imagine an au where shen yuan transmigrates into a blank slate npc with very little system involvement, traveling around for a while until he's found by yue qingyuan and taken back to the sect because apparently shen qingqiu went missing around his transmigration period and shen yuan looks exactly like him, so it must be him, but then a few weeks later when he's just settled in on the peak and accepted his fate the real shen qingqiu shows up who was just on vacation and everyone forgot.

now there are two shen qingqiu's, one of whom is the real one and the other an amnesiac they gaslighted into believing he is shen qingqiu.

anyway—shen qingqiu has a new didi now!

Look I just reblogged this but I gotta come back to it.

YQY did not drag him up the mountain. If anyone is tactlessly kidnapping a supposed shidi while being totally bullheadedly wrong it’s going to be Liu Qingge.

Like an Uber driver picking up the wrong person and stubbornly driving until the destination.

Liu Qingge carried that man up like a sack of potatoes and Yue Qingyuan went crazy for months knowing for absolute certain that was NOT Shen Jiu but goddamn if all the possession tests didn’t come back negative.

[fairsweetlonging]

okay you're RIGHT tho😭 Yue Qingyuan would feel it in his xiao-Jiu obsessed bones that something isn't right, but Liu Qingge would just sling him over his shoulder and carry him right back. looks like Shen, glares like Shen, says his name is Shen = must be Shen Qingqiu

and, well, Shen Yuan is a laid back guy, he's been wondering when the plot will happen to him, he just didn't expect it to come in the form of a beautiful man grabbing him in the streets and hauling him over his shoulder.

for a few worrying seconds Shen Yuan fears he might have ended up in one of his sister's plot lines, but then they arrive at a cultivation sect and they tell him he's a teacher (which? yeah, he can live with that!), and that he's Shen Qingqiu (he can NOT live with that), but he has amnesia.

[fairsweetlonging]

you think shen yuan ever pats down his robes and has a whole heart attack cus he can't find his phone in his pockets and he starts looking around in a panic and making everyone around him also panic because he lost something!!! before then suddenly realizing—oh, right.

[fanfiction-artist-prototype]

do you think he ever says 'oh its something from my home town' and Shang Qinghua agrees but obviously YQY is like 'tf???' and then it comes out that SQH has been a demon's spy for like legitimately the entire time he's been at CQM and YQY very much has a 'oh fuck that's a demon realm/ demonic cultivation' thing.

And because the system hates the transmigrators and loves them in equal measure its true? And everytime SQQ says something that's 'from the hometown' but is also demonic cultivator slang it breaks YQY's heart because what do you mean Xiao-Jiu forgot their past but remember the fucking *secret code*- but wait, no, he realises, that's such a xiao-jiu thing. Of course his pissy cat of a shidi who'd rather drag himself off to a forest and die alone (before and after his deviation the only difference is he's more polite to mu-shidi now) and who remembers nothing but the hardwon knowledge that he struggled tooth and nail to learn to read to find out would remember a secret code but not *why* he knows it.

But then you'd think, how does nobody else know this? How has no one else caught on? To which I propose, everyone with a better opinion of sqq assumes that 'oh, he's the strategy head of COURSE he knows the secret codes of possible allies/enemies'.

Adds to the angst because he doesn't want people to know he's in pain, he seems to forget small things frequently and he speaks in codes and platonic wife plot or something close means that it gets out to the peak lords that he was a demonic cultivator at one point with Wu Yanzi but everyone assumes he was a cauldron (which ngl has always been my interpretation of my Wu Yanzi kept him around) and its like 'oh'. 'oh he doesn't want people to help him because even if he doesn't remember the actual circumstances the fear of being used for his qi is ingrained.' ALSO EXPLAINS WHY HES SO CHILL ABOUT WITHOUT A CURE.

'SHIXIONG WHAT DO YOU MEAN THAT YOU'RE USED TO YOUR QI NOT BEING YOUR OWN TO USE, AND BEING USED TO PAIN ALL THE TIME? WHAT DO YOU MEAN YOUR CULTIVATION HAS BEEN FUCKED FOR SO LONG AND NOBODY HELPED WITH THIS. SHIXIONG-'

[fairsweetlonging]

omg wait you are ONTO something!!

