Beyond the Yellow Springs

Luo An was destined from birth to be sacrificed by his village to the mountain god. But his innate ghost meridians attracted an old ghost, and he narrowly escaped death.

The old ghost raised him to adulthood using the treasures of a former dynasty.

When he was sixteen, a Taoist came to Jiuxing Mountain, where he practiced cultivation.

Young but highly skilled in Taoist arts, the man was a direct disciple of the Zixiao Hall of Shangqing Palace, and had come to defeat the mountain god.

The Taoist was named Luo Wen. He was Luo An's long-lost elder brother.

The brothers were reunited, but Luo An didn't want to acknowledge him.

The master of the Yellow Springs was gone, yin and yang were out of balance, and ghosts roamed in broad daylight. The world descended into chaos.

The reputation of ghost cultivators had already hit an all-time low, and it was still sinking.

Since the brothers had never had the fate to grow up together, and their paths now diverged, they ought to go their separate ways.

But Luo Wen didn't seem to agree...

Luo An took up his brush and drew a line before him. Any ghost who refused reincarnation would remain above the Yellow Springs and beneath his authority.

Luo An: Born with a worried face, and destined for a life of toil.

Transmigration isn't something any sane person would choose, and after transmigrating, you certainly can't act like a normal person.

Xu Zhengyang definitely didn't want to transmigrate.

He was a hugely popular idol at the peak of his career, with fans all over Asia. He barely had time to make his appointments, so how could he possibly have time to transmigrate?

But Murphy's law says that the more you don't want something, the more likely it is to happen.

So Xu Zhengyang transmigrated, landing in a xianxia world he'd only ever seen in novels and on television.

But this world didn't seem as "immortal" as he'd imagined.

Instead, evil ghosts roamed in broad daylight. To them, the kind-hearted and the wicked alike were nothing but food, achieving a kind of "equality."

He didn't like this world.

So he wanted to change it.

But anyone who wants to change the world is bound to face countless obstacles and betrayals. When disaster struck and he was on the brink of death, he met a powerful figure. The man was a ghost cultivator, and he was willing to help...

Luo An (looking miserable): No, I don't want to help you. Go away.

Xu Zhengyang: I don't need your help. I'll handle it myself.

Luo An: ...I guess I'll follow you and take a look. I'll just watch from behind. I absolutely won't get involved.
