Blurb: Huayue, a divine emissary devoted to the Dao, uses a magical artifact called the Time-Space Mirror to travel ten thousand years into the future, to a world where the Demon God is about to awaken. She hopes to revive her own god.
All she has to do is find the real Demon God and kill him. Then her god will awaken.
But as soon as she arrives, she encounters a dying young man.
He is covered in blood and grime, but his eyes are so pure they seem capable of cleansing this filthy world, slaughtered by monsters.
At death's door, he reaches out a pale hand to her. "Big sister, save me."
Moved by compassion, Huayue saves him. She never expected him to cling to her from then on.
Later, the young man accompanies her as she hunts demons and monsters, sees the most beautiful scenery in the mortal world, and crosses the ghostly city by the Netherworld River. At last, in the darkest abyss of the North Sea of Wangwang, they find the awakened Demon God and successfully slay him.
With her mission accomplished, she only wants to go home. But after the usually sweet and harmless young man, who always calls her Big Sister, begs in vain for her to stay, the Demon God's mark appears on his forehead.
Holding her magical artifact, the Time-Space Mirror, he gazes at her with obsessive madness. "I told you not to leave me, Big Sister. Why do you insist on disobeying me...?"
Huayue, who has lost her cultivation along with her artifact, looks at the young man, whose demonic aura is powerful enough to destroy the world, and falls silent.
Righteous heroine x scheming, unhinged male lead
One-on-one romance, happy ending.

I Picked Up a Wish-Granting Dragon: Nainai is a healer with little spiritual power. One day, she picks up an injured dragon spirit.
Whenever she has a moment, she tells the dragon spirit about the herbs she can't find, the snacks she wants to eat, and the clothes she likes.
Every time she does, those things appear at home the next day.
So one lonely night, Nainai tentatively makes an outrageous wish to the little dragon spirit.
*
After failing his thirty-third tribulation, the Demon Venerable reverts to his original form and is rescued by a young female doctor.
The little doctor is rather dim. Despite having cultivated for who knows how many years, she's still only at the Foundation Establishment stage.
To repay her, he often grants her small, trivial wishes.
Until one day, the little doctor wishes for a husband who is tall, mighty, beautiful, the strongest in the Twelve Continents, and good in bed...
The Demon Venerable, who has renounced love and believes he fits the bill perfectly, falls into deep thought.
--
On the evening of the fifth day after making her wish, Nainai returns from gathering herbs and pushes open the door. A naked man with stunning features and snow-white hair cascading like a waterfall is lying on her bed.
Some time later, Nainai makes another wish to the little dragon spirit: Please take back my last wish. I only want a human husband who is respectable, gentle and considerate, celibate, and has only one...
But for some reason, this wish doesn't come true!
Theme: Face hardships and never give in.
