A gaunt, ghost-like ritual master hired by Xie Qing'an. He performed a soul-shattering ritual on Yan Mingxiu using black banners, black powder, corpse oil mixed with cinnabar, yellow talismans with twisted sigils, and a straw effigy bearing Yan Mingxiu's name. The ritual annihilated Yan Mingxiu's soul so it could never be reborn.
