Nightwalker: Twenty Years of Demon-Slaying

“When humans are made into fakes, they become yaoguai; when things possess a spirit, they become jing. When the qi of Heaven and Earth is in turmoil, anything unusual may become a guai. When spirits are not upright, they become xie; when the human heart is crazed and deluded, it becomes mo; when it veers toward heresy, it becomes an unorthodox path.” Hou Mo, a young man who had drifted south, discovered during a sudden upheaval that he carried the bloodline of a nightwalker, and a highly unusual one at that: the “Numinous Stone Monkey.” This bloodline was cursed by Heaven and carried a genetic flaw that meant he would not live past thirty. To survive, he had no choice but to step into an era he had never heard of and fight for his life. The seven demon lairs, the Wanderers’ Alliance, the ten great masters, strange and varied folk legends, chilling rural secrets, hidden mysteries in the city, and the most terrifying Yellow Springs Guide: the truths you may have heard of but never truly understood are all revealed in Nightwalker: Twenty Years of Subduing Demons!
