Summoned by a young man who sacrificed his soul in a forbidden ritual, Wei Wuxian is now bound to seek vengeance on the stranger’s behalf or risk the destruction of his own soul. But when an evil entity emerges, a familiar face from Wei Wuxian’s past suddenly appears amidst the chaos–Lan Wangji, a powerful cultivator who will help shine a light on the dark truths that surround them.

Review: Another format to enjoy an amazing story - I've enjoyed MDZS in multiple formats already (anime, live action, novel) and it still captivates! The graphic novel format adds another layer to a wonderful story. In gorgeous full color, readers are given more emphasis on, and nuance from, character expressions and can more easily follow the action. The distinction between Mo Xuanyu and Wei Wuxian us immediately vlear from the star: I found it confusing in the Anime and in live action it's the same actor. The artwork is simply beautiful, with clean lines and detailed shading. The only downside is this format can only give a small segment of the story at a time. Volume 1 only covers the events from Mo Manor to the arrival at the Dancing Fairy. Those who are completely unfamiliar with MDZS will endure a cliffhanger, the rest of us will be left with eager anticipation. I've already preordered the upcoming volumes and cannot wait to see the romance unfold. Review: beautiful story - I love the series. I have seen the anime,the drama and read the novels. Glad I finally gave the manwha a try. It’s drawn beautifully. I’m glad I added this to my kindle library. I wish the chapters were longer but they follow the original novel very well.

An easy (and fun) read
I’ve been in a reading slump recently, so when a friend suggested that I try reading this to get me out of the slump, I readily agreed. I’m so glad I did! Bc this comic was so much fun, and so easy to read. I need to read the next one too!

Short but amazing!
It was pretty short, but overall I really enjoyed it! I like the art, the explanations of what things mean, and it just has nice quality. I'll be getting more of these! Definitely loved this!!

Love this series!
One of my fav book series these days. Art is gorgeous. Only complaint is my book was a little damaged on the spine. Nothing too bad, but when you buy brand new you kinda want something not damaged, y‘know?

Perfection
Beautiful composition overall. Absolutely wonderful that Seven Seas licensed this manhua for English publication. The images are in full color, pages are crisp, and the book came in perfect condition. Nothing beats having a physical copy of this great story in full illustrated color. I hope they are starting a trend with this one and start picking up other manhua for physical publication.
