your idol, my god

Summary:

"I know you, Hua Cheng. You have never done anything that has not served yourself. Why propose this plan now?"

Hua Cheng thought of a parade, falling from a wall, kind eyes and reassuring words. He thought of despair and loss. Millennia alone. Then those same eyes on an idol poster.

"I'm bored, and this seems like fun."

Or: Heaven's Hunters is an idol group focused not only on performing for their adoring fans, but on protective the world from the wrath of ghosts by using their music to maintain a barrier between the human realm and the ghost realm. On the cusp of achieving the goal set by their godly ancestors, a new idol group emerges - The Calamities. Not only are they a threat to Heaven's Hunters popularity, but their status as powerful ghosts poses a danger to everything Hunters have worked toward. Xie Lian should hate this group of meddling ghosts- so why does he fell so comfortable with their leader? And why does he seem so familiar?

Chapter Text

The world will know you as pop stars, but you will be much more than that. You will be Hunters. Ghosts have always haunted our world, stealing our souls and channeling strength back to the great Calamity of all: White-No-Face. Until heroes arose to defend us. Descended from the Old Gods, these heroes were born with the power to cultivate battle and music. Singing songs of courage and hope while fighting back evil forces. But Hunters are more than warriors. Our music ignites the soul and brings people together. With this connection, the first Hunters created a shield to protect our world, the Guǐmén. Through their music they create enough energy to keep this barrier strong and prevent it from erupting. Through their martial arts, they ensure any ghosts powerful enough to slip past the barrier do not bring harm to humans. Every generation, a new trio of Hunters is chosen to fulfill our ultimate duty. A barrier so strong it is impenetrable, that will keep ghosts and White-No-Face from our world forever, the Golden Guǐmén.
