ok so do you guys remember when i said that quanyin were just bingqiu in an au… ok au where yin yu really did transmigrate and in the version of tgcf HE read, quan yizhen was one of the deuteragonists with a tragic luo binghe style backstory while yin yu was his evil cannon fodder shixiong who killed him, and then when quan yizhen became a calamity he came back and tortured his evil shixiong yin yu…

except transmigrator yin yu doesn’t kill quan yizhen when he’s supposed to while they’re still mortals. he’s also actually a good person compared to the original so it’s no surprise to anyone else when he ascends even though he’s freaking tf out bc the original never ascended. and then quan yizhen fucking ascends. and yin yu freaks out even harder because none of this was in the book and he’s derailed the plot so hard… and then the whole brocade immortal scene happens (maybe the system decided to try and get things back on track by killing yizhen) and then. well. yknow. like when you put it that way i think yin yu’s weirdo actions make a lot of sense

feng xin and xie lian are definitely those two smart best friends who become absolute idiots the moment they’re in each other’s company

[foxfeast]

both mu qing and hua cheng having hair shorter than is considered appropriate/respectful when they’re kids bc they can’t afford combs so they just cut off the matted hair

[foxfeast]

after jun wu is defeated and the surviving gods are all trying to figure out who should be the next heavenly emperor they do the whole “yeah xie lian should do it, he defeated white no face” but xie lian pulls an uno reverse and elects lang qianqiu. after all lang qianqiu is the only god present who actually has experience being a king and ruling over a nation

ok ok on that note. au where shang qinghua decides to go and raise luo binghe himself bc that’s his SON! that’s his baby boy! sure he wrote more than a million words abt this kid suffering but that was when he thought luo binghe was fictional. now that he’s living in this world there’s no way he’s actually going to let luo binghe actually suffer!!!! besides, if he raises luo binghe as his son, then binghe will definitely stick up for him and protect him when it’s time for mobei-jun to smash his skull in. it’s a win-win!!!!!!!

he walks up and down the river everyday for three months until he finally comes across newborn luo binghe floating along the freezing river in a little basket. he takes baby binghe back home to cqms with him and all his martial siblings and disciples are like “bro where the fuck did you get this baby” and shang qinghua panics and tells them all that he gave birth to binghe himself. they didn’t even know that this guy had a partner or could get pregnant but stranger things have happened so they’re all chill w it

he brings binghe back and forth between the demon realm and the human realm w him on his work trips. the first time mobei jun sees binghe he freaks out bc he thinks he’s binghe’s father based on the fact that he and shang qinghua held hands for five seconds one time

eventually binghe still gets accepted to qing jing when he’s older but shen qingqiu isn’t stupid enough to bully another peak lord’s kid. then when shen yuan transmigrates he hears luo binghe call shang qinghua “baba” and absolutely loses it

you can’t tell me that shang qinghua doesn’t absolutely adore luo binghe. he would 100% treat binghe like his spoiled little brother if he had the chance

[foxfeast]

shang qinghua who becomes uncannily good friends with everyone he meets. everyone thinks it’s super bizarre because this guy is always so anxious and overworked, not to mention secretive as fuck, and yet he’s super close to all the peak lords and shares inside jokes w them all. he hangs out with each and every single one of them all the time and as it turns out he has a shit ton in common with them and they all think he’s funny as fuck. and it’s not only the peak lords but anyone else he meets too!!!! he even gets along w people like liu qingge and luo binghe!!!! people are absolutely stumped by this guy and think he has ulterior motives because no one is this charismatic and easy to get along with without even trying. there’s no way he actually has this much in common with everyone he meets

in reality shang qinghua is an author who transmigrated into his own novel and is super fucking stoked to be able to get to know all his characters on a personal level. he loves interacting w everyone and of course they’re all going to have something in common w him when he created them all and they all carry a part of him within themselves. he’s having the absolute time of his life playing with his ocs

[foxfeast]

i hear you i hear you but the point is that shang qinghua doesn’t KNOW that he has this halo. he thinks he’s going to end up like the original goods murdered at the hands of his boss. what’s more, he believes himself to be canon fodder, susceptible to death at every turn, so of course he’s terrified and jumpy of everything. he doesn’t realize that he’s able to survive situations that would’ve definitely killed others because he has an op cheat mode! he’s scared of death without knowing that he’s actually untouchable!

