[Not your mainstream angst romance. No transmigration, no being reborn, no golden finger.]
[Two female leads + tortured romance between a demon and a Daoist + past and present lives + 1v1 + a small ensemble cast]
[Historical fantasy with a touch of xianxia. An angst romance, an angst romance, an angst romance. We’re saying it three times because it matters. If you can’t handle it, leave now.]
[There’s a scene early on where a Daoist leaves a demon grievously injured. If you can’t handle that, run.]
[There’s a pursuit of a wife, but no crematorium-style redemption arc. The Daoist does suffer, but there’s no vengeful redemption arc. If you can’t handle it, hail a ride and get out.]
[The Daoist has been engaged since childhood. If you can’t handle that, take the high-speed train and run.]
[The above is the author losing it during the spoiler warning stage. The actual synopsis begins below.]

[Shen Qingxu, a Daoist sect’s chosen prodigy with the purest yin and yang blood] X [Lin Jing, a banyan demon who took human form after a thousand years and wants to be a good person]
Lin Jing, a banyan demon who has lived for a thousand years in a mass grave without taking human form, meets Shen Qingxu, a genius Daoist who has practiced for nearly a hundred lifetimes without ever succeeding.
Lin Jing has witnessed how each of Shen Qingxu’s lives ends, treating her as a source of sustenance that belongs to her alone.
Lin Jing isn’t human and doesn’t know how to act like one. She can’t understand human love or deceit. She only knows that people are complicated.
Later, she understands that Shen Qingxu doesn’t belong to her. Shen Qingxu saved her life, and Lin Jing learns that a drop of kindness should be repaid with a flood of gratitude.
But what does she have to offer? What can she do for Shen Qingxu?
Shen Qingxu doesn’t need her. Her very existence is the greatest disturbance in Shen Qingxu’s life...
Humans and demons follow different paths. She understands, she sees clearly, yet she still can’t escape the bond called love.
Is it one person’s mistake that ruins a lifetime, or do I only need you?
[Is it the moral decay of the Heavenly Dao, or the distortion of the Five Realms? Highlight this!]
The protagonist is a bit miserable in the early stage, but it will get better after a few chapters. You have to be mentally prepared [laughter] The setting and plot are pretty good 👍
I think it's quite interesting, I hope I can see the ending 😘
It's nice to look at, but it's pretty cruel in the front.
It can be pretty
Lao Da, you are back 😢
