Nie Xiangying was sent to be buried alive by Nie Xiangmo, who had the matrons carry out the deed. She was scared to death, then reborn in her body when a modern special agent with a healing spiritual-energy ability, but no offensive powers, took it over and absorbed her memories.
Crown Prince Qi Xuanyu was gravely injured and poisoned, and was being hunted through the woods when he witnessed the scene. He killed the two matrons to silence them, then discovered that Nie Xiangying had come back from the dead and was astonished by her remarkable medical skills.
The Crown Prince took her away to serve as his physician. She used golden needles to channel spiritual energy and detoxify him, saving his life. He kept his promise and let her go, but, impressed by her medical skills, secretly sent people to investigate her, intending to recruit her for his own use.
