Thirty Thousand Years of Gods and Ghosts

The red spider lilies at the entrance to the Underworld bloom in dazzling splendor. The demon king Weiyue takes on a female appearance and tricks the mortal Hua Weixue into becoming a spirit envoy who guides ghosts to the afterlife.

This brings Hua Weixue into contact with Dongfang Jimin, a general of ghosts in the Underworld. Then, through a murder case, she meets Zhengze and Ruomu, sacrificial spirits under someone's control, and together they expose the evil Taoist Song Santong, who has been sacrificing the living.

It turns out Song Santong has killed countless people in an effort to resurrect his master, Wen Rugu, who once saved him. He has committed these atrocities according to the methods recorded in the notes titled Flesh and Bone. But the notes came from Dongfang Jimin's tomb, and yet they aren't the copy Dongfang Jimin originally had!

Thus begins the revelation of a terrifying conspiracy by one human and three ghosts!

Along the way, Hua Weixue also meets Qian Cang, a mysterious nine-tailed fox from Tushan; Chenchen, a dragon god sealed by humans inside a temple and made to grant their wishes; and Mumo, a simple-minded mountain god being hunted down...

Later, Hua Weixue discovers why the demon king Weiyue has been insisting that she find the divine bones of the god Weiyue.

She also glimpses the workings of fate and learns that Hua Weixue and Weiyue are doomed to three lifetimes of heartbreak. In this life, the demon king Weiyue willingly walks into a trap to protect Hua Weixue, and her soul scatters.

Hua Weixue, who once longed for an ordinary life, takes up the path of slaying demons and gods in a mortal body.

When all is settled, the pain of losing her beloved remains impossible to ease. So Hua Weixue rebels against fate once more, vowing to change her destiny!

Was their meeting a blessing, or a calamity? Perhaps no one can say for sure anymore.
