[One Heroine, Multiple Love Interests / Male Leads Are Devoted / Powerful Men / Corruption / Forced Love / Yandere / Rivals Fighting for Her] Ning Xiao was an orphan adopted by a Buddhist monk. He raised her, and she secretly fell in love with him. After living again, Ning Xiao went from a pure-hearted Buddhist girl who followed the precepts to a wanton, vengeful demoness. In her previous life, right up until she died, she couldn’t even get a kiss from the wicked monk Lian Ji, though she was in his arms. After making a marriage pact with the Ghost Emperor in the underworld and returning to the world of the living, the first thing she did was “invite” Lian Ji to the woodshed in her new home and take out her pent-up fury on him... At the market, a prince from the Western Regions caught a glimpse of her and fell in love at first sight. He asked the emperor to grant him her hand in marriage, wanting her to marry far away in the Western Regions as a political bride. Defying the imperial decree would get her entire clan executed... Ning Xiao: “Lian Ji refuses to acknowledge me and has no plans to take me home. If I can’t marry him in this life, then it doesn’t matter who I marry. If marrying the prince will keep my family rich and safe, then I’ll do it. If I’m unhappy, I’ll find a way to escape.” - Later, Lian Ji crossed deserts and braved snowstorms to find her, but when they met, all he said was that he had come to spread Buddhist teachings. She was having the time of her life in a foreign country, eating well, and the king treated her like a treasure. He stared through the window at her silhouette, entwined with another man’s, cast against the window of the castle across the way. The prayer beads in his hand snapped, and he knelt on the floor, picking them up and trembling with rage. She had kissed “lions,” “foxes,” “wolfdogs,” and “venomous snakes”...but she would never kiss him again. She gave birth to little “lions,” little “foxes,” little “wolfdogs,” and little “venomous snakes,” but not one little “monk”! He was completely devastated, so pent up that he injured himself, and swore he would carry her home even if it killed him...
