Having transmigrated and become a Little Taoist Priest of Ping’an Temple, Xiang Jiannan feels that his life is quite tragic.

Since transmigrating, all sorts of things that don’t align with his original worldview have come his way, especially that Master in the Taoist temple, who is definitely clueless about how much he’s screwing people over.

Let’s see how a Little Taoist Priest strives to grow while shedding tears of frustration.

***

Xiang Jiannan, a modern soul mysteriously transmigrated into the body of a young Taoist priest in the remote town of Ping’an, just wants a quiet life. He’s stuck with a master who’s more interested in making a quick buck than imparting wisdom, and the local temple, Ping’an Temple, is more dilapidated than divine. But peace is short-lived. When a local family claims their “Peace Talismans” are useless against a haunting, Xiang Jiannan is reluctantly drawn into a series of increasingly bizarre events.

As he investigates, Xiang Jiannan discovers that Ping’an Town is a hotbed of strange occurrences, from restless spirits to a pig demon with a penchant for collecting debts. With his master’s help (or hindrance), and his own surprisingly potent, though often unpredictable, abilities, Xiang Jiannan must navigate this supernatural chaos. He finds himself forming an uneasy alliance with a mysterious agent from the Fu Mo Si, a government agency dedicated to suppressing the paranormal, and facing off against a variety of colorful characters, both human and otherwise.

Along the way, Xiang Jiannan grapples with the meaning of cultivation, the effectiveness of his master’s questionable methods, and the very nature of good and evil. His journey is a blend of comedic mishaps, genuine moments of terror, and a deep dive into a world where the line between the mundane and the magical is constantly blurred. He’ll be forced to question everything he thought he knew about Taoism, about his master, and even about himself. And through it all, he must learn to trust his instincts, even if they lead him down the most unexpected, and often hilarious, paths.
