Tales of Xingyue and Earth

In the northern reaches of a barred spiral galaxy, the Milky Way, a mighty civilization was born: the Tang Civilization. It ruled over the star systems stretching thousands of light-years around it, and for a million years, countless races bowed before it. But then came a rebellion. The Tiger Clan wreaked havoc, and the Pheasant Clan turned against its masters, ushering in a dark age that lasted twenty thousand years. As the Bear, Eagle, and Lion Clans rose to power, the Tang people were left clinging to a small corner of the galaxy.

The ultimate weapon, the War God Xingtian, emerged, but it brought no glory to the Tang people. Instead, they faced a grueling escape across fifteen hundred light-years and more than eight thousand years of bloody resistance. Song Shiyou, the last woman of the Tang people, fled to the frontier under the protection of her companions. In the end, only a bird and a child remained by her side, and the light of Tang civilization was about to go out.

The vengeful Pheasant Clan, led by Pheasant Fifty-Six, pursued the Tang people relentlessly. After a devastating battle at the Earth-Sun Lagrange Point 1, Song Shiyou and her pet Xiaobai gave everything they had to inflict a mutual defeat on Pheasant Fifty-Six. But their shuttle lost power and became uncontrollable. Desperate, Song Shiyou and Xiaobai could only abandon the craft and flee, plunging toward the ground from an altitude of five to six hundred kilometers.

A seed of civilization's light fell upon the African savanna. After two hundred thousand years of migration and evolution, it began to take root, sprout, and grow tenaciously, spreading civilization's light to every corner of the blue planet. A great civilization was born. One day in the future, under Chen Hao's leadership, the people of Earth would emerge from the dark region beyond the Solar System once more. The barred spiral galaxy would not be the end of his journey. The boundless universe needed humanity to leave its mark.
