In many old Chinese stories, the place with disputes can be called Underworld (Jianghu).

In a faraway and chaotic era, people keep complain and suffer the miserable life. At that time, there is a temple without any real monk, called “Ge-An Temple”. Rumor has it that people can convey their wishes to the statue of Monkey King in this temple. If the askers get the divine answer, their difficulties will be solved by the mysterious volunteers. This time, from the unknown asker "Fang Jin-Shan", what kind of difficult task will be delivered to those volunteers? When the temple's bell is sounded, it’s the show time for Underworld Rangers!
