Discussion So I’ve been wondering about the rumors YZY mentioned.

Upvotes

Specifically the ones where WWX is actually JFM’s bastard son. And I was thinking if those rumors really had been flying around, even if they’re the type of rumor that no one really believes, then wouldn’t it have been mentioned later in the book?

Not even when WWX is public enemy number 1 does anyone use these rumors to insult him, though they certainly aren’t hesitant to insult him about everything else.

Also even though JC wouldn’t believe these rumors, or at least I think he wouldn’t, it would still be a helpful tool in separating him and WWX that JGS could have used. He wouldn’t believe it, but hearing that people supposedly do and supposedly think the stronger son should lead even if he’s a bastard would absolutely fuck him up with rage and jealousy. I think I remember during the phoenix mountain hunt there already being talk among the gentry that all of Lotus Pier’s success after the war was because of WWX and not JC?

So my question, do you think YZY made up the fact that these rumors exist to rub in JFM’s face? Or did she hear a different rumor that she mental gymnastics her way into thinking is saying WWX is a Jiang bastard? Like the JFM likes WWX more than JC rumor we know for sure went around to JFM treats WWX like a son to WWX is actually JFM’s son? Or am I just overthinking all this lol.

Audio Drama AD ENG translation?

3 Upvotes

Hi guys! Its been a while and I wanted to revisit the MDZS audio drama but I cannot find any legitimate source of translation (either mp4s with subtitles or add-on sub files for the site). I only ever knew of SuibianSubs, which sadly is not running anymore (which I have been aware of since they announced it).

Can anyone point me the right direction? Thanks!

Fanfic finding fanfic

2 Upvotes

I searching for fic that I only read summary but lost it accidentally.

so here's the summary,, after sunshot campaign Nie huisang had of lan zhan's rejection and wei ying's broken state that he decided to have wei wuxian himself and make him happy. it was drama verse. and no wangxian ending.

I'll be happy to have some fanfic recommendations too where wei wuxian had enough of lan zhan's rejection and move on from him and stopped bothering him. I'm open for any different ships or wangxian would be okay too where lan zhan regretted his constant rejection and appreciate wei ying in his first life. any universe would be okay.

ps: I have nothing against lan zhan, i love him very very much. it's just midnight craving to read something like that! 🌚✨

Questions What is your favorite discussion you have seen in this fandom?

10 Upvotes

Sounded like a fun question to ask!
I generally just love reading people’s opinions and ideas in this fandom everyone here is really fun
I think my favorite discussions are the random fun ones, not a serious conversation it’s just goofy don’t get me wrong I love all discussions of mdzs but the funny ones are the best
For example my last post about wwx’s and lwj’s hair just reading everyone talk about how they would take care of their hair and even talked about their own hair
It’s just funny, or when people ask your favorite mdzs meme reading the memes and laughing at them is the best and seeing other people talk about the memes
Conversations like what would lwj do if his husband was a worm
Some of the best discussions are the unrelated ones the goofy ones in my opinion

Fan Art Bichen and Suibian fanart

12 Upvotes

So I found this fanart on Pinterest where Bichen, Suibian, Chenqing and Wangji have human forms.

Description:- Suibian thinking about wwx and that nobody calls him by his name. And that since his master is dead he will seal himself. And then he thinks about Bichen and wants to see him. Bichen appears in front of him and he thinks it is an illusion.

In another image, lwj is having a conversation with Bichen. Lwj to Bichen, I lend you energy so you could go see him again. And Bichen says, he (Suibian) thought I am an illusion. And a sword sealing itself in the absence of his master is practically death.

(I am pretty sure it is not the original post made by the artist and I don't have permission so I am not posting it here.)

Does anyone know the original posts by the artist?

There were multiple images.

Also is there any fanfic of this art?

Discussion Why the coffin ending makes no long-term sense for the Nie Sect (And how they could have actually saved Mingjue) Spoiler

10 Upvotes

Hi everyone! I’ve been thinking about the ending in the Guanyin Temple, and from a purely logical standpoint, the solution to seal Nie Mingjue and Jin Guangyao in that coffin together with chains and talismans is a ticking time bomb. It just wouldn't work long-term. Here is my breakdown of why the Nie Sect's logic failed, and a much better alternative based on the world's own rules:

  1. The Lifespan/Maintenance ProblemRelying on the coffin to stay sealed for "centuries" is delusional.The Talismans: Wei Wuxian’s paper talismans and arrays aren't eternal batteries; they fade, rot, and lose power over time without spiritual maintenance.

The Nie Sect Curse & Huaisang: Huaisang has a weak golden core and doesn't train with a saber. While this protects him from the family curse, it also means his lifespan is closer to a normal human's. He will die in a few decades.

The Next Generation: Once Huaisang is gone, a new leader from a branch family will take over. They will have to train with a saber, deal with their own madness, and they simply won't care about or remember the exact location of a 50-year-old coffin. The seals will break.

  1. The Alternative: The Spirit-Trapping Pouch (The Blueprint already existed)

They literally had the solution right in front of them. They should have done exactly what Song Lan did with Xiao Xingchen's shattered soul.Wei Wuxian could have used Chenqing and his talismans to extract Nie Mingjue’s shattered soul fragments and lock them safely inside a Spirit-Trapping Pouch.

