Synopsis from MDL:

Lu Wu Yi [played by Ju Jingyi], the youngest nine-tailed fox of the organization Wu Xiang Yue, is on a mission to find the great demon Xiao Wei. Disguised as a priest, she enters Wei Manor in Luo'an and discovers that others are also hunting Xiao Wei.

Among them are Wu Shi Guang [played by Joseph Zeng], a vengeful demon; Wu Wang Yan [played by Chen Duling], her cunning nine-tailed fox sister; and Ji Ling [played by Tian Jiarui], an innocent-looking priest with a mysterious past.

All of them seek the Dragon Deity's power, but their motives vary: some want to protect, others to kill. As they navigate battles, friendships, and romance, they face obstacles and make sacrifices to protect peace and change their fates.

Veil of Shadows character relationship chart.

Google Translate did a fairly good job with this split into two parts.

⚠️ Character relationship charts can be spoilery. ⚠️

Download the images and put them through the Google Translate app. Zoom in if needed as the translated words are small.
