Translation notes:
“…you profess to harbor no feelings and yet there is”
道是无情却有情: This line is from Zhuzhi Ci (the same “Zhuzhi” as Zhuzhi-Lang), which is a poem by Liu Yuxi, a poet of the Tang Dynasty, who based it off a folk song. To put it simply, the poem is about the mixed feelings (bafflement, affection and hope) of a young maiden who was unsure if the gentleman she liked reciprocate her feelings (he was indifferent before) when she heard him singing about his feelings for her from the river; it was after a sunshower, and the sky was clear on the East bank while it was still raining on the West bank, leading our maiden to equate his ambiguous feelings with the equally ambiguous weather.
The word 晴(qíng; clear) is used in the poem to refer to the weather but it also refers to 情(qíng; feelings) given the context of the poem. Tianlang-Jun literally used the word 情 (feelings) here, putting the emphasis on Shen Qingqiu’s feelings, thus referring to someone who says (or acts) like he has no feelings towards someone but he actually does, i.e. Shen Qingqiu with Zhuzhi-Lang (in the end he still cares about him) and Luo Binghe (L-O-V-E).
The original poem:
《竹枝词》
杨柳青青江水平，闻郎江上踏歌声。
东边日出西边雨，道是无晴却有晴。

First off, thank you translators for your hard work! Your eye for detail and faithful devotion to the source material is awe-inspiring and amazing! Thank you so much!
Onwards to my review…
To the ones that are upset about the nature of this chapter– that’s valid. It’s an upsetting situation that is definitely not clear cut, nor gentle.
But are yall forgetting that the very premise of SVSSS is a tongue in cheek satiric jab at the very concept of stallion harem novels?? From the very beginning it was established that Shen Yuan was a person that absolutely hated the clichéd genre of a book he loved. Him transmigrating to the novel to fix the plot is merely him navigating the attached tropes in a very fourth wall breaking manner!
I’m not saying the papapa scene isn’t terrible– but it’s definitely a jab at the whole “papapa is the solution for everything” foundation that is the original novel. Shen Yuan’s disdain for useless sex scenes have been established since the beginning– because it didn’t matter at all. Every new wife was merely a new scenario for gratuitous smut, and had no real impact (no real love). It was just sex. Again, I’m not justifying the very dark route this chapter took, but the fact that Shen Yuan willingly went with the scenario was not only out of the desire to save someone he truly cared about, but it was also a big F U to the papapa premise of the original novel: there was LOVE that meant something, that has impact. Narratively, this action makes sense in poking at how stallion novels are written.
Also, yall are crying about how “unhealthy” the main couple are… was the premise of a disciple falling in love with his adult shizun not the biggest ‘maybe this novel doesn’t have healthy themes’ enough indicator for you? Lol. Also, this story has abuse, gore, and all kinds of very messed up stuff… but it’s the sex that’s the final straw. Why must queer content be “healthy”? Can it just not remain fiction and be anything it can be? Just like any other cishet novel? And before you say, “well, it’s bad gay rep, think of the public”– I want to say that GAY CONTENT DOES NOT NEED TO BE SANITIZED TO BE PALATABLE. If this novel isn’t to your taste? You are welcome to leave and find different stories suited to you. That’s your prerogative. But MXTX is not a best selling author or anything– she’s the equivalent of an indie novelist paid by the dime. We don’t know her, or her backstory. She is merely an author who wants to write– she does not have the power nor influence to be hurting the gays in massive ways (that’s government and homophobic legislation!!).
This novel doesn’t need to be ‘healthy’ to exist. It doesn’t need to constantly showcase x y and z to loudly say what is bad or good (also clearly Shen Yuan knows this situation was a big no, along with Binghe also freaking out and being upset about it!). Be uncomfortable, because that is an extremely uncomfortable scene. But don’t decry the whole novel after coming this far too say it’s unhealthy when the premise itself has always been questionable lol. It’s a story. If you cannot differentiate fictional scenarios from real life morality, I suggest you do not read similar stories. There are other gay content that is written with your preferred themes in mind out there! This one is not one of them, and that’s okay, it is for others.
I hope those idiots who ‘heard somewhere’ that Binghe raped Shen Qingqiu, read this chapter first . Shen Qingqiu gave full consent in complete sense…it was Binghe who could not gave his consent as he was under the sword’s effect at that time . READ THE NOVEL FIRST before spouting nonsense, peeps !! Genuine word of advice.
