Lin Yan, an unlucky graduate who can't find a job, returns to his hometown to arrange his grandfather's funeral. There, the ancestral Manual of Celestial Signs recognizes him as its master, gifting him a pair of "Eyes of Celestial Tracing."
From then on, the streets gain a young fortune-teller with a roadside stall, and the mystical world gains a freak talent who appears out of nowhere.
When others read fortunes, they say, "Your brow is dark. Spend money to ward off disaster." When he reads fortunes, he says, "This 'disaster' of yours started when someone poured lead into your family's ancestral grave thirty years ago."
At the antique market, he finds a family heirloom belonging to a wealthy clan. With a single word about the feng shui of a home, he sends the richest man in town packing in the middle of the night.
His partners are tougher than the next: Wang Pangzi, greedy and afraid of death but utterly loyal; Su Qingyuan, a master appraiser; and Chen Mo, bold and righteous.
Just when he thinks life is about to get better, the Calamity-Breaking Sect resurfaces after lying low for a hundred years. It plans to sever the land's ley lines and seize the world's fortune.
Lin Yan makes a quick calculation. "All right, I'll take this one."
