Jiang Ye is a belongings cleaner, nicknamed "Fearless Jiang."
Others burn incense to steel themselves before entering a dead person's home. When he goes in, he only complains that the owner's things are piled up too messily.
Until one day, he finds a yellowed ferry ticket beneath the deceased's pillow. The recipient: him.
Only after boarding at midnight does he learn the truth: his grandmother didn't die of illness seven years ago. She plugged a rift in the underworld with her own body, and is now being burned as fuel by an evil immortal sect called Penglai!
The underworld has been crumbling for seven hundred years. Fengdu has fallen, and the Ten Halls exist in name only. He is the last officially appointed official left in all the underworld!
Ferrying the dead, guiding souls, tending lamps, commanding the ferry... The nine ranks of the Ferry Keeper await him, and his ancestors line up to pass him their tools.
Ferry a soul to earn merit. Spend merit to unlock divine abilities, awaken bloodlines, and raise an army of the dead.
Ghost kings bow when they see him. Evil spirits have to buy tickets to cross the river. Wherever his army's battle flags fly, gods and demons retreat!
Jiang Ye plants his oar in the middle of the river.
"Listen up. The rules of the underworld have been broken for seven hundred years."
"Starting tonight, I'll set them right, one by one."
