I Am the Demon Realm's Princess

[Jianghu + court intrigue + strong heroine + gentle-on-the-surface, ruthless-within male lead + genius cast, no fools]

[Content warning: The male lead is sexually timid in the early and middle stages, but gradually becomes more assertive later]

Conspiracies, crises... In an age of chaos, an extraordinary birth is what truly puts one's life in danger.

The Heavenly Realm possesses the Dream-Birthing Jade, the most prized treasure in all six realms. Though the realms have been at peace for more than two thousand years, that peaceful facade can shatter with a single blow.

She is Jicun Sheng, Crown Princess of the Demon Realm and its sole heir, wise and brave. In 2057, she saves Ye Zhiquan, the Heavenly Emperor's fourth son, at Mount Buzhou. Because of the Dream-Birthing Jade, her mother has remained unconscious for years, so she and her cousin Xin Ying travel to the Heavenly Realm to investigate how to treat the serious injuries caused by the jade.

He is Ye Zhiquan, the Heavenly Emperor's fourth son. He seems as gentle as water, but is actually a master schemer. For years, he has quietly built his power and plotted against the hearts of others.

The affection he showed her as a child made him dependent on her, and her present-day intelligence amazes him all the more. As he gradually comes to know her and fight by her side, she slips like a beam of light into his long-sealed heart. His silent feelings grow wildly until they burst forth, revealing a possessive desire he can neither hide nor bring himself to confess.
