The Metaphysical Sect Leader Walks Among Mortals

share time: 2026-02-20 00:41:24

Shen Qingtang, leader of a hermit metaphysical sect, is forced to leave the mountain due to a millennium-old sect vow. Upon stepping into the mortal world, she immediately encounters Gu Zhao, a "frail young master" being chased. She tries to shake him off, but Gu Zhao clings to her with the excuse of "repaying her life-saving grace"—he not only moves in with her but also always hits her "metaphysical blind spots": organizing her case files when she hates trouble, and making sweet soup every day when she dislikes noise. As they solve strange cases together, like the haunting in the capital and the anomaly in the royal tomb, Shen Qingtang discovers: this "frail young master" is actually the crown prince with hidden prowess, and the "sect key" she's searching for is hidden in the kingdom he's fighting for. When a metaphysical master meets a prince pretending to be weak, will she expose his disguise first, or will he melt her cold heart first?
