A Guide to Winning Over the Fox Spirit Daoist

A disgraced demon hunter x a renowned thousand-year-old fox demon

Yuanwei thinks this world is so unfair.

She risked her life trying to become a proper demon hunter, only to be hunted by the entire cultivation world as soon as she set foot in the mountain sect.

Some people really are blessed. They can be thousand-year-old fox demons by nature and still end up revered and feared as Daoist masters.

Everyone knows that Shang Shixu, a Daoist master of Penglai Island, is upright and refined, compassionate and benevolent, and born with the makings of an immortal.

Yuanwei doesn't think so. How could a demon cultivate the Dao?

She has an ulterior motive, so she forces the question deep into her heart and never lets it show.

Once he helps her rescue her master, she'll take him back to Penglai, and their relationship will be over.

But she accidentally tramples and kills his companion flower. To raise a new one, she has no choice but to pore over ancient texts and help Shang Shixu grow another companion flower.

Then, in the middle of a great battle, he kills her master, and the two of them end up on opposing sides.

Three years later, she is a demon hunter revered by everyone in the cultivation world and a terrifying ghostly fiend to the demon realm. She has also earned a fearsome reputation in the cultivation world as someone neither ghosts nor gods, immortals nor demons can intimidate.

They meet again when the Guixu Illusion opens. She is invited to Bohai as a guest, while Shang Shixu, the master of Penglai Island, takes his place among the Five Directions.

Shang Shixu and Yuanwei exchange a brief glance across the hall, then quickly look away. His gaze is utterly cold, as though she were just an ordinary person.

That night, as Yuanwei passes a shadowy artificial hill on her way back to her room, a dark figure darts in front of her.

When she recognizes him, anger surges through her. She is about to thrust her sword at him when Shang Shixu suddenly reveals his fox-demon nature. Several snowy-white tails appear, driving her into a corner and winding tightly around her slender waist before creeping up to her neck...

He presses close to her, covers her eyes with one hand, and lightly touches her brow with his cold lips. His voice is bewitching and tender: "Yuanwei, you're being disobedient..."

PS: 1. Yuanwei is only the heroine's childhood nickname. She will have a formal name after becoming a demon hunter.

2. The male lead killing the heroine's master is a misunderstanding, a huge misunderstanding.

3. The heroine is a little weak at first, but this is a growth story.

4. By the end, the male and female leads will be equally matched in strength, which is why this is tagged as a power couple.

Theme: May everyone be able to strive for their ideals.
