All things were born between heaven and earth. After the great battle in ancient times, Shixin was the only god left in the world. She was born to Shili, the God of Time, and raised by the Celestial Emperor and Empress.
Shixin is arrogant and domineering, and has been titled the Immortal Lady Lingmeng in the Celestial Realm.
Everything could have stayed the same, but a marriage contract forces her to wed Changming, the Demon Lord’s son.
Determined to resist to the death, she flees to the mortal realm. Using her divine powers, she restores the long-abandoned city of Ye to its former glory and becomes its lord for more than thirty years.
Xie Xiyan, the legitimate princess of the Damu Kingdom, comes to Ye City and asks Shixin to take her place as princess and avenge her.
After taking Xie Xiyan’s place, Shixin saves Shen Mu by chance during a snowstorm that lasts three days. He is the son of a traitor, despised by everyone. All hope he will die soon, but the legitimate princess treasures him and makes him her personal guard, sworn to protect her for the rest of her life.
But he was born to destroy the Damu Kingdom and take its place. On the day the kingdom falls, she stands beneath the city gate tower, wearing the same white robe she wore when they first met. “Shen Mu, from this day on, the world will bear the name Shen.”
She leaps down, and the Damu Kingdom falls.
Shixin returns to the Celestial Realm, ready to accept her fate. But at a banquet, she sees a familiar face. It turns out he is Chang Ling, the Demon Lord’s second son, who ended up in the mortal realm by a twist of fate.
That night, he breaks into her bedchamber. Furious, Shixin raises her hand to strike him, but he catches it with a smile. “So Your Highness really is a goddess from heaven.”
