Chu Zhao, the young master of the Chu family in the capital, is infamously a "troublemaker"—spending every day hugging a wine jar to visit brothels, losing all his money gambling with rogues, even his father chases him with a crutch, calling him a "black sheep." But no one knows this "good-for-nothing" is actually a modern office worker reborn. In his past life, he watched the Chu family be executed for treason framed by a powerful minister. Reborn, he deliberately acts foolish to disarm enemies: secretly practicing ancient mystical cultivation while collecting ironclad evidence of the minister's collaboration with the enemy. When the minister's son comes with thugs to provoke him, he smiles and throws out account books to expose military rations smuggling. When his contracted divine beast, little Taotie, clings to his leg begging for sugar-coated haws, he complains, "Are you a divine beast or a glutton?" but quietly uses spiritual power to help it take human form. However, the deeper he digs, the more he realizes the past truth is far beyond collaboration—an even more terrifying force is spying on the Chu family's inheritance…
