The background of the story takes place in the 1930s and 1940s. The leading female character Lan Ying, played by Dong Xuan, inherits her mother's skills and is a great magician famous throughout Shanghai. She is highly skilled, intelligent and generous, and what's more rare is that she has a kind and chivalrous heart. In addition, Dong Xuan's appearance this time is different from the traditional image of the magician in the public's mind. Underneath her flowery beauty, she has national justice in her heart and vows to avenge her mother. In the end, she gained a congenial and sweet love.
