Flesh and blood can grow over white bones, but he still needs several million demon cores.
Lin Ge'er, the skeletal innkeeper of Who Comes to the Inn in Jiwuzhou, is sharp-tongued, stingy, and has lost his memory. He doesn't even know who he is. To gather enough demon cores to rebuild his body, he risks sneaking into the human realm. But the moment he arrives, he runs into human cultivators, casually steals a Wuyi Sword, and accidentally stumbles into the forbidden grounds of Taixuan Sect.
Gravestones fill the back mountain. In their midst stands a grand tomb, engraved with the words "Tomb of Lin Ziye." The coffin is empty, and a message is left on the wall:
"If I do not die, I will surely return."
Su Wu has waited a thousand years. The Wuyi Sword recognizes only him. Lin Ge'er feels, as he runs his hand over the sword, that this trip has been a terrible deal.
"Could this skeleton really be Lin Ziye? Did I just... deliver myself right to his doorstep?"
