Ancient China, the water chestnut village. Xie Lian's dilapidated shrine, where the thin walls betray every sound. Nan Feng and Fu Yao, arriving to brief him on a demon capture, hear strained moans through the paper windows. Fearing for the Martial God's safety, they burst inside and are met with a shocking sight: Xie Lian and the supreme Ghost King Hua Cheng are intimately entwined on the rush mat. Despite their profound embarrassment and fear of the immensely powerful ghost, the heavenly officials cannot tear their eyes away.
