The Great Liang Record of Demon Investigations

When humans kill, the Six Gates handle it. But when demons kill, nobody does anything? Shen Muqiong, the strongest monster in the Six Realms, holds a ruler in one hand and pins a murderer underfoot with the other. “What did you say?” To protect Qingzhou’s barrier and keep the mortal world peaceful, she has sent at least ten thousand demons into the Demon-Locking Pagoda. That is, until someone even more ruthless showed up. Li Ze, Qingzhou’s assistant prefect, takes a mountain god hostage, beats up vicious demons, and forces the world’s greatest demon doctor into his service through sheer violence. “Hmm? Got a problem?” “You need to learn to communicate. Violence isn’t the answer,” the mountain god says, shaking his head. “...Well, aren’t you hardworking? Unlike me, I can’t live without Shen Muqiong. When I see these little demons mouthing off in front of her, I have absolutely no desire to talk things out.” The mountain god falls silent... Qingzhou’s Spell-Prohibition Bureau had always been so peaceful that not even a ripple disturbed its waters. Then a mortal arrived and sent ripples spreading everywhere. He makes no secret of his intentions toward Shen Muqiong, constantly scheming to cross the line and take liberties with her. But no one knows what he has been through, what burdens he carries, or how he felt standing before the crumbling, vanishing Six Realms as he returned to the past. He does not care what happens to the world, nor does he care about life or death. He has reversed time by ten years for one person alone!
