Xianxia + political intrigue + hearing inner thoughts + antagonist male lead + mystery of her origins + a mix of sweetness and heartbreak
Of the hundred immortal maidens sacrificed to the Demon Lord Chong Ye, Sang Yunyi is the only survivor.
To stay alive, she acts all teary and timid on the outside, while her inner thoughts are a nonstop stream of desperate complaints.
What she doesn’t know is that this Asura King, feared throughout the Three Realms, can hear every thought she has.
He imprisons her in the Demon Palace, calling her a trophy of war when she is really his tranquilizer.
She acts obedient, but inside she criticizes everything about him, from his strategic plans to his hairstyle.
And in the midst of her complaints, he finds the key to breaking the deadlock and getting revenge.
A transmigrator who knows nothing of the plot, a Demon Lord burdened by a blood feud, and a game of mutual exploitation that begins with a sacrifice.
When Chong Ye discovers that the little immortal maid who can soothe his soul is the last survivor of the ancient Hanlian clan, a people the Immortal Realm wants wiped out, and that her blood is the key to breaking every seal, their cat-and-mouse game spirals completely out of control.
Chong Ye: “Little thing, just how many secrets are you hiding?”
Sang Yunyi (in her thoughts): [The secret is, I’m a good-for-nothing salted fish whose only skill is complaining. Boss, please don’t have any unrealistic expectations of me!]
