Ming Sui, the son of a wealthy merchant in the capital, is inexplicably caught up in a bizarre murder case, where he meets Li Shen, the leader of a sect that dominates the southwest.
Sect Leader Li isn't even bothered by being suspected. Looking into Young Master Ming's unusual deep gray eyes, he calmly feeds him a pill called "Longevity Elixir."
Ming Sui is horrified. He has no idea what kind of dangerous medicine it is, but with no choice but to submit, he swallows it with tears in his eyes, thinking that from now on he'll have to let this local king push him around.
He doesn't know that this forceful man from afar is the refugee boy his family rescued years ago.
Li Shen recognizes Ming Sui the moment he sees him and decides then and there to do everything in his power to protect his benefactor.
But the sect leader is too young, and factions within his clan are beginning to stir. Ming Sui, whom Li Shen treasures above all else, becomes their target.
How could Li Shen let his precious darling brave danger alone? So he takes the young master along to his own lair.
In Li Shen's hometown of Jianzhou, Ming Sui discovers a different world and meets friends of all kinds. Some live among insects, while others command flocks of crows. They seem terrifying, but each has a kind and upright heart.
Yet beneath the surface, their seemingly peaceful days are full of undercurrents. Ming Sui's arrival foreshadows the start of a conspiracy. The truth concealed beneath layer upon layer of fog even reveals a mystery surrounding his origins and bloodline.
Only then does Ming Sui realize that his hidden ability is intricately connected to this wondrous land...
