Immortal Grandpa Goes Viral!

Back from seclusion, cultivator Leonard stuns the internet—joining his live-streamer great-granddaughter to show off real magic!

Story Guide

Episode 1

A population census pulls a man out of the Kunlun Mountains after more than a century of seclusion. Leonard has achieved his cultivation, but he admits the years cost him his family — and now he wants to make it right. Officials bring him to Lin Chuxue, a struggling live-streamer whose night has just ended badly: a chain has broken, and she's barely holding on. She insists she has no relatives left. Then Leonard introduces himself as her great-grandfather. She's stunned — and the camera hasn't even started rolling yet.

Episode 2

Lin Chuxue demands proof, and Leonard offers it: a photo of his son, Lin Congming, who should be her grandfather. The resemblance lands. She lets him inside, and he sees how small her world has become — though she jokes her old place was worse. The officials note that a relative must take him in, and the alternative is a nursing home. That's when an old family record surfaces, naming her as the descendant who stayed behind. Lin Chuxue kneels and accepts him as her ancestor. She will care for him herself.

Episode 3

Settled in, Leonard declares the apartment too cramped and announces he owns hundreds of courtyard houses — gifts, he says, from the last emperor. Lin Chuxue laughs it off as a century out of date, but he produces old banknotes as proof. She moves them temporarily into her friend Chen Ruolin's villa instead. Chen Ruolin welcomes the old man warmly, and Leonard, grateful for how she's looked after his great-granddaughter, offers her a courtyard house deed as thanks. Then the questions about his real age begin — and his answer keeps climbing.

Episode 4

The new house impresses everyone, and Lin Chuxue teases Leonard about his ever-growing age. He's comfortable, happy to see ordinary people living better than in his day, and she promises he can rest now — she'll be his granddaughter too. Chen Ruolin heads off to settle Lin Chuxue's things while Leonard jokes about inspecting his future great-grandson-in-law. Meanwhile Lin Chuxue goes live from the villa, and viewers immediately assume she's suddenly rich. She explains it's her friend's place, and that she moved to care for her over-hundred-year-old great-grandfather. The chat is skeptical.

Episode 5

Leonard startles everyone by dropping down the stairs instead of walking. Lin Chuxue panics and offers a hospital check; he offers to jump again to prove he's fine. When she explains what live-streaming is, he's baffled — he claims he set wards around the area, so no one should be able to watch. The audience finds him hilarious and showers gifts. Lin Chuxue mentions needing money for a bigger house, and Leonard insists he could sell a couple of his written characters for a fortune. Then there are old photos — including one with the last emperor — that she wants framed, not burned.

Episode 6

Viewership keeps climbing, but the crowd only wants the old man. Lin Chuxue tries to buy time with a song, then a dance; the chat refuses, insisting Leonard should rest — he can barely manage stairs, they think. Then she asks him to grab her tablet from upstairs. He tells her to just toss it down. She worries it'll hit him, but he's unfazed, promising even a bomb wouldn't make him blink. She throws it, and he catches it cleanly. The stream erupts. The old man's happy, and that's what matters.

Episode 7

The catch convinces everyone Leonard is genuinely trained, and Chen Ruolin seizes the moment: she proposes an outdoor live stream built around him as a living history, full of real stories that could make them top-tier. The team rallies behind the idea, and Lin Chuxue declares herself his number-one fan. But the celebration is cut short by a phone call — Chen Ruolin's father orders her to shut the company down and come home to inherit the family business. She refuses flatly and asks for more time. He calls her ungrateful, and someone is sent to close her company by force.

Episode 8

The stream breaks three million viewers and trends, but the audience still chants for the old man. Leonard finally appears, and Lin Chuxue jokes about installing a pole at the new house so he can keep jumping — he hastily promises not to. Gifts pour in. Then Chen Ruolin's father arrives with backup, demanding she open the door. Lin Chuxue greets him nervously as Uncle Chen, while Chen Ruolin stays shut inside. The visitors clearly aren't here to talk nicely, and the tension in the room spikes.

Episode 9

The guests size up the household, and Leonard offers tea. Chen's father pointedly claims the head seat by custom; Leonard, unbothered, moves aside. Then A Long introduces himself — a bodyguard, twenty years of blade work behind him — and challenges the old man, invoking martial arts lore. Leonard's verdict is blunt: the knife is too soft, the man too young. A Long is defeated. Chen's father pulls his daughter aside, shaken by what he's seen, while A Long, fiercely loyal, seems ready to escalate things further downstairs.

Episode 10

Chen's father demands answers about the framed photographs — Rothschild, Tesla, Einstein, all seated with the same old man at the center of the table. Chen Ruolin explains Lin Chuxue had meant to burn them, but she saved them. The revelation lands hard: these historical giants all deferred to Leonard. Chen's father realizes he badly underestimated the old man, and mentions that a former Shanghai underworld boss once knelt to serve him tea. Then panic sets in — A Long is still downstairs, a modern heir of a fierce martial lineage, and he may be about to pick a fight he can't win.

If you like a grandpa who calmly catches whatever the world throws at him, this one's worth a binge — hit play and watch the viewership climb.
