  1. When I first read this chapter I was confused and possible horrified. Then I read the special chapters and realized this isn’t as bad as I originally thought. Now it explains how SQQ’s body was kept so well during these 5 years.

    1. I was truly terrified when I saw the description of their clothes…”as if fallen from BED.” 😰
      I mean I don’t know wtf was happening there but I hope it wasn’t what you said.
      God. The living Qingqiu is enough.

    2. I dont think he’s that crazy! Besides in later chapters we learn that he just gives Shen some spiritual energy only to revive him.

    3. Can’t believe that u people are so quick to judge when basically the only pov we’ve seen in this chapter is only SQQ

    4. just keep reading oml…..you clearly don’t understand lbh’s character if you’re reducing him to an overly obsessed student over his teacher who possibly did that to his dead body…

  3. A lot has happened. Rereading to carve the scenes in my mind…

    Sleeping with a corpse is kinda creepy though, but LBH is too pitiful, it breaks my heart. Thanks for the update.

    1. I think they meant to sleep side by side and not “that” kind of sleep. I mean it is suggestive from how it’s described

  4. Oh wow, so interesting that he’d sleep with the corpse. Luo Binghe – every time I read him in action and despite how powerful he is – strikes me as having had his personal/emotional development truncated at a young age. He very much acts like a 9yr old (not an insult, just an observation). There’s something about the character that unnerves me – I guess this is what other readers mean by calling the ML a yandere!

    1. I think it’s more that he is trying to live in the past, and know doesn’t know how he should act; things keep changing around him, and he doesn’t know if it is his fault. Also, he only appears to have found enjoyment from one thing and for all else he appears to not care, so his actions maybe too abrupt. He also is very emotional and unstable, partly because of the sword and partly because of his tragic past and longing.

  5. I think it’s really poignant that their swords have been repaired & are on display together. That he chose not to heal that scar as a reminder for his failings; there’s self-recrimination every time he looks in the mirror. I’m on the edge of my seat. Thank you!

  6. SQQ’s three world views are not just being overturned, but being exploded??? “That’s MY corpse,” he cries as he plays hot potato with LQG. I’m also still crying about LQG who relentlessly attacks the Tower—- ah wait, wrong novel. I’m also still crying about LQG who relentlessly attacks LBH in order to get SQQ’s body back for burial. Who rescued SQQ at the end?? Was it Airplane? Thanks for the chapter!

  7. Jingle Belle Rocks

    this is hilarious and horrible!

    poor BingBing….his Shizun & everyone else thinks he’s a pervert!

  8. Ok but on the bright side: It would be soooo funny once LBH realise that this Peerless Cucumber fellow is his Shizun all along, hahah.

    Thank you for the translation!

  9. Did… did LBH become a necrophil– ugh!
    If Qingqui sent his spiritual power to Qingge then he should be able to recognize it at least since he helped him before inside the cave…right?

    1. No, he says later in the Resentment of Chunshan extra that he treated the body like it was sacred and never did anything improper during those long, long five years.

  10. OMG. I’m scared. LBH devotion is so Hardcore. It’s creepy, really.
    This chapter is funny, though. The Shizun Hot potato is Just hilarious. But he should have run away while he had the chance. NOW LBH is going to kill him.

    Thanks for the chapter!

  11. Don’t tell me that the spy is Airplane?
    Gosh, this chapter is packed with actions and I just had to reread the sentences twice or thrice to be able to conjure up the image in my brain. I guess I need to watch some traditional Chinese action drama first.

    And thank you for the update… I pray that Sha Hualing doesn’t get beaten anymore by her boss.

    1. Hopefully Hualing will reevaluate her life choices and maybe not be so scummy in the future xD

    2. Yeah… Though I’m still curious what LBH gave to her that made her so happy like it’s the best treat for her.

    3. It’s been revealed. It was the blood. She put sneaked it into Peerless Cucumber’s food.

  12. This chapter is such a rollercoaster of feelings oh my God

    On the other side I was as shocked as Shen Yuan and LQG but tbh I’m sad for LBH but yes like Shen Yuan said he has to get rid off of SQQ’s corpse or else it’ll get worse for his health

    And no Shen Yuan, LBH is not gay, he’s just becoming Shizunsexual :)))

    Uuuu i wonder what will happen next! Thank you so much for the hardwork!

  13. ajdkafn lbh makes things so hard for his poor shizun without even knowing it,,, this miscommunication is so stressful but also sqq should definitely not tell lbh who he is. i get the feeling sqq would have a Very hard time leaving once lbh learns who he is

  14. it’s hilarious but also creepy when you read it here the first time O-O but when you read the extra Deep Dream again.. IT. IS. SO. PAINFUL. T___T Poor Bing He!!!

