[Crime + Supernatural + A Little Martial Arts + Youthful Passion]
(No idiots, no romance, complete)
Long Yi said, “Well, you damn woman, you're pretty hard to kill.” He clenched both fists, circulating his qi through his body. White vapor burst around him, and the hem of his clothes fluttered.
Wang Yinan frowned. “Why do I smell a corpse?”
After lighting incense, Shi Xue saw a canopied carriage drawn by four horses gradually approaching from far across the sea. Two white lanterns hung on either side, and clear bells jingled at the horses' necks.
An Yu felt something drip onto the back of her neck. She wiped it with her hand and saw bright red blood on her fingers.
Long Yi is a mischievous, inexperienced young Taoist who loves a challenge despite being out of his depth. He has exceptional skills and a natural talent for martial arts. Armed with the battered Ghost-Slaying Blade, he hunts demons, slays monsters, and exterminates ghosts. He never expected to encounter one bizarre corpse after another on his first journey down the mountain. Shi Xue was born with spiritual powers that let her sense death, glimpse the future, and distinguish ghosts from gods, but all she wants is an ordinary life and the chance to lie flat. Wang Yinan is an upright young police officer, a handsome rich kid who could rely on his father and his looks, yet instead uses his cool, clever mind to crack major cases. But the baffling case of the repeatedly disappearing young boys has him stumped. An Yu, a new young detective, is sweet and innocent but brimming with a sense of justice. She runs into a difficult case as soon as she starts the job, and has no choice but to ask her cousin Shi Xue to help solve it. While pursuing her inner demons, Shi Xue meets the young Taoist Long Yi. Fascinated by Shi Xue's spiritual powers, Long Yi chases after her, insisting she become his junior apprentice. He ends up joining the case-solving team.
And so the four of them set out on a ghostly trail, pursuing spirits and solving supernatural cases…
The pace is tight and the story is fascinating
