Yunlin City is a bustling, modern city of ordinary people. Beneath the shadows, gods, demons, and monsters stir like hidden currents.
She is Shen Ji. Though she wears the face of a 24-year-old, she has lived for a thousand years. The only half-god, half-demon in the Three Realms, she bears an incomprehensible power of chaos. For a thousand years, the hypocritical divine realm tried to recruit her, then discarded her when she was no longer useful. The brutal demon realm sought to seize her and tame her into a weapon. Endless lies and struggles wore away every emotion she had, leaving only utter coldness and numbness. She went into hiding in the human realm, seeking nothing more than a quiet corner to call her own.
A series of supernatural murders that defy reason ties her tightly to a five-person major crimes unit. There is Lu Zheng, a stern captain who fiercely protects his own; Su He, a gentle yet resilient profiler; Jiang Ye, a hot-blooded, impulsive officer; Lin Xiaoman, a sweet and dependable tech geek; and Gao Shen, a perceptive, composed veteran cop. These ordinary people, who believe in justice and hold fast to their humanity, have no ulterior motives. With nothing but the bonds of comrades and family, they slowly pry open the walls around her frozen heart.
From being dragged into cases against her will to making an exception and stepping in to help, from watching indifferently to actively protecting others, Shen Ji breaks free of the thousand-year game of fate even as the divine and demon realms close in on her at every turn. At last, she finds where her heart belongs.
There are no tangled romances, only comrades bound together through life and death. Watch as this orphan of mixed blood rejects both godhood and demonkind amid the power struggles of the Three Realms, choosing instead the warmth of ordinary human life. With her power of chaos, she bears witness to how mortal beings can stand alongside the gods, and learns that understanding the human heart is the greatest power of all.
