Plot

The story begins with two sisters in a traditional Chinese bath, where they both speak of immortality. It then shows that same mysterious woman (named Blanca) while she was on a mission to assassinate a Tang general. However, she is caught and is involved in a magical battle which results in her submerging into water and losing her memories. She is rescued by a man, Xuan (Xu Xian), who takes her to his home, Snake Catcher village, where the villagers catch snakes for the general, as snakes were thought to aid in immortality. Reluctant at first, Blanca is skeptical about Xuan. However, after spending some time with him (and with the reveal that she has magic powers) she starts to fall for him.
