Meng Rannuo, the young heiress of the Bishui Sword Sect, first meets Xiao Huai when she joins her father and the other senior righteous martial artists in attacking the headquarters of the Demonic Cult.
Eighteen-year-old Xiao Huai stands alone, his gaze sweeping over everyone present. The Demonic Cult's leader has gone mad while practicing his martial arts, and Xiao Huai has exposed the martial arts alliance leader's plot to collude with the demon. He has nowhere left to turn.
"Uphold justice on Heaven's behalf?" Xiao Huai sneers. "When the Demonic Cult wiped out my entire family and I was abducted and tortured for a martial arts manual, no one came to uphold justice on Heaven's behalf!"
In front of the whole world, the young demon pulls open his collar. "I've carved it into my body. If anyone wants it, come and take it!" After saying this, he raises a palm and strikes the crown of his head. Laughing, he takes his own life.
The martial world descends into chaos, and the Bishui Sword Sect is dragged into it as well. Meng Rannuo's father is ambushed and killed. Three years later, Meng Rannuo is forced into a desperate situation by demons and dies at the foot of Baiyun Cliff.
She never expected to return to seven years earlier, to the day the Xiao family was destroyed.
To change the course of events at their very source, Meng Rannuo decides to leave the mountain early to gain experience and save Xiao Huai.
