The Hidden Jianghu of the City

The programmers tapping away at their keyboards in office towers aren’t just dealing in ones and zeros, and the cleaning ladies pushing their carts aren’t just sweeping up dust. When dusk falls over the city, these ordinary faces shed their disguises and reveal the razor-sharp edge hidden beneath their suits and uniforms. The underworld beyond the Inverted Gate, the mysterious Celestial Court behind Heaven’s Gate, and the truth behind the successive generations of metaphysical masters who ascended to immortality all burst open in the shadows of the concrete jungle. Earth is a “prison hunting ground” in the eyes of otherworldly forces, and the factions of the Three Gates have long coveted the human world. Bai Ling’er is Bai Xi reborn, come to the human world to open Heaven’s Gate. By day, Lu Xuande is a delivery rider in a yellow robe; by night, he dons the same robe to vanquish demons, all while secretly bearing a mission of slaughter imposed by the Inverted Gate. As a rising tide of intrigue seeks a way to open the gates, the delivery guy reveals peerless lightness skills, the security guard draws an ancient demon-subduing blade, and seemingly ordinary office workers enter the hidden martial world one after another. The secret guardians protecting Earth are gathering in the shadows. A battle between good and evil, one that will decide the world’s fate, is about to begin!
