This tale is a fusion of two worlds, born from the remnants of unfinished stories, now woven into a single epic narrative.

At its heart lies Zhong Kui, the legendary King of Ghosts whose name echoed through China during the Tang and Ming dynasties. Known for his mastery over 80,000 demons and his unyielding vigilance in maintaining order between the realms of the living and the dead, Zhong Kui’s reign was fortified by the Five Bats—symbols of the Five Blessings of good fortune. With their power, his rule was unmatched.

But fate turned cruel. A cataclysmic battle with an enigmatic figure known only as the "Emperor" shattered Zhong Kui's dominion. The Emperor, a being with powers that twisted reality itself, struck a devastating blow. Stripped of the Five Bats, Zhong Kui fell. Sealed away within a cavern, he was left to slumber for a millennium, his legacy fading into myth.

Fast forward to the 21st century. Explorers unearth the ancient cave, unwittingly breaking the seal that binds Zhong Kui. The ghost king awakens to a changed world, brimming with both opportunity and peril.

Enter Bai Lumin, a struggling writer navigating the chaos of modern life. Desperate to make ends meet, her life takes a sharp turn when she discovers an extraordinary gift—she can see ghosts. This revelation comes in a harrowing encounter within an abandoned building, where danger lurks in every shadow.

It is Zhong Kui, who comes to her aid, a towering figure from a forgotten age, now tethered to a world far removed from his own. Their meeting ignites a story of intrigue, danger, and the rekindling of ancient powers. As their paths intertwine, Bai Lumin is drawn into Zhong Kui's quest to reclaim the Five Bats and restore balance to the world of spirits, while carving her own destiny amidst the chaos.
