Your Shidi

Imagine if Shen Yuan transmigrated a little later as Luo Binghes Shidi two years before Luo Binghe was fated to falling into the abyss and thought if he befriended Luo Binghe MAYBE he might live?

Shen Yuan transmigrates too late.

He found himself digging holes at Cang Qiong for the entrance exam.

He didn't know what he’d do if he ended up in Qing Jing Peak, was Binghe here yet? Was he in the abyss?

What use was it to join the sect only to be burned with rest lf them when he didnt even know who Luo Binghe even was?

This sucked!

Then to too it all kff Shen Qingqiu decided to pick him!

Shen Yuan had no idea how take the villain so he kept his fave neutral and bland as kf he was bored.

Any expression this scumbag will have an issue with and use it as an excuse to punish him!

He assumed he had no family so he said he was an orphan and he had no one.

He poured the tea correctly, and waited for the man to pour it on him or stab him with a tea cup.

“Good enough, go with Ming Fan. He give you your robes and manual.”

Shen Yuan was immediately worried he would be sabotaged but after getting to know the disciples and being treated well he realised maybe it was only Luo Binghe who was targeted.

Even so, if he wanted to survive he had to be a good enough cultivator to leave the mountain and be a rogue cultivator!

But then he saw him, when Shen Yuan was doing his own chores of chtting wood he froze when he saw an older bly walk past him.

The bly gazed at him his eyes narrowed.

“Is something wrong, Shidi?”

That was Luo Binghe. Luo Binghe who was older almost the same age when he-

Shen Yuan closed his gaping mouth-

“Ah apologies Shixiong! This one didnt mean to stare!”

He was doomed, there was no way he could be friends with Luo Binghe- it was too late and he doubted he would make an impact.

Luo Binghe didnt smile, only looked down on Shen Yuan, he wondered if this was when he started realising the injustice of his situation.

“Would Shidi like some help chtting wood?”

Shen Yuan stiffened- make the protagonist do his chores! Did he look like a masochist!?

“No way!” He yelled and the other looked stunned almost offended and Shen Yuan backtracked-

“These are my chores- if this one can’t do this then how can I proudly call myself a cultivator! I ah-“ Shen Yuan bowed “Thanking Shixiong for offering!”

Luo Binghe said nothing.

Shen Yuan looked back up then shifted “Uh- but um, if Shixiong doesn’t mind he could stay and talk while I work, I can do blth- unless your busy then you need nkt waste your time with this shidi!”

Luo Binghe only hummed as he leaned near a tree crossing his arms.

“This one doesn’t mind the company, plus someone has to watch you in case you get hurt.”

Shen Yuan stared, but no one was there when Luo Binghe got hurt.

“Hmm what is it?”

Sonething must have shown on his face, Shen Yuan couldn’t help but smile.

“You’re so kind.

Shen Yuan had no idea that this was how it was going to go.

Shen Qingqiu was rotting in a dungeon, Yue Qingyuan died.

But the reason why only Qing Jing Peak was destroyed and the mountain was spared was because of him.

Him! Shen Yuan!

Sure it could be worse but just imagine what he could’ve done if he transmigrated sooner!

But Cang Qiing didnt appreciate the sentiment, Luo Bknghe was even kind enough to spare the library so they coukd rebuild and start over-

But none of the peak lords wanted Shen Yuan, or the peak. They decided to keep it as the eleven peaks instead and take it as a lesson from Shen Qingqiu a name they will forever curse.

A cursed generation kf failed peak lords,

And so Shen Yuan took all of teh disciples under Shen Qingqiu then later Ming Fan now Shen Yuan.

Ning Yingying shoukd have taken over as next in line but she was in the palace with Luo Binghe.

And she wasn’t welconed either.

And tge good news kept coming as most of the disciples returned home.

After all their families were rich and payed good money for their children to succed in life having them part if a disgraced peak was the opposite si they begged the mountain to take them into other peaks in their stead.

Qi Qingqi as the now acting Sect Leader allowed such a thing, she was only the actingbhead until the new head disciple was ready to take over Yue Qingyuans place.

