[Synopsis]
Twenty years ago, Mu Qingge, the head of the Xishan Sect, sacrificed her life-giving "Golden Elixir" to seal a spiritual spring within her disciple Su Yishui's body to save the human world from an impending demon threat. However, her noble sacrifice was misunderstood, and she was branded a "demon leader" and killed by the four major sects. As she died, Su Yishui finally learned the truth. He risked his life to find the "Tree of Reincarnation" and, at the cost of half his own Golden Elixir, summoned his master's soul back to the world. Twenty years later, Mu Qingge is reborn as a sickly girl named Xue Ranran. Su Yishui, guided by fate, takes her as his disciple, vowing to protect her this time. But as the seal begins to weaken, the evil sorcerer Dun Tian plots to create new demons using the power of the spiritual spring.
