The opera tells the love story between White Lady and Xu Xian. White Lady, a white snake spirit, encountered Xu Xian at the West Lake. They fell in love and got married. Fahai, a monk, believed that a human being should not marry a spirit. Therefore, he sowed discord between the couple and brought obstacles and misunderstandings to them. At the end, White Lady told the truth to Xu Xian and both expressed their love and made up with each other.
