Shoutout to Xie Lian for being a protagonist with absolutely no goals and no involvement in driving the overarching plot of his own book

TGCF book 3: Hualian are in the coffin this is not straight content

TGCF live action: in a coffin five feet apart

Hua Cheng [in heaven kicking the asses of those 33 heavenly officials]:

Xie Lian [on earth unaware of what’s going on up in heaven, just collecting scrap and unbothered]:

No more bare minimum love interests. If my s/o doesn't defeat and utterly humiliate the gods who looked down on me by beating them on the areas they are known to excel at while livestreaming it for their followers to see and then burn down their temples thus stripping them of their godhoods, then what's the point?

Obsessed with Xie Lan as a character. Like I know everyone reads these books for the romance but the individual character concepts are hilarious.

Xie Lan is a prince. He eats poison on the reg. He’s forever stuck looking like he’s nineteen. He’s the oldest guy in the communication array. He knows kung fu. He dressed in drag to catch a ghost on two separate unrelated occasions. He’s the world greatest detective. He’s kind. He was forced into a trolley problem and chose to pull the lever. His cooking is awful to the point it could kill a god. He’s kind. He tried to give CPR to a ghost. He’s the unluckiest man alive. He’s been kicked out of heaven multiple times. He’s kind. He caught a kid from certain death and everyone was pissed at him forever about it. He regrets nothing but coming back to heaven.

I really do think the fandom underestimate Xie Lian's own values and kindness while kinda overestimating the kindness the guy who gave him the Bamboo hat in the scene in the rain.

Don't get me wrong, the Bamboo hat is important and the fact that someone went to help him is also important. But it's just the excuse. Xie Lian decided by himself to lie in the rain and gave humanity another chance first. He was trying to convince himself that he didn't believe in the kindness of people anymore while still giving them another chance. He was probably going to lie in the rain until someone, anyone gave him that kindness anyway.

The Bamboo hat is the excuse as to why Xie Lian didn't turn into Jun Wu, but the actual reason is that Xie Lian had the strength to stand in the rain and wait for someone to show him he was right. A thing Jun Wu never did.

Mxtx: Have you seen this place? It’s a freakin’ mess. The cultivators and demons are having what looks like a turf war, Heaven’s Officials have been hanging out with the ghosts, that simply can’t be a good influence on them.

Readers: Heaven’s Officials or the ghosts?

Mxtx, sobbing: EITHER!!

The final of the four mxtx ships as dragons!!!

Second Mermay post! This time, here’s a Hua Cheng to go along with the Xie Lian from yesterday!

My first post for Mermay! There will be a matching Hua Cheng to go with this one soon :D

Modern Hualian AU in college???

Honestly I just wanted to draw Hua Cheng drawing on Xie Lian in class 😭

I love giving him sharp teeth and slit pupils 😅

being a modern artist, expectation vs reality

“your highness, crimson rain sought flower, what are the two of you doing? did you exchange verbal passwords? and now you’re exchanging secrets?!”

I finished Heaven Officials Blessing and I won’t spoil but I loved it so much 😭

Here’s a couple San Langs to match the Xie Lian from earlier! I made a couple different variants because I couldn’t decide whether I wanted to draw the donghua or manhua version more XD
