Synopsis
A Deng, an amnesiac lamp-bearer carrying an ever-burning bronze soul lamp, wanders through the mortal world.
During her travels, she encounters Xie Jingchen, a general who has been wrongfully accused by his family and is now wanted by the imperial court.
The two join forces, working together to solve eerie mysteries—from a century-old haunting in the Liu mansion to strange occurrences in a border military camp.
As they peel back the layers of these cases, they gradually uncover the dusty truth of a great war between humans and demons that took place three hundred years ago.
A Deng and a vengeful shadow named Ying turn out to be twin sisters who were once one soul split in two—though it is unclear what drove them apart.
Meanwhile, the Xie family has been bound by fate for generations to guard the lamp, and is sworn to stop the demon leader lurking in the human world.
Together, they embark on a series of thrilling adventures to protect the peace of the mortal realm.
