    Summary

    In order to be rid of an overly relentless stalker, Shen Yuan makes the questionable and admittedly rather desperate decision to seek help from a demon.

    The demon he ultimately summons, however, is a bit…different than he imagined.

    Summary

    Shen Yuan transmigrates as an infant into what is basically just a xanxia remold of his previous life, and meets Luo Binghe while they're both disciples of Cang Qiong Mountain Sect. The only problem: he doesn't realize he's a transmigrator and his memories of Proud Immortal Demon Way have been locked away. Surely that won't cause any problems, though. Surely he can protect the protagonist from his fate and make a better end to the story somehow anyway... right?

    Summary

    Shang Qinghua would like to be very clear that there are no selkies in the world of Proud Immortal Demon Way.

    “They’re called seal spirits,” he says, when Shen Qingqiu complains about seeing a pod of them on a mission to the coast with Liu Qingge.

    “They’re selkies,” Shen Qingqiu says, giving Shang Qinghua his best withering ‘you are a sellout’ look. "In chapter 347, Luo Binghe has to recover the lost pelt of a Selkie-meimei who had it stolen by a poacher. He brought it to her and she transformed and brought him to that underwater cave with the glowing seashells, where he found those mermaid sisters—”

    “If seal spirits happen to also need their pelts to transform,” Shang Qinghua sniffs, “Then that’s simply a coincidence.”

    Shen Qingqiu throws a pillow at him.

    Shang Qinghua is a selkie, and Mobei-Jun won't stop taking naps on his pelt.

    Summary

    He would like to blame Yue Qingyuan for shattering his illusions of cultivators being peerlessly elegant immortals, but it was really Shen Yuan’s fault, if he was going to blame anyone.

    In which Shen Jiu pets a creepy creature, becomes head disciple, and (mostly) figures out his life.
