Synopsis

“The living must not wander into the mass grave, and the dead must not disturb Mr. Chen.” This old saying has been passed down in Chenjia Town for decades. Chen Hui is Mr. Chen’s grandson, but he scoffs at his grandfather’s arts of yin and yang and wants nothing more than to be an ordinary college student. That is, until zombies attack the village at night. Forced to take up a peachwood sword and open the ancient book titled The Dao, he wields the family’s ancestral divine weapon, the Heaven-and-Earth Fire Sword. By day, he lives an ordinary student life; by night, he becomes an exorcist who slays evil spirits. After joining a government organization, he begins living a double life. The three great sects of the occult world and the Su family have been locked in a thousand-year feud. He unites the three sects to stand against the Su family, end the ancient feud, and protect the peace of the city.

Supernatural, Urban, Taoist Priests, Taoist Arts, Taoist Sects. No Weird Dungeon Arcs

Taoist arts and Taoist sects, but no bizarre dungeon arcs. I've had enough of these bizarre stories lately. The writing is unbearably ridiculous. If ghosts can be killed by just any random thing, then they aren't ghosts anymore.
