A Toast to Love, a Farewell to Grief

Xiao Chen guards the yellow wine recipe his father left behind and wants nothing more than to sell wine in peace.

Until one night, the injured Holy Maiden of the Demon Clan crashes into his wine shop.

He recognizes the half of a jade pendant hanging from her waist. It matches the one his father wore when he disappeared.

To save her life, Xiao Chen uses the forbidden recipe, “Drunken Immortal Brew.”

The wine's fragrance draws the attention of powerful figures from the Five Realms. An elder of the Immortal Sect barges in: “Hand over the elixir of immortality!”

The Demon Emperor's envoy smiles with hidden menace: “Work with me, young friend, and you'll enjoy eternal wealth and glory.”

The Ghost King whispers from the shadows: “Your father, Xiao Bang, didn't die by accident...”

And the Holy Maiden, waking in his arms, fixes him with her demonic eyes: “Mortal, do you know what it costs to awaken me?”

Xiao Chen raises the wine jar as the allied forces of the five clans glare menacingly from outside

The murky wine ripples inside the jar, reflecting his suddenly demonic eyes.
