Ji Ling firmly believes in three things: First, he is a little fox. Second, the Dragon God Chiwen is the best person in the world. Third, the Spirit-Taming Ring on his hand will keep him safe.
Fragments of Jiuying are scattered across the world, possessing all manner of beings. Those possessed gain immense power, but their minds become twisted. Each fragment is a vicious god that cannot be killed. Chiwen sends Ji Ling away from the Shilin Sect, assigning only a taciturn young man named Li Jie to accompany him.
"Keep him safe."
"Yes."
The old locust tree in Suihua Town devours the living. A century-old giant turtle at the bottom of Mirror Lake turns heaven and earth upside down. Vengeful spirits in an abandoned village use illusions to shatter minds. An ancient dragon spirit crushes all opposition... Against the fragments of Jiuying, every deadly battle drives Ji Ling and Li Jie to the brink.
Amid the flashing blades and blood, Ji Ling meets a white-haired girl with fox ears.
Her name is Lu Wuyi.
She makes his heart race for the first time, and teaches him for the first time that some people are destined to slip away.
He does not know that a piece of his memory has been stolen.
He does not know that the Dragon God has seen a blank space in his consciousness.
And he knows even less that...
he was never a little fox at all.
Teacher, what happens next? Is this the end?
