Summary:

It’s been over a week since Xie Lian checked in which, for Mu Qing, is about the longest silence since the one that lasted 800 years. He should probably be glad for the quiet, but instead…

Instead he calls in Feng Xin’s help, and goes to see what’s wrong.

He should have expected this, honestly.

Feng Xin and Mu Qing arrive at the house on Mt. Taicang to find Xie Lian 8 years old both in body and mind. The main problem? Xie Lian isn’t the only one who’s 8 years old. What are two gods to do with a Hong Hong-er?

Honestly, reading Heaven’s Official Blessing first and then The Grandmaster of Demonic Cultivation is such a unique experience

These novels are my first introduction to Chinese fantasy where characters practice cultivation. And first of all, it perfectly illustrates the difference in power: I’ve already read about gods and demons and seen what they’re capable of. So now, when it’s young “ordinary” cultivators…

suddenly all those creatures are actually a problem? Now no one can just look at them and kill them with a single glance or a simple movement of one hand???

And the biggest difference is in how the characters treat the souls of dead people

The gods barely even blinked at various ghosts. Xie Lian worried about Ban Yue and even said something like “Yes, ghosts can have trouble adapting too”

Everyone felt sympathy for the demoness Xuan Ji - or pitied her, even though by that point she was completely unhinged and beyond saving

But in each of them, the characters of TGCF still saw the person these ghosts once were — someone alive, someone with feelings.

They saw the cause and the consequences. They considered them worthy of an emotion, even if that emotion was pity for a dead soul. Nobody disregarded that the dead have emotions, even if the character didn’t give a single fuck about those emotions

Whereas in MDZS, despite how all those cultivators keep shouting about how important human souls are and whatever — they no longer see people in the dead

Suddenly, the human soul isn’t important anymore. You can just disregard them and their entire previous existence

it’s depressing

No wonder none of them ascended

oh HELP. hi stop let’s do this

XIE LIAN:

im really normal abt him. the normalest guy that ever existed abt xie lian. he’s incredible and amazing and the free space = love of my life and im chewing on him and every time i think abt how mxtx upped the whump scale in the revised edition i flop over and cry. its really easy to project onto him also. sometimes u will think abt him a bit too hard and end up with 1.9k words of rambling nonsense abt his hesitance to allow himself to love and be loved

ANTHY:

its also SO easy to project onto anthy. she makes me stare in awe like. she’s less a blorbo and more the character i watch with deep fascination bc holy shiiiit she really is #THAT girl in anime. isn’t she. i kind of want to put her in More situations (of the emotional kind, so to speak) because. yeah. also her design is really good….

An absolute gem find

ill-sought indulgence #246

red curtains of your abode and

your red discarded robe; you’ve never

cared much for your belongings, all

a means and not a goal

my robe’s there, too– black, of exquisite

silk (fishbones stitched in gold thread)

and i really wouldn’t deserve that,

that status – yet it’s also a means to revenge.

porcelain ware of the utmost quality

piled with meat and poultry and greens;

ornate pastries with a golden glaze

satiety– i taste that word (it feels rotten)

swallow those syllables – they clog

my throat; i scrabble at my neck

not to choke. it sits ill in my stomach,

that contentment. unearned. undeserved.

(i really shouldn’t be here, laying next to you

and your robe of red silk; something as

wretched as i am should’ve long perished)

i reach for another pastry; lick the glaze

from my fingers. it’ll add to the debt.