“Right at this moment, the system prompted: 【Luo Binghe’s Anger Points 300. Multiplying Xin Mo’s factor by 10, the current value is 3000.】
Shen Qingqiu yelled, “Where is the key item? Can’t you bring it out quickly?! Jade Guanyin! Jade pendant! Take it out fast!”
System: 【Hello, the release of the key item is currently loading. It is recommended that you use other tools for the time being.】
Shen Qingqiu, “Loading my━! What other tools are there, show them to me!”
System: 【Friendly Reminder: The Small Scenario Pusher Luxury Edition Package that you have purchased previously is still unused.】
Shen Qingqiu abruptly came to a halt.
Truth be told, he still has yet to figure out what the heck this “Small Scenario Pusher” was and how it worked. But, judging from that one time user experience he had, it appeared to be━quite useful!
Shen Qingqiu gnashed his teeth and said, “……Proceed!”
Show me what this Luxury Edition is made of. Bring it on!
He had just jabbed on the confirm button when the ground gave way beneath him again.
On the way down, Shen Qingqiu only had one thought: what a scam, so much for “pusher”━you damn bulldozer2!
(Warning: Upcoming rough “dual cultivation” aka “papapa” scene)”
EVERYTHING DONE BY THE SYSTEM WAS SO ON THE NOSE…VERY MANIPULATIVE…I DIDN4T LIKE THAT ONE BIT
Oh God, why?! Why is this novel so good in terms of horror and comedy, but the supposedly romantic parts are just a mess? Why does their first time have to be so rapey and brutal? I really thought we’ll get SQQ powerbottoming LBH to his heart’s content. This is ridiculously frustrating.
Honestly, I feel the pain Shen Yuan felt, loving and hating the original book.
Anyway, thanks for translating!
I mean if you’re reading this as a romance, that’s kind of your own fault. This is satirizing romance. Like this chapter is in conversation with the f*ck or die trope where the trope is turned on its head. F*ck or die is uncomfortable circumstances that are “necessary” depicted as good and pleasurable for both parties; mxtx counters that with “necessary” circumstances that are uncomfortable, to the point where neither of them finish. This whole novel has been this kind of satire, why are you surprised?
Won’t anyone comment on how SQQ was straight up wiLLING TO DIE? WITH LBH?? And thought it wouldn’t be so bad?? Specially after avoiding that same fate all throughout the novel… Wow
[He relaxed too early.]
I accedentally lost which part I was reading, and while looking for it, I read this one line. I thought it was a battle scene, and by “relaxed”, I thought it meant “lowered their guard”
Boy was I wrong–
Oh god, that papapa scene was terrible. I can usually handle these borderline/basically *bleep* scenes, but this one was above and beyond for me. Like damn. @.@
Am I the only one who thought “apocalypse sex”?
Yes?
Ok…
Naw, you aint alone, I did too :3
Here my thought. Why SQQ need to suffer even in sex ? T.T
God, this was… Omg it actually hurts because you can see just how broken Luo is, and how much Qingqiu cherishes him that accepts whatever has to come just to make him stop hurting and able to save others as well.
Xin Mo is not the bad guy here it’s the System I’m sure of it. No wonder its called the “scumbag system” lmaoo
I agree, the System is absolutly manipulative. There is absolutly no rule. They change whenever the System want without any scientic or logical reason. No explanation when the rules change and always forcing SQQ to decide without giving warning before. This System is truly evil.
I can understandthat people are fangirling about it but we should accept this is very toxic. Not just this episode couple. even book is toxic.papapa was needless and horrible. even jade arc was become tastless. I really hate that episode so much. I cant believe good auther as MXTX write this
Just because a story has alot of trials and obstacles to overcome it doesn’t mean it’s bad or toxic. You are talking about a cultivation/fantasy novel that deals with demons, curses and trauma…Not every story has to be sweet and wholesome to make it compelling.
It seems that you’re not able to handle fiction and how to not seriously think over a novel. I get it that you’re lacking in literature reading.
Not all stories have to be sweet and healthy. Now scram.
“I don’t like that some fiction has characters and conflicts that might be more complicated than a coffee shop au, so it’s toxic”
How old are you? That might be why.
You dare question mxtx? Lol the guts.
No one questions the queen MXTX the AUDACITY
Y’all are asking how old OP is, but can’t handle a little criticism ? Is MXTX your mom or something ?
