In this historical fantasy danmei (Boys’ Love), a monk with amnesia and two raggedy paper dolls inhabited by a dragon and a ghost embark on a journey to reclaim their former glory. But can they endure each other long enough to find what they seek? Under the blue glow of dawn, Xue Xian--former dragon and current paper doll--is mere moments away from being kidnapped and exorcized. Except, Xue Xian has no idea! Instead, he’s cursed to be trapped in the form of a hideous paper doll alongside the bickering Jiang Shining, a former ghost indebted to assist Xue Xian in reclaiming his lost glory and, ultimately, avenging the wrongs inflicted upon him. So when a monk with amnesia named Xuanmin--hot on the trail of an unknown curse--arrives at the burnt ruins of Jiang Manor, he quickly finds the source. Putting off the exorcism for his return, Xuanmin unceremoniously stuffs two crude paper dolls inside his pouch and heads back, none the wiser. Furious, Xue Xian grumpily stews in captivity and declares a new vow: To turn this high-minded monk’s life into a living hell! Trapped as a traveling trio, they must suffer one another’s company while seeking answers to their growing list of questions: Will Jiang Shining be able to fulfill the unfinished business that tethers him to this mortal coil? Will Xue Xian be able to crack Xuanmin’s icy demeanor, and will he like what he finds if he does? More importantly still, who even is Xuanmin?

THE FINAL VOLUME IN THIS THRILLING DANMEI ADVENTURE!

With the elusive sorcerer’s name finally in hand, Xue Xian and Xuanmin should be close to reaching their goal. But something between them has shifted—something neither can ignore. As the final seals on Xuanmin’s mysterious copper coins begin to crack, long-buried memories surface, altering the course of their journey.

Just as Xue Xian starts to think he might want to keep Xuanmin at his side, fate hurls them into a deadly chase through a nightmarish cave crawling with colossal insects. Yet a venomous bite may prove to be the least of their troubles.

As calamity closes in, the question is no longer who stole Xue Xian’s dragon bones—but whether the truth will destroy them both.

The final volume!
