A Laid-Off Good-for-Nothing Demon Catcher Picks Up a Child Who Turns Out to Be...

Everyone laughs at Shen Yanghao, calling him the biggest failure in the demon-hunting world.

The sole heir to the Shen family, he carries on an age-old human legacy, yet his cultivation is locked at Grade D. His performance ranks last, and he is met with nothing but cold stares, mockery, and rejection.

His family abandoned him, his company fired him, and everyone turned against him. With only fifty yuan in his pocket, he is alone, living at the darkest depths of society.

He endured every indignity and bore a fate no one knew about, scraping by on the edge of despair. Long ago, he had grown numb to the world's warmth and coldness.

Then, spending one yuan on two lollipops, he met a homeless boy dressed in black, nameless and alone in the world.

Taking pity on the boy's lonely plight, he gave him a name and a little place to call his own. He was the first person in this cold world to cherish and protect the boy, and to give him warmth and special affection.

No one knew that this clingy, sweet-natured child, who only wanted to snuggle up to him and beg for candy, was the first Demon Emperor, who had slept for countless ages and spent tens of thousands of years in solitude.
