Lu Chuan, a hidden demon-sealing guard, is tasked with protecting Lin Wan—a wealthy heiress with a dangerous demon vein. For three years, he’s silently fended off countless assassinations by demon cultivators for her, yet Lin Wan only has eyes for Gu Yan, the campus heartthrob, and ignores his sacrifices. Everything shifts when he meets Su Xiao, a cheerful talismancer who knows his secret and helps him uncover the demon cultivators’ plot. When Lu Chuan finally decides to let go of Lin Wan and seal the demon lair with Su Xiao, Lin Wan bursts into tears—Gu Yan is a spy for the demon cultivators, and she can only rely on Lu Chuan now. But then, Su Xiao’s talismans emit demon qi. It turns out the fates of the two girls are tied to the demon cultivators’ scheme. Lu Chuan’s duty is to protect the world, but faced with a crying Lin Wan and a smiling Su Xiao, his choice is no longer just about “protecting someone”—it’s about who he’s willing to fight for with all his heart.
