What would a new world look like, if one were to be created?

Everything returns to chaos, and all things are reshuffled.

Who will make the first move in this new game of chess?

Xuanyuan is the leader of Team III in the Inspection Unit of Yucheng Research Institute.

He and his fellow team members have spent years traversing the boundary between yin and yang, dealing with and containing evil spirits and malevolent creatures that run amok.

One case after another, strange phenomena multiplying, and ever more bizarre evil spirits wreaking havoc everywhere.

Their opponent stays hidden behind the fog, laying plans step by step and drawing Xuanyuan into a carefully prepared trap.

As he untangles one eerie case after another, Xuanyuan finally catches a glimpse of the mastermind behind it all.

“What is it you want?” Xuanyuan asked in a low voice.

The other person chuckled. Their tone was casual, but concealed an ambition capable of bringing everything crashing down. “To topple the first domino.”

“To use the old world as bait, and put the gods on trial.”

Should Xuanyuan carry on, bound by old debts? Or abandon the old world and let the dominoes keep falling?

Xuanyuan, which side will you choose this time?

Theme: The way of Heaven takes from those with too much and gives to those without enough; the way of humanity takes from those without enough and offers it to those with too much.
