Characters

Qin Cai Sheng: The protagonist of the series, it is a divine fox with the capability to switch between male and female forms. Primarily in the female form, it is commented that her female form exhibits the characteristics of a fox demon, namely, seduction. Her male form has been commented to be more celestial-like, and she should be in this form in the presence of any other celestials. She seeks to have bonds/relationships like humans, and is willing to give up being a celestial/immortal to spend limited life with a loved one. She originally loved Hui Niang, but at the end of the series, she falls in love with a human, Wei zi Qiu, who then dies, and is reborn.

Han Yun Shi: A taoist priest in training, but lacking in both power and talent. He is the reincarnated form of the boy who saved Cai Sheng from the dog attack. Loves the female Cai Sheng, but he later marries Ping-er, and has a family with her.

Su Ping'er: A well-bred lady. She is the reincarnated form of the girl who saved Cai Sheng from the dog attack. Ping-er was, at one stage, a Demon but Han manages to bring her back. Loves the male Cai Sheng, but she eventually marries and has a family with Han.

Wei zi Qiu: A celestial in training charged with convincing Cai Sheng to return to the celestial world. If he fails to do so and Cai Sheng becomes a demon, he is to slay her. He later becomes a human again, and dies in Cai-Shengs arms. He's then reborn as Ping-er and Han's grandchild, and meets Cai-Sheng when she's hiking one day.

Bo Leng: A ruthless priest that kills fox demon without discretion, even if they have become human. He finds pleasure in collecting the tails of the fox-spirits he slays. He is very interested in slaying Cai Sheng and obtaining the former's tail. He sold the Fox Clan in the mountain out, and led the villagers to it, where they set the place alight and killed all the foxes bar one: Yuu-Niang.

Hui Niang: A fox spirit who gave it all up for her human husband. Cai Sheng loved her but she kept turning her male form down. She died when she was framed for killing a bunch of humans by Gui-Miao, and her two children died with her.

Gui Miao: A cat spirit that was created by the Demon Fox, who implanted her soul into her human owner's body. She lived as a Human for years, until she was found out, and then ran away with her human family. She eventually had to leave 'her' parents, but turned back to find that they killed themselves to keep her safe. At the end of the Manga, it's revealed that Gui Miao was accepted into training to become a Fairy, and is still forlorn that she can't become a Human.
