The Hidden Nether Bureau

Beneath the prosperous capital of Jinghua lies a secret bureau devoted to capturing demons. Lu Zhao, a newcomer with half-demon blood, is drawn into a bizarre case involving an intoxicating incense while patrolling at night. Skin-changing demons beguile the mind, forbidden books surface, and a sealed chest stirs. The clues point to unrest in the southwest and shadows within the bureau. When the seal on the ancient battlefield known as the Ten Thousand Demons Mound breaks, the balance between humans and demons teeters on the brink of collapse. Forced to choose between loyalty and truth, and between the greater good of humanity and his demon blood, Lu Zhao embarks on a perilous journey to quell the demon calamity and forge a new pact between the two realms.
