A young man arrives at the house of the divine diviner Hao, hoping to become an apprentice, but ends up as the mysterious Grand-Uncle Master. He hasn't learned a thing about divination, yet he's ordered to leave the mountain and enter the world as the heir to the divine diviner, with no idea how he's supposed to get by. On the road, two girls fall from the sky and turn out to be his daughters and disciples. With unfinished ties from a past life, he returns to the mortal world to face a momentous upheaval a thousand years in the making and carry humanity's civilization through its ten-thousand-year cycle.
The Journey of Golden Spears and Fair Maidens: Return to the Mortal World
In days of old, spring graced the towers, and beautiful women adorned the waters of Fragrant Mountain. Then the armies rose and iron hooves thundered, leaving jeweled hairpins and rouge-stained faces lost in the dust of war.
Where did the beauties go? The realm split apart, and all under Heaven was divided. Where could they turn for refuge? Princes and ministers scattered and fled. The Central Plains sank into chaos.
Unmatched heroes, their hearts devoted to home and country, risked their lives in battle. How dare these young men set their sights on all under Heaven? Their camps were lined with beauties, their ranks bristling with spirit.
Was it for pleasure and beauty? No, it was to honor bonds and kindness from a past life. Was it for fame and fortune? No, it was to fight for survival, moment by moment. They would turn the tide of fate.