  15. If it were someone else, do you think I would do this?”
    There u go, Shizun-sexual 😂😂😂

  16. Oh my goodness, the game of hot potato… or “hot cucumber”… with SQQ’s half-naked corpse….!! Normally, I would say that it was horrible and disrespectful to the poor dead person, but the fact that Shizun himself was in on it made it the absurdity of the situation somehow amount to some form of twisted hilarity…
    Binghe is going to have A LOT of explaining to do when this is all cleared up…

    Thank you for the chapter!!! 🙂

  17. I’ve read a couple BL novels where the main character “died” and the blacked male lead preserved their body and kept it with them until they miraculously awakened. Only now do I really realize how creepy that is… Poor Shizun seeing his own corpse being “defiled”…

    1. No, he says later in the Resentment of Chunshan extra that he treated the body like it was sacred and never did anything improper during those long, long five years.

  18. I’m not even surprised.

    I also came across this kind of situation in a (slag) system novel where the MC left the body and ML went crazy to the point that he pretended that MC was still alive and feeding his corpse and taking him everywhere, even talking to him like he was alive.

    Thank you for the chapter!

    MC got rescued?

    1. Yes it’s called “The Strategy of Washing Clean a Slag Shou”, I’m still waiting for that Arc 2 :”)

      (The MC’s actually pretty good and realistic, I recommend you to read it if you haven’t)

    2. Whoa that sounds creepy as heck lbh didn’t go that far..but now I really want to read this ><

  19. OOOOOOh Bordeeeeeeeeeeeeeel!!!! Yes, I’m french and i’m read this novel in english XD
    Buuuuut it’s so… Well… I have no word to explain my feeling TTwTT
    C’est tellement bon putain! Certes, un peu choquant, but I love that.
    SQQ is amazing and very… incredible, and LBG… very kawaïïïï TTwTT
    I laughed a lot in this chapter. The previous one also made me laugh a lot. (SQQ: FUCK HE’S TURN GAYYYYYYY!!! GIVE ME A BREAK PLEASE!) Ahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha! Really funny! We never get bored with this novel and I’m very happy to fall for this chef d’oeuvre! Well… I’m french so I’m really like to read this in french but it’s not possible because that novel was not translate in my birth language TTwTT
    It’s a shame to use google translation to follow this story in its entirety but I have no choice so… hehehe? ^w^’
    But I can Read and it’s wonderful! I have no regrets!
    I love this novel! I love your works! Keep going!
    Thanks to you!

    1. I am from Russia, I also read with Google translator. Because chapters are translated in my native language. But believe me, reading automatic translation from English is better than from Chinese. But I did it, I could not resist …
      Очень люблю эту историю )

  20. I feel SO bad for Sha Hualing, she’s trying her best. 😂

    Soo Binghe was in bed with his Shizun’s corpse. Yep. That won’t look good to anyone.

    Ahh I really like Liu Qingge, it’s a shame that Shen Qingqiu didn’t follow him.

    Thanks for the translation!!!

    1. I feel so sad for LBH. His longing for his Shizun is so great!! And i think the purpose of him lying beside Shizuns body is to give the body spiritual energy to preserve it for as long as it can. So yeah, kinda creepy but quite pitiful for LBH side. So much agony and pain from him. When will he every be happy?! Ahhhhhh!! Im crying rivers here!!

  21. Shizun always cracks me up xD Bing He’s devotion is so… altho he’s a bit insane keeping Shizun’s corpse for 5+ years. I know why they’re without their outer robes so I know that he meant well ;__; but creepy so yeah…

  22. thank you for the chapter. Btw, i’m still don’t understand “ the backlash of the Xin Mo sword came out of the blue and slowed him down by a hair. Just from this missing hair, he could only look on helplessly as Liu Qingge left with Shen Qingqiu’s corpse under his arm“ . What “slowed him down by a hair”? 🤔

  23. Did he actually do unspeakable things with Shen Qingqiu’s body while he’s kissing Shen Qingqiu in the dreamscape?

    Was the black-cloaked figure Liu Qingge’s disciple? I can’t imagine how Luo Binghe is gonna vent his anger later 😂

    Thank you for the chapter! 💕💕

    1. no no he was transferring spiritual energy to sqq’s body to keep it from rotting haha

  24. Thank you for translating! This is a good chapter. And these few latest chapters are so good. Took me by surprise every moment! Thank you!

    LBH, you so need to see a doctor. Your obsession takes on another whole level from before SQQ died. And SQQ, your oblivion is so cute! No wonder LBH couldn’t resist himself. Although, it was stated that LBH didn’t do anything to the body and treated it as something sacred, I bet he worshiped it by touching a little at least! At least cheeks and lips are all in danger! My imagination runs wild at the moment. Lol

  25. ResidentialPsycho

    Please kick Luo Binghe in his “key area”! I really want to see this!

    I’m laughing so hard while reading this chapter! Luo Binghe raised a huge NECROPHILIA flag, shocking the MC, Liu Qinghe, AND all of the followers completely speechless! And then, they tossed around the MC’s half-naked corpse because they didn’t know what to do with it.

