The Corpse-Reaping Demon Venerable

Su Zhengchen is the lowest-ranking corpse retriever at the Court of Judicial Review. He spends his days surrounded by the stench of decay and gets ordered around by his colleagues.

No one knows that his master is Ding Yunpeng, the “Killer King” who once stirred up a storm of bloodshed across the martial world. Even fewer know that, before he died, his master passed down more than the “True Manual of the Way of Lying Low” and a curved saber called White Night, Startling Rain. He also left him a forbidden demonic art from beyond the realms: the Corpse Demon Art!

By day, he is a harmless young coroner, following his master’s advice: “Keep your edge hidden to remain invincible; conceal your wisdom to protect yourself.”

By night, he dons a fearsome blue-faced demon mask and becomes the “Corpse-Retrieving Demon,” haunting mass graves, funeral homes, and battlefields to steal corpses, refine and consume them, and strengthen himself!
