    Summary

    “You don’t even count as human, and you still want to become an immortal? You’ve missed the optimal time to begin cultivating – what can you become? Even if you muddle along with him, that charlatan Wu Yanzi, he isn’t even guaranteed to want you.”

    Shen Jiu growled, wrenching out of Qiu Jianluo’s grip to hurl an ink stone at him. He missed.

    Shen Jiu saw the change in Qiu Jianluo’s face instantly, the man’s hand rising up and blocking out the glow of candlelight. His towering shadow was Qiong Qi given flesh.

    Shen Jiu’s body froze instinctively as he readied himself for a blow.

    But it never came, because when Shen Jiu managed to look up, all he could see was a man’s broad back swathed in black robes, his grip tight around Qiu Jianluo’s wrist.

    “Qiu-gongzi, what could ever make you think that a charlatan like me wouldn’t want this boy as his disciple?”

    Or: Shen Yuan transmigrates into Wu Yanzi’s body and gets followed around by a feral teenager called Shen Jiu… who is kind of obsessed with him.

    Summary

    In spring of the year that Shen Jiu becomes Head Disciple of Qing Jing Peak, his youngest sibling is born in the back room of a poorhouse. Unwilling to raise an unlucky child, his parents sell him to a brokerage at their earliest opportunity.

    Nine years later, when disease tears through the brokerage, he risks speaking up about the things he’s learned from dreams of his past life.

    By the time Mu Qingfang arrives with his disciples to quell the epidemic, it’s already under control, at the direction of a little boy who’s been a slave since infancy.

    Cang Qiong’s Miracle Doctor takes him back to Qian Cao Peak and dresses him in blue and white. His new disciple pours tea for him with trembling excitement.

    By the end of the day, his older brother all but kicks the door down, breathing fire and poison.

    Summary

    After an error in the System, Shen Yuan finds himself being "accommodated" by being allowed to transmigrate into Shen Qingqiu's son. There's a couple of problems - Luo Binghe's fucked up childhood, his new dad becoming a human stick, the horrible writing of Airplane Shooting Towards the Sky - but there's one in particular that won't seem to leave Shen Yuan's mind.

    Namely, the Scum Villain never had a son.

    (In the distance, Shang Qinghua is left wondering just what the hell happened to his PIDW.)

    Summary

    When Shen Yuan woke up in Proud Immortal Demon Way and saw his tiny, bruised, and battered body, his first thought was: God, please don’t let me be Luo Binghe! Anyone with a brain can tell I have no capacity for enduring suffering! Mercy, System, mercy!

    Shortly thereafter, as the recently purchased property of the scum villain Shen Qingqiu himself, Shen Yuan had to wonder if maybe that first thought wouldn’t have been so bad after all. At least Luo Binghe had the protagonist halo! Never in a million years would the protagonist have had to endure the humiliation of being dragged kicking and screaming into the home of the scum villain, who… might not be that scummy after all?

    Summary

    “Spiritual weapons do not choose wielders based on talent, or merits. I’ve seen many a fine cultivator make a common sword magnificent, and just as many undeserving of what they wield. Just as your fate fixes you to your body, fate fixes a sword to one destined Heart.”

    Shen Yuan was an outer disciple of middling talent, hailing from a small sect in a forgotten corner of the Jianghu, that had few resources and fewer living elders. The death of his shifu sends him to Cang Qiong Mountain Sect, hoping perhaps there is where he’ll finally find a spiritual sword of his own.

    Xuan Su finds him first.
