Synopsis
Xie Lian is the Crown Prince of Xianle and is naturally gifted. Having a strong will to save the common people, he underwent training until he ascended to the Heavens as a martial god. However, he was banished twice. 800 years later, Xie Lian ascends a third time, but now, having no devout followers, he’s known as the laughingstock of the three realms. In order to accumulate merit, he descends to the mortal realm and makes a fresh start as a Heavenly Official, laboriously collecting odds and ends. One day, while returning home from collecting various odds and ends, he encounters a mysterious young man who introduces himself as San Ran.
Characters & Voice Actors
Xie Lian: Hiroshi Kamiya
Originally the Crown Prince of Xianle who underwent training. When he was 17, during the procession of the Mid-Autumn Festival—a festival which takes place on the 15th day of the lunar month—he saved a child who fell from the castle walls. As he saved the child, his festival mask came off and thus a famed anecdote and one of the Four Famous Tales, “The Crown Prince Who Pleased the Gods” was born. The same year, he ascended to the Heavens as a martial god. The statue of the Crown Prince of Xianle depicts him with a sword in one hand and a flower in the other, giving him another name, the Flower Crown Martial God.
