"Zhou Yichen?... The second heir of the Zhou clan?" "Ah, the scary second young master of the Demon hunting Bureau?" "Why does he always put a mask on his face? And to point it out, it's also a ridiculous mask" "Ironically, we serve a family of demon hunters- he's more like the demon instead of the hunter" "Is he wearing a mask because his face is too beautiful?

For nearly a century, Li Lun had lived in the courtyard, watching the Zhuo family come and go. He had seen joy and sorrow, but this-this was different. Zhuo Yichen's grief was so raw, so visceral, that it pierced through even Li Lun's hardened heart. "He's just a young boy," Li Lun thought, his voice trembling within his own mind. "Why must humans endure so much pain?"

If someone would tell Li Lun that one day, he will wake up from his slumber and be Zhuo Yichen lookalike baby protector, he definitely strangle them to death with his veins.

In the realm of celestial mountains and ancient oaths, Zhou YiChen begins a journey that defies the natural order of life and death.

"Ying Long..." Bingyi whispered, his voice cracking. "I can't do it." Before Bingyi could act, Ying Long reached out and pulled the blade into his own chest. The sword pierced his heart with a burst of golden light. His body began to dissolve, shimmering like stardust in the mist. "Ying Long!" Bingyi cried, dropping the sword and rushing to catch the collapsing figure. He cradled Ying Long's fading form in his arms, his tears falling onto the glowing remnants of the dragon spirit.

In the mystical and perilous realm of Dahuang, demon hunter Zhuo Yichen never imagined he'd fall for Li Lun, the enigmatic Tree Demon whose shadows hold both power and secrets. Initially bound by a cruel illusion, their love blossoms amidst battles, betrayal, and half-whispered truths. "It's not the life I imagined," Zhuo admits, clutching the red jade bracelet that binds their hearts. Li Lun's phoenix eyes gleam with a hint of mystery. "But it's the one I'd choose, even if it shatters us." As enemies close in and shadows whisper secrets they dare not speak, their bond becomes their greatest weapon-and their deepest vulnerability.

NEW EDITED VERSION ON MY PROFILE. YOU MIGHT WANT TO READ THAT INSTEAD OF THIS. Wu Ze Tian was the only empress in the history of China. This is the story of her rise to power, and the other concubines that fell as a result. (This is kind of based on a real person, but not historically accurate.) Gorgeous cover done by @DarielClaire, tysm:)
