Disciple Shen Yuan from my Shizun Luo Binghe AU doodle <3

[promiseslikewater]

SHIZUN LBH AND DISCIPLE SY??? PLEASE TELL US MORE I'M FERAL

I, too, am feral over these two nonnie, so I shall continue cause you asked so nicely <3

So, the PIDW of this universe follows the immortal lord Luo Binghe, Peak Lord of Qing Jing Peak, Demon Emperor on the side (shhhhh, that part's a secret).

Binghe is (seemingly) righteous and noble, but in truth he's always 1 step away from destroying Cang Qiong Mountain. His thread of hope for humanity is about to snap, which is not at all helped by Xin Mo, who has almost taken his mind over completely.

Enter Shen Yuan, transmigrator extraordinaire, disciple of Qing Jing Peak. The person that's supposed to expose Luo Binghe's demonic heritage to the world and kickstart the conquering of the Human Realm by the Demon Emperor, leading to Shen Yuan's eventually becoming a human stick.

Well, he doesn't want to die like that! Who would! So thigh hugging it is!

Thankfully the System in this world isn't as strict as in canon, so he does have one way of saving himself: if Shen Jiu had become Head Disciple, he would not have wanted to expose Luo Binghe.

He tries his darned best to get close to Luo Binghe, although clumsily. He always ends up walking into things when he's around 'cause he was gawking at him. Which, he reasons, is a perfectly normal thing for a disciple to do! To admire his Shizun! Especially since his Shizun was THE protagonist!

Luo Binghe doesn't know what to think of him at first. Clumsy, starry-eyed, always with his nose in the books like he's trying to memorise all the characters, not just its contents, talented enough, but lacking in experience, perfect recipe for disaster. He needs to keep an eye on him if he doesn't want to deal with a dead disciple.

But. It's strange. No one's ever looked at him like that. He knows his disciples admire him, but all of them are so terrified of him they don't dare to get close, lest they end up doing more chores as punishment. But, this Shen Yuan. It's like. Like he's not scared? Like Luo Binghe is...someone worthy of hero-worship. He can't even admit it to himself, but he cannot help but preen under his clumsy disciple's adoring gaze.

Then, a candle accidentally falls in Shen Yuan's dorm, and there's no room for him left. All his roommates went to their friends' rooms, but Shen Yuan didn't have any close friends on the peak! Where should he go???

Luo Binghe…feels he needs to play the good Shizun. It's just an act, of course. He doesn't actually care for the boy. He needs to play the cool, distant immortal, kind enough to take in a stray. He has Shen Yuan move into his side room, BUT only temporarily.

And so it begins.

Luo Binghe finds himself enjoying having someone to cook for again. He himself doesn't need to eat, so he only really does it when trying to woo a demoness into his bed. But with Shen Yuan, it's different. He hasn't cooked for someone just for them to satiate their hunger since his mother. It almost feels…intimate. Seeing Shen Yuan not eat his food so much as inhale it, hearing the sincere praise from the child's mouth… It's all too much.

It doesn't help that the boy is actually quite shameless. Taking off all his layers except one the moment he's home, even his pants! He is just prancing around with all his skin for the world to see! It makes him want to scold him, to take his layers and dress him back up himself just so he doesn't have the image of those long, long legs of Shen Yuan's stuck in his mind. So he does, “Disciple Shen should be more mindful of his appearance,” he says, desperately trying to ignore Shen Yuan's pretty red face as he stammers 'shizun' while Luo Binghe ties his robes, “Anyone could walk in, it's indecent.” And incredibly distracting, he doesn't say.

Few months pass, Luo Binghe realises one thing: this boy is the only person worthy of respect on his entire peak. If something were to happen to him, he would raze the entire mountain to the ground, himself included.

He tries everything just to touch the boy. He fixes his robes, put his hands on his shoulders, picks him up during nighthunts when things get intense, and if he touches him a little more than necessary while correcting his sword forms, well, no one notices.

For once, something has moved his cold, dead heart and Luo Binghe is a hungry soul, bleeding for more, unwilling to let go of this new tiny light he's found, wishing to devour and devour, till no one else can steal it from him, like everything else good in his miserable, lonely life.

That night, Xie Lian once again changed into women’s clothing.

Although he was no stranger to cross-dressing by now, it was his first time pretending to be a pregnant woman. It took him no more than half an incense time to get his makeup on, and once his face was painted, he stuffed a pillow up his skirts to give himself a belly, with the lock of hair from the expecting concubine hidden in said pillow.

SVSS AU where Shen Yuan is a fallen god, think Xie Lian style but it can even be HC flavored where he jumps from heaven. Anyways either way he is yeeted outta there and is forced to wander, and eventually finds a very devoted boy who prays to various fallen gods in hopes that…something will help him.

He prays to martial gods and literature gods and even simpler gods but he has no money for incense and so his prayers are not given a lot of weight. They aren’t answered.

This culminates when he’s beaten so bad he can’t see out of both eyes, because the blood has swelled then shut, and Shen Yuan gets so mad at the gods for failing this little boy that he slides Binghe a little hint “pray to this god, he may be fallen, but he is very proud and feeding his ego would make him listen to you” basically just a bunch of nonsense in the form of fake legends about himself.

And Binghe does, miraculously, each prayer is answered. Just a year later, he’s happy and warm and safe in his Yuan-gege’s manor and the food is tasty and the cuddles are amazing and…okay Shen Yuan might have pavloved Luo Binghe. But it’s too late to backtrack now, so, Binghe is just a paladin for this god now. He’s constantly praying, and he literally becomes DESPERATE to talk about his amazing god who takes care of everything <3 and honestly Shen yuan wants to die of embarrassment every time because he doesn’t like hearing himself be complimented!!!

