Modern office worker Lin Chuan stayed up late working on a PPT, only to wake up as Xiao Shunzi, a lowly palace slave tasked with delivering hot water to the palaces. Just as he memorized the routes, Empress Li— a survivor of the former dynasty with hidden ambitions to overthrow the court— cornered him in a corridor. She threatened to frame him for stealing her phoenix hairpin (and have him beheaded) unless he spied on the emperor. Desperate, Lin Chuan hid in the imperial garden’s rockery, where he encountered the poisoned, dying Xuanyi Zhenren— a legendary immortal cultivator said to control qi and summon thunder. The Zhenren detected Lin Chuan’s “boundless soul” (a unique trait of transmigrators) and used his last strength to transfer 50 years of cultivation and the *Xuanyi Manual* to him, dying mid-sentence: “The one who killed me is…” Now, Lin Chuan is trapped: he must handle the empress’s demands for the emperor’s movements, hide his ability to crush porcelain bowls, investigate the Zhenren’s killer, and worst of all— when delivering tea to the emperor today, the emperor stared at him and asked, “Xiao Shunzi, why do you look so radiant?” His sallow skin from yesterday is now glowing— did the cultivation boost even improve his complexion?!
