Main couple: A justice-obsessed villainous witch / an icy top scholar with a desk-job personality (bickering enemies, competing jealousy kings)
Side couples: An all-around saint with a head full of romance / a limping, spendthrift cult leader (a long road to winning her back)
+ A martial-arts-obsessed, tough-as-nails girl / a charming prince from the Western Regions (a husband-spoiling fanatic)
+ A sweet, devoted maid / a scheming physician lady (a super-sweet, heart-wrenching yuri romance)
Xiaoyu was the fifth concubine of the Central Plains Demonic Cult's leader. After the Western Regions Demonic Cult wiped out the Central Plains Demonic Cult, she left the sect and enjoyed a happy, wealthy life in seclusion.
Then, two years later, she came across her ex-husband, former Demonic Cult leader Jiang Aotian, whose martial arts were completely crippled and whose leg was lame.
At the same time, her past deeds came to light: stealing rare treasures from the vault, corrupting the cult leader's harem, using sorcery to wreak havoc, cooking the books to draw unearned salaries, and embezzling the cult's assets, among other things.
When the down-on-his-luck cult leader asked her how she could treat him worse than a dog, Xiaoyu slapped him to the ground and said
"Hilarious. You idiot, you only just figured it out? Fine, I'll take you on as a servant. Go feed the donkeys in the back yard. Don't worry, as long as I get to eat, you won't go without a gust of cold wind from the northwest to drink. Hahaha..."
P.S. The heroine's love interest isn't her ex-husband, the cult leader. Xiaoyu, the cult leader, and the saintess grew up together. Xiaoyu and the cult leader are like siblings (if that). The cult leader has to be properly trained before Xiaoyu dares hand him over to the hopelessly lovestruck saintess.
The cult leader's relationship with his wives is very complicated. Think of him as a eunuch visiting a brothel...
An ensemble story with multiple subplots. The romance comes in the middle and later parts, and the male lead appears late.
Feeling sorry for men will make you unlucky for life. The heroine never feels sorry for men, so she's incredibly lucky.
P.S. "A hundred carvings and none of them turn out right" describes the heroine perfectly. But even if she does turn out well, that doesn't necessarily mean she'll be any good. She'd be perfectly happy spending her whole life as a rough stone. Stones have their own kind of joy.
Premise: Evil cannot overcome righteousness. Adorable Xiaoyu rewards good and punishes evil.

I noticed, teacher, that you really know how to use some strange-looking but inexplicably appropriate metaphors.
The writing is very good, the writing style is smooth, the wording is good, and the characters are good, but the subject matter is a bit cold.
Druid is awesome! Jiang actually has some sense of empathy, which is okay, but this cannot offset the crime he committed. He deserves to be
I feel like this Lu Bo is really a powerful person.
