I'm Just an Ordinary Fox Demon

As the little princess of the Qingqiu Fox Clan, Zhuxi was born a half-goddess and could ascend to godhood with just a little cultivation.

Unfortunately, she was injured in the womb, leaving her spiritual roots impaired. Her friends and family one by one attained the Heavenly Dao, while she spent thirty thousand years working hard and still made no progress as a half-goddess.

People showed her respect as a princess to her face, but mocked her as useless behind her back.

During a tribulation of love, Zhuxi was ambushed and went through a melodramatic, heartbreaking romance with Lanye, son of the Lord of the Yuanshen Sea, who had also descended to the mortal realm to undergo a trial.

For Lanye, Zhuxi "willingly" stole medicine from the Immortal Mountain and searched the Weak Waters for treasure. In the end, Lanye stripped away her immortal bones and extracted her divine essence, all to save his true love, Jinyi Fox.

They ended up together, while Zhuxi fell from goddess to fox demon. A blind demon hunter locked her in the Demon-Suppressing Tower, where she endured forty-nine bolts of baleful lightning every day, burning her body until she was reduced to ashes.

A kind stranger who left no name rescued her from the Demon-Suppressing Tower. Zhuxi was utterly dejected, and the old-timers in the fox den were outraged.

"Some nobody from a ditch in the Yuanshen Sea dares bully our A Yun? Does he think there's no one left in Qingqiu?!" said the ruler of Qingqiu, Zhuxi's older brother, furious.

The ruler of both the demon and monster realms, and Zhuxi's friend, also stood up for her. "Don't be afraid, little Zhu. I'll smash that Lanye's head in and make him kneel and call you Dad!"

Even the child Zhuxi had casually saved in the mortal world thirty thousand years ago, now a godly warrior, traveled across the Four Seas and Eight Desolations to gather rare treasures just to cheer her up.

But one person, the crown prince of the Heavenly Clan and Zhuxi's sharp-tongued childhood friend Cheng Bing, scoffed, "It's a shame you didn't die in the Demon-Suppressing Tower. You were this close to doing the people a favor."

Yet the bloody burn on his arm stood out unmistakably. It was clearly the mark left by the baleful lightning unique to the Demon-Suppressing Tower.

- "I'm just an utterly ordinary fox demon. I wanted to laze around, but somehow became the favorite of all six realms."
