With the annihilation of their king, Ni Lun (Yu Bo), the surviving members of the demon clan had no choice but to flee the immortal realm. Among those escaping to the mortal realm was the demon king's daughter, Chong Zi (Yang Chao Yue). With an uncertain future ahead of her Chong Zi's life is forever altered when the immortal, Chu Bu Fu (Gao Han) steps in to help. Grateful to her savior, Chong Zi is determined to repay his kindness by cultivating herself at Nanhua. But cultivation at Nanhua is not to be, as the prophecies surrounding Chong Zi predict she has a grim and terrible fate. Turned away by Nanhua, Chong Zi is surprised when the venerable Luo Yin Fan (Jeremy Tsui) agrees to take her on as his only disciple. Promising to protect her, the two might have shared an incredible life, had fate not decided to play a cruel hand. Meeting again in her second life, Chong Zi once again finds herself the disciple of the honorable Yin Fan, but again fate deals them a crushing blow.

After being saved by the immortal Chu Bufu (Gao Han), she becomes determined to cultivate at Nanhua but is turned away due to the miasma she was born with. It has been foretold that she will become a demon. At this time, the venerable Luo Yinfan (Xu Zhengxi) surprisingly accepts Chongzi as his disciple. From then on, she becomes his only apprentice. Chongzi is very reliant on Luo Yinfan and wishes for nothing more than to be by his side. In turn, Luo Yinfan promises to protect her. Alas, a conspiracy leads to Chongzi's imprisonment. Luo Yinfan is unable to do anything to help and even has to "finish" her off for the sake of peace. In her second life, Chongzi comes to Nanhua again. Luo Yinfan recognizes her in one glance.
