The Three Realms still exist, and the old gods have not been destroyed.
On the ruins after the collapse of faith, a war about "the return of divinity" and "the preservation of human boundaries" quietly began.
The protagonist Jiang Liu, the barbecue stall owner of Yanxi Lane Night Market, a sloppy middle-aged father with a vicious mouth, is actually the 100th generation descendant after becoming a god. He doesn't want to become a god, nor does he want to save the world. He just wants to live an ordinary life with his daughter at the stall.
But the chain of heaven is broken, and the world has quietly been displaced. Driven by fate and mission, a series of visions involved him in the fateful fetters between the guardians, allowing him to gradually uncover the truth buried deep inside.
In this era where no one believes in God and no one can be trusted, the ones who truly protect order are no longer the gods in the sky, but the "boundary keepers" who are hidden in the world and cannot be seen.
Gods are no longer worshiped. If faith has a destination, it is not in heaven, but in the human heart.
