Work Text:
It was the second day that Shen Jiu was being held as a property to Qiu Jianlo. As least Qiu Jianlo decided to feed him some rice with pickles before torture him. He even gave Shen Jiu a new set of dark blue robe.
He knew what will happen after he finished the bowl of rice. He ate as slow as he could. Swallowing each small pieces of cool rice and old pickles.
The quality of food was average. Even a servant would not want to have these. But to a lowly slave as Shen Jiu, this was the best meal he had in years.
He bit a pickle. Then suddenly a huge amount of information flood into his mind.
This world was a novel. A cheap kind of plot novel. Had 6666 chapters and full of plot holes. Written by an author with a ridiculous name.
Proud Immortal Demon Way.
Shen Jiu, later known as Shen Qingqiu - The scum villain of the story. A small rock on the way to the powerful life of the protagonist.
Not even an important villain.
Betrayed, hurted, finally died lonely at the Water Prison.
Shen Jiu exhaled, trying to calm himself. Because what the fuck?!
Qiu Jianlo suddenly stepped into the woodshed.
"Little whore, time for work."
He began to pushed Shen Jiu into the ground, prepared to tear Shen Jiu's robe.
According to plot, this was when Qiu Jianlo stole the poor Xiao-Jiu's first time. It was painful and full of blood. Xiao-Jiu would have a fever after that. But he had to continue to work. Then miss Qiu Haitang would notice Xiao-Jiu's pretty face and demanded Xiao-Jiu to become her playmate.
By the way, miss Haitang was a bitch.
Shen Jiu gathered his Qi and punched Qiu Jianlo.
Qiu Jianlo fell into the ground and became unconscious.
Shen Jiu fixed his own robe. Whoever made this robe had terrible taste.
He searched Qiu Jianlo and found some gold and a beautiful bag full of copper coins. Qiu Jianlo sometimes pretended to be a nice master by giving coins for the servants. It was perfect for now.
With his memories of cultivation in the plot (or his last life?), and a full belly, Shen Jiu targeted a pressure point on the older man's neck. He wouldn't wake up in an hour. Even if he was surrounded in fire.
Shen Jiu raised his foot and stomped down as hard as he could to the man's private place.
Qiu Haitang was a bitch. But no female servants deserved to be suffered by this dog when he was in heat.
Shen Jiu climbed through the wall and escaped.
Qi-ge would not come back. He was not stupid enough to stay because of an empty promise.
Cang Qiong? Fuck you. No.
This life Shen Jiu would live for himself.
***
Nine years passed.
Shen Jiu, now living as a rouge cultivator, had a content life.
After leaving Qiu manor, Shen Jiu had a comfortable life thanks to the gold bars. He could focusing on achieving a golden core and succeed at the age of 16.
He accepted many odd jobs. From playing music at the brothels to writing novels for extra cash. He met his jiejies and became their family too. He had helped many of them to pay off their contracts. They decided to open a tea shop. Their tea shop was famous for the beauties and the music. Even the peak Lord of Qing Jing was impressed by the art and the music here.
Shen Anwei visited the tea shop. And Shen Jiu met his baba again.
According to Shen Anwei, two weeks earlier, he suddenly had a Qi devitation. Memories flood his mind.
He immediately rushed to the Qiu manor, only to learned that Qiu Jianlo had been murdered by his own sister, Qiu Haitang. Qiu Haitang became mad. Years of being locked had ruined her body. She could no longer dream about becoming the beautiful cultivater and imperial concubine like in the dreams. Half of her face had been burnt badly and no longer could be recovered.
She gave all the properties away and lived in a shrine now.
Shen Jiu didn't feel happy or relieve when he hear that. Karma. They're no longer in debts.
With the helped of his baba, they managed to rescued Tianlang-jun and Su Xiyan. But unfortunately they could not save the child in Su Xiyan's body.
Shen Jiu didn't want this to happened. But he could not help but felt relief that the protagonist was no longer in this world.
