Shen Tanghua is an ancestral corpse burner who bids farewell to the deceased in front of the incinerator of the funeral home every day. Until a female corpse that cannot be burned appears, and the soul cries that she was burned alive. She is forced to join forces with the Celestial Master Gu Xuanqing who is tracking the disappearance case. The two discovered that every abnormal corpse pointed to a massacre a hundred years ago, and Shen Tanghua's short life, the truth about Meng Sanniang's disfigurement, and A Yuan's identity as a ghost baby were all hidden in a burned genealogy. When Zhao Gui's stolen bronze mirror reflects the cracks in the ghost gate, Bai Zhao's scalpel cuts through the chest of the incorruptible corpse - the corpse-burner's fire can not only save the dead, but also ignite the fate of the living.
