But the good times don’t last. As Yun Xiang investigates the tragic case of the extermination of his former clan, he uncovers more terrifying secrets and things begin to take a turn for the worse. After experiencing deception, betrayal and separation, life and death, he realizes that Wantai, whose mission was to benefit people, has long since fallen from grace, and decides to stand up for what is right in his heart, even if it means sacrificing himself .
