Night Offerings in Longjing

[A new story is coming at the end of 2026: Borrow Me a Piercing Cloud Arrow. Please add it to your favorites!] Longjing has one hundred thousand humans and 1.4 million demons. Humans rule, demons are slaves, and demon tamers are revered. Demon tamers, who are skilled at controlling demons, come from the Purple Star Pavilion and serve as court mages. The nobles of Longjing regard demons as lowly vermin, like sheep and pigs. The demon tamers help them commit evil, and are ultimately torn apart by the demons' retaliation. The Purple Star Pavilion is no more. Shen Huan, daughter of the Pavilion Master of the Purple Star Pavilion and a traitor to Longjing, was only nine when the demons attacked the Purple Star Pavilion. She took the Pavilion's guardian demon, a great demon who protected the nation, and disappeared without a trace. Shen Huan: "A traitor? I was nine. What did I know? What great demon? My father said he was my child groom." After the Purple Star Pavilion fell, ten thousand demons invaded the imperial city. The Eldest Princess led the demon tamers in suppressing the demons, slaughtering 120,000 of them and sparing only one snake demon. She named him Bai Rong and kept him by her side. Eldest Princess: "I just like handsome men. Besides, he was only seven at the time, and already stunningly beautiful." After ten years of silence, Longjing regained its former glory. Shen Huan became a notorious name on the wanted list, with a reward of ten thousand taels of gold and a noble title for anyone who captured her alive. But have you ever heard of hiding in plain sight? Shen Huan smiles faintly. "Come on, let's return to Longjing and cure my husband's heart illness." P.S. In terms of screen time, the female lead is Shen Huan and the male lead is Bai Rong. The male and female leads aren't a couple. Each has their own pairing.
