[Strong female lead + independent heroine + no romance]
“If you don’t understand the laws of the underworld, I happen to know a little about thunder magic.”
In the Daxia calendar, the century-long pact came to an end. Spiritual qi gradually revived, and evil forces emerged from the earth. A blood-robed female ghost wept through the night, a fierce blue-faced ghost roamed by day, fox demons bewitched the world, dragon veins stirred, a mass grave seethed with resentment, and a drought demon ravaged the land.
Zuo Yi, an orphan born in the 21st century, was taken in and raised by an old Taoist priest as a child. Clad in simple robes, with only half a Taoist scripture to her name, she possessed a natural Daoist constitution and rose to the pinnacle.
Recruited by the Special Incident Response Bureau, she slays demons with a mortal body and protects the people with Taoist arts. Zuo Yi fights her way through blood-robed female ghosts, suppresses fierce blue-faced ghosts, subdues fox demons, severs dragon veins threatening the nation, quells the evil spirits of mass graves, and battles peerless drought demons. Her fame spreads across both the realms of the living and the dead, yet after venturing again and again into forbidden places in the underworld, she stumbles upon a shocking truth.
She has an official position in the human world, and holds a divine office in the underworld as well. Her status is so exalted that even the Ten Kings of Hell must show her deference.
In the grand hall of the underworld, ghost officials kneel, and all ten kings bow in unison.
She is an orphan from a Taoist temple, the heir to a solitary lineage, the Special Incident Response Bureau’s trump card, and a revered deity of the underworld.
Who is her father? Why is her bloodline so extraordinary? Is there a conspiracy behind the spiritual qi revival and the chaos wrought by demons and evil spirits? When her identities in the realms of yin and yang finally collide, she realizes that from the day she was born, she has carried a supreme secret that even Fengdu dares not mention lightly…
P.S. The story is lighthearted and hilarious, with never a dull moment. No romance, and a thoroughly satisfying female-led story! Don’t scroll past! Take a look at me~
