From the moment Hua Qian Gu was born, the heavens wept and flowers withered—an ominous sign of the extraordinary fate that awaited her. Orphaned young and burdened with a mysterious scent that draws demons and spirits near, she sets off on a journey to protect herself and uncover her destiny. Her path leads her to Mount Shu in search of guidance, but fate diverts her to the Chiang Lu sect, where she meets the cold yet compassionate Bai Zi Hua—a man destined to become her teacher, protector, and forbidden love.

As Qian Gu learns the delicate balance between light and darkness, she is caught in a web of emotion, duty, and fate. Torn between three men—Bai Zi Hua, her untouchable master; Dong Fang Yu Qing, her loyal guardian; and Sha Qian Mo, the enigmatic demon lord—she must navigate a world of celestial conflict and sacrifice, where love may be the greatest danger of all.
