Deep in the Night: The Former Young Master of the Immortal Sect Works Hard to Pay Off His Debts

[Poverty-stricken leader × beauty-obsessed, shopping-crazy heiress] [Cold-blooded killer commander × cunning, foxy beauty of the martial world] [Tsundere former young lord × mischievous former young princess] [Cultivation + martial world + imperial court + political intrigue + suspense + mutual redemption] Multiple couples, an ensemble cast in the martial world and imperial court, no angst, happy ending.

Once, he was the son of the foremost figure in the immortal sects, brimming with ambition and destined for a bright future.

Now, he's Xuan Che, the ruthless blade of the imperial secret service known as the Web, buried under a mountain of debt.

Zhao Zihuan, now known as Xuan Che, former young lord of the Tiandi Alliance, and currently the Web's hardest-working employee (and its biggest debtor). His goal in life: pay off Prince Yan's “loan for saving his life” (with compound interest), then take his “family” (the surviving members of the former Tiandi Alliance) and escape this blood-soaked life for a quiet retirement (crossed out) and seclusion.

Then he met her: Shen Qingyan, former princess of the Prince of Ning's household, now a little fox of the martial world. She's greedy, afraid of death, and ruthless when she strikes. Clever and mischievous, she's the perfect foil for a cold-faced tsundere like him.

“Hey, Executioner, want to split the spoils from this mission?”

“…”

“Silence means you agree! And hey, you're blushing.”

From then on, another inescapable “creditor” joined him on his quest to repay his debts. Together, they unravel the imperial court's tangled plots, cut through the immortal sects' dark secrets, and search for a glimmer of light to cling to in the heart of the night.

(A lighthearted (?) tale of redemption, debt (the important part), and a group of not-so-normal killer colleagues.)
