The story takes place in the late Eastern Jin Dynasty. The long-lost Qingluan Mirror and Lishang Sword reappeared. It is rumored that those who possess both objects will be able to gain the powerful power to dominate the world. Zi Mei (played by Tian Li), the Holy Maiden of the Dragon Cult, is the only one who knows the whereabouts of the two objects. However, she became obsessed with practicing martial arts and died soon. Before she died, Zi Mei told the secret of the Qingluan Mirror and Lishang Sword to Yuan Qingsuo (played by Zhang Hanyun), the heir of the Dragon Cult, hoping that Yuan Qingsuo could find the two objects and hand them over to loyal and upright people. In this way, Yuan Qingsuo hid his real name and pretended to be Li Ezi, the niece of Mrs. Sikong, and embarked on a journey to find treasures. Along the way, Yuan Qingsuo met Lanling King Gao Changgong (played by Chen Yi) and Northern Zhou Dasikong Yuwen Yong (played by Peng Guanying). As time went on, the three fell into a tangled and bizarre love affair.
