Synopsis
The martial arts world was thrown into turmoil over the invincible treasure manual. Bai Jing, leader of the Phantom Palace, maintained neutrality with the manual but was betrayed by her husband Chai Yuguan.
After using her to eliminate the Jiuzhou King Shen Tianjun, Chai Yuguan allied with five major sects to besiege the Phantom Palace, resulting in Bai Jing's tragic death.
Young Bai Feifei witnessed her mother's demise and vowed revenge against her father and those involved.
A decade later, Bai Feifei used the manual as bait to stir the martial world, encountering chivalrous swordsman Shen Lang (tasked with escorting the manual), kind-hearted heiress Zhu Qiqi (daughter of Zhongzhou' richest man), and cunning strategist Wang Lianhua (young master of Yunmeng Manor). The four became increasingly entangled in the web of martial arts vendettas.
