    Summary

    Two years after Binghe was forced to begin his demonic blackening, the System breaks its stubborn silence.

    [Congratulations! Congratulations!! Congratulations!!! Important things must be said three times!! Host User has received a Key Item and unlocked a Platinum Tier Hidden Quest! Please continue to work hard!]
    {{ FOLDED FANS AND SORROWED SMILES }}
    -Current Objective: (Speak to Yue Qingyuan)

    This is NOT how Shen Qingqiu was expecting this to go, but maybe a side quest from the sect leader is just what he needs to avoid the pickle jar! But… maybe this isn’t going to be as simple as he thought?!

    (Or: Shen Yuan unlocks character companion mode, and Shenanigans Ensue.)

    Summary

    Still, he wishes, desperately and deep down in the back of his mind where he will never have to acknowledge it, for even a little bit of that sweet boy to survive, for even a little bit of his darling white lotus to stay with him.

    With a soft exhale, Shen Qingqiu opens his eyes and stares a little longer at the lotus blossom. Then, before he can think better of it, he plucks the blossom from its stem and reaches behind himself, carefully weaving it into the braid he’s tied his hair back in for this trip.

    Hands falling back to his sides, Shen Qingqiu fails to see the way the lotus woven into his braid pulses with a gentle, white glow until its rhythm matches the steady beat of his heart.

    Or

    Shen Qingqiu has an encounter with a very special flower that grants him a very special wish, one that he doesn't even know he's made.

    (Aka, SQQ wishes upon a flower and gets pregnant.)

    Summary

    At this time of night, there are only a few especially committed customers gracing the main, lower floor of the Warm Red Pavilion. He has little worry to give to his identity being revealed. A few girls tend to the customers on the floor, smiling sweetly as they listen to their stories and sit only a little closer than propriety would typically allow. On a small stage, across the room, a young woman plays the pipa with precise, careful fingers with her delicately painted eyes downcast towards the instrument and her lips parted in concentration.

    He has never seen her here before, and for a moment Shen Jiu’s fingers twitch, itching for a brush he doesn’t have—the image she paints so picturesque he finds himself longing to immortalize it. Surely, though, if he did, she would only laugh a soft, sweet laugh, and tell him how he flatters her, all while pushing the painting back into his arms.

    Or

    Shen Jiu meets a young man at the Warm Red Pavilion, and maybe, just maybe, it changes the course of his life.

    Summary

    Xie Lian gets a glimpse of its eye: a hot coal set deep into unearthly, marble-like skin, onyx pupil blown so wide with bloodlust it threatens to swallow the red iris entirely. A mouth full of entirely too many teeth, extended incisors bared like daggers. Rust smeared down the pale line of its throat.

    A vampire. A feral vampire.

    Looking at him like a feast set out before a starving man.

    While wandering the mortal realm, Xie Lian stumbles upon a hungry vampire who, curiously, seems reluctant to drink from him.

    Summary

    As a young disciple, Luo Binghe meets a kind yet mysterious young master who takes a shining to him.

    As an emperor, Luo Binghe is gifted a captive.

    The poacher bows low and retreats into the shadows for a moment as Luo Binghe watches him with a bored look from his throne, one leg swung carelessly over the other.

    Feathers strew the cage, and the figure looks human. It’s screeching and cursing, voice broken, and Luo Binghe does not feel a single thing stir within him. Sweating under the unimpressed look, the demon reaches a scaly hand between the bars of the cage and tugs at the sack over the creature’s head, yanking harshly.

    Time ceases for a moment; Luo Binghe’s stomach drops through the ground. A battered man looks up at him, deep grey eyes widening as their gazes meet. Luo Binghe’s chest clenches, and his hands stiffen at the sight. His heart thumps loudly in his throat, and the air escapes from his lungs, leaving him in a stunned silence.

    “Binghe?” rasps a familiar voice.
