Fanfic Search Request - Heaven Official's Blessing
A question if anyone happens to be able to answer (or has the incredible amount of time and self restraint to go looking). What might be quite a while ago (2+ years?) when I was reading pretty much all Hualian fics available at the time, there were 2 of them that I would really like to read again (and/or read similar fics) if anyone happens to recognize them by the following descriptions:
>> A fic where when Xie Lian ascends for the 3rd time he regains the ability to hear prayers and it turns out he has a massive backlog of them. I don't remember if it's optional to start at the beginning or not, but I'm pretty sure he does and he sits there and listens to every single one of HC's daily (and sometimes multiple a day) prayers that have piled up over the last few centuries - Found! - https://archiveofourown.org/works/40560810 >> What might be an E rated fic but I don't seem to distinctly recall that? where Xie Lian determined at some point during his second banishment that his cultivation method was NOT going to work out so well with his current situation so he switched to what ends up being essentially the exact opposite where part of his cultivation is pursuing desire. Somehow in this he ends up in Ghost City though I don't remember if that involves the whole desire thing or if he's there doing cultivator things (or is there because of bad luck) Also if anyone has been wondering where I've been, the beginning of year is insanely busy for me and I've also been on one of those phases where instead of writing I go read massive swaths of previously read and favored fics, and massive swaths of MXTX fics of favored pairings. In return for suggestions either of the above or of the vibes of above (as well as any that involve Shen Yuan resets or fire master and/or godly Hua Cheng) I offer my current most favorite of the reread list:
An Archive of Our Own, a project of the Organization for Transformative Works
One of my all time favorite collections of what ifs featuring any number of Hualin shenanigans. I originally found this series when I was searching for ferret!Xie Lian fics and have loved every single fic in this series
An Archive of Our Own, a project of the Organization for Transformative Works
Every now and then this fic crops up to haunt my thoughts (in a good way), specifically one of the opening scenes where Shen Yuan promptly uses all of the knowledge he gained from the initial go around from waking as SQQ to dying during SV's particular brand of saving the world to promptly behave far more in character towards YQY (aka: telling him to fuck off)
