My Cold-Faced Master Begged Me to Return, So I Gave Him Three Graves

[Mystery solving, suspense, supernatural powers, talisman master]

Shen Qingwu, a talisman prodigy expelled from his sect, runs a dilapidated general store in the mortal world and scrapes by selling fake talismans.

His cold-faced master, Yun Che, kneels and begs him to come out of retirement to avert a great calamity at the Qingyun Sect. Shen Qingwu instead produces a contract concerning three graves and demands that Yun Che admit to betraying him in the secret realm all those years ago.

When his former fellow disciple Liu Wujie leads a group to hunt him down, Shen Qingwu lays out a breathtaking talisman array using a stack of scrap paper in an abandoned warehouse, accidentally exposing the secret of his incomplete Record of Ten Thousand Talismans.

The Demon Sect's movements come to light. Su Muxue and Zhao Tiezhu each have their own motives, and Shen Qingwu is dragged into a conspiracy spanning two worlds. His ultimate trump card turns out to be the sealed demonic seed inside A Man.
