Yi Lian traveled from the twenty first century into the body of Murong Qi Qi. When she woke up, she was in a broken house of a nunnery beaten half to death. She is rescued by Mozun, the head of Moyu and adopted as his daughter. There she learned martial arts, poison and medicine. She stayed there for five years. When Longze Jing Tian returned victorious after a battle, her father sent her back to the capital, because of the arranged marriage with Longze Jing Tian. Both she and Longze Jing Tian wants to break the engagement.
After a misunderstanding created by her on purpose, Longze Jing Tian broke off the engagement. When she is free, the emperor made her a princess and wanted her to marry the demon wang (king). Originally, the bride was his most favorite daughter, but it’s rumored that the demon wang is vicious and his eight other brides died on the wedding night. So he made the useless Murong Qi Qi the sacrifice instead, and Murong Qi Qi’s father agreed. The demon wang turned out to not be as rumored and they fell in love with each other.
