In recent years, the Ghost Realm has fallen into chaos.
The Gates of the Netherworld have been flung open, allowing countless wandering souls and supernatural beings to slip into the human world.
Thus were born the Netherworld Envoys—
to capture evil spirits and guide benevolent souls onward…

Yu Wuyi was a child of calamity.
At birth, she brought death to her mother. Her father abandoned her and sent her to the countryside to live with her grandmother.
Her grandmother told her that she possessed the purest Extreme Yin Constitution, irresistibly attractive to malevolent spirits—a living “sweet offering.”
When Yu Wuyi was five, her grandmother took her to a mass grave. She cut open Yu Wuyi’s palm and forced her to kowtow before grave after grave, while muttering incantations Yu Wuyi couldn’t yet understand.
The little girl kowtowed before fifty graves—nothing happened.
But when she wiped the blood from her forehead and tremblingly bowed before the fifty-first…
something finally answered.

Now eighteen, Yu Wuyi has been able to see both yin and yang since childhood. To protect herself, she learned Taoist arts from her grandmother, Yu Song.
Strangely, though her cultivation succeeded, all ghosts seemed to avoid her instead.
All skill, nowhere to use it!
That is, until the day she received her acceptance letter to University L—
only to be summoned back to the countryside by a sudden phone call.
Seeing the traditional ten-li red bridal procession, reserved only for ancient brides, she couldn’t help but feel curious…
But when she found herself dressed in crimson wedding robes, trapped inside a bridal chamber plastered with red “double happiness” characters, candles burning brightly, unable to escape—
And when she finally met the owner of the jade pendant she carried—
She understood why she had been brought here.
To be married.

Yu Wuyi curled up at the corner of the bed, warily staring at the cold, breathtakingly beautiful female ghost before her, her voice trembling as she threatened:
“Y-you stay back… I do know some spells…”
The ghost paid her no mind and leaned even closer.
That icy breath brushed Yu Wuyi’s ear, making the tip burn hot.
“Give up those little thoughts. They’re not worth noticing.”
“I protected you for thirteen years. Collecting a bit of interest today… is only fair.”

At first, suddenly gaining a ghost wife left Yu Wuyi panicked.
The ghost claimed to be a princess, yet to Yu Wuyi, she seemed more like a lazy cat—
hard to understand, sharp-tongued,
appearing and disappearing at will, overwhelmingly powerful.
And Yu Wuyi’s half-baked skills were no match for her.
So what could she do?
Endure it obediently.
But later, Yu Wuyi realized—
this ghost always arrived to save her from danger.
She could blush too.
She’d fall over with the lightest push.
Pinned to the bed, she’d choke back sobs and call Yu Wuyi’s name…

The moment Yu Wuyi realized she had fallen in love, she truly panicked.
Her grandmother’s warning was carved deep into her heart.
She should never fall for Qin An.
But in the end, it didn’t matter anymore.
Qin An—
as long as you’re willing,
you may use me however you wish.
