The Jing family genealogy contains this verse: "Seven stars guard the clan, bringing wealth and honor; eight flaws enter the void to cultivate longevity; nine trials and ten tribulations break evil spells; the Qitu's dark laughter reveals the Heavenly Gate."
My name is Jing Guicheng. My father, Jing Bancheng, is a charitable man who made our family rich across the region. I was born on an Eight Flaws Day and brought my mother's death upon her. At ten, I was sent to the eminent monk Jing Kong at Baihua Temple, where I kept company with Lu Lu, a hunter's daughter. At seventeen, disaster struck the Jing family, and I left the mountain. My master then sent the stablehand, Old Bao, with a white crow, saving me from the sorcery of an evil cult. A hundred members of the Jing family were killed by poisonous insects, and Guicheng suffered a crushing defeat. At twenty, I returned to Baihua Mountain and was taught the Seven Star Great Art. A divine physician changed my face, and I entered the Ma household under an assumed name as a live-in son-in-law, only to be recognized by my enemies. Fortunately, a beauty came to my rescue. At twenty-five, I returned to Guicheng, married a woman from a distinguished family, and joined forces with warriors to fight bandits and defend our home.
The powerful families of Guicheng collude with one another, while rogue sorcerers wreak havoc, summoning strange beasts from mountains and seas to devour their rivals. With family vengeance behind me and the people's grievances ahead, I have no choice but to study shamanic arts, enter the underworld, explore ancient tombs, and brave the Beast Mountain, vowing to wage war against evil.
