Dread of the City God

Du Weicheng is rushed into the operating room, barely conscious. She overhears that she’s been poisoned—then everything goes black. She awakens not in a hospital, but at the Lizhou City God Temple, surrounded by souls waiting to cross over. Lost and confused, she is suddenly pulled from the line by the City God himself. He reveals that her body still lives, and offers her a chance to return—if she accepts his mission and becomes his earthly envoy. With no other way back, Weicheng agrees. Now she must fulfill her duties in the world of the living to earn her second chance at life.
