[The story follows the main cast as they solve mysteries one by one, telling tales of love and hatred among humans, ghosts, demons, and gods. The pacing is on the slower side, so please be patient as you read!]
Do you believe in gods? What is a god? When you light incense before a god, are you worshipping a deity, an authority, or… human desire?
At the dawn of chaos, all beings across the four realms were equal. But when war broke out, the Human Emperor was defeated and the demons withdrew from the world. From then on, humanity entered an age of divine rule…
A thousand years later, the half-demon Wei Luan is sent down the mountain to gain experience. By chance, she is drawn into a bizarre conflict, uncovering a history long buried and setting out to find the truth. Along the way, she and her senior brother Zi Zhao encounter Tan Ling, a divine official of the Celestial Clan; Lu Xing, a ghost emissary; and Wei Shi, a demon wolf. Together, they form a monster-hunting squad, destroy evil cults, battle wicked gods, and restore order to Heaven and Earth. They endure life-and-death partings and come to understand the fickleness of the world and the warmth and coldness of human relationships… In the end, they comprehend the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth and become new gods who protect the four corners of the world.
