The Last Taoist Woman

[Supernatural + episodic stories + alternate historical setting + folk tales of the strange + a mutually devoted 1v1 romance] My name is Zhang Xiaowu, and I’m a Taoist priestess. Before I was born, my mother mysteriously gave birth to four man-eating monsters! To save everyone’s lives, my grief-stricken parents had my master deal with them. The strange circumstances of my birth destined me for an extraordinary life. After accidentally subduing a strange man, I found myself caught up in one bizarre incident after another: a locust spirit, a soul trapped in the resentment of a pagoda tree, a dream within a dream, a feng shui poison master… The events unfolded like scenes in a painted scroll. Only later did I understand that every incident was merely ink on the scroll, and I was the one holding the brush.