So Shen Yuan was supposed to trail sadly with his entourage down the town and be mocked and jeered as they tried to find a place to stay with the money Cang Qiong graciously allowed them.

Shen Yuan scowled as if- no way was he going to just accept defeat like this!

He was going to thrive shre cultivation may be outlawed soon the four great sects have no idea what was coming.

But y’know what Shen Yuan didn’t need cultivation! Knowledge is power!

If they can harvest remedies from flowers and thanks to his knowledge of pidw knows what is a healing tonic and a dangerous poison, knowing what demonic beast will be great for ones constition they’ll survive.

And when Shen Yuan strode past the village with purpose, the disciples, carrying the library of Qing Jing on their backs began to have hope.

Of course when they saw the shack they realised that maybe Qing Jing peak truly waa cursed.

“This will be our new home!” Shen Yuan clapped looking proud, as he turned to the group, eyes crinkled with a secret.

“Now we have plenty kf work to do to make it habitable- so lets split into groups and give each other jobs,” he went to the hallmasters that stayed.

“You will take this and buy what we need, furniture wood, Xao Mei will give you list.”

The hallmasters scowled “Why are we doing grunt work?”

Shen Yuan paused then turned back “As off right now we are a disgraced peak, we are vunerable and what meager belongings we have someone will pick. You are string enoygh to defend yourself and these supplies are improtant if we plan to live here for the foreseeable future. Not to mention people would cheat the children and make them pay more, our hallmasters wknt fall for such tricks or prey to a simple mugging.”

They grit their teeth but nodded as the went fkr their task,

Meanwhile Shen Yuan and the rest of the disciples began to test the small house removing wood or deighning something as strong enough to stay.

Shen Yuan knew they were vunerable, to be attacked so soon into the night.

Hehad already laced the entire perimeter with booby traps and pollen to take out a horse!

He cackled madly into the noght, scaring the men in the woods as Shen Yuan took care of them with only a few swipes of his sword.

The rest lf the men ran away screaming about demons and Shen Yuan laughed even more madly- their faces! Fucking priceless!

And of course he knew the hallmasters were old though some didnt look it, but he knew they would also scheme and grow restless.

It was simple work to use an array on the few scrolls they had, he knew the hallmasters held gold in their hands and wouldn’t think twice to steal secrets from the former Qing Jing Peak and use that to bargain to gain entry into their rival sects.

So it was a matter of time one grew bold.

It was during the night when the silence was pierced with screams,

Shen Yuan arrived and saw the eldest on the floor of the shared room with the other masters, thrashing as his hands were removed and nothing but bloody stumps, and on his forehead and skin began to form black marks like tattoos labelling him as a thief.

Shen Yuan gazed down at him.

“Ah so you planned on stealing Qing Jing Peaks scrolls and run away to a new sect leaving us even more vulnerable than what we are?”

Shen Yuan stepped on the others chest, “this venerable one will allow you to live with the shamet that you would steal from your own people when we are truly in shch a desperate situation the whole world will see you for the thief and coward that you are.”

The man eyes were brimming with tears and hatred.

Hands no longer bleeding as the cultivation kept him from dying for something as sognificant as that.

Shen Yuan crouched down, his own eyes devoid and blank.

“This Master should kill you and be done with it, but our reputation is already sullied enough wkthout others perceiving us as no better than Shen Qingqiu. So I’m going to let you go, and another thing…” Shen Yuan leaned closer tilting his head, “If you simpky asked to leave and take whatever you like from the library as your due payment for years of loyality to Qing Jing Peak this master would gladly let you go and even aided you. But you decided to spit on the kindness that we have bestowed afterall, you like having a room, yes?” Here Shen Yuan glanced at the others. Because they were older and had been part of the peak for years even before Shen Qingqiu, Shen Yuan thought it was fair that they had were goven the room with beds. While he and the disciples slept on the floor. After all it was better to respect the seniors.

The man was whimpering now.

“Now you don’t have this luxary.” He looked at the others “Do you have any complaints?”

