Fang Shiyi was the most accomplished Celestial Master around, with countless demons falling at her hands.
She had a gentle, beautiful, understanding wife named Jing Xi.
Jing Xi cooked for her, though she only knew how to make sashimi.
She often brought her gifts, though they were always pearls.
She took the initiative to plan camping trips and vacations, though they were usually by the sea.
When passion overtook them, her wife’s cheeks would flush pink. The soft, breathy whispers by her ear were so melodious that they could have come from a legendary siren, beguiling all who heard them.
Fang Shiyi was very content with her life.
Her only concern was that she didn’t know how to confess her true identity to her wife.
But lately, strange incidents caused by demons had been on the rise.
She was busy with work and sometimes even came home injured, much to Jing Xi’s displeasure.
It had been a whole month since they’d cuddled. QAQ

The good news was that Fang Shiyi had found a lead.
The mastermind behind the incidents was sinister, cunning, and ill-tempered. They always seemed to guess Fang Shiyi’s plans, provoking her again and again without ever showing remorse.
Fang Shiyi and this mastermind fought fiercely, each determined to kill the other.
After one operation, Fang Shiyi casually snatched the other person’s goods and decided to give them to Jing Xi, passing along someone else’s gift to cheer up her wife.
In the dim candlelight, Jing Xi toyed with the pearl in her hand, the corner of her mouth lifting in the faintest smile.
Her eyes were dark as the deep sea, but her voice was gentle. “What a... surprise.”
It turned out that the person she cherished at her side was the archenemy who had been trying to kill her all along.

One day, when Fang Shiyi came home, she found the house thick with demonic energy and talismans scattered all over the floor.
Afraid that an enemy demon had come after them, she rushed around in a panic, searching for Jing Xi.
She charged into the bathroom and immediately spotted her wife, whose long hair fell to her waist and whose gentle beauty was captivating.
Fang Shiyi had no time to think. “Jing Xi, listen to me. I’m actually a Celestial Master. There’s demonic energy in the house, so hurry and hide in the bedroom.”
“I’m going to capture this damned demon, ”
Before Fang Shiyi could finish, a splash of water hit her full in the face.
She dazedly wiped the water away, and only then, as the foam cleared, did she see the enormous, magnificent black tail in the bathtub.
Its owner looked utterly innocent. She tugged Fang Shiyi by the hem of her clothes, pulling her into the tub and splashing water everywhere.
Jing Xi pressed her soft red lips to the corner of Fang Shiyi’s mouth, her fingertip lingering suggestively against Fang Shiyi’s neck as she whispered, “Sorry, what were you saying?”
Fang Shiyi trembled, dazzled by her beauty. “Uh, I said I’d keep her and pamper her.”
