang

The blurb for my upcoming novel, I Use Top-Tier Superpowers to Be a Slacker, is below. Please add it to your favorites!

[Blurb]

A new malatang shop has opened on Yellow Springs Street. It claims that three bowls will get you across the Naihe Bridge, while five will make your reincarnation feel like a fairy's. Every ghost who's tried it swears by its effects.

From what everyone can tell, the shop's owner is no ordinary person, either. He cooks malatang with rare heavenly treasures, employs the River Naihe from the underworld as a server, and even shares a table with the Great Emperor of Fengdu. He must be one formidable ghost.

Wei Hui: Nonsense. I'm not a ghost. I'm just an ordinary chef with amazing cooking skills and the tiniest bit of a background.

The little shop grows more famous by the day, its reputation spreading throughout the underworld and drawing all sorts of strange and unusual customers. Wei Hui senses a whiff of conspiracy around some of them. To protect the underworld, he has no choice but to put down his cooking utensils and return to his old line of work.

A ghost in a red dress comes to eat with her companion. When they meet again, she nearly turns into a vengeful spirit.

Her companion howls in despair. Wei Hui doesn't even look over. He snaps his fingers, hoists the ghost into the air, and says, "The thief cries 'stop thief.' What a racket."

A bold little demon who forced its way through the Ghost Gate comes to the shop seeking medicine, with a ghost officer chasing it all over the place.

Wei Hui grabs the demon with one hand and heads straight for the demon realm. "One flying knife costs two meals. Remember to pay me back."

A cult that treats ghost lives like weeds and dreams of attaining immortality takes Wei Hui hostage. He pulls out a divine artifact and leaves the entire underworld stunned as he slaughters his way through them.

"Who gave you the nerve? In the presence of a god, a little ghost dares call itself an immortal!"

Just as Wei Hui begins to quell the turmoil in the underworld, war breaks out again.

His customers become sacrifices in Heaven's and the cult's attempt to annex the underworld. The usually kind and friendly owner's expression changes. His every move turns vicious as he goes head-to-head with Heaven:

"You damned piece of trash! I let you off the hook for what happened back then. Today, I'll settle both old and new scores!"

The underworld's local specialty: the unofficial flagship malatang shop.

Running a shop is a hobby. Saving the underworld is the real job.

* The shou is older than the gong. One is an ancestor, the other is the ancestor of the ancestor (an unconventional age-gap romance).

* The shou is the strongest in the story, even when injured.

* No forced power balancing.

A loyal dog of a gong who loves to act pitiful and give off a tea-like vibe & a gentle, cool-headed shou with overwhelming combat prowess

I Use Top-Tier Superpowers to Be a Slacker

Pei Tiangu is alive again.

He's not reborn, and he hasn't taken over a corpse. Ten years after he died, someone unknown found him and brought him back to life.

Reborn, he starts out with an apartment, a smart brain, and a job offer, but no money.

Well, since he's alive, he might as well make the best of it.

He can't afford nutrition supplements, so he'll have to get a job. Gritting his teeth and steeling himself, Pei Tiangu digs out the job offer he tossed into the recycle bin the moment he saw it after coming back to life.

People are iron, rice is steel. What's wrong with doing a bit of donkey work?

Ten years later, Pei Tiangu sets foot in the Supernatural Affairs Bureau again. With his superpower, "At My Disposal," which he hid for two lifetimes, he uses copy and paste to demonstrate the art of slacking to his heart's content.

A meeting? Sure!

Before he died, the meeting couldn't start unless he showed up.

After coming back to life, he slips in right on time every time, copies "Weakened" onto himself, then hides in a corner pretending not to hear or speak. He misses every important point, but never a scrap of gossip.

Fieldwork? No problem!

Before he died, he could smash a contaminant with one punch and clear out a contaminated zone on his own.

After coming back to life, he pulls out a copied "Mimicry" and crouches in the bushes as soon as he reaches a contaminated zone. He gets out of breath if he runs and collapses if he moves. If there's a stretcher available, he'll never walk.

Determined to spend fifty years slacking off at work and half his life living like a couch potato, Pei Tiangu takes on countless field assignments in a thoroughly half-hearted manner.

That is, until disaster threatens the Alliance and his identity is exposed. Once again, Pei Tiangu becomes the focus of the entire Alliance.

As the only genius who might be able to stand up to the enemy, Xiao Pei waves his hands in protest.

He's just an office worker who can't lift a thing or fight! Sending an office worker to the front lines is asking for divine retribution!

As for who would strike him down, don't worry about it. He never said he only had one superpower.

Ten years ago, the Alliance had a genius who wielded great power at a young age, but died while trying to desert. In life, he was cunning and ruthless, with a powerful lightning ability and formidable combat skills. He struck down many people. Once word of his desertion got out, his reputation collapsed, and the genius became everyone's target. Even his body vanished without a trace.

Ten years later, Pei Tiangu opens his eyes in a luxury apartment in the heart of the Alliance's capital.

You little brats who schemed against your grandpa in my last life, your grandpa's back!

Everyone in the Alliance knows that Wen Feichi, head of the Combat Division at the Supernatural Affairs Bureau, climbed the ranks through ruthless means. On the eve of the great battle ten years ago, he killed his longtime friend, the young genius Pei Tiangu, who had defected in the middle of the fight. Wen Feichi single-handedly saved the Alliance from disaster and rose rapidly through the ranks.

Ten years later, a new employee who looks just like the genius of old joins the Joint Command Division. Director Wen borrows him indefinitely, and everyone starts taking bets on whether he'll become Director Wen's next stepping stone to promotion.

The subject of the bet is currently pinned against an office door, being kissed senseless by the famously cold and heartless Director Wen.

Pei Tiangu: "I'll open the door right now and let everyone see what the supposedly cold and heartless Director Wen looks like when he's on his knees!"

Wen Feichi: "Go ahead. Just promise to register our marriage tomorrow. I won't charge them to watch."

Pei Tiangu has to stay at his superior's house during a mission. He watches in disbelief as Wen Feichi unlocks the door to his own luxury apartment in the heart of the city.

Pei Tiangu gapes. "Wen Feichi, are you a pervert?!"

A scheming, fake-cold male ghost gong & a gutsy, ruthless, popular slacker shou
