The fourth book of the epic fantasy continues the adventures of Xie Lian, an exiled prince who has twice ascended to Heaven and twice fallen. His companions—the still-mysterious ghost lord Hwa Chen, the powerful yet easy-going Wind Lord Shi Qingxuan, and the reserved Earth Lord Ming Yi—once again face dark forces that challenge both mortals and celestial officials. Amidst mystical temples, ghostly festivals, and cursed towns, they unravel the plots of the True Saint of Wretches—a ghost capable of misleading even the gods. Against the backdrop of bloody folk festivities, where life and death are mixed in a terrifying ritual, the heroes are forced to test not only their strength, but also their trust in each other. This part of the story deepens the philosophical motifs of the series - the struggle between sincerity and pretense, between punishment and mercy, between the past that does not let go and the hope for the absolution of sins. In this part of the series, humor, tension and tenderness are bizarrely combined with mysticism and the diversity of human feelings, creating a world where even the gods cannot protect themselves from doubts and suffering.
