After Jiang Chanxin died, she transmigrated, only to accidentally take over the body originally meant for the Heavenly Demon.
The Heavenly Demon of this world had long been sealed away. The surviving demons lived like rats in the gutter, desperately hoping for the Heavenly Demon's return to lead their kind to glory once more.
Jiang Chanxin was at a loss, so she had no choice but to take the path of overthrowing the old king and becoming the new one.

[Sleep-deprived warrior, world-weary junior sister x beacon of righteousness, but two-faced senior brother]
Jiang Chanxin has a pair of unusual eyes.
Everything has qi, and her eyes allow her to see it from birth.
Whether a person or a yao, a yao or a demon, she can understand them at a glance, as if Heaven itself favors the strange and wicked. As a result, she is constantly hounded by them.
Before joining a cultivation sect, Jiang Chanxin had never once enjoyed a good night's sleep. That changed after she entered the sect and learned of a place called Yuyuan.
They say the most wicked demon in the world is sealed beneath Yuyuan. Jiang Chanxin discovered that the demonic qi there could crush all the strange and wicked creatures around her, and that she could absorb it and use it herself.
Jiang Chanxin moved her home to the edge of Yuyuan overnight, and stayed there for several years. As far as she was concerned, the only drawback was the chill of the mountain wind.
Then she met the senior brother whose qi was so abundant he seemed to glow, dazzling as the sun.
That night, for the first time, she slept soundly in her room until morning.
[This senior brother works just as well as Yuyuan]

Zhaoyu Zhao went out and came back with a new junior sister. She was wonderful in every way, except that she couldn't let go of her thoughts of ending her life.
The first time Zhaoyu Zhao saw her, she was at the edge of Yuyuan. The young woman was stunningly beautiful, like a celestial being, utterly out of place beside Yuyuan, yet she jumped in without even blinking.
He was so frightened that he immediately pulled her out. After that, he kept her by his side, never quite at ease. He had to worry about her mental health and protect her from the wolves around them who coveted her.
He was so good at keeping them at bay that rumors gradually spread through the cultivation sect that Zhaoyu Zhao was guarding the henhouse while being the fox.
And later, Zhaoyu Zhao really did become a thief.

Reader's Guide:
1. The heroine has trouble sleeping, but she isn't genuinely world-weary.
2. This will most likely be a long story. I want to write more of the cultivation journey in earnest.
3. Important things must be said three times: The author is terrible at writing blurbs, the author is terrible at writing blurbs, the author is terrible at writing blurbs. Please refer to the main story for anything unclear. No labels, please.
Theme: Can't sleep, so she wants to kill someone (not really).