"it's from my hometown" being interpreted by others as either secret code or brainwashing i love that. it would fill that plot hole to yqy so perfectly, who grew up with shen qingqiu and knows his "hometown" (which they never had. sob), and those phrases have definitely never been a thing—but there is a gap, isn't there? a good four years unaccounted for when xiao jiu was being manipulated by and eventually joined a demonic cultivator.

and when shang qinghua is revealed to have been working with demons all along? it makes sense. all the strange words and phrases that they use, always knowing exactly what the other means, never able to explain it to anyone, acting strange when people ask. and yqy clings onto that bit of hope that maybe shen qingqiu was just pretending, maybe he knew the secret code because he was spying on them, maybe he knew about shang qinghua and was trying to avoid a bigger problem.

the peak lords finding out about his past with wu yanzi?? YES. he was around 14/15 at that time, a teen, a child, an orphan, what use would a demonic cultivator have for him? what else than the worst? they're not stupid, they know what happens to children on the street, children that aren't protected. and yue qingyuan knows that shen jiu drew eyes twice because of his looks, even as a child (the fact qiu jianluo kept him around because of it... so gross). combined with sqq's protectiveness of his personal space, wearing many layers at all times, his avoidance of people, how he hides behind his fan, shying away from touch, his broken cultivation??

mu qingfang is one of the most talented healers of the sect, able to make a diagnosis at first glance; he can tell shen qingqiu's meridians were damaged long before he ever joined the sect, somewhere in his childhood. the edges are frayed, scarred over again and again and again, layers deep. it's trauma, it's incorrect cultivation techniques, it's a mess of injuries mu qingfang doesn't even know how to begin to untangle. and it must hurt. like a constant qi deviation, never ending.

but shen qingqiu just shrugs and avoids the topic and waves away the treatments, saying it's "not worth the fuss". mu qingfang about falls over, it's already a miracle their shixiong is here, let alone up and about and fighting all while he's poisoned with without-a-cure. and he's so casual about it, mumbling something about being used to it by now, and shixiong?? what do you mean by that??? hello????

it breaks yue qingyuan's heart. he probably kept himself awake at night imagining what shen jiu must have gone through, and now he finds out that his worst thoughts are reality. shen jiu got abused, starved, beaten, and when he finally got out of that house, away from the qiu's, he ran into someone who had no qualms about picking the thread right back up. and wu yanzi used him, took away the last bit of innocence left in him (if the qiu's hadn't done so already), and what would've happened if wu yanzi hadn't decided to go to the alliance conference?

yue qingyuan wishes the qiu's and wu yanzi weren't dead so he could kill them again.

it's a balm, at least, that his shidi doesn't seem to remember most of it, that he smiles again and when he rolls his eyes there isn't any vitriol behind it. and at least his relationship with liu qingge is improving, who is allowed into his home, allowed to touch him, to hold the pieces together where yue qingyuan cannot.

I’m actually kind of amazed how many people do not understand this concept

[ineffectualdemon]

Why do you think Yue Qingyuan doesn't go wild after Shen Qingqiu self detonates?

Why isn't he going to get back Shen Qingqiu's corpse?

Is it because he respects Shen Qingqiu's choice to sacrifice himself for his disciple?

Is it because he doesn't want to trigger an actual war?

Or is it because his Xiao Jiu has been dead for a long time already and he knows it?

I'm so curious because it's so at odds with Yue Qingyuan who walked into an obvious trap at the hope of getting Shen Jiu back

The Yue Qingyuan who pushed himself to the point of being stuck with a sword that drains his life force when he uses it

The Yue Qingyuan who clawed at walls of a cave to escape and ran away to save Shen Jiu when he could

The Yue Qingyuan who pulled away from a scene where Shen Jiu had murdered people to without a care of the crime

Why was Yue Qingyuan staying back at Cang Qiong while Liu Qingge fought for Shen Qingqiu's corpse?