Compelling? Sure. Healthy relationship? Nope.
Does it matter if it’s healthy? It’s just a book, and one with demons, chars who have bad history and issues with MC reincarnated into a person who used to abuse the love interest as the cherry on top. Something like this shouldn’t be taken in as the perfect relationship goals from the start anyway.
A great story, and specifically relationships in fiction, don’t have to be wholesome and healthy to be compelling.
1. In mxtx’s defense, this was her first novel and you can see her growth in storytelling and writing with mdzs and tgcf
2. It’s the sad truth that not every relationship can be healthy and that applies to a lot of relationships irl.
This is a reason why I like bingqiu, they embody the more unhealthy but still kinda sweet side love can have unlike hualian who embody pure healthy sweet love.
Honestly I agree with the Original commenter. This is indeed very toxic. What I don’t understand is why the people who claim it isn’t ‘toxic’ is questioning their age and taste. Do you think a younger audience can’t identify what a healthy, normal relationship works? Listen I get that Mxtx novels are greatly written, I really love and follow their works. I have read all of them, but one has to be able to handle criticism and separate the author and the events in the story. The author is great, but this relationship is far from healthy. A character can be flawed, formed by trauma, feel insecure and such as a character (in fact I Love flawed characters). But that does not mean the character’s trauma justify their actions and that their ‘trauma’ can mask their relationship as healthy. Please don’t take it to heart, just because I criticised Mxtx work, doesn’t mean I dislike the author.
I love this novel, it might actually be my favorite mxtx novel. I’m still confused about why there are so many different translations..
Came here to reread, and then saw the comments…
I don’t get the ones comparing BH with LZ and HC when they’re very different.
LZ is from a righteous sect. Too righteous to the point he didn’t stand with WY and ended up with 13 years of regret.
While HC had 800 years to study/understand everything, which probably included papapa that’s why he was the best at it (according to MXTX).
And the biggest difference was that BH didn’t just practice demonic cultivation but is a direct descendant of a powerful demon. He had demonic blood running in his veins. He is very different from the righteous LZ and patient HC.
BH was also under XM’s influence (and QQ gave consent) but when sober he was even willing to bottom so he wouldn’t hurt QQ again.
BH might not be the best ml in the danmei world but QQ stayed with him, chose him. They’re together. That’s what matters.
The point is that BingQiu paved the way for WangXian and HuaLian. Even in MXTX’s writing, that’s why TGCF is so well written compared to the first two.
Anyways, to those who haven’t started the donghua yet, go watch.
SQQ’s internal screaming alone is worth it. lol
I see LBH as a mix of Meng Yao and JC. Meng Yao has the traumatic childhood, never feeling loved/wanted for the right reasons, and would slaughter entire sects for the ones he loves. JC is huge into miscommunication and a big tsundere too. Also willing to let the entire Wen remnant die if it means getting his brother back.
As for SQQ I see him as a mix of LWJ and NHS. SQQ has an NHS mindset and is the reverse: screams on the inside, but not on the outside.
where did mxtx say that hc was best at papapa??
I totally agree! I’ve read her works in backwards order (starting with TGCF), and can definitely see the progression in writing & even differences/depth in the couples.
There’s always a reason why these characters act differently. This book also has a very different tone than her other two – a lot more brutal in certain ways and definitely a more resistant MC to BHs advances.
I must admit that this chapter’s papapa scene was hard to read..does not sound fun at all, it sounded very painful ;-;
… however, there was consent and Shen Qingqiu was doing it for the greater good. He clearly loves Binghe (and wants to do whatever he needs to in order to save him).
Idk I haven’t finished the book yet, I just can’t wait for more happy fluffy scenes later on that make up for the turmoil these guys have gone through ; u ;
(Thanks for translating! And to MXTX for all the stories we get~)
Ahh I agree with you makes lot of sense why tgcf turned out to be the best.
This is my second time rereading this(I binged I in two days) and I still have to say how much I love it! It never fails to make me laugh and every time I think about all the stuff they’ve been though, it never fails to make me want to cry.
I think SQQ is straight, but loves LBH because it’s LBH. I ship SQQ with LQG too, but I don’t think SQQ would develop romantic feelings for him.
All in all, I’m completely in love with all of MXTX’s works. This is my second favourite novel by her, only topped by TGCF.
I’m sad but happy but also sad
Also Reika-san pls add a warning for the rough ‘dual cultivation’ that way people wont complain they had no warning. Please 🙏
Okay, I added a warning. I hope this is enough!
( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
How is this toxic? Just because of their papapa? Come on. LWJ and HC had ‘studied’ for a long time unlike LBH who was wallowed in grief and loneliness. How can he has time to study it? This chapter is explanatory and not toxic. Also, SQQ is in love with LBH before long. His feelings stemmed from being LBH’s fan and continued with Bing-mei… this is truly beautiful. I don’t understand how can this be toxic.
Especially since Xin mo is the only one to blame here
Loved this chapter as well….. BingQue i loved them….. I don’t find this toxic cause SQQ gave consent… He love Binghe and that’s what matters…. Think about it if it was someone else in place of Binghe would he do dual cultivation with them…. Binghe was possessed but SQQ was not he had a choice…. I don’t understand why people are calling this toxic it is just rough sex that’s it…
I think started off as toxic, but gradually gets better. To be fair, there’s a ton of miscommunication, insanity (from Xin Mo and I fully believe LBH has major PTSD from Endless Abyss), and LBH isn’t the only one doing horrible things. Shen Yuan lets LBH take the blame for his “death” and doesn’t come clean to anyone that it was 100% his own idea no coercion. He didn’t really see LBH as an actual person with dynamic thoughts and feelings. LBH does some scary things, but considering he’s been through and what he’s actually doing instead of just us making assumptions it makes sense.
The sex scene is consensual and SQQ finally admits to himself he loves Binghe. He FINALLY realises that LBH is 100% real and with human thoughts and feelings and capable of change just like him.
What I like about these two is that they’re not perfect. A relationship like the one Hua Cheng and Xie Lian have is extremely rare in RL. Bingqiu is closer to reality and a lot of it is focused on healing, forgiveness, and actually figuring out how to communicate. Are they still going to make mistakes? Yes because they have messed up pasts, but they want to improve.
Everyone stop saying this is toxic! I think overall, it is beautiful in a way. I understand that MDZS is better, but this novel is really beautiful as well. I love it
Indeed it is good and come on because of one chapter it became toxic
Ouch.
Ikr. This was absolutely disturbing. Poor SQQ is going to end up with a psychotic and manipulative man child as a husband. This couple is toxic. I came here after reading MDZS expecting that same cuteness between the main leads, but…boy, was I wrong?!😮
I love this novel so much :’) but why there’s only few episodes . Everyone is like they ‘re more prefer mdzs and hob than this ! It hurts !(I’m not comparing. I love mdzs and hob too)But Why most of u guys said that this is toxic ! I think this is just so lovely ! I mean the whole novel ! We can see how binghe loves his shizun ! And Shizun too ! Why can’t u guys see that ? (I’m sorry . I read again and I can’t control my emotion . I just love this novels and each characters so much . so I can’t bear bad cmts about this novel)
Well… I like that pairing but I gotta agree that LBH is kinda manipulative though he probably doesn’t mean to be.
*spoilers*
I know that LBH is aware that he hurt SQQ quite badly, and I know they love eachother, BUT the fact that SQQ STILL had to comfort him the next time really bothers me… Like it should had been the other way around, LBH comforting SQQ. Comforting words and actions from LBH would have been nice. That’s what I feel is missing…
This couple could be something beautiful but LBH needs to grow up mentally
SQQ is so self-sacrificing that it makes me just wanna curl up into a corner nd cry T_T he has also been incredibly realistic so far with his words nd actions. Also, I can’t blv I choked out a laugh in the middle of that painful scene with those super accurate nd hilarious monologs of his X’3 he has great sense of humor too. Getting stuck with this tragic, op, insecure nd crazy obsessed man child really caused him too much pain. I’m lighting a candle in my heart for u SQQ
*screaming “IT HURTS” to the end of the world* how could u do this author DX
Anyway, THERE IT IS!! The scum villain’s “self-saving” system is finally here OMGGG XD
theres a very rational explanation for this scene hear me out
1. sqh based this entire universe on papapa and bingge’s harem was created to keep him in control of xinmo’s influence and sane, THUS why sqq took the executive direction to go at it in this very unsexy setting
2. mxtx wrote the scene as painful and unsettling as possible as a parody of disturbing novels where rape ends up being the way to make a character fall in love with the other (sv as a whole is a parody/satire of stallion novels anyways)
THANK YOU FOR SAYING THIS!!! I WAS READING AND WAS LIKE. You know, it’s realistically painful and he’s using sex as a way to do the things all the other harem ladies did but only with himself – he also CONSENTED. It’s much better than saying he felt immense pleasure … without any lubricant or preparation!
