Based on two Chinese legends, "Chang Er Flies to The Moon" and "Hou Yi Shoots The Suns". The Heavenly Jade Emperor has an extra-marital affair which resulted in the birth of Chang Er. In order to appease the Heavenly Empress, he gives her all authority over the love affairs in heaven. A heavenly Archer, who is upright and righteous albeit rather tactless is banished to the Earth to help the common folk. There, he gets adopted into a family and learns to appreciate human relationships and love. Meanwhile in the moon, the moon fairy is getting bored. When Dragon escaped from heaven to create havoc on Earth, she eagerly volunteered to help recapture Dragon.
