Plot
In ancient times, because of their ability to fly, the Yu Clan is regarded as gods by all. They live away from the people high up in the mountains, busy constructing a castle in the sky, much to the envy of others. One day, the castle explodes, causing an uproar in the Yu Clan. A human girl, Yi Fu Ling (Guan Xiaotong) who came to observe the castle, was being mistakenly pointed as the suspect. The king of Yu Clan, Feng Tian Yi (Zhang Ruoyun) tries his best to save and protect her, truly believing that she’s innocent of the accusation. As it turned out, it was a faction of the Yu Clan trying to start a war with the humans in order to expand their control. When Tian Yi understands the source of resentment, he and Fu Ling set out to defuse the growing hostility and impending war.