I agree! This scene is not meant to be sexy or romantic. It is “dual cultivation”, SQQ initiated knowing it was the most affective way to draw the dark energy from LBH. They made it clear LBH is basically losing his mind, and he didn’t know that he was hurting SQQ, and SQQ did not stop him or tell him because his main objective was to draw the dark energy out and bring LBH back to reality.
Omg this makes so much sense now. Thank you for explaining!
I am glad that MXTX was being realistic about this, too.
Thanks, i was very disturbed by this scene, now it make sens
Um……. correct me if I’m wrong. But isn’t Bingqiu the final endgame relationship. So uh, this scene happens. And they *do* end up together. Intended parody or not, it’s not subverting much in my eyes in regards to your second point. Sounds about the same as what you described. Am I missing something there? Lol
Ohman ohman ohman this is just too painful……. Both for the heart and for the body. Again, SQQ has nerves of STEEL, even still able to provide readers with humorous narration TAT
IM SO MAD I really wanted their first papapa to be full of sweetness after all that pain and whatnot, and full of mutual desire. No matter how much MC says he’s willing I DONT BELIEVE IT ugh it’s so unfortunate
woah. WOAH. WoAH!
THAT SMEXY SCENE WOOP
AND I JUST LOVE HOW THE AUTHOR IS LIKE “HERE BAM SMEX SCENE! HAH! NOW WATCH THEM DIE TOGETHER AND CRY MWAHAHAHAHA!!!!”
dammit i love you and hate you…
BUT SHIZUNN AND LUO BINGHE BETTER BE SAFE AND HAPPY IN THE END OR IMMA FLIP MYSELF TO SPACE!!!!
I’m not crying.. It’s rain
//sobbing uncontrollably
“Dying together” also meant being “together.”
It did not seem to be all that bad.”
This made me cry
I originally found their papapa to be sad but after reading these insightful comments from my fellow readers I feel it to be even more sad than before. xiexie guys 😭
Can the author write sex scenes that DON’T involve pain? Thanks.
Its meant to be sad and painful bruh
THE PAPAPA WAS HORRIBLE!!!!! GODDAMMIT I JUST WANTED TO SEE SOME STEAMY SMEXY TIMES BUT I WAS CRINGING THE WHOLE TIME
EURGH!!
It wasn’t meant to be smexy it was meant to be sad XD
Hooo boy, I definitely cried while reading this chapter. The description of what the mother did, all while shen is doing the same sacrifice once more. Agh my heart!!
Hoooly shiiit!!! That title drop!!! Self saving system indeed!!!
There’s just something about a title drop that makes me all giddy!!!
Aaah!!! My mind has been blown!!!!
Now I understand all the comments of “RIP Shen Qinqiu’s ass” My poor boy, smh. Hey Binghe!!! *points at lube* (jk I know he was under the influence of Xin Mo)
We are close to the ending y_y.
Thanks for the chapter.
Yes, this scene is very famous among the fandom and source of many memes/fanart.
Tianlang-jun and Zhuzhi-Lang deserved a much better ending. After all that suffering, buaaaaa.
Thanks for the chapter!
Thank you so much for the update!! <3 Just a question out of curiousity;
Other sources name ch80 as 'ppp to save the world' more or less- is that only the name of the censored version [due to a pun lol] or did you intentionally change the ch title?
No, we haven’t changed the title. 关键道具 – This is the title of the edited version. It’s definitely not papapa to save the world.
The old version was papapa to save the world, the title of the revised version is Key Item.
Thank you for the chapter 🥰
Thank you for the updates!! Damn, the first thing I thought after finishing this emotional chapter was: Damn, the system’s such a troll.
GOSH Bingmei :(((( Shizun T___T
Looking forward and excited for the next chapter!! Thank you so much!
Haha sqq walking around looking for lbh not noticing he has just been quietly following behind him
I love that part, hahaha. Of course, our obsessed maiden in love Bing-mei was always following his Shizun like in the song “Mary had a little lamb” looool!
Come on now
We all knew he was gonna cry during the pa pa pa
Thank you for the chapter
Ah! I’m excited for the next chapter!! I really hope that things work out for the two of them.
Thank you for translating!!
