Time to dust off your celestial robes — the fantasy crowd’s about to be fed again! Word’s come in from Weibo that the brand-new Xianxia drama “The Unclouded Soul” (also known as Xiao Yao) is gearing up for release.
Starring the brilliant Tan Songyun and the ever-charming Hou Minghao, this one’s shaping up to be a proper visual treat.

Power, Desire, and a World on the Brink
The Unclouded Soul takes us deep into an age-old conflict between humans and demons — a fight sparked by the legendary Divine Jade Spring, said to grant any wish to whoever claims it.
Sounds lush, right? Except that kind of power brings chaos, greed, and wars that stretch across centuries.
Amidst the madness, there’s Xiao Yao (Tan Songyun) — a free-spirited lass who couldn’t care less about worldly ambition.
Her peaceful life takes a sharp turn when she stumbles into the Valley of Ten Thousand Demons and accidentally wakes Hong Ye (Hou Minghao), the fearsome Demon King who once ruled the realm.
But here’s the twist — Hong Ye’s no simple villain.
After countless reincarnations, he’s learned that the Divine Spring isn’t a blessing at all.
It’s a mirror reflecting the darkest desires of the heart, capable of tearing the world apart.
As the pair journey through bizarre realms, solving eerie mysteries and unmasking ancient conspiracies, their bond slowly becomes the light within all that darkness.
