Amateur Demigod

Xie Lingya unexpectedly inherited ownership of a modest Taoist shrine tucked between bustling city streets. To one side lies a thriving shopping district, while the other opens to a public plaza, with a lively produce market just beyond. Despite its prime location, the temple remains eerily quiet, its donation box nearly empty. The ambitious dream? To transform this forgotten sanctuary into the most renowned spiritual haven, where incense smoke rises in thick, fragrant clouds.

Xie Lingya, though lacking official permits for ghost-hunting, fortune-telling, talisman-drawing, or feng shui consultations, carries an unshakable conviction—he’s no ordinary mortal. With unwavering confidence, he declares himself something far beyond human, a being touched by divinity. The path ahead is unclear, but one thing’s certain: this self-proclaimed demigod won’t let obscurity define his temple’s fate.

The neighborhood bustles with life, yet the shrine stands as an overlooked relic. But Xie Lingya sees potential where others see decay. His determination burns brighter than any ceremonial flame, ready to rewrite the temple’s story—one miracle, one believer at a time.

Whether through sheer willpower or otherworldly intervention, the once-silent halls will echo with chants and prayers again. The journey from neglect to reverence begins now, guided by a man who believes he’s halfway to immortality.
