#xie lian is actually a good actor/liar

[artingstarvist]

Building on my Xie Lian is basically bugs bunny post, more evidence of him being essentially a trickster god. Feel free to add more.

His communication array password is a prank/trick

He regularly serves food he knows will poison his Friends and Guests. Essentially serving up laxatives, if you will.

Just the fact that he is a god pretending to be his own priest honestly

Pretending he doesn't recognize Nan Feng/Fu Yao and then talking shit about them to their face

Doing the same fucking thing to Hua Cheng when he's pretending to be Lang Ying (less shit talking, but he does mess with him).

Acting all Serious like he's gonna fight LQQ and then just tripping him with Ruoye lol

The I AM GOD flying meatball incident

Dressing up as a lady bugs bunny style so he can hide.

And dressing up as both a bride and a pregnant woman to lure two different ghosts also lol

Tormenting the Venerable of Empty Words (kind of a 'I'm not trapped with you, you're trapped with me' thing)

He's the only one who can actually rile up Qi Rong

Pretending to be HC's puppet to hide among the ghosts

I just love that because he avoids fighting unless he has to, his solution is usually to dress up and lie all the time. No wonder Hua Cheng is in love he's honestly so funny.
