After a lover's betrayal, the ancient dragon Tian Yao found himself badly wounded and heartbroken. The woman he loved betrayed him by stripping him of his dragon bones then sealing them in four directions. Only by luck did his soul escape. Now reborn, he encounters Yan Hui, who vows to protect him as he retrieves his missing bones.

Discovering a seal within a lake, Tian Yao sees his opportunity. After meeting Yan Hui, Tian Yao became hopeful, knowing she possessed a dragon that could break that seal. Tian Yao uses Yan Hui to retrieve his stolen body parts. Yan Hui then plans her escape only to fail.

Surprisingly, she finds their relationship deepening over time. Tian Yao admires Yan Hui's repeated efforts to save him, while Yan Hui appreciates the strong bond they have created. Mysteries will abound as Yan Hui comes to learn of her true origin.