obsessed with the idea of shang qinghua having an “author’s halo” but being completely unaware of it

like whenever shen qingqiu or anyone else asks him for something and he doesn’t know the actual answer he’ll just make up some bullshit on the spot and what do you know, that really turned out to be the right answer!!! he’s so lucky!!! but in reality the world is rewriting itself so it can never contradict the god who made it

and not only does the world bend to his whims, he’s also completely immune to death. he, luo binghe, shen qingqiu, and mobei-jun will be exploring some ruins filled with booby traps or something. lbh, sqq, and mbj will be fighting for their lives to get through the traps meanwhile shang qinghua just walks through while eating his melon seeds and the traps just narrowly miss hitting him like he’s a cartoon character, and then he turns around and sees his buddies all exhausted and wounded from the traps and he’s just like “huh??? what’s up w you guys haha you’re so clumsy”

sqq and lbh are furious that this dude holds the power of the universe in his hands and doesn’t realize it. mbj thinks it’s the sexiest thing ever

[foxfeast]

Your Emperor SQH post has unleashed an unprecedented wave of brainworms going insane in my head. If it were a meal I'd be biting into the plate like it was my first meal in weeks. Hands down incredible fr

YESSS YOU GET IT!!!!! im literally obsessed with shang qinghua being the most intelligent and most capable person in the world bc he created the entire thing and people just overlook him bc he’s so weird and anxious… but listen luo binghe was literally his power fantasy, shang qinghua would absolutely kill as the demonic emperor and he would LOVE it and no one could tell me otherwise. he’d 100% be the most competent ruler the demon realm has ever seen

[foxfeast]

After everything is finally over and he’s happily married to the love of his life, Luo Binghe decides that he really doesn’t want to be the emperor of the demonic realm anymore. It was never his dream, okay?! He was only doing it to show Shizun that he was strong and capable of taking care of him, but now he just really wants to settle down in a cottage with his Shizun and raise chickens and grow a garden! He wants to be a housewife!

Of course, this means that someone else has to become the new emperor, so Luo Binghe goes to Tianlang-jun first to try and give his father his title back.

“Nope,” says Tianlang-jun. He’s never had an interest in ruling the demonic realm, and now that Zhuzhi-lang isn’t here to handle all the serious stuff for him, he has even less of an interest in it. Besides, he’s just gotten married to his Qingyuan, and he’s perfectly content being a pampered and spoiled wife of a Peak Lord! He has all the time in the world to get railed and read bad porn novels! He’s not giving that up for a title he’s never wanted.

Luo Binghe is frustrated, but he can’t say that he doesn’t understand his father’s sentiments, so he goes to Sha Hualing next. On the surface she might not seem like the perfect candidate, but she’s basically been running the demonic realm for Luo Binghe this entire time anyway. Plus, Luo Binghe is certain that Sha Hualing wouldn’t pass up the chance to beat his ass for the title.

“No way,” says Sha Hualing. Sure, it was once her dream to become the empress of the demonic realm, and she often fantasized about beating the shit out of Luo Binghe. However, she’s recently discovered the delight that is Liu Mingyan and now she has no interest in doing something that would take her away from her precious Mingyan. The woman is freakier than she looks, okay?! Sha Hualing is having the time of her life having the world’s kinkiest sex! There are even knives involved!

Luo Binghe can’t say he gets this, but he moves on anyway. There’s only one other person he can ask to take over the mantle, so he goes to Mobei-jun.

“…” says Mobei-jun with a scowl, which is the equivalent of him stamping his foot and shouting ‘NO!’. He’s never been good at ruling—he speaks better with his fists than he does with his words. Besides, after seeing all the bullshit Luo Binghe has had to go through as the emperor, he has no desire to become the emperor anymore. He’s no good at delegating resources or administration at all, and to be honest, he’s really bad at math. That’s why Qinghua handles all his paperwork!

That’s when it clicks in Luo Binghe’s head that the perfect candidate for emperor of the demonic realm has been under his nose this entire time. He summons Tianlang-jun, Sha Hualing, Mobei-jun, and the candidate in question to discuss this.

“I think Shang-shishu should be the emperor,” says Luo Binghe without preamble.

Shang Qinghua nearly faints on the spot. He thinks this is a cruel joke meant to fuck with him—everyone knows hamsters are easily frightened to death, after all!

Yet to Shang Qinghua’s immense horror, he sees the four most powerful people in the world taking this suggestion very seriously.

