Rumor has it that the infamous Rakshasa Woman of the martial world
is eight feet tall, with eyes like bronze bells, a voice like a temple bell, and a waist like a barrel.
The face beneath her mask is hideous enough to stop a child from crying at night.
She can uproot mountains and command the world. She's clearly a female demon.
She seems to prefer women, often cozying up to beauties, much to everyone's envy.
Even the renowned Shi Junzi has several beautiful confidantes who have abandoned him for someone else...
Shi Yanwen gave a weary smile. "It's all fake. Every bit of it. :)"
Later, when Shi Junzi returned to the home he'd been away from for so long, he saw his virtuous, gentle, delicate wife, who couldn't hurt a fly and looked ready to fall over in a breeze. A familiar mask lay beside her, and he was horrified.
"Oh no! That woman has gone after my wife too!"

[Content warnings]
1. Plot-driven wish fulfillment. The CP has little presence and is essentially a plot device. The focus is on the Shi family and their familial bonds.
2. The heroine can uproot mountains, lift a massive cauldron, and is a Tom Sue. She's no genius and isn't a traditional brains-over-brawn type.
3. Strictly speaking, this is a romance between a human and a nonhuman male. Canon couples are broken up.
4. Limited research into the original old series, with heaps of author-invented details. Read at your own discretion if that's not your thing.
