The Cauldron I Picked Up Is a Great Demon Lord

[Passionate Heroine x Delighted Villain Dragon Hero]

*

Ming Gehua joined a cultivation sect at the age of seven. When she was seventeen, her master said there was nothing left to teach her and sent her down the mountain to gain experience. On the very first day, as she eagerly prepared to slay demons and uphold justice, she fell victim to a charm demon's love poison.

Under the poison's influence, she spent a night with a young man who called himself a cauldron furnace and went by the name Man Yansheng.

Man Yansheng was so beautiful he could have been mistaken for a woman, with red lips and pearly teeth. When he looked up at someone, his eyes shimmered with a pitiful, captivating charm.

After tying her skirt, Ming Gehua shook her head in sorrow. What a fallen world! How could such a handsome man have to become a cauldron furnace just to survive?

She felt so guilty that, while the man beside her was still asleep, she secretly slipped a stack of banknotes into the open collar of his clothes.

The next moment, she met his wide, astonished eyes, bright as peach blossoms.

Their eyes locked. She watched as his handsome, peach-blossom face shifted through a series of expressions: confusion, murderous intent, thoughtful contemplation, and then sheer enjoyment.

At last, he smiled gently, like a breeze on a spring day. "You want to 'look after' me, big sister? Sure."

Ming Gehua was absolutely not the sort of scumbag who ran off after lifting her skirt, so she resolved to take responsibility and bring this deadweight along as she fought demons and went on adventures.

With her protecting him, the cauldron furnace was considerate and gentle toward her, though he was often annoyingly chatty.

"Oh my, you sword cultivators are so brutal when you kill. It makes me scared. ^-^"

"There's blood! I faint at the sight of blood. I feel awful... Can I lean on your shoulder, big sister? ^-^"

"You must be tired from protecting me, big sister. How about I give you a massage tonight? ...I can even offer special services, if you'd like. ^-^"

Ming Gehua: (`□′) Where did this pretty deadweight come from?!

*

One day, after fighting for three days and nights with bloodshot eyes, Ming Gehua charged into the Demon King's palace with her sword in hand, ready to kill the great demon said to make little children cry at night and strike terror into the hearts of cultivators.

But there on the throne sat the once-timid, helpless cauldron furnace, his long hair half tied up and his clothes in disarray. Propping his head on one hand, he lounged bonelessly and smiled at her.

[Reader's Guide]

* One-on-one romance, happy ending.

* The male lead was never a cauldron furnace. The female lead misunderstood. He is not younger than her; calling her "big sister" is just his weird kink.

* Boy-girl romance. Not a female-led story, and the heroine is not overpowered. Some ensemble elements, with young men and women on passionate adventures.

* This is not the final blurb and may change before the novel officially begins.

Theme: Stand up for the weak and uphold justice
