An old-fashioned, angsty romance with forbidden love, lots of authorial liberties, and a fast pace.
A little Taoist with absurd fighting skills but not much sense goes down the mountain to catch a demon for the first time. Instead, he meets a gentle and beautiful fox demon, and his face turns red before he can even make a move.
One-on-one
Fox demon gong x Taoist priest shou
Content warnings:
1. The shou is the sort who is determined to guide demons toward goodness, only to fall into darkness himself. Afterward, he figures he might as well give up and become a great demon alongside them. He's a deeply conflicted protagonist.
2. Neither the gong nor the shou is perfect at the start. They grow over the course of the story.
3. The point of view shifts, but it's mostly from the shou's perspective.
Theme: Nothing in this world is harder than being good
Come on, come on, come on! Trojan horse