But then Binghe is like twenty five and still wondering why his Yuan-gege won’t confess his godhood yet. Is he not devout enough??? Should he pray more??? Compliment him more??? But nothing is workingggg!!!

And also!! How hard is it to seduce one man?!?!??!

Anyways these are some unused worm brains from my new god! Bingyuan fic called: build god, then we’ll talk on ao3!! Go read it 🔪

Hi Foub! For the SJ adopts CrowYuan:

If A-Yuan has so many crow like tendencies, would SQQ get him amenities for crows? Like a perch, bird bath and whateverse else crows need. Or is he getting him more baby stuff? A mixture of the two? (This is merely an excuse to get you talking more about A-Yuan and SQQ's life together)

I bet Papa SQQ brings his son to class because he doesn't trust anyone with his babey.

Henlo Chablie! Thank yew for the ask, of course. Or well, it WAS a THANKS before you YELLED AT ME FOR NOT ANSWERING YOUR ASK. YEAH. CALLING YOU OUT. PUTTING YOU ON BLAST. YOU'RE LUCKY I'M ANSWERING THIS. (/silly) Anyway the literal moment that Shen Jiu is like "yeah this is my son now", he's carrying the baby with him all the way to An Ding to add a new section to the budget - Child Spending. A-Yuan is his baby, and will be spoiled ROTTEN because Shen Jiu never was and he was a fucked up child. Shang Qinghua hears boss music and just slides down beneath his desk because maybe if he hides, he can avoid the boss battle. Of course, that has never worked in games, why on earth would it work in real life? Shen Jiu comes storming in, reaches beneath the desk and drags Shang Qinghua out kicking and screaming to force him to deal with the situation he's bringing to him. Baby A-Yuan watches his new baba drag out this strange man and (quite intuitively) decides that this human is not scary because he's weak and pathetic and cries a lot. Plus, he has those demonic instincts ingrained in him so he sees the rough handling of the man and goes "ahhhh baba's got a boyfriend" because he's one smart little cookie!! Anyway, instead of listening to Shang Qinghua's stuttering greetings, Shen Jiu just places A-Yuan onto the desk and lets him stare at the man for a while.

Shang Qinghua can only stare at the baby for a few seconds before he becomes irreparably weak to him and he's like "fuck you're so right you should have so much more money, A-Jiu." After a bonk on the head with a fan, Shen Jiu goes back to Qing Jing with a smug look in his eyes because yes, he very much knows how to get the budget working in his favour without having to go to stupid Yue Qingyuan! The moment this money is handed over to him, he is writing letters fucking everywhere. That random in-depth study session on crows really helps him out when it comes to buying things for his baby. He also thinks about everything that he ever wanted as a child, and buys all of that as well. Where is all the money coming from? Listen. LISTEN. Bai Zhan is basically a peak full of animals anyway, they don't need that much for the peak, not with Liu Qingge being paid in the adrenaline that comes from fighting and the children only accepting food and weapons as payment because honestly, Bai Zhan is filled with really weird as fuck kids - Liu Qingge really knows how to fucking pick them-

Also, Shen Jiu is obviously bringing A-Yuan everywhere he goes. Classes? Baby in his lap, chewing on his calligraphy brush and giving very good advice like 'ababa' and 'gah' and, of course, 'bleh'. (Sorry to that one disciple, who had to redo their work after the baby threw up on it.) When he's at a peak lord meeting? A-Yuan is yappering to himself like he's got his own meeting going on, doodling on a blank piece of paper with a very serious expression or cuddling into Shen Jiu, who looks like the smuggest motherfucker around because he has the cutest baby ever. Either that, or, inexplicably, he's wriggling around in Shang Qinghua's grasp, taking great delight in messing with all all of his perfectly organised documents for the meeting or even chewing on the papers. Or the man himself. Shen Jiu still looks smug, and Yue Qingyuan looks like he's going to have an aneurysm with every second that passes. If Shen Jiu needs to go on a mission? There's a BABY ON BOARD, and ANY DEMON AROUND SHOULD RESPECT THAT. (They do lmfao. They see the baby and they're like "shit, that's a baby on board. Let's not attack the green one, he's a MOTHER AND HE'S JUST HAD A BABY. ONE WITH WINGS.")

I will preach the word of size difference Bingyuan until my final breath.

npc!shen yuan applies for a job opening on qiong ding for librarian smth like that, and yue qingyuan has barely looked at his resume or spoken to him before hiring him on the spot.

at first shen yuan is excited and proud cus wow he aced that job interview, can it really be this easy??? then he meets shen qingqiu and sees they could easily pass for brothers and have the same surname, so for a little while he's grumbly and annoyed that the sect leader only hired him bc of his resemblance to the scum villain, which honestly hurts a bit you know.

but then, double plot twist, the resemblance had nothing to do with it, yue qingyuan just saw an eager young man who had compiled all of his experience and skills on a single paper (yue qingyuan's overworked heart cried tears of joy), who seemed genuinely passionate about library work and treats the other workers well.

bonus thought: at first shen qingqiu has the same suspicion as well, that yue qingyuan was just hiring a lookalike for some weird reason, but then he meets shen yuan, sees the work that he does and is like "i have to have this man for my peak" and starts trying to poach him.
