I, the Iron-Eating Beast, Became the Empress’s Contract Spirit Beast

In a fantasy world, martial artists cultivate by taming beasts. Contract holders and their spirit beasts share cultivation, and the mighty can pluck stars and seize the moon, destroying heaven and earth!

I am Wu Zhi, a chive ground down by the 996 work schedule. Reborn as a giant panda, all I want each day is to get by on my cuteness and wait for death.

After forming a contract with someone, while the other spirit beasts are cultivating, I choose to keep lying flat. I have eating, drinking, recreation, and sleep all down to a fine art. But my contract holder is an intensely ambitious, chuuni princess who often calls herself the Empress.

I am Zhuang Banxue, Empress of the Immortal Dynasty, a mighty cultivator just one step away from proving my Dao and becoming an Immortal Emperor. Using a rare treasure, I was reborn in my youth and swore to reclaim the Immortal Dao without regrets.

After being reborn, I actually formed a contract with a rare spirit beast from the Immortal Realm, a giant panda. As the mightiest spirit beast, I am destined to ascend the throne of the Immortal Emperor!

But my giant panda seems a little lazy. Every day, it does nothing but eat and sleep, or go shopping with the maids. It never cultivates.

There's nothing for it. I'll just have to work hard myself and become an Immortal Emperor.