“I have no objections,” says Tianlang-jun. Of course he wouldn’t! The guy is so placid you could suggest marrying a fish off to a dog and he’d just delightedly agree! All he lives for is chaos and satisfying his own whims—Shang Qinghua would know, he created the guy!

“I agree. Peak Lord Shang is fit for the job,” says Sha Hualing. Shang Qinghua, while flattered by her compliment, trusts her judgement even less than Tianlang-jun’s. He knows that all this saintess cares about is having increasingly alarming sex with her wife. Additionally, she’s always been eager to shirk off the ‘boring’ tasks to other people. How is this any different?!

“Mn,” says Mobei-jun, gazing at Shang Qinghua with a small smile and eyes brimming with so much pride and joy. This is the equivalent of him jumping up and down and going ‘YIPPEE!’. Shang Qinghua can’t believe that his husband is actually supporting this notion, especially since he thought that Mobei-jun would want to keep him working in his palace forever. He seriously can’t believe this turn of events.

Shang Qinghua insists that he can’t be the emperor of the demonic realm—he’s a human, and a Peak Lord, at that! However, the demons in the room are not listening to him. Sha Hualing and Luo Binghe have already moved on to discuss the intricacies and delights of rope bondage, while Mobei-jun and Tianlang-jun have started kicking each other. In a last ditch attempt, Shang Qinghua turns to Shen Qingqiu (who is never away from Luo Binghe, not anymore.)

“Bro, you gotta help me out! Tell them I can’t do it!” Shang Qinghua pleads, clasping his hands together.

Shen Qingqiu just waves his fan and raises an eyebrow at Shang Qinghua. This guy! He’s such a fraud!

“Why not?” Shen Qingqiu asks. “You created this world. You have better knowledge of the demon realm and the tribes, culture, and future problems it’ll face than anyone else. Besides, you’ve practically been running the demon realm behind the scenes this entire time. There’s no one in this world more qualified than you. Why shouldn’t you do it?”

Shang Qinghua is actually kind of touched that Shen Qingqiu—and everyone else present, really—think so highly of him. And, honestly, he loves the politics and culture of the demon realm. He loves the demons that live there. He wrote this world, okay?! He’s allowed to enjoy it! When he first started writing Proud Immortal Demon Way, he was most excited to delve into the demon realm! Plus, Shen Qingqiu has a point, as much as it pains him to admit it. He really has been running the demonic realm in lieu of the actual emperor for quite a while.

Thus, he very reluctantly agrees. Still, he’s quite anxious about being a human running the demonic realm, and he voices these concerns.

“Don’t worry,” says Luo Binghe with a resolute nod. “I’ll handle it.”

Tianlang-jun, Sha Hualing, and Mobei-jun give their respective signs of agreement.

Shang Qinghua doesn’t know why this make him break out into a cold sweat.

This is how Shang Qinghua ends up battling Luo Binghe for twelve hours straight for the title of emperor. He wins not by might or force—Luo Binghe is overwhelmingly powerful, and he’d never throw a fight on purpose. No, Shang Qinghua wins entirely by outsmarting Luo Binghe, who offers his sincere and heartfelt congratulations.

He’s crowned emperor in front of the entire demonic realm. He was incredibly nervous about the reception he’d receive from his new subjects, but they just kinda shrug and go “yeah, okay,” as if it makes perfect sense for a human to be the new demonic emperor. Little does Shang Qinghua know that they’re only okay with it because he’s the one doing it.

There are a few demons who aren’t cool with this, of course, but with four of the strongest demons in the world backing him, there’s really nothing they can do.

In the end, Shen Qingqiu and Luo Binghe move to the countryside to live out their cottagecore dreams. Tianlang-jun goes back to Yue Qingyuan to become a trophy wife. Sha Hualing and Liu Mingyan release a very questionable novel in celebration.

