Fang An was born in the small village of Fiong Xi, where she was raised by her mother and grandmother. Her father, a well-known dragon slayer, had never acknowledged her as his daughter due to her illegitimacy. Growing up, Fang An faced constant discrimination from the villagers and was often teased for her monocular appearance. Despite the challenges she faced, Fang An was taught to be strong and never give up by her mother and grandmother.
One day, when Fang An was fourteen years old, she heard the story of the white dragon Liu Baise. According to legend, the dragon appeared once every hundred years and whoever could defeat it would bring peace to the world. If no one succeeded, darkness would come and the average healthy human would not live beyond the age of 80-90. Fang An was determined to prove herself and be the one to defeat the dragon. She decided to leave the village and embark on a journey to Fei Mountain, where an old man named Fung Chen was rumored to train dragon slayers.
