Ji Han was persecuted out of spite and died, becoming a wronged ghost, drenched in blood and brimming with murderous energy. But before he could get through the first seven days after his death and begin killing, he was told that all his enemies were dead...
Yet the person who brought him the news was the main reason he had died.
He stood before his own grave, watching it all.
He watched the wounds and blood on his best friend, heard him recount how he had slaughtered everyone connected to the matter in a single night, and saw the familiar yet bitter smile on his face. He watched him take out, one by one, the foods and belongings Ji Han loved from the one clean, finely made cloth bag...
Conflicted emotions filled his mind. In the end, Ji Han couldn’t bring himself to strike.
He left the land he knew so well. His bloodstained robes turned green again. Now, he only wanted to see more of the green mountains and clear waters before his soul faded away.
But...
Standing before him now was a white-clad young man with black hair and a jade crown. He held a jade fan and looked every inch a righteous immortal, but Ji Han saw clearly that the other man had floated down from the sky.
Before Ji Han, stunned to his very core, could speak, the man opposite him suddenly pulled a rope as thick as a baby’s arm from his waist...
Ji Han: "...Immortal, let’s talk this out."
Immortal: "Of course, of course! We can talk!"
Then he promptly tied Ji Han up like a zongzi.
Ji Han: "..." Even as a ghost, he was more of a failure than the others.
