    Summary

    How did things end up like this?

    He knows. He knows the reason why he has been put through so much suffering. Why he lost everything he worked so hard for, everything he cared about.

    He knows yet he still can’t bring himself to accept it.

    Wasn’t this too much?

    Was all the agony he endured until now just not enough?

    Just how much more is he going to take from me?

    Summary

    By a twist of fate and sheer stubbornness, Shen Jiu is granted a chance to rewrite the story, to save his sect, Yue Qingyuan, and the entire world from his wayward disciple. But this time, he knows that Luo Binghe is an undefeatable protagonist, which means the simplest solution is off the table. Yet Shen Jiu refuses to give up—he hatches a plan to rid himself of the infuriating creature once and for all, without resorting to killing.

    However, in this life, nothing goes quite as he had planned…

    Summary

    As it goes, eyes are the most sinful sense. Next is mouth which spouted out many insults and abuse.

    How different would it be if only Shen Jiu never saw Luo Binghe? Never get to project his envy and hatred after what he had seen?

    In which, Shen Jiu was blind.

    Summary

    Cicatrize (v)
    to find healing by the process of forming scars

     

    Shen Jiu did not ask to wake up in Lingxi caves, disoriented and in pain, nor he asks for (re)living a deja vu with several new twists. But that's what he got, and thus he has no other options than goes with the flow while making sure he won't forget who is he.

     

    Now, if a certain someone would get the memo that he is his own person and not a clay to shaped into something he was not, he would be very happy.

    Summary

    Original Shen Qingqiu dies twice and lives into Airplane's one of the many altered drafts of PIWD which never was the published canon.

    He gathered all of his dogged loyalty, his bonedeep weariness, his spite that bites his own ass… and takes his chance to leave it all his influential mentors (Qiu Jianluo, Wu Yanzi, Shizun) who rebuild him to be their reflections, their legacies.

    And if it leads him to that reality where that thief who takes and claims and makes a mockery out of everything Shen Jiu has bled, worked, and earned for. He'll verbally eviscerate the thieving cuckoo with this:

    “It must drive you spitting bloody hell seeing your precious Binghe offering me so much.”

    (It's a coin toss, whether the dumbass crybaby would either remain stuck into his delusions or tear down the poor imitation.

    And Shen Jiu will have the last laugh.

    Why? He knows well how that world systematically operates on the fact identity reveal is never a good show of hand.)
