#None of them qualify as unpopular 🤣

I love it. (there's an unpopular opinion for you, at least in the fandom at large haha) My personal headcanon is that after all the shit went down in the temple, LXC got hold of some Sun and Moon whatwhat mushroom spores and grew JGY a mushroom body, fed on LXC's qi and JGY's blood.

Everyone thought he was in seclusion, but no he was just tending JGY's body and practicing his demonic cultivation, plus trying to figure out how to get jgy out without bring NMJ along.

Once the body was ready he played JGY's soul into the body and they fucked off to go live on a mountain somewhere and raise yaks.

And I realise that this may have been more a fic idea than an unpopular opinion, so here's another: I'm a big fan of the idea that LXC was not just oblivious to JGY killing NMJ with Turmoil, but actively complicit. It's something I haven't been able to get out of my head since I read a meta/fic (it's a fic but it's presented as a historical paper, is there a word for that?) presenting some really compelling points on the subject.

It's just so juicy! I'm not sure it works with canon because there are some parts that only work if LXC is either ignorant of the situation or lying like a pro, but I love it.

Do any of these even count?

This one might be? I think JGY could be happy as Lan-furen, if the stars aligned and the fates were kind.
