contents Neutron-rich P, Cl, and K isotopes, particularly those with neutron numbers around $N=28$, have attracted extensive experimental and theoretical interest. We utilize the \textit{ab initio} valence-space in-medium similarity renormalization group approach, based on chiral nucleon-nucleon and three-nucleon forces, to investigate the exotic properties of these isotopes. Systematic calculations of the low-lying spectra are performed. A key finding is the level inversion between $3/2_1^+$ and $1/2_1^+$ states in odd-$A$ isotopes, attributed to the inversion of $π0d_{3/2}$ and $π1s_{1/2}$ single-particle states.\textit{Ab initio} calculations, which incorporate the three-nucleon forces, correlate closely with existing experimental data. Further calculations of effective proton single-particle energies provide deeper insights into the shell evolution for $Z=14$ and $16$ sub-shells. Our results indicate that the three-body force plays important roles in the shell evolution for $Z=14$ and $16$ sub-shells with neutron numbers ranging from 20 to 28. Additionally, systematic \textit{ab initio} calculations are conducted for the low-lying spectra of odd-odd nuclei. The results align with experimental data and provide new insights for future research into these isotopes, up to and beyond the drip line.
