Ever since she was young, Si Zhao was cast into the Evil Ghost Path by her master. After eighty-one years of arduous cultivation, she finally returns to the mortal world.
The Evil Ghost Path opens, and ten thousand ghosts cry out. Si Zhao is the loudest of them all.
“I’m going to turn evil! I’m going to get revenge! I’m going to lay waste to the living and bring the Ghost Path back to the mortal world!”
Later, after she passes out from hunger beneath a bridge with not a coin to her name and remains unconscious for three days, Si Zhao is forced to become the strongest ghost-hunting wage slave of the twenty-first century.
“This is the number-one evil ghost in the Record of a Hundred Ghosts. Ordinary people mustn’t go near it.”

What’s our motto?
Hunt the nastiest ghosts, charge the highest fees, cultivate the wildest path, and date the hottest people.
Later, the most exhausted ghost hunter of the twenty-first century meets its richest CEO.
