Lin Zhao, a young girl in Qingxi Village who was bullied, accidentally met Hongfu and her son "Xiaohua", a mysterious person who lived in seclusion in the mountains. After seven years of companionship, she thought she was just an ordinary neighbor, but she didn't know that Hong Fu was actually the leader of the "Feng Yun Order", a mysterious organization in the world, and that "Xiao Hua"'s life experience hid the secret of subverting the martial arts world.
Stepping into the Lingxiao Sect, facing her fellow sect members with outstanding spiritual roots and distinguished backgrounds, in order to survive, she casually made up a lie: "My mother, the master of the order is Hong Fu." From then on, she wore the vest of "the daughter of the order master" and worked every step in the immortal sect. She restrained her sharp edge and lived her life as a calm and decisive disciple in the eyes of the elders. However, in a deserted place, she clenched her fists because of her humble birth. She could only use her resourcefulness and ruthlessness to carve out a path to immortality created by others using magic tools and spiritual stones.
Leilinggen elder Mo Yuan took a fancy to her "power behind" and accepted her as his disciple, but he didn't know that this power was fake, only her tenacity under the fire root was real; Shen Jinghong, a childhood sweetheart, had been obsessed with her for many years, but didn't understand the struggle behind her mask; and the rumored wisdom was close to Xie Xuan, the evil and ruthless master of Xuanji Pavilion, is actually the "Xiaohua" back then. He regards her as a key chess piece to subvert the Lingxiao Sect, and wants her to ascend to the top of power as a mortal, avenge her father, and make a fatal move in his grand chess game that spans two generations.
When the lies were exposed by blood, and when his relatives died tragically and became inner demons, Lin Zhao shed all disguises, used his delusion as a blade, and fought his way out of the gap between the path to immortality and the machinations. She was once a chess piece at the mercy of others, but she will eventually become the chess player - this time, what she wants is not someone's protection, but to let the entire world of immortality understand: Even a small mortal can still go against fate and say, My way is up to me and not to God!