Lmao I was not expecting that papapa scene😅🤣🤣aw🥺 poor SQQ and LBH, hopefully everything turns out okay! Thank you for the chapter! 🥰I can’t wait for the final chapter😁😢
✨✨✨✨
Also, what other novels are by this author besides SVSSS?🤔this is an amazing novel and I’d love to read more once it’s finished😁🥰 Any recommendations?✨
There is Heaven’s Official Blessing, but it have only about 22 chapters translater… Sory for my errors i’m not good at English xD
Grandmaster of demonic cultivation (Mo dao zu shi) is finished already and very very good
Can only recommend c:
You can read Heavens Official blessings of scribid. Once you search it you can see a link which will take you to where the translator has translated quite a lot of chapters. Currently on chapter 180! You can also read Mo Dao Zu Shi by the same author as heavens official blessings (Mo xiang tong xiu) on Exiled Rebellion Scanlations (name of website).
Sorry *ON* Scribid. 😅
Also read Thousand Autumns by Meng xi shi. It’s So good and quite similar to some of mo xiang tong xiu’s works
My fave novel from MXTX is still Grandmaster of Demonic Cultivation (Mo Dau Zu Shi). You should give it a try. It’s a really good slow burn love story with a mix of mistery and ghost! 😝
Highly recommended 😁
Mo Dao Zu Shi/Grandmaster of Demonic Cultivation and Heaven’s Official Blessing
Thank you for the chapter!
So is this the end? Novel Updates says chapter 80 is the end and your page… So is it the end? The other chapter coming out in the 5th, is that a extra?
Anyway… Im going to go cry over the “Dying together still means together” quote. Okay cool, thanks bye~~~
The main story ends in chapter 81.
Thank you~~~ ( ´ ∀ ` )
I’m crying a little because at this very tense moment, in poetic words, TLJ called Shizun a tsundere. WELL HE’S NOT WRONG. Ow ow ow the papapa in this chapter made me clench in sympathy that was brutal. I’m impressed that MTX didn’t go the easy way (tho when has she ever) and write something like “unexpectedly it began to feel good even though there was no lube or stretching whatsoever!” I’m glad that Shizun has gotten over his allergy to heartfelt conversations; it was almost too little, too late. Thanks for the chapter!
I just remembered that a new chapter was supposed to be updated yesterday when I was re-reading TGCF!
I was spoiled beforehand (sadly) so I knew what was going to happen, but I was still on the verge of crying when I read this. It must hurt a lot for SQQ, gosh I cringed at those painful descriptions.
And Binghe… God, I love him so much and I feel so bad for him. He really is like a small child. And despite all the things he does, he’s really fragile especially when it comes to SQQ and his parents. It’s a good thing that he’s finally going to get the happiness he deserves after this.
Lastly, f*ck you system. You really did screw with SQQ all this time. This time, you better assist him or I’ll plunge my 5 metre sword through the screen and cut off all your invisible wires and non-existent *bleep*
Thanks for the chapter! 🙂
Bingmei didn’t know what to do.. awww his brothers beat him to it xD oh well he’s the first born so he’s that inexperienced maybe ahahaha.. but anyway.. SQQ T.T gahd that poem is definitely for you..
Thank you very much for the chapter!!~ 🙇🙇🙇🙇
Poor SQQ, this was likely not they way he wanted their first time to go down.
Binghe is the most yandere character I have ever seen! I do hope they get to work things out and have a proper healthy, non-toxic relationship. Fingers crossed!
(Worlds merging? Demons taking over? “This is fine”…)
I dunno does it count as yandere when you are being controlled by a curse? XD nah he is way to soft
He’s really not a yandere. He’s really soft and whipped for SQQ. He seems like a “yandere” because the XinMo sword was controlling him though. Trust me, the relationship is really healthy (WITHOUT XinMo possessing LBH)
I’m really sad for SQQ but really, I just re-read the novel and I can’t help but think, does this mean that LBH has cured SQQ from his poison?
That’s right :O
Wasn’t the requirement for the cure that LBH cum inside SQQ though?
I think it was already cured before, but it wouldn’t have worked, because he needed to munch the flower while doing papapa….
Thank you for the translation. I wasn’t expecting the papapa… The part about LBH mother and the end when he decide that die together means be together makes me really sad.
I’m curious about the system… .
Pfft System you are such a jerk omg
Laaaaaawd have mercy. That was a spicy meat-a-ball.
