The Night Watchers of Great Jing

In the ink-black night of Great Jing, there is more than the romantic enchantment of talented scholars and beautiful women. Chilling whispers lurk beneath the cold night sky. Fox spirits weep at graves, white-robed figures borrow lives, and knife-sellers walk the streets once more. Through the endless night, the living and the dead share the road. The uncanny runs rampant. Who can protect the people?

...Zhao Li awakens in this world. She establishes the Night Watch Bureau and becomes a Night Watcher. She patrols the long night, slaying evil spirits and suppressing wickedness. In this land of ghosts, wherever her long blade points, light shines!

A lighter introduction: A metaphysics expert transmigrates into a world where spiritual qi has revived, becoming Zhao Li, the despised biological daughter who was switched at birth. From the start, she’s beset by a three-part attack: a mother who favors others, a vicious elder brother, and a cold-hearted father! Trapped in a cramped courtyard, she wants nothing to do with family feuds and household infighting. Zhao Li just wants to make money and build a career, then live a simple, quiet life with plenty of money and free time. She joins the Jingning Guard and establishes the Night Watch Bureau. The motto of Great Jing’s new generation of Night Watchers is: “If you can solve it with your fists, don’t waste your breath.” She charges headlong into solving uncanny cases and subduing demons. A little carp from the river will one day leap into a dragon and soar freely across the sky!

The sinister, ruthless commander: “I knew it. A Li is in love with me!”

Zhao Li: “Is that news to me?”
