    Summary

    Xie Lian's last believer is so fervently devoted to him that he seems to think mostly in the form of prayer. That is a terrifying prospect. Xie Lian has never heard of such a case before, not even in hypotheticals, and he finds himself hoping, for his believer's sake, that there is some other explanation for this phenomenon.

    Whatever the reason, a low stream of his believer's thoughts hum in the back of Xie Lian's consciousness.

    His believer does not seem to be aware of it.

    _

    When Xie Lian ascends for the third time, he is welcomed back to godhood with prayers that he hadn't expected: an ongoing stream of thought from his sole remaining believer. He gathers quickly that this believer is very old, very powerful, and very, very much in love with him.

    For his believer's sake, Xie Lian can cast a spell to shut the prayers out—but only if he has access to spiritual energy.

    Summary

    Could you eat respect, if you were hungry? Would respect keep you warm at night when you were freezing? If a sword were held to your throat, could respect block it?

    When the laughter of your enemies filled your ears, could the respect of a single man let you ignore it? Did it really matter so much, to have someone see you as you truly were and to still decide you were worth something?

    …yes. It seemed that it did.

    (in which Meng Yao, who'd never met a single moral in his life, decides nevertheless to be a good person)

    Summary

    Nie Mingjue had known from the very first.

    In the end, it hadn’t been his Baxia that had taken out Wen Ruohan the way he’d wanted it to be, putting that awful man out of his misery and ending the nightmare he’d created for the rest of them. Despite that, after Nie Mingjue had shoved the corpse off of his body and gotten to his feet, he’d still brought his Baxia down on the man’s neck, cutting his head off so that he could take it back to the Unclean Realm to set as an offering before his father’s memorial tablet.

    He’d used his Baxia to cut Wen Ruohan’s head off, and yet, at the same…he hadn’t.

    He hadn’t, because it wasn’t entirely his Baxia anymore.

    Summary

    “Qi-shimei,” Shen Qingqiu greets her. His voice isn’t that much higher than normal, but enough so that there’s a noticeable difference. She’s pretty sure Shen Qingqiu isn’t even trying to lower it back down to his normal register.

    “Shen-shixiong,” Qi Qingqi says. “What—”

    “Shijie,” Shen Qingqiu corrects.

    Qi Qingqi blinks. “Pardon?”

    “Shijie, not shixiong.”

    or: Shen Qingqiu falls, quite literally, into one of Airplane's wife plots. As it's still several years before Luo Binghe's return, Shen Qingqiu continues her wandering around the jianghu in her new (temporary) body. What could possibly go wrong?
