Detective Tai Siyi: Valley of Ghosts

Time is like a knife, quietly carving the mark of the first year of Hongwu. Rumors spread through the martial world that the dreaded 'Valley of Ghosts' is not a perilous mountain valley hidden on some map, but the name of a living person. This person is unfathomable, with both literary and martial skills reaching the pinnacle of perfection. He chooses to exile himself from the mundane world, though without a single disciple, he seems to possess a celestial eye that sees through the underworld, taking in all the changes under heaven, silently observing the bustling mortal realm. As the wheel of time rolls over twenty years of cold and heat, advancing to the twenty-first year of Hongwu, the long-silent Valley of Ghosts finally breaks its solitude. He takes in two disciples against all precedent: one named Wang Xiongfei, the other Tai Siyi. One civil, one martial, both already beyond human.
