Mo Xiang Tong Xiu is the pseudonym of the author of the novel Grandmaster of Demonic Cultivation. Her three danmei (耽美, Dānměi) web novels were originally published online at the Chinese web novel site JJWXC, where they became extremely popular. Although she did not like writing as a child, Mo Xiang Tong Xiu loved reading and making up stories. Her origin goal was to be a mangaka. Her interest in danmei began by reading a fanfiction about the anime D. Gray-Man in middle school, where in the male main character fell in love with a male side character. Ultimately, as she loved reading the works of others, she decided she wanted to try writing as well. Mo Xiang Tong Xiu's pseudonym originates from the fact that while she wished to study literature in college, her mother insisted she study economics. Her mother told her that she could smell the fragrance of ink in one hand and the smell of money in the other. 墨香 (Mò Xiāng) means 'black fragrance' and 铜臭 (Tóng Xiù) is a phrase meaning 'the stink of money.'
