📝 Midnight Quill explores the hidden corners of modern China where ancient arts survive in the shadows of skyscrapers.
Liang Yue was just a pharmacy student at Sichuan University — until her grandmother died and left her a brass pill furnace that had been in the family for 800 years. Now she's the last practicing Internal Alchemist on Earth, refining pills in her dorm room while supernatural factions circle Chengdu, each wanting the ancient recipes only she possesses. But pills can heal — and pills can kill.
