Legend of Exorcism Vol. 4
Why Read This?The one-sentence sell. What do you get for showing up to this book, even when it's hard?
A high fantasy danmei adventure where an exorcist found family investigates supernatural crimes in Tang dynasty Chang'an. The slow burn M/M romance finally advances in this volume while the mythology deepens. Perfect for readers who want plot-heavy fantasy with their BL.
Synopsis
VISIONS OF THE PAST AND FUTURE After returning from the north, the Department of Exorcism is no sooner reunited in Chang'an than a series of strange cases strikes the capital. Vicious ghosts have appeared in the imperial mausoleums, slaughtering the guards who protect the remains of former emperors. Whether the attacks are a true haunting, the yao king at work, or the plot of a sinister new enemy, the exorcists must discover the truth before another catastrophe befalls the nation. Meanwhile, although Hongjun and Li Jinglong have taken a step forward in their relationship, Hongjun continues to be plagued by anxieties. One entity may be able to answer his the divine kun, a powerful yao with the ability to see the future. But the kun is missing, and the yao king—or his agents—may hold the only clues to his mysterious disappearance.
