Sikong Zheng, a master of esoteric arts from the Great Xia Kingdom a thousand years ago, was carried from Zhongnan Mountain to the Great Xia of 2024 by a flash of white light. With nothing to his name, he became a beggar. But after drawing a Qimen Dunjia formation in the dirt outside the Zhongtai Group with a tree branch, he was taken in by the young female CEO Yu Wenxuan and hired as a security guard.
From then on, he used Qimen Dunjia to help Yu Wenxuan overcome one crisis after another: a feng shui scheme targeting her ancestors' graves, soul-destroying curse magic, a broken chain of financing, a boardroom power grab, a frame-up by the Lingteng family, a master of disguise with a thousand faces, an assassination attempt by the Shadowblade, and a challenge from the Japanese. Step by step, he rose from security guard to special assistant and national treasure, and ultimately fell in love with Yu Wenxuan and married her.
At its heart, this is the story of an ancient man unfamiliar with modern society charging headlong through a modern city with the most traditional Qimen Dunjia arts. He gets into ridiculous scrapes, solves major problems, and finds himself in a sweet romance along the way.
