Just when Liu Xiaodan thought that his strange, mundane life was at its peak after meeting the ghost child he named Guangru, the child ended up being a gateway to the past that he had never wished to unlock... and a future he could only brace for.

Through his blood came a mystery that had soon given birth to an existence that everyone wanted to subdue yet no one would like to meet. Liu Xiaodan was destined to stand at the top of the food chain, but would he use his powers for good? Or would he rather lock himself away from the light forever? After all, his kind... was the strongest in the dark.

This is the monster that he chose to become.

The Birth of a Ghost Overlord

"Baba, how long are you going to sleep?"


A ghastly howl echoed in Liu Xiaodan's ears. When he scrunched his face and opened his eyes after, he could see himself in a dark void. However, he was clearly lying supine on what seemed to be a branch. His limbs were dangling from the sides, but twigs were holding him in place.


Liu Xiaodan sat up and stared at the void before him. Soon, a face made up of marks on a bark loomed before him. Guangru seemed to be worried, but it was hard to make it out from those feebly moving marks as a face. The father then smiled.


"I'm upset, Baba. You're breaking your own body. Do you think you're healing with no repercussions?" Guangru didn't proceed with his child talk while in this form. He never showed this form to anyone, but he was so sure that Liu Xiaodan wasn't going to run away because of it. "That's… bad thinking."
