No One Gets to Become a Demon

[A righteous demon-baiting demon slayer who willingly offers herself to the fiends vs. a half-dead future Ghost King who coughs blood in the wind]

At the end of the dynasty, chaos looms. Demons run rampant in Chang'an, and ghosts roam everywhere.

The emperor orders the Imperial Astronomical Bureau to establish the Twelve Demon Slayers and purge the realm of fiends.

But Chang'an is thick with resentment, and demons and ghosts vastly outnumber them. The Demon Slayers are ultimately wiped out.

From then on, Chang'an becomes a playground for demons and ghosts. The event goes down in history as the "Chang'an Demon Calamity."

After dying and losing her cultivation, Demon Slayer Gou Chen somehow returns to a time before the calamity.

At this point, the top-tier demons and ghosts who will one day bring disaster to the world are still ordinary people.

The "Red-Clad Blood Fiend," who will slaughter countless people, is still a little girl who hasn't yet reached adulthood.

The "Face-Stealing Demon," who will wreak havoc in the imperial harem, still slumbers at the bottom of a well in the Cold Palace.

And even the future Ghost King, Crown Prince Yi Huai, who will one day personally snap her neck, is still a nobody in the imperial palace.

Having witnessed firsthand the destructive power of these demons and ghosts, and unwilling to watch the world drown in bloodshed again, Gou Chen, then just an ordinary noblewoman in the capital, decides to nip the "Chang'an Demon Calamity" in the bud.

So the imperial consort is astonished when her younger sister, who was raised in a Taoist temple from childhood, cold-hearted and indifferent to worldly affairs, changes out of her Taoist robes, puts on red, and steps into the mortal world.

Even more unbelievable, the sister whose marriage fate was declared severed by a celestial master has developed a keen interest in the sickly Prince An.

"What exactly is Third Miss Song planning?"

"I want to marry you. I want to become Princess Consort An!"

Future Demon Slayer Song Nuan: For the people of Chang'an, I'll do whatever it takes to keep the future Ghost King alive.

Future world-destroying Ghost King Li Yu: She loves me so much.

Much later

Li Yu: "What am I to you, exactly? Your husband, or merely a barrier keeping countless demons and ghosts from entering the world?"
