Demon Tribe Crown Prince, Come Home

Blurb:

[Beautiful, proud, self-serving woman x aloof, restrained, untouchable beauty]

Zhu Rong transmigrates into another world as a half-demon and unexpectedly becomes bound to a great demon.

The great demon was once a close aide to the Demon Emperor. After being demoted, he devoted himself to finding the missing Crown Prince of the Demon Clan, hoping to use him as a bargaining chip to get his position back.

Zhu Rong spends nearly three years searching in vain, only to have three demon hunters show up.

One is a purehearted girl, one is a loudmouthed amateur, and the last is their senior brother.

The senior brother has a face like carved jade, eyes like cold stars, and an aloof aura that stretches three meters around him.

Zhu Rong is smitten: smitten with the urge to kill.

That very night, she and Ying Wusheng fight their way to the underground cavern where the great demon is imprisoned.

Under the hazy moonlight, the great demon sees that familiar face and cries out in alarm: "Stop! He's our Crown Prince!"

Zhu Rong, whose bone fan is about to slice the Crown Prince's throat: ?

The Demon Clan's Crown Prince became a demon hunter. His father must be thrilled to death.

To send the Crown Prince home, Zhu Rong and Ying Wusheng set off on a journey toward each other.

She schemes and deceives him, while he suspects and tests her. Doesn't that count as a journey toward each other?

Who would have thought that, after all her deception, Zhu Rong would actually manage to get Ying Wusheng hooked?

Under the night sky, Ying Wusheng said discreetly, "Once my junior brother and sister can stand on their own, I'll ask Master to let me leave. I'll go live in a scenic little town in Jiangnan..."

Zhu Rong, who lives in a scenic little town in Jiangnan, smiled and agreed. Then she dug out his demon core and faked both their deaths.

Ying Wusheng was, without a doubt, sent back to the Demon Realm. And Zhu Rong?

Of course she went back to kill the great demon who had been threatening her.

Not long after meeting Zhu Rong, Ying Wusheng decided she was hypocritical, dangerous, and affected.

Zhu Rong wanted to put on an act, and he was happy to play along.

But somehow, things started to go off course...

In an illusion, Zhu Rong accidentally fell off a cliff. He knew she wouldn't be in danger, but after hesitating, he jumped after her anyway.

Never mind, that cliff was pretty terrifyingly high.

When she fell into the water, it was the perfect chance to see if Zhu Rong was a demon. But he couldn't stop himself from biting his finger and putting it in her mouth to send her spiritual energy.

Never mind, he shouldn't have used such a dangerous way to check.

After going to great lengths to cure Zhu Rong's poison, he accidentally discovered that she'd been carrying the antidote all along. Clearly, she'd had ulterior motives.

But as Ying Wusheng looked at Zhu Rong's pale face, he turned away and let a demon destroy the sachet holding the antidote.

Never mind, she hadn't hurt anyone yet.

Ying Wusheng knew Zhu Rong must be hiding a secret. He simply chose to keep quiet.

He thought about how to confess his feelings and how to become a better match for Zhu Rong. It never occurred to him that all along, she only wanted to send him home to be that ridiculous Crown Prince of the Demon Clan.

Ying Wusheng nearly hated her. But when they met again and he looked at her ever-smiling face, asking whether she hated him...

After three seconds of eye contact, Ying Wusheng leaned against Zhu Rong's shoulder and said, "I love you."

Never mind, at least she hadn't left him out when she was hurting people.