LBH has some studying to do 😂
Thanks for the great translation ♥️♥️
Oh my goodness, I’m still kind of in shock because THIS FINALLY HAPPENED…. I knew it would, but knowing it and actually reading it are two completely different things, even if I’ve re-read this update about 5 times back-to-back by now…..
Holy crap, that was brutal, even just imagining the pain….. poor SQQ, oh my gosh… it happened so fast it took me a big backpedal and re-read to fully realise….
Seriously, F to pay respects to our poor Cucumber Bro, a real hero….
[ F F F F F F F F F F F F F F F F F ]
Honestly though, I probably cried more than Bing-mei this chapter…… the ending was what got me.
…SQQ was so sweet to his Binghe, even after everything – and poor little (well… big….. *cough*) LBH… I thought my heart would burst for him 🙁
ASDGFHGJKHPETO ERPOTJ BUT THAT REALLY HAPPENED?!?!?! AAAAAAAAAAA IT HAPPENED – – –
– – – Thank you for the update!! *hugs*
That papapa scene was just…*cringes*
How sad. This was supposed to be an intimate bonding moment between two lovers, but it ended up looking like a horrific rape scene.
It was too rushed. No preparation was done and with Luo Binghe’s size, just…ouch!
It’s understanding that it turned out this way given the direness of the situation and lack of experience of both partners. Luo Binghe’s teariness was comical, but I also found it to very sad at the same time. He’s still emotionally fragile. The guilt he’ll feel from hurting Shen Qingqiu will only worsen his mentality.
I know it was meant for comic relief, but I found Binghe’s reaction when he “woke up” so heartbreaking…. the descriptions of afterwards were sweet, yes, but even though it was technically consensual and it’s clear at this point that they really are in love, I totally agree with you that it did feel more like a horrific rape……
SQQ was the one physically suffering. But, he said himself that he knew what would happen, so in a way the emotional and psychological weight of it all would be worse for Luo Binghe…
SQQ at least could come to terms with what would happen, but LBH didn’t even have that…
Now, he realises that, even though it was under the influence of the sword, he hurt the person he loves more than anything.
When Luo Binghe asks Shen Qingqiu “Why didn’t you push me away; why didn’t you kill me?”, it’s especially heartbreaking since we know that SQQ doing so wouldn’t serve to right anything because it was something that he’d resigned himself to in order to save everyone – most of all Binghe – and so pushing him away would not only mean that it would all be for nothing, but actually hurt him more…
Lbh doesn’t consider this their first time so mentally he will be ok in the future..with shizun’ help :’>
What??? there was another time.
Finally the self saving system shows up! I love it when we get the title card in books and movies, it’s like that moment in an anime where the theme song comes on. It always makes me so happy and brings me so much closure.
Same. I love it when someone says the title in movies, too.
A moment of reflection for Shizun’s broken chrysanthemum.😌. May it be able close again some day. 😂
PAPAPA TO SAVE THE WORLD!! Also of COURSE BingMei cried during and afterward…. Poor SQQ. RIP chrysanthemum. I hope the System store stocks Prep H.
“Give him a break! A deflowered Luo Binghe was simply even harder to placate than a deflowered maiden”
Asdfghjklk
Oh boy the feels. I’m happy but also sad, luo binghe wait wait! don’t do it! shizun is not going to die
Thanks for the chapter (´∀`)
OTZ
THAT PAPAPA WAS BRUTAL!!!
And of course crybaby LBH cries during sex, lmao
He’s such a fragile maiden-in-love
Thanks for the chapter! 😘
You said it! Crybaby maiden in love Bing-mei, lol.
Oh my God… imagining the papapa scene as I read it made me feel the horror SQQ felt.. But, because this chapter really shows how much SQQ loves Binghe, it feels quite nice. Anyway I hope Yue Qing Yuan is fine!
And, I think the system’s purpose of sending SQQ to the novel has always been to get him pushed down by Binghe! Hahahahaha. Why else would it take so long just to take out the jade pendant?! Poor Shen Yuan! But in exchange he gets himself a very doting and loving lover~~~ <3
P.s. As always, thank you for the chapters!
*winces* That papapa was horrific. No wonder SQQ cracks jokes at LBH’s sexual prowess. He learns fast though XD
Not that fast when one looks at the extras… ¬.¬
He definitely gets much better lolol
Welp, that’s “Papapa to save the world” out of the way. Let’s see how the scum system will finally live up to it’s name in the title.
