Jiang Shuning was the legitimate daughter of the Marquis of Wuan and Princess Zhao'en, born to a life of wealth and privilege as the young lady of the marquis's household.
But as soon as she was born, her cruel biological father switched her with his illegitimate daughter. The usurper took her place, while Jiang Shuning was abandoned in the hills behind the estate and nearly buried alive.
At death's door, she was rescued and raised by a family of white tigers in the mountains. Naturally gifted and perceptive, she could communicate with all living things, and her years in the wilderness were peaceful and carefree.
But then an evil flood dragon appeared. The white tiger clan fell off a cliff and vanished while protecting her, leaving the orphan adrift once more, until an ordinary farming family took her in.
Blessed with immortal fate and carrying a priceless treasure, she rises from humble beginnings, devoting herself to helping the world, spreading learning, and bringing peace to the land, determined to build an age of great harmony.
Bound by the ties of ten lifetimes, fate brings them together: she is the Mystic Maiden of the Nine Heavens, he is the ruler of the Nine Li, and she is also his only salvation.
Between gods and demons, grace and tribulation, duty and love, how will they choose amid the hatred that has endured across lifetimes?
