any analysis of jin guangyao that asserts his key motivations stem from a desire for power, rather than from fear and filial piety, should probably be revised to at least acknowledge the role that fear and filial piety played in creating a desire for power.

#mdzs meta #jin guangyao #i don’t even disagree that he had ambition and needed power to accomplish it #he absolutely did #but jgy recognized that power was a tool not a destination #and he could use that tool first and foremost to achieve his birthright #which would grant him safety and security that nothing else in the cultivation world #and no *one* else in the cultivation world #could conceivably give him #salty peak sect 🧂
