Lingzhu Xianxian

y.

A blind, world-ending tribulation lightning bolt struck Ling Xianxian, scattering her soul to the winds.

The transformation and ascension tribulation she had spent ten thousand years in cultivation hoping for was ruined beyond repair.

Fortunately, a newly ascended Immortal Lord took pity on her and sent her broken, shattered remnant soul to the mortal world.

The Immortal Lord said, "Guide the people of 999 clans in the mortal world back to their proper places, and you may reclaim a sliver of your chance at immortality."

Ling Xianxian refused to believe in fate!

But after bolt upon bolt of heavenly lightning came crashing down on her, she was eventually forced to accept her lot.

"Damn heaven! You really have no heart!"

With tears of frustration, Ling Xianxian recruited talented people to strengthen her sect while also personally taking on the tribulation lightning for every clan member who ascended.

Her journey was full of hardship, her path strewn with setbacks!

Luckily, a formidable junior fellow disciple was willing to protect her with his life force. By a twist of fate, she gathered the Five Sources of Spiritual Power that every cultivator dreamed of, accomplished the great task of reviving her clan, and recovered her memories of her past life.

Only then did Ling Xianxian realize that this junior fellow disciple had never appeared in her memories of her past life.

"Mu Qingzhou, who are you, really?"

Mu Qingzhou fell silent for a moment. At last, as Ling Xianxian ascended to immortality, he said, "Senior Sister, in the end, I am still your junior fellow disciple."

The rest, perhaps, was not appropriate to say just then.

-

"I wonder if I might be so fortunate as to stay by your side forever, Senior Sister."

Mu Qingzhou waited for her through three lifetimes and watched over her in all three.

At last, as she returned to the sacred mountain and the snow began to melt, he voiced the wish he had kept buried for tens of thousands of years.

The chaos caused by the demon immortals remained unresolved, and the threat of the Demon God loomed ever closer.

But what did that matter?

After all she had been through, Ling Xianxian found the source of her spiritual power and experienced the full range of human emotions and desires.

When she finally returned to the divine realm and saw the sacred spring where her story with Mu Qingzhou had begun, she said,

"A Mu, at last I understand your pain."

When you ask what I wish for, all I want is an ordinary life by your side.

Coming soon: Catching Demons, I Caught My Female Boss. Desire Spirit x Demon Hunter

Yu Tian opened a demon-hunting company on the outskirts of the city and tirelessly kept hiring probationary assistants.

Day after day, year after year.

She coasted through life without any ambition!

Aside from doing the occasional good deed, getting a taste for fighting monsters, and devouring the malice of a few little demons, she spent her days curled up in the office, barely getting by with one probationary assistant after another.

She disdained mundane affairs and treated the glittering world as worthless.

Until one day.

A strange young man disrupted the life she had kept so carefully shut away and unexpectedly became her very first full-time assistant.

"Once you're made permanent, your salary is gone."

"Yes, boss."

"Once you're made permanent, you work all year without a day off."

"Yes, boss."

"Once you're made permanent..."

"Yes, boss."

...What's with all the "yes, boss"?

I haven't even finished talking!

Something strange is definitely going on.

But Yu Tian had never seen a "workaholic demon" so shameless.

With that kind of determination, why not succeed at something else?

Why insist on taking up a spot at her company and eating her food?

"Allow me to introduce myself. I'm He Yi, an active demon hunter of the Wushang Temple."

As soon as he finished speaking, a demon-binding rope wrapped around Yu Tian.

The desire within He Yi, which had been almost imperceptible, surged in an instant. Its sheer purity left Yu Tian stunned.

So his lack of desire was all an act!

But this silly boy actually thought she was a demon?

For some reason, the demon-binding rope around her suddenly went slack.

Yu Tian stumbled and fell right into He Yi's arms.

"You caught me? Then I guess I'm sticking with you."

She never thought that after living for so long, she could still misjudge someone.

Now that a meal ticket was right beside her, how could she possibly let him go?

Yu Tian couldn't help rubbing against He Yi's collar. She breathed in the scent of his desire and murmured with a soft, trembling voice, "So, mighty young Celestial Master, where are you taking me now?"

-

Ever since He Yi could remember, he had lived in a dilapidated Taoist temple hidden in the city center of S City.

His master had given him a pile of ancient books but had never taught him a single move.

Perhaps he was naturally gifted, because he somehow taught himself the art of demon hunting.

But on the day he mastered it, his master not only refused to look him in the eye, but also kicked him out of the temple in the middle of the night.

"Raising you all these years hasn't been easy! Now that you've learned a skill, go find a job and earn your own living!"

His master had a point.

He Yi went from place to place looking for work, but as soon as people heard he was a demon hunter, they treated him like a freak and threw him out.

So finding a job in this world really was that hard?

Until one night.

Following a trace of demonic energy, he arrived on the outskirts of the city and found a strange company.

Why was a company hiring in the middle of the night?

Something strange was definitely going on.

He worked hard and got hired as the boss's assistant.

At last, on the day he became a permanent employee, he caught his female boss with his own hands.

The demon who was cruel and heartless, and drained the blood of her own family.

But why didn't she react at all when bound by the demon-binding rope?

"You caught me? Then I guess I'm sticking with you."

As he wondered, Yu Tian fell toward him.

With a soft, fragrant beauty in his arms, He Yi doubted his self-control for the first time in his life.

"So, mighty young Celestial Master, where are you taking me now?"

He Yi's heart pounded fiercely. Through the demon-binding rope, he glimpsed Yu Tian's memories and finally learned the truth of the past.

His heart a tangle of regret and relief, he gently lifted Yu Tian into his arms.

"I'll take you home."

Yu Tian had thought he was taking her to the Wushang Temple to be locked in a demon cage.

It wasn't until she saw a rented apartment even more cold and austere than her office that she realized otherwise.

How strange. Why had this boy's desire suddenly changed the moment they stepped inside?

It smelled so good, so sweet, so tempting...
