The Qishan Wen clan is the strongest clan in power, and is treating the people in the most tyrannical way. To put a stop to this, the other four big clans - the Gusu Lan clan, the Yunmeng Jiang clan, the Lanling Jin clan and the Qinghe Nie clan - come together to take back the power and overthrow Wen, in what becomes known as the “Sunshot Campaign.”
The Yiling Patriarch, Wuxian Wei, fought very well in this battle, but because of his power and mastery of the demonic path, he ended up being feared by the people. They would criticize his existence and would eventually come to demand his death.

Now, thirteen years later...
Due to a ritual Wuxian Wen is resurrected on Earth where he meets yet again with his old friend Wangji Lan, from the Gusu Lan clan, and his own brother, Cheng Jiang, from the Yunmeng Jiang clan.
But, of course the people have not forgotten about the past and before long, they start to be suspicious of him...

Everything started back when Wuxian was a young boy...
