The ordinary life in Qingwa Lane was shattered when her dear friend Yun Yao and her parents were brutally killed by evil forces. The trail led to a conspiracy between butcher Li and Immortal Master Zhao of Guanyun Pavilion, and hinted at even more tangled power struggles. Bearing a blood feud, Song Lanqing was accepted as a disciple by Elder Mo Chen of Lingyun Pavilion thanks to her innate spiritual meridians, and set out on the path of cultivation.
As a new disciple, she had to endure Elder Mo Chen's rigorous training to strengthen her foundation, as well as the exclusion and misunderstanding of her fellow disciples. Driven by her obsession with revenge, she was impatient for success and repeatedly hit obstacles. Nan Wuyue, Elder Mo Chen's first disciple, appeared gentle and refined but was in truth calculating and extraordinarily influential. He guided Song Lanqing's growth in his own way, allowing people with ulterior motives to approach her so they could hone her judgment, while secretly clearing obstacles from her path and protecting her.
Through repeated trials, Song Lanqing gradually shed her inexperience, becoming steady and resilient instead of impulsive and reckless. She had to improve her cultivation to face villains such as Immortal Master Zhao, while learning to see through people's deceit and find her footing amid the rising tensions between the righteous and demonic paths. As her investigation deepened, she discovered that the road to revenge was far more complicated than she had imagined. It led to an even more powerful hidden force, and her ultimate enemy turned out to be a formidable figure whose appearance was deeply deceptive.
Song Lanqing's journey from an innocent girl to a cultivator who could stand on her own also revealed the tangled rivalries over power and the hidden truths linking the immortal sects and the demonic path.
