One day, a beautiful young woman arrived in the flourishing kingdom of Fengnan. From then on, the Yunxi Valley, dormant for a hundred years, was once again swept up in bloodshed and chaos. The woman's name was Qiu Xue, and her nickname was A Xue. She was the court painter to the Saintess of the Shuiyue Kingdom. She had come in haste on orders to discuss with the King of Fengnan the imminent awakening of the Spring of Crows.
Yunxi Valley was formed in ancient times from the Sky-Opening Axe that Pangu used to create the world. Later, the muddy water left behind when the goddess Nuwa created humanity remained there. After countless generations bathing in the essence of heaven and earth, it gradually took human form. Its people have multiplied from generation to generation ever since, giving rise to the four great kingdoms of Shuiyue, Fengnan, Jinqiao, and Tushan.
