It seems illogical that Lü Bu single-handedly broke through an army of ten thousand. Zhao Zilong is truly possessed by the dragon spirit; he can cleave mountains with a single sword strike. Is this really a human? Dian Wei single-handedly protected Cao Cao as they fought their way out of the enemy camp, casually slaughtering thousands of enemy infantry and cavalry.

Two things fill the mind with ever new and increasing admiration and awe, the more often and the more steadily we reflect upon them: the starry heavens above and the moral law within us. — Immanuel Kant When Xu Le looked away from those words and truly saw the countless stars behind the dust for the first time, he wasn't awestruck. Instead, he was furious: "The stars outside the regional sky are so dazzling, who can stand it? Being blinded by these lights every day, I'm afraid I'll turn into one of those stray cats in the mine tunnels that's been driven mad by the headlights!" So Xu Le gave up his dream of becoming a noble female warship commander's assistant and began to fall, fall, fall under the influence of gravity, becoming a poor boy from out of town who worked as a doorman, a pitiful man who sold his body, a male nanny who did tedious work... In the turbulent era, he showed his white teeth, squinted and smiled foolishly, covered in inexplicable radiance, and stepped by step towards a distant place that no one knew.

Cheng Tianle, true to his name, is over twenty years old and has accomplished nothing, yet he is always cheerful and carefree. He wandered to Suzhou, living a life of leisure and eating and lodging, but by chance and in a daze, he obtained the inheritance of demon cultivation techniques. When he came to his senses, it was as if he had opened a door to wonder in the world. It turns out that all around us, in our daily lives, on the streets and alleys, there are all sorts of demons. They are no different from ordinary people, and ordinary people cannot tell them apart. For example, your company boss may be some kind of demon in disguise; and the trendy urban woman you meet on the street may be the legendary fox spirit. Having experienced the dangers of the world, he finally understood that the methods of demon cultivation differed from those of humans and could not be practiced arbitrarily. Cheng Tianle also began to ponder why these demons mingled in the human world and lived among us. In fact, from ancient times to the present, there have always been demons and spirits in the human world, and their actions are a result of human behavior—as many kinds of people exist in the world, so too will there be different kinds of beings.
