The Bodhi Tree Emits Fragrance

The original title of this book was "Mystical Charm"; it was renamed "Fragrance of Bodhi" upon publication

Yandu is a mysterious city that has existed in the realm of the sacred for three thousand years, and no one has ever entered there. The Lord of Yandu, apart from conducting inspections, has no interactions with others. This socially awkward demon king finds joy in leading his minions, taking root and flourishing in that solitary city. Existing beyond the mundane world, it is far removed from all living beings

He has a peculiar temperament and unusual hobbies, and he also neglects personal hygiene—he can wear the same robe for thousands of years. Moreover, he has never shown his face, always wrapped up tightly even when fighting. The other demons discuss him behind his back, unanimously agreeing that he is very old and ugly, and there is not a single female demon in this region willing to marry him

Until one day, the ancient demon, who had lived for millennia, experienced the stirrings of love for the first time. Using every trick in the book, he captured the heart of the divine healer of the realm. Upon shedding his long-worn black robe, the other demons were astonished to discover that this old demon, who was only skilled in playing with mud, not only possessed unparalleled beauty but was also a devoted husband.
