Synopsis

Zhong Kui, an immortal demon hunter, is relegated from the mortal world by the Heavenly Court and loses all his memories. He becomes the young man Mu Tianran.

By chance, he breaks the boundary and leaves the village of Fulu, a place where humans, demons, and devils coexist peacefully.

He is forced to go into the unknown human world with the protection of others.

He befriends Yang Renzhi, the young master of the Tian Lan Hai Pavilion, Ling Xi, a mysterious demon hunter, and Ying Su, a wilful and intelligent demon girl.

They are all together in a quest to protect the world by eliminating demons and helping the weak.

On one adventure after another, Mu Tianran is caught up in his destiny. He first becomes a member of the demon-removal agency, Tian Lan Hai Ge, and then is taken captive by the demons and inexplicably becomes the leader of the demons.

Accidents follow, but Mu Tianran is unperturbed and plays with the world. Unbeknownst to him, a conspiracy is unfolding around him...