The others were shaken up and pale, they would probably flee by morning calling Shen Yuan the devil.

He sniffed and grabbed the limbless man from the floor and kicked him out into the woods.

As the man turned, panting and sweating and his arms shaking still shocked at the lack of limbs blanched to see the entire shack and all jts occupants vanished.

He circled the area for days, and tried to venture in further but couldn’t find it.

The former Qing Jing Peak had vanished.

“Hmm, Shen Qingqius name meant autumn…and mine is more towards spring, then we are a sect of Knowledge but not just any type street smarts- or others is just as good- agh it has to be a good name! Airplanes naming conventions were shit!”

Also the Hallmasters felt hope and more respect for the new master, they couldn’t see a future where they would survive with someone like Shen Yuan but now? Seeing how he handled their ex-hallmaster gave them some relief they needed someone cut throat and cunning but not someone who would aggravate any living person like Shen Qingqiu.

It made them feel more content to stay, all though their new Masters code of conduct to never strike a child even when they have done mistakes was strange. But after what Luo Binghe did, maybe he wanted to be more safe than sorry.

And labelling that hallmaster as a thief had shunned him completely, not one person thought their new master was in the wrong and even kicked and threw fruit at the man shaming him for trying to steal from helpless children!

Even so he knew he was asking for too uch that Luo Binghe would ignore them and pretend they didn’t exist, already he was demanding the other sects to join him and both Tian ti and Zhao Hua had already deviated.

So when his oldest, almost could say she was technically his head disciple, Ling Wei announced an entourage and that their holy emperor was at their door!?

Shen Yuan almost expired.

When he finally moved with haste and saw Luo Binghe and his entourage he gulped.

He was going to handle this with dignity and grace, there was no point in Binghe sparing them just to kill them now. Luo Binghe never believed in wasteful deaths, unless he had a very good reason or that person pissed him off.

Of course Ning Yingying had to break the tense silence before Shen Yuan could even bow to the new Emperor of the three realms!

“A-yuan!” It was like a gunshot, and she ran forward wrapping him up into her hold, Shen Yuan stiffened.

A wife of Binghe’s was hugging him! He was doomed- DOOMED!

“Yingying, let him breathe.” And it somehow became much more worse, as Luo Binghe approached as Ning Yingying finally eased back, Luo Binghe grabbed him and Shen Yuans eyes snapped shut- this was it!

He was dead!

Luo Binghe embraced him, and spoke in his ear “This Lord is pleased to see Shidi doing well.”

_________________________________________________________

And so Luo Binghe decides to treat Shen Yuan kindly, while his Shidi is unaware and sweating bullets. At one point Shen Yuan shows him everything he has and says Binghe can take all of his finances, clothes journels from Qing Jing as tax repayments anything Junshang desires!

Meanwhile Binghe is like what? Meanwhile kinda laughing at how much his Shidi is trying to pay way too much taxes, and Binghe tells him that with how much he has observed of this little sect [and the pitiful shack that it is] how much revenue Shen Yuan has he deduced that he only has to pay so much.

Luo Binghe ends up taking a single coin. Much to Shen Yuans shock, and he thought he would leave it at that until Luo Binghe changes his mind, and as Shen Yuan is not only buidling the sect he is gaining a reputation with his kindness, but is still shrewd and seen as a cold beauty and sharp cunning, people say he's what people wished Shen Qingqiu should be.

No one is surprised-except for Shen Yuan- when Luo Binghe decides make an ultimatum either join his sect or perish, and when the sects begin to apply for seats as his council members, Shen Yuan is shocked that he was offered one too! Ning Yingying is ecstatic.

But Shen Yuan is terrified if he rejects the seat would Binghe be offended so he HAS to take it, but once he's working at the palace he will be forced to rely on his instincts and cunning to survive that vipers nest not ONLY does he have to use the PIDW to survive the plots as an only male character near the protagonist Luo Binghe he is straight up cannon fodder set up to die!

Not knowing that Luo Binghe is trying to court/marry him he takes each invitation as a a death sentence!