    Omg. Cucumber really needs to give his student a spanking and give him a lesson on courtship and manners while he’s at it.

  26. Oh gahd oooh gaaahd he finally knew hahahahaha.. whoaaa who got our beloved SQQ now? D:

    Thanks for the chapter!!~ 🙇🙇🙇🙇🙇🙇🙇🙇🙇

  27. me: eh, he just built a mausoleum for his beloved Shizun, that’s not that bad
    also me: he was sleeping next to the corpse, in just his under-robes, whyyyy

  28. So strange. So strange. So strange. It’s not really that hardcore and I love this novel. But… I’m starting to wish LB and SQQ will never be together. Not because of some meaningful reason. I just want to spite LB. He is so unreasonable, I know, I know, even I love that part about him. But I just keep thinking that if this indeed happened or something similar in real life, the first response was to save SQQ and get him as far away as possible to LB. Get both of them some therapy, imagine a modern day LB keeping and loving his unknowing and unwilling teacher in a freezer. It is stressing me out. I’m torn between my horrible kinks and human integrity.
    Love the chap though. Makes them more realistic, the emotions portrayed is nice. Thank you for translating.

    1. Lol he took care of the body because he was looking for the magic item that would revive him it’s not that weird?!?! Lmao

    2. Just saying, the sleeping with a corpse is not my kink, no matter how well kept the corpse is. Also true, it makes me question life… and my tastes. It’s just, I’m a 3rd party point of view reader. I feel like LB is so weird for sleeping with a corpse for years, no matter how deep the love is. LB isn’t even sure what his Shizun’s reaction will be after being “revived” and realize what LB did, the “what if’s” won’t even enter his mind. What if SQQ doesn’t like it or him, what if he was unwilling, what if SQQ despise him for it. It’s just it’s so… making my heart and head torn apart. My heart says pity for LB but my brain says LB is freaking unreasonable and dark. But the thing is, we all know SQQ will be willing eventually but LB doesn’t, he doesn’t care, it is so twisted. Which I love but feels very weird about, makes me question my morality. Or something.

    3. The thing is, Luo’s primary goal is to transfer the energy to preserve the corpse, until he would be able to revive it. So even if later on Shizun hates him for it, Shizun’s survival is still what he wanted the most. So, I suppose, it’s basically – “as long as my beloved person is alive it’s enough, even if they hate me”.
      But it all really makes you think about life and all and that’s good.

  29. Ye Gods this was a great chapter.
    I was screaming “WTF” the entire time, like a tiny Shizun had found it’s way into my brain.
    Also Binghe, you truly are something else. I swear. wtf

  30. Maravilloso!!Se aclaran los sentimientos de LB y LQ, peleándose por el cadáver de Shizum!.Y Shizum que no resiste no meterse en problemas!!😂😂😂

  31. :O would… LB… really…. necro? :O :O :O

    Geezes just how dark did he go! he sounds worse than the other one who tortured and dismembered the Original SQ!

    1. No, he says later in the Resentment of Chunshan extra that he treated the body like it was sacred and never did anything improper during those long, long five years.

    2. Brave of you to assume Binghe would dare to defile Shizun. 😛

      It would be great to see him explain his necrophillistic reputation to Shizun though!

    3. Heck even SQ implied it… that “sinful” bit was just the topping of a fat cake of innuendo!

  32. This chapter is f**king amazing!
    I’m sorry I underestimate Shizun’s intelligence and wondering (in previous chapter) if he did realize the story already change its genre.
    Binghe part is quite sad, seeing him being bullied (sort of) by both Shen Qingqiu and the loyal cab driver Liu Qingge. As much as I admire his devotion to Shizun, being too devoted was quite scary.
    I’m quite interested in seeing who Shizun’s saviour in the last part. I guess it’d be the medic peak Lord (Mu Qingfang if I’m not mistaken?) But it can’t be he’s still at Binghe place for all these years?
    Or could it be a new character?
    Thanks for the chapter!

  33. This chapter was such a whirlwind of happenings and I’m just sitting here,,,being.
    Binghe really kept Shizun’s body in top notch condition all those years, hoping to be able to bring him back one day. Him speaking his true inner thoughts in the dream world is somehow so sad. He’s just wishing to hold his SQQ again, to be able to see him and tell him that he loves him, i’m hurt. Poor puppy LBH.
    Also, not to always be That™️ liushen enthusiast, but even after all this time LQG still will risk everything to get SQQ back, even if it’s just his corpse. That part when he catches SQQ in his arms and gets sparks and just wants to protect SQQ and cover him since LBH keeps him so indecent — hi i’m sad.
    Calling his old corpse a hot potato got me though ahdjdj we love SQQ potato references.
    SQQ just give your puppy some love, his heart obviously hurts seeing him suffering so much over his shizun. ;;
    Thank you for the amazing translation for this chapter ♥️