The Old Palace Master was being exposed, and Shen Jiu no longer care what would happen next. His jiejies just gave him some seeds for his garden.
***
There was a hamster ate his tomatoes.
The hamster seemed to be very smart and full of spiritual energy. Shen Jiu decided to keep it as a pet. He made a small bed and sewed tiny clothes for the hamster.
The hamster especially loved melon seeds.
He named it Lingbao.
***
Shen Jiu was staying at the brothel of his friends. They chatted and drank their tea. Shen Jiu braided for the newest girl.
Suddenly the door was kicked.
Surprise. But it was giving de javu.
Liu Qingge stood there with a disdain look.
"I have received news about a cultivatior wandering around in the brothels. Have you have no shame?!"
Shen Jiu finished the braid for the girl, decorated her hair with a butterfly clip.
Then he stood up.
He grabbed a wood fan.
***
Mu Qingfang was horrified to what he had heard.
"Someone had used One Yang Finger Technique, but replaced the finger with a wood fan, and aimed directly at Liu-shidi's anus?"
***
Shen Jiu's twenty one birthday gift was Xiu Ya.
Holding his old friend, Shen Jiu felt complete.
Lingbao was watching this scene on Shen Anwei's shoulder.
***
Didn't want to have any connection to Cang Qiong in this life, but Shen Jiu still came for the An generation ascension ceremony. He wanted to hug his baba one last time before his baba went into heaven.
Dressed in a pale green and pink pastel robe, Shen Jiu met Yue Qingyuan again.
It was not a good reconciliation. Because Shen Jiu had given Yue Qingyuan the middle finger.
Lingbao used it's small hands to touch Shen Jiu's cheek, as a way to comfort him. Shen Jiu kissed the hamster's forehead.
***
Yue Qingyuan and Liu Qingge went to Shen Jiu's small bamboo house, an upgrade of the bamboo house in Qing Jing, with a hot spring and a vegetable garden.
Shen Jiu was sitting on the swing in front of his house. Lingbao was munching the melon seeds. The damm hamster was getting fat.
Liu Qingge unconsciously covered his behind when he recognized Shen Jiu.
"What do you want?"
Shen Jiu did not bother to make tea.
"Xiao-Jiu..."
And Yue Qingyuan finally spilled the truth.
***
Years passed, a group of bandits had been beaten into pulps by the green eyes cultivatior.
Toddler Ming Fan had been rescued and later would be adopted by Shen Jiu.
Shen Jiu met another child on the road. The child had fainted in a bush.
Ming Fan said he was the one who had escaped first and wanted to called for helped. But had collapsed due to exhaustion.
Shen Jiu kept both of them.
The boy's name was Gongyi Xiao.
***
Yue Qingyuan visited daily. He would usually stay for dinner and slept in the same bed with Shen Jiu.
They would cuddle. Snuggled into each other like during their childhood.
Yue Qingyuan adored both of the boys. Xiao-Jiu's child was his child.
The hamster still stayed the same, but had becoming one the boys's guardians.
Things were getting better. And would only getting better in the future.
If not, Shen Jiu would force it to. By his fists.
***
Airplane Shooting Toward The Sky had failed his mission even before the plot began.
He had been kicked out of Shang Qinghua's body and being punished.
He had became a hamster.
Starve and tired. He accidentally chewed off the tomatoes of a mysterious house in the forest. It was fresh and delicious okay?
The owner of the mysterious house was Shen Jiu. His scum villain son.
In the main story, Shen Jiu was never been this freely and peacefully like this.
Shen Jiu stared at him.
"Your spiritual energy is not bad..."
Then Shen Jiu, his beloved son, gave him an evil grin.
"From now on, you will be my pet."
Airplane Shooting Toward The Sky's fate had been decided on this moment.
He would live as the scum villain's pampered pet.
Spoilers: It was not bad after all.
