The powerful demon-slaying sword is about to reappear in the world. Ta Yi Zhen Ren observes the celestial phenomena and senses that chaos is imminent, so he sends his disciple Ruo Chen to the human realm to guard the sword and find a new master for it. In the secluded He Yang Village, where peaceful villagers live, a sudden massacre turns the village into a sea of blood. Zhong Kui, who grew up in He Yang Village, avoids this disaster by going to the capital for the imperial exam. Upon his return, he finds that his lover, Qian Qian, has mysteriously disappeared, which resolves him to find her and avenge everyone. To this end, Zhong Kui seeks help from his master Ruo Chen, but is turned down. Out of loyalty and righteousness, Zhong Kui decides to descend the mountain alone. On his quest for clues, he encounters Liu Li, who is disguised as a man, and faces his opponent in a final showdown. The opponent uses sorcery to steal Liu Li's identification, but Liu Li exposes the opponent just as she is about to seize the divine medicine. However, Zhong Kui accidentally disrupts the gambling situation while chasing a fox demon, allowing the fox demon to steal the divine medicine. The furious opponent reveals their demonic form, forcing Zhong Kui and the escaping Liu Li to get involved in a battle with this demon. In a critical moment, Shang Guan Han appears and swiftly subdues the lesser demon. Liu Li recognizes that the young man in white is Shang Guan Han, the son of the Prime Minister, and seizes the opportunity to escape. Liu Li, who is actually a runaway princess from the palace, avoids being captured by Shang Guan Han while encountering various humans and demons, as well as extremely aggressive monsters, narrowly escaping harm until she meets Zhong Kui. Zhong Kui, relying on the treasure left to him by Ruo Chen, saves his life and becomes Liu Li's savior. Admiring him, Liu Li asks Zhong Kui to help recover the divine medicine stolen by the fox demon. The two arrive in Ling Du City and unexpectedly find that the "Saint" is actually Qian Qian, but Qian Qian seems not to recognize Zhong Kui. In Ling Du City, more and more people are transforming into monsters, trapping Zhong Kui and Liu Li among them. Shang Guan Han and his group combat the threat, and after many twists and turns, the three manage to escape. However, upon exiting, the citizens of Ling Du City identify Liu Li as a demon and plan to burn her alive. Zhong Kui and Ling Er engage in a fierce battle with the wolf demon, who attempts to deceive Zhong Kui by assuming Qian Qian's appearance. Zhong Kui and his companions nearly lose their lives and are powerless to fight back. At a crucial moment, Zhong Kui discovers the secrets left by Ruo Chen. It turns out that the demon-slaying sword in the Demon-Slaying Cave is not real; the sword has long been within Zhong Kui's heart. He is the sword, and the sword is him. Ultimately, Zhong Kui merges with the demon-slaying sword and perishes with the wolf demon. All turmoil finally comes to an end, and while the world mourns Zhong Kui, they do not know that he has entered the realm of ghosts, becoming the Celestial Master Zhong Kui.
