[Exorcist Clan] [Spirit-Summoning Witch] [Corpse Driving] [Spirit Weapons]
The bitter feud between two sorcerer families brings them together once more amid a calamity wrought by nature and human hands.
Though fate had assigned them to govern the realms of yin and yang separately, they choose to join forces for the greater good of their country.
In 1932, the nation of Jiali had been developing secret biological weapons and infiltrating the imperial capital for six years. After years of war, the capital lay in ruins.
To drive out the foreign enemy, Jing Xufan, son of a general from the imperial capital, discovers that the direct descendant of the Shan family, Shan Lingyou, is a witch who commands sorcery and can resurrect the walking dead.
Biological weapons clash with supernatural corpse warriors. In a battle burdened by past sins and fought for justice, who will emerge victorious?
The Ji family's rules fill sixty-one pages. Yet the moment Ji Ruowen meets Shan Lingyou, he has already broken the ten gravest prohibitions.
The Shan family ancestral precepts say that when you meet someone from the Ji family, you should keep your distance, like a cat avoiding a mouse.
But after meeting Ji Ruowen, Shan Lingyou no longer blames the cat for its nature.
Instead, she resents that she cannot be an ordinary person.
I consider myself upright and incorruptible, though I have done many things that defy Heaven and reason.
Even if I face the eighteenth level of hell, I can still walk in with my head held high.
Only after meeting you did I begin to resent that I cannot be an ordinary person.
You said we were born to walk opposite paths, that you were meant to roam alone as a wandering spirit, with no grave to call your own anyway.
How annoying. My family's duty is to rid the human world of ghosts and monsters, so I'll secretly keep one. Surely that doesn't count as defying tradition.
