There were many demon cultivators living in the Capital, but most were wandering demons who had left their homes and tribes behind, without the protection of their own kind. To better integrate into human society, they maintained lifestyles similar to humans—going to work each day, earning money, and saving up to buy homes.
In the country's Capital, when demons gathered together, those who owned apartments in good school districts would attract envious glances from lesser demons. Similarly, those who worked at Fortune 500 companies would hold their heads high when chatting with others.
When news spread that Lord Heavenly Dao would visit the Capital, the local demons had been working themselves to the bone, determined not to lose face to those traditional demons from the countryside who looked down on them.
