"What the heck is this ???"

Shizun Binghe would be so freaking mad that Shang Qinghua is friends with Shen Yuan.

Okay see the most dangerous think about Shang qinghua being shen yuans friend is that binghe doesn't understand the appeal. With mu qingfang he's always worried mqf will abuse his authority as a doctor to feel up shen yuans body, or he sees shen yuan praising Liu qingges fighting skills and nearly goes crazy.

But Shang qinghua is the only person shen yuan will be outwardly rude with. They share secret letters. They're from the same hometown, and sometimes talk in its unintelligible dialect. They say they've known each other for years. The way they're so obviously close but don't feign politeness makes binghe SO envious. That should be HIM and shen yuan bickering like an old married couple. He hates it.

Binghe: Shang qinghua is one of your spies isn't he

Mobei jun: yes

Binghe: interrogate him. Torture him if you must. We need to find out what "memes" are and why they make shen yuan laugh so easily-

Mobei: they're jokes

Binghe: YOU ALREADY KNOW!?

They're all ambushed on a night hunt and the bandit leader says he'll allow binghe to surrender. Binghe looks dead at shen yuan and says "nah I'd win." Shen yuan is choking screaming . It's so corny. He's so bad at this. The protagonist is like an old person trying to be relatable to the youth. Its terrible. It's amazing.

Not Chronically Ill in first life SY enter's SQQ's body, who does have severe chronic illness as a result of his childhood and adolescence. SY is basically in constant musculoskeletal pain AND it feels like lava and or ice water to push qi through his meridians sometimes.

And he's stuck with the OOC lock like that. He goes to MQF before going to the Lingxi caves because he's honestly concerned this body is gonna have another fatal qi deviation if he does secluded cultivation in a place like that.

So after some therapy, MQF goes with him to find a spot to cultivate and therefore is there when LQG starts deviating.

All of this to say, he's in slightly better shape come the demon invasion and LQG is much better and quicker on the draw, so SY is saved w/o a cure, but he's still got everything else.

These horrible problems cause SY to push and bully the system to give him missions so he can learn SJ's actual backstory. Once he does, he understands and wants to redeem the scum villain bc he wants to see the best in everyone.

He finds a plot device flower to create a clone of himself (the wife who used it had taken in her sister's soul as teenagers and they were doing a timeshare on the body - a villain had used it to duplicate himself to try to overpower LBH)

He manages to find it before the IAC. SJ is not happy that some dumbass took over his body, but is somewhat mollified to have a much healthier body. He's less happy for the imposter, who is already on thin fucking ice, to read him the riot act about being aggro at YQY, he can't help that he was trapped i nthe Lingxi caves healing all of his broken bones

HE WAS WHAT

Uh oh, SY didn't know SJ didn't know that.

SY tries to run for it, but oh no, SJ is going to take full advantage of having an identical twin to deal with people and things he doesn't want. Imposter wanted his life? He can have it :)

LBH is ousted from the bamboo house, but SY still dotes on him.

YQY is very confused, but since SJ is a) back and b) talking to him, sure, yes, fine, Xiao Yuan has been here the whole time, he totally knew.

(They gaslight the other peak lords)

SV AU where LBH starts hyperfixating on studying divination so he can map out a calendar of auspicious days to marry SQQ

Once he thinks he has the technique down, he has to find SQQ's 8 characters, but even at 17 he's not quite confident enough to think he can either schmooze or break in to QD's file room, but he does think he can get into An Ding's back up storage.

He finds evidence of MBJ/SQH, but he doesn't have time for that besides feeling relief at another peak lord/demon lord couple. He has a wedding to plan.

While he didn't learn SJ was a slave, he realizes the file is incomplete because SQQ either doesn't know or deliberately hid it. Shizun is perfect so obviously he wouldn't hide something like that

Back to his divination studies.

He eventually gets a set of 8 characters he's satisfied with, but they can't be right. They put SQQ as only a few years older than him and that can't be right.

More divination studies. SQQ is getting worried LBH isn't taking the IAC seriously and thus will struggle in the Abyss. LBH just hides his divination studies and doubles up his work load. This is fine, he couldn't get more from the divination peak without people asking too many questions anyway

So while he's on a night hunt, he hurries through the mission and takes the extra time to consult with Madam Meiyin.

She, knowing he is instrumental to the fate of the world, though not the details, gives him some pointers and a few scrolls.

Once he's had time to go over everything and try the new techniques, he has a break through:

His shizun is not Shen Jiu.

Oh shit oh fuck

Okay okay so obviously SY transmigrates as SJ's brother, but imagine IMAGINE that SY transmigrates as SJ's sister who wasn't abandoned or sold off.

They look similar enough to be twins and could pass off as each other with just some clothes and makeup. There is NO QUESTION they are related (though both will deny it with identical mannerisms)

SY goes to HHP because he (she? He's not sure he should be so comfortable being called by she/her but this is his body now so maybe it makes sense?) isn't going to miss out on cultivating but he's definitely also not going to get killed with the rest of CQM.

He and Su-dashijie meet Yue Qi at the IAC and YQ is very strange and awkward and looks ill which is NOT how the rumors painted him, but well, SY supposes, CQM would put out rumors that their head disciple is great so whatever.

When YQ runs into SJ every single truth spills from his mouth because he's just relieved SJ didn't get forcefemed and amnesia'd

SJ is furious at Qi-ge of course a little fire couldn't kill him and what the actual FUCK is he taking about

omgggggg, your role reversal au is so good… Shizun Binghe thinks he’s making Shen Yuan his little wife but lbh cleans the bamboo house, gently rouses sy in morning for a breakfast he lovingly prepared, and whines when sy leaves to attend to his head disciple duties. and the entire time lbh and like “haha! my evil plan of wife-ing A-Yuan is working” and sy is smiling to himself like “I wonder what shizun is going to make for dinner :)”

Brooo he'd be such a "crazy housewife" stereotype...

Shen Yuan: I'll be back in a few days, there's a demon terrorizing villagers-

Binghe with tears: oh another one of your "business trips" huh. I bet Liu qingge is going with you too, isn't he!?

Shen Yuan: shizun there are people that are having their skin stolen.