And Mobei-jun finally gets to see his husband treated with the respect and admiration he deserves, all while getting to live out his fantasies of being Shang Qinghua’s little concubine.

little lamb binghe 🐑

[foxfeast]

listen to me. listen. yue qingyuan is repressed as fuck, he’s been shoving his feelings aside for the sake of keeping others happy his ENTIRE LIFE. he doesn’t know how to express a single emotion other than neutrality for fear of upsetting others, and then one day the dude he’s grown up with, his ONLY FAMILY, just ups and FORGETS HIM and EVERYTHING they went through together! and it’s like, sure, they weren’t really all that close beforehand but at LEAST they had a shared history! at least yqy could try! at least he wasn’t totally alone! now he has to watch a different soul inhabit the body of the only family he’s ever had and he can’t even do anything about it, he has to watch this man be happy living a life that doesn’t involve him and he can’t even TRY to fight for a place in sqq’s life anymore because when he tries it’s just awkward, he can tell he’s making sqq uncomfortable, and he has no idea how to interact with this new sqq!!!! how is he supposed to cope with the grief of losing the only person he’s ever had when that person is RIGHT THERE, they just don’t remember him anymore and don’t want to try and get to know him again?!

eventually tlj is placed under yqy’s care. everyone’s like oh you already beat this shit outta this demon guy once so if he tries anything you can just beat the shit outta him again. yqy is prepared for tlj to be the most insufferable person on the planet but the dude just spends his days in yqy’s garden watering his flowers or reading regret of chunshan over and over. they hate each other SO much at first—yqy thinks tlj is immature and pampered, and tlj distrusts yqy bc of their history and yqy’s placidness. the first few months they’re together tlj does everything he can to break yqy’s facade and prove yqy is like all over cultivators; he kicks, he claws, he teases, he flirts. one day he even decides to chill in yqy’s gardens while naked to see what’ll happen. except every single time, yqy just smiles placidly at him and responds with “that’s nice.” he doesn’t entertain fights or flirts! he didn’t even LOOK at tlj’s tits in that garden! yqy’s inability to be affected by teasing or flirting reminds tlj of sxy, even though the two as as different as can be, and despite himself tlj ends up trusting yqy after a while and growing affectionate for him.

and then one day tlj manages it—he finally gets a reaction out of yqy, but it’s not the one he imagined. maybe he said some bullshit about sqq and lbh again, but whatever it is, yqy finally breaks down in front of him. he gets angry and yells at tlj for being so childish and to leave his family (sqq) alone, and its the HOTTEST thing tlj has ever seen. yqy apologizes after his outburst but tlj vows to get yqy to break and talk about his emotions more because seeing that man have a facial expression other than neutrality has quickly become tlj’s biggest kink. they start hanging out over tea and tlj starts to pry into yqy’s life and ends up sharing stuff about himself in return.

it takes a while, but it WORKS. yqy opens up to tlj and starts to become more expressive, giving genuine smiles or genuine expressions of anger. yqy ends up loving how open and shameless tlj is; tlj just says whatever is on his mind, he acts the way he wants and does what he likes. after being surrounded by people who hid their emotions for ulterior motives his entire life, yqy finds this super refreshing. not to mention that tlj actually LIKES hanging out with him and listening to him talk! he hasn’t been able to talk to anyone about anything for so long! after losing sqq so completely, it’s nice to be able to have someone he can confidently call a friend. he can, for the first time in a very long time, relax around another person, and it doesn’t escape yqy that this person is the last full-blooded heavenly demon alive.

similarly, tlj finds himself falling fast and hard for yqy. yqy is just so level headed, so mature and responsible that tlj never feels unprepared with this guy. he’s like a steady anchor in his life, and tlj has to admit that he loves how warm and indulgent yqy is. sure, sxy’s coldness was part of why he loved her and while she was aloof she was never unaffectionate; still, after he got sealed, he likes the reassurance of someone smiling at him and being kind to him, and yqy is so soft and fussy. and most bizarre of all he feels perfectly safe with yqy, the dude who helped seal him and probably the only dude in the world who could take him in a fight (as if that’s not sexy as fuck in its own right). but for tlj who was betrayed by human cultivators that’s huge! after tlj lost zzl and sxy, he never thought he’d form even a surface level friendship with another demon, and here he was, giving moon eyes to a human who read porn out loud to him as a bedtime story when he couldn’t sleep!

anyway. eventually tlj and yqy realize that even though they’ve both lost everyone they’ve ever loved they’re not alone cause there’s a dude right there who understands. they provide everything the other is missing in life, they balance each other out. yqy is levelheaded enough to keep tlj’s head out of the clouds and keep him safe while tlj wears his heart on his sleeve and shows yqy that it’s okay to relax and experience emotions ❤️

look yqy/tlj may have started off as a crack ship but im telling you that they have the exact personalities needed to help each other heal and move on from their trauma
