Synopsis

The Soul-Calming Parlor, also known as Tales of the Burial Sect After his grandfather dies, young Chen Yan, heir to the Burial Sect, is forced to take over the family’s century-old funeral shop, the Soul-Calming Parlor. As he handles one bizarre funeral case after another, he grows from someone who doesn’t believe in tradition and wants to sell the shop into someone who respects life and death and accepts his responsibilities. In the end, he exposes and stops the Black Burial Sect’s deadly scheme spanning multiple cities, carries on the Burial Sect’s legacy, and safeguards the balance between yin and yang. After inheriting the family funeral shop, Chen Yan takes on his first job. The deceased died a violent death, and the seventh day after his passing hasn’t come yet. His family ignores the warnings and turns back during the funeral procession. That night, the man in the coffin comes home. Only then does Chen Yan learn: Never paint pupils onto paper figures. Never let the sun shine on a relocated grave. Never rush to bury someone who died violently. And the funeral shop’s lamp must never go out. Because when the light goes out, whoever comes won’t be among the living.

I’m Out of Books to Read. Recommend Something Original; I’m Tired of All the Formulaic Stories

Looking for something like The Boss Is Insanely Cunning, and So Is My System. An original premise, a protagonist who isn't an idiot, and no major deal-breakers. The kind you can stay up all night reading.

Mystery and Supernatural Stories

Looking for something similar to The Midnight Pawnshop: The Living Must Keep Their Distance. Please, I need a gripping supernatural mystery! No saintly protagonists: they should punish evildoers in their own way, help good people, and tell bad people to get lost. Daoist stories are welcome, including female Daoists. Episodic stories are fine too.