[thelonelyweavergirl]

That's like...(⁠ﾉ⁠*⁠0⁠*⁠)⁠ﾉ very interesting.

It could be that YQY's guilt extended to the point that he believed he no longer deserves to be the one to have the right to do the funeral rights for SQQ or something else like that?

Like, in PIDW, SQQ had no one but YQY so YQY kind of had this thing that in a state of captivity under Luo Bingge, his Xiao Jiu needed him again and perhaps so he had a chance at redemption if he successfully rescued him this time unlike last time from the Qi household. In that novel, Xiao Jiu has no one, nada, nothing, except his Qi-ge, yk? Also in PIDW, if he could save SQQ(which was unlikely and I'm sure he knew) he could possibly reignite what SQQ and he had as Xiao Jiu and Qi-ge before he broke his promise. Like he wanted that between his sect and Xiao Jiu, when it counts, he would choose Xiao Jiu. I think that was what motivated YQY then. His masochistic side must have also pushed him in PIDW because he knows that he might die trying to save his Xiao Jiu at worst and what better death than that for YQY? That's PIDW YQY ig.

Now for the YQY from SVSSS, he has known that in an unsaid manner, for years since an illness hit him once, Xiao Jiu has seemed to have been over whatever feelings he had with respect to YQY. He knows that it has been sometime that leave alone love or something complicated, he has been undeserving of even Xiao Jiu's hate. He has faced an attitude of polite indifference and a stranger's acquaintenceship. In the years that follow, Xiao Jiu has made his own relationships with people where people care about him.

Let's look at the facts:

1. He loves and cares about his new relationships so much that he would self-detonate for others and kill himself in the process.

2. His disciple cares about him so much that he is still willing to steal his corpse, sustain that body and bring him back to life. Like we know that LQG goes to try to retrieve SQQ's body because he thinks what could a demon be doing to defile SQQ's body? Yet must not LBH have stated that he's just trying to bring his Shizun back to life in public or during one of their fights in hope that he'll be left alone to spend more time to try bringing Shizun back to life? From YQY's pov, that kid is doing more than he could and being a heavenly demon, he could achieve what he has set out doing which YQY may never be able to do even if he did decide to go that path. Maybe he even wishes that LBH is successful in bringing his shidi back to life.

3. If he were to go fight LBH, there's the sect he has to look after. His guilting syndrome must hold him responsible for the sect here. In PIDW, both the sect and A-Jiu rely on him solely. He chose Xiao Jiu over his sect then. Now, his sect relies only on him as sect leader while Xiao Jiu has LQG to go and fight for his corpse and many other people to mourn him. YQG could go fight but why interfere when somebody who A-Jiu would appreciate fighting for him, is already doing that? YQY thinks, his feelings don't matter, only Xiao-Jiu's does. That's why he's been quiet all this while in guilt before and he does the same here. A-Jiu has his own loved ones to do right by him now. Even in death SQQ doesn't need YQY, that far is how YQQ has gone off from his A-Jiu. YQY didn't deserve A-Jiu in life because he failed him and after his Xiao Jiu's death also it is evident to him that he still doesn't have the right to ask for what is not his.

That's all I could think of atm ig. Could be something else? Idk.

Initially I thought for a while that maybe YQY thought SQQ comitted suicide out of desperation so he didn't do what he didn't do. Then I realised that still doesn't explain why he didn't go after SQQ corpse. That's still Xiao Jiu's body and all that. Then I went down the spiral that's the explanation above. Still, curious. It's a very curious thing to wonder about.

It’s the way that Liu Qingge, the War God of Bai Zhan Peak, had never lost a fight, had never engaged in a battle he knew he couldn’t win.

It’s the way that Cheng Luan had never known the bitterness of failure, had only ever tasted the sweetness of victory.

It’s the way that this all came crashing down when Shen Qingqui passed.

It’s the way that Liu Qingge fought Luo Binghe everyday for five years, losing to him time and time again, reputation be damned.

It’s the way that he did this out of loyalty to one man, with nothing on his mind but to get his Shixiong home.
