Victor Hart, a centuries-old British vampire, relocates to Hong Kong after a family squabble turns his undead life upside down. Struggling to adapt to the fast-paced city, Victor's antiquated manners and vampiric instincts create hilariously awkward situations in a modern world. However, his attempts to live under the radar are interrupted when he stumbles upon an ancient Chinese ritual that has awakened hordes of jiangshi—hopping zombies steeped in Chinese folklore. Teaming up with an eccentric Taoist priest, a geeky supernatural researcher, a skeptical ex-cop, and an enchanting Hong Kong socialite, Victor must navigate cultural clashes, romantic entanglements, and supernatural chaos to save his newfound home from an undead apocalypse.

COMPLETED! --- "From now on, you will not age, nor will you die. From now on, you will witness how people around you die. From now on, you will be the undying Immortal Zhang Hei." --- More than four hundred years ago, Zhang Hei callously swung his sword to separate souls from their bodies, leaving no soul attached to the body in Jiangshi Palace. The massacre triggered severe punishment from the God of Life, and he was cursed to witness the death of the humans around him while he himself would not be able to die. From that day on, Zhang Hei became an immortal who would live forever. Zhang Hei had lived in this world for over four hundred years, and he had witnessed so many deaths over the years. As he continued losing people around him, he felt more and more emptiness in his heart, and he finally begged the God of Life to lift his punishment. He said that he wanted to die, and the God of Life then asked him to meet the God of Death. The God of Death then asked him to find a person. That person was one of the people he killed heartlessly more than four hundred years ago, and after meeting him again, his life started to change. As his life continued to change, Zhang Hei also began to see strange images in his mind that seemed to be part of the past that were erased from his memory by the God of Life, and some unexpected things began to happen in his life. Would the immortal still want to die after he once again reunited with someone from the past? Would he be able to die in the end?

"The Hell is decommissioned. Since Heaven is not acting reasonably, was there a need for Hell to judge the dead and make them atone for their sins?" the Yanluo King said. This decision closed the door for the dead in Lingyu Realm. As time passed, the Yin-Energy in this realm intensifies, to the point all the dead would eventually turn into Jiangshi.

One day, she sees Sucheng together with another girl and she chooses to run away cowardly. From then on, they start to drift apart. Many years later when they meet again, he is still the same person, but she's no longer the old her; she only says a sentence, “Sucheng, it has been a long time.” Only when Sucheng embraces her once again and says, “Xujing, there was never anyone else; I have loved you all this while,” did she realise that he likes her. Sucheng and her, despite being in love with each other, let ten years slipped by. Luckily, he has been searching for her and she has also been waiting for him. Here is wishing that every Xujing will be able to meet her Sucheng.

He wasn't supposed to be here. Although he couldn't remember much, he knew he was not supposed to be in this place, in this world, and in this body. In truth, he wasn't supposed to even possess life, but here he was, warm of flesh, beating heart, and far away from his tomb. Really, why couldn't he just be a Jiangshi in peace?
