As part of his punishment, the Emperor placed a curse upon Lo-Pan which left Lo-Pan formless and with no flesh. However, Lo-Pan managed to get a decript old body and temporarily possessed it by supplication to the gods. But this did not free Lo-Pan from his curse with the only way of him gaining his Human form permanently was by marrying a woman with green eyes. By marrying her, Lo-Pan would please the God of the East, Ching Dai. But in order to satisfy the Emperor, he was also required to sacrifice her. To that end, he spent centuries looking for a bride that would free him from his supernatural imprisonment.
