AU where Shen Jiu Qingqiu is forced to confront just how messed up his body and cultivation are

He realizes he's one bad qi deviation away from being a goner, and that qi deviation is basically inevitable in time

So he goes and snatches a suitable body with good spiritual veins. He wanted to put his demonic cultivation behind him, but this is an emergency, and in a matter of life and death, he ALWAYS will find a way to endure.

Except when he performs the ritual to transfer his own consciousness into the acceptable body candidate, something gets messed up, and he transfers someone else into the body instead. Another Shen, so the new inhabitant of the body says, who was dying of food poisoning until Shen Jiu performed the ritual.

This ridiculous Shen Yuan is saying that Shen Jiu saved his life, even though Shen Jiu TOLD him that he was a mistake! He is offering knowledge of the future as thanks, which is only more suspicious!!

But this horrible, spoiled little man does definitely hold a secret close to his chest of some kind, and Shen Qingqiu is determined to figure out what it is before being rid of Shen Yuan.

So Shen Jiu repeats the process of finding a suitable body for himself, repeats the transferal ritual, and--

ANOTHER FUCKING SHEN YUAN SHOWS UP IN THIS BODY TOO!!

((*Slaps roof of this AU* This [Qing Jing Peak] can fit SO MANY fucking [Shen Yuans] in it!))

And then the expected fatal qi deviation... it finally happens. But when it does, the Shen Yuans catch him early on and don't let him die. Shen Jiu isn't sure exactly what they do to him, but his mouth tastes like blood. They definitely transfered energy, alerted Mu Qingfang and Yue Qingyuan, and some unidentified third thing. The Little Beast is clinging to one of the Shen Yuans like a barnacle now, but that's hardly Shen Qingqiu's biggest concern at the moment.

He's alive. His qi is flowing. It hurts like a bitch, even now, but his spiritual pathways seem to be opening up again somehow???

SVSSS Fic Rec

I'm updating it everyday, because time crunch.

(Mostly Bingqiu/Bingyuan, Unless Tagged)

*Different Endless Abyss

Guess I'll Die - Shen Qingqiu goes to the Endless Abyss.

Speak No Evil - SQQ gives up his voice to stop Endless Abyss. It happens anyway.

*Amnesia

Night of Yearning - Luo Binghe forgets Shen Qingqiu.

*Jinlan City Goes Differently/Different Reunion/Different Rebirth

High Mountains, How I long

Dew Over - Shen Qingqiu is reborn in the mushroom body and tries to live as Peerless Cucumber.

Honesty is Such a Lonely Word - Shen Qinqiu faces the trial, and Old Palace Master uses a truth-finding artefact.

*Time Loop/Time Travel

Just Like A Monkey (I've Been Dancing My Whole Life) - Instead of being reborn after self-destructing, Shen Qingqiu keeps coming back on the Stairs of the Brothel in Jinlan City.

Master of Dual Cultivation Series - Shen Yuan reboots his time in PIDW. He is traumatised and less happy-go-lucky. This one is multi, with Liu Qingge and Yue Qingyuan getting more focus uptill now (in the first two stories) but Luo Binghe is important too.

*Shen Jiu and Shen Yuan

Deluxe System 2.0: Co-op Mode!

Found Brother Shen brothers.

A-Yuan Has at Least Three Friends - Shen Qingqiu turns into a kid with both Shen Yuan and Shen Jiu's memory. They are the same person.

Replacement Head Disciple Shen Yuan - Set after the Abyss, before Binghe's return. Shen Brothers.

*Epic (These fics are longer and plot-heavy, and won a special place in my heart)

You Reap What You Sow - Luo Binghe is the transmigrator. I thought it would be so-so, but turned out to be one of the best ones I've ever read. Also has Shen brothers.

Xiangyang - When you are born as the daughter of your murderer, what do you do? A question for the ages. No active pairing, original LBH and his harem is present.

Uprooted - Shen Yuan transmigrates as a minor villain in PIDW. Except he's not.

To Stem the Coming Tide - Shen Qingqiu learns about Shang Qinghua a bit earlier, and they plot to avoid their fate. No Endless Abyss.

*IWYWMH & Its AUs

I Wish You Were My Husband - The epickest of epics. It produced a number of spin-offs of it's own. Maybe I should put them under separate sub-headings when I have time. Bingqiu main pair, but has past yuejiu and hints of one-sided liushen.

A Wish to Change Fate - A great fanfic to IWYWMH. Shen Yuan is actually Shen Jiu's reincarnation. This fic touched my heart in all the right ways, gave me things I didn't even know I craved. Someday I should write about it in details. Hings of Bingjiu/Bingyuan (since both are the same).

No Wish for the Wicked - Shen Yuan wasn't around to take the place of Shen Jiu. Sad.

*Bingge

to love another (and to learn yourself) - Bingge tries to get his own Shizun and brings a Shen Yuan. Even without his cultivation power, Shen Yuan is not a pushover. Binggeyuan.

How to Train Your Shen Qingqiu - Another piece I ignored for a long time, but turned out to be very good. I need to reread it.

*WIP

I usually avoid wips, but here are some of the best ones I read:

I Was Transmigrated as a Sword (Gen up till now)

Lotus Seeds - Shen Yuan runs away to save himself from the horrible fate of the Scum Villain - to the realm of the Lotus Eaters.

Scum Villain's Book of Prophecy - Shen jiu reads PIDW and learns the future. Original Luo Binghe/Original Shen Qingqiu. Almost finished, epic length.

Second chapter of Blood Debt was posted yesterday! This is also known as the AU where Shen Yuan is a vampire, Luo Binghe is a vampire hunter, and Shen Jiu is a dick. Also there’s kidnapping. And more kidnapping?! Maybe?!?!

Rating: M

Warnings: References to violence, suicidal thoughts and ideation, blood-drinking because vampire (although it’s unsexy because it’s from bags), and thirsting. So much thirsting.

Summary: Shen Yuan meets an older Luo Binghe and is a total disaster about it. Shen Jiu pulling away from him is not helping. Binghe’s tsundere “partner” isn’t helping either.

Notes: This chapter turned out so much longer than the first. I was planning on like, 8K words max and it turned out just shy of 10K. N-Neat! I worked really hard on keeping up Yuan’s Clown Narration...and the thirsting. I hope you like clownery and thirsting. That is like, 90% of this chapter. The other 10% is suffering.

Please contact a lifeline if you or a loved one is struggling with mental health!
