The Paper Effigy Shop: From the Start, the Eerie School Beauty Drains My Yang Energy

The Spirit-Paper Shop Grandpa left behind had one rule: never open after midnight, and never entertain the living. On the third day after Yang Ding took over the shop, the school beauty showed up late at night, drenched from head to toe. “Boss, I want you to make me a paper effigy that can sing, dance, rap, and play basketball, like someone who’s trained for at least two and a half years.” The goji berry tea Yang Ding had just brewed nearly sprayed out of his mouth. Hadn’t Lin Xiaowan and her family been slaughtered seven days ago? Who, or what, was standing in front of him? Just as Lin Xiaowan transformed into a vengeful ghost and lunged at him... [Ding! Yin Runner System activated!] [Host’s yang energy is excessive and clashes with yin energy] [Countdown to self-destruction: 10, 9, 8...] Yang Ding had no time to explain. He steeled himself and shouted, “Female apparition, wait! I have a pure-yang body, a potent tonic! Come and absorb me!” The eerie school beauty froze. After hesitating for three seconds, she instinctively leaned in... [Congratulations, Host. You have merged with the Yin Runner’s divine office. A welcome gift awaits!] From then on, Yang Ding used paper effigies to commune with spirits in his left hand and wielded an arrest warrant to capture ghosts in his right. In a world where the road between yin and yang had been severed, he became the sole middleman on the road to the Yellow Springs. But as his cultivation grew, the yang energy of his pure-yang body became ever more concentrated. What was he supposed to do when one or two female apparitions couldn’t absorb it all...?
