It is the year 1960. Long Mat Diah is hunting like he always did before he comes face to face with a forest guardian, an entity of immense power that terrifies men and spirits alike. Will he prevail or will he die? This is his story.... more>>

Told from the viewpoint of Long Mat Diah’s grandchild, Tamar Jalis, this is a story of pre-modern Malaysia.

That was the title they used to call me in my past life, before I became human.

As a craftsman and a skilled ghostcatcher, Mi Tuan was often troubled. One day, he sighed while lamenting to the cat he had picked up, "The life of a human being is really too difficult.

His parents frowned upon him, and his elder brother told him over and over again: Don’t fight with Lu Li.

His eldest brother fell off a cliff, and his body has not been found so far. His uncle took power easily.

His uncle looked at the man, who was physically disabled and pale after waking up, and waved his hand. “The Fu family has suffered a lot this year, and the Lu and Fu families are planning to join hands in marriage. You are going to marry the young master of the Lu family, Lu Yu.”

A few days later, in the Lu family manor, Fu Yunchao was sitting in a wheelchair, and Lu Yu leaned over to look at him.

The two looked at each other, their eyes were like an abyss, and there was a smile on their lips.

Why do they seem to have the same kind of breath?