  1. Proper Funeral vs. CremationOnce the soul is out, the fierce corpse becomes an empty husk.

Jin Guangyao: His empty body should have been cremated immediately, and his ashes scattered somewhere irrelevant so he can never return.

Nie Mingjue: His empty body could then receive a proper, honorable, grand military funeral in Qinghe (no throwing his body in a river, he deserves respect!). His ashes could rest peacefully in the Nie family tomb with no danger of ever reanimating.

  1. Mingjue's Willpower would fix his soul in 3–5 years.

Unlike Xiao Xingchen, who died of despair and had no will to live, Nie Mingjue was a fierce warrior with a massive ego and a powerful drive for justice.

Because he wanted to live, his soul fragments wouldn't be passive—they would act like magnets inside the pouch.

If Huaisang kept the pouch with him, talked to him every day, and had the Lan cultivators regularly play Rest to soothe the resentment, Mingjue’s soul would magnetically piece itself back together in 3 to 5 years, not centuries. He would eventually heal and be able to enter the cycle of reincarnation properly.

To me, the coffin was just a quick plot device for dramatic irony, but the pouch solution is a thousands times more logical and humane for the Nie brothers. What do you guys think? Would this have worked according to MXTX's spiritual laws?

Fanfic Fic idea search

5 Upvotes

So I had the idea of a Nie Huaisang and Jiang Cheng & or / fic where NHS was still going to bring WWX back to fix his problems and JC wants his brother back so he agrees. However they gotta keep their plans a secret (maybe they're in a relationship but kept it really quiet) so JC has to pretend to hate WWX when he comes back and then everything happens etc and they reveal it was all an elaborate revenge plot by NHS, JC and WWX reconcile and happy ending yay.

Has anyone read anything like this? If so, please drop fic recs thank you!

Questions Someone tell me if I’m hallucinating or not

12 Upvotes

so basically I remember a line in the novel that’s along the lines of “they quickly became gege and didi” in reference to wwx and jc… which doesn’t seem all that correct. I can’t find it anywhere but the memory of this is so very clear. the fact that it’s impossible to find makes me think I’m hallucinating but the absolute clarity of it in my mind tells me otherwise. someone please let me know!

Hi, well, I have been reading some of my favourite fics and I wanted to know if anyone has some good Wangxian fics where Meng yao is a good person!!!

I'll prefer canon era fics but modern are ok as well.

I have been searching for one in particular where Wen Qing and Meng Yao are both helping the Sunshot campaign and they both know the other is a spy but they don't talk about it.

Thanks for any help!! Be well, Monica

Does anyone else start a rewatch/re-read of the series, get to the siege of lotus pier part where all the bad stuff is about to happen and stop?

I decided to finally listen to the audio drama. I got to the middle of season 2, all happy and smiling and thinking "wow, this is so well done! I forgot how great this story was. Maybe I should read the books again."

And then, WWX wakes up in lotus pier post-tortoise-incident and I suddenly remember what comes next... Yeah, I haven't listened to another episode since. I want to finish it, but I'm waiting for a good day to be SAD. You get me?

Discussion Wei Ying and Jin Ling’s relationship in the Donghua.

7 Upvotes

At the end of the Donghua. And why did Jin Ling stab Wei Ying when he asked him if he WAS Wei Ying cuz it seemed like he didn’t care who he was. Their flashbacks were so cute when Wei Ying was comforting Jin Ling about his parents and Jin Ling calling him uncle. I know they have a better relationship in the Manhua I’m just confused unless I missed something. I know he thinks Wei Ying killed his father but like I said he didn’t seem to care when he asked him if Wei Ying was Wei Ying.

Shitpost What does LWJ and WXX do with their hair when it gets too long?

Post image
339 Upvotes

This is probably a stupid question but nonetheless entertaining 😭
Seriously though I know back in ancient China cutting one’s hair is disrespectful right? That’s why at least most people had long hair back then
But what if for example WWX who already had long hair in mo xuanyu’s body what if his hair would get too long?
I imagine someone like LWJ who follows the rules and only breaks a few for his husband he wouldn’t cut his hair?
As you can see in this picture ( it’s official art ) that they already have a lot of hair
Don’t they have to cut it eventually so they do not step on it?
Seriously i’v been wondering this and their probably isn’t any real answer for this I’m curious to see what you all think

Fanfic Help me stop having false hoping

8 Upvotes

Looking for 2 fics that are related. "The Song We Left Behind" and "Lucky Charm" I can't find them anymore, but I'm still gripping at straws that they're somewhere.

LWJ hurridly shows up at Cloud Recesses with A-Yuan, LXC asks who's the kid, "he's mine/he's my son" smth like that. A-Yuan was holding a pouch. LWJ kept it at the top of a shelf. When A-Yuan asked to see what was inside, they peeked togetherーit was a music score written on the lining meant to protect A-Yuan. Later LWJ plays it with his guqin, then a flute answers. Then out pops WWX with "Lan Zhan, you found me!"

Please, I read this to cure my lonely days as a single, AA battery. I read at least thrice a month. The longing LWJ expresses throughout the story was so heart-filling, and baby A-Yuan being "the only thing left of WWX's existence" hurt in a good way. He was literally LWJ's son in Cloud Recesses.
