   Summary

   Xie Lian was forced to leave Ban Yue after a riot went astray, only to be cornered in a cave by a water demon that gave him the "gift" of a tail! Without his legs, Xie Lian only had his instincts and the current to rely on now. Through a treacherous journey he eventually ended up in the water on the outskirts of Ghost City. What will this ghastly city hold for him to find, and what secret is the auspicious man clad in crimson keeping hidden?
