Mingyue Batian, the founding emperor of the Mingyue Dynasty, led the four great generals to end the division and war in the mainland, unified the world, and established the Mingyue Dynasty. The four great generals were named Yong, Ling, Jing, and Feng. After dozens of generations, the dynasty turned from prosperity to decline. The four major princes relied on the resources of their fiefdoms to rise rapidly and compete with the imperial court. The martial arts forces and the court forces were mixed together, and there were constant disputes between them.
Heroes emerge from troubled times. Ling Muqiu, the second son of the Duke of Ling Kingdom, assists his father Ling Zhennan and his eldest brother Ling Mu Lei in a battle of wits and courage with the major forces. After going through all kinds of hardships, he eliminates all forces and reunifies the Mingyue Continent. He abolishes the national and public system and implements the county system. Ling Mu Lei becomes the first emperor. After Lingmu Qiu succeeded, he disagreed with Lingmu Lei's political views and had no intention of being attached to the world. He and Feng Chunying, the princess of Fengzhou, retired to the island and lived like a couple of gods and immortals, never caring about worldly affairs.