I really feel for ZZL and TLJ here. These two have been through so much shit they don’t deserve. As has Binghe’s poor mom for that matter.
“Dying together” also meant being “together.”
It did not seem to be all that bad.
Don’t do this to meeeee
figures that bingmei’s a crybaby in the sheets! rip poor shizun’s chrysanthemum…🙏
tyvm for the translation!!!
I’m here reading this and ask why SQQ need to suffer even in sex TT
Aaah that’s right how could I forget..the only way the original lbh was able to contain xin mo was thru sex, but sqq is taking it a step further basically taking in all that demonic energy that will kill him. But the system can save him right? Can it save binghe too??
Wait??? Are they both going to die??
Well the title is scum villain’s SELF SAVING system, so obviously not o.o
SZL protecting TLJ despite his own damage pulled on my heart strings and TLJ stroking his nephews head made me almost in tears. Like awwwww…..
I don’t know what to feel about the papapa. But as I thought, there must be feelings. Not that the villain and protagonist dont have feelings for each other. But Shizun here is opening his legs for his ‘PLAN’ and this ‘BULLDOZER’ wasn’t technically LBH. Physically it is him but mentally, emotionally and spiritually…NOT. So this really is that famous quote ‘papapa to save the world’.
And WTH LOu Binghe, how can you go into SUICIDE when ur Shizun is still breathing!
And the system’s line ‘Fake Guanyin item loading’ made me laugh so hard. The heck?! Someone’s running for his life here!!!
But seriously,THANKS VERY MANY for this chapter. u guys are the best at translating in both excellence and speed department.Do you still have time for coffee/ sleep/ eat/fangirling/ studies? Please rest as much as you all can.
Love from a malnourished reader.😘
Is Demonic Energy use 魔气 (mó qì)?
This’s the first time, I read this in engslih. I usually read it after being re-translated by WagaihaiNeko.
Thanks a lot for the translation😋.
Oh my heart. It hurts so much. Thank you for the chapter! 🙂
uuuuuh… let’s pray for Shizuns backside… ^^°
And thank you for the update 😀
AGGHHHHHHHH THE HYPE DX
Well I am not fond of rape scenes but technically it’s not rape since he willingly let LB do him. I guess it was necessary to keep him busy in his rampage and draw quickly the demonic energy. Extreme situation require extreme solutions lol Now LB don’t you dare leave your Shizun alone!
Thank you 🙏
Huaaa qwq the self-saving system huh… Thanks for the chapter!
I almost screamed so loud ah! Σ(ﾟДﾟ) Didn’t see the papapa coming i’m so happy~ヽ(ヅ)ノ (but it’s a torture for shizun’s chrysanthemum.. oops|⁰⊖⁰)) About what Peak Lord Shen states about Luo Binghe’s Mom i think it’s so powerful how a mother’s love can be(￣ー￣)ゞ. Zhuzhi lang i hope you live, you’re my fave canon fodder as well as Lui Qingge~ as for Luo Binghe, ┻━┻ ︵ ¯\_༼ᴼل͜ᴼ༽_/¯ ︵ ┻━┻ *sighs dramatically* my big crying pup be gentle to your Shizun! I just hope this two will have a good life together for a lifetime and someday Luo Binghe will get the reassurance that Qingqui is willing to by his side protecc and love him ;-;ヽ(:3ﾉ ヽ)ﾉ I’m so scared reading the updates every single time (‾◡◝ ) _:(´ཀ`」 ∠):_ Translator, I love you thank for translating this novel!(つ◕౪◕)つ━☆ﾟ.*･｡ﾟ
I so called it… several chapters ago I mentioned a comparison to Superman and Lois Lane… if those 2 really did the deed then superman would need a kryptonite condom so it would be possible…
A man who can satisfy 3000 women… would have a libido bigger than SQQs ass could tolerate! JACKHAMMER 9000! Fking hell… rectinol cream needed in copious amounts stat!! gdamn you LB!!
Seriously that was the most damned unsmexy papapa I ever read… it was brutal… it was like something you would not want to see happen in any prono ever… I don’t think LB will be able to do his Shizun again… would you? I mean I’m sure Shizuns ass resembles a placenta right now… Gdammit… now I have birthing images in my head! gah!
I have the most horrified expression right now… THANKS YOU SHITTY SYSTEM AND FK YOU AIRPLANE BRO HO!
Even though there was tenderness in this chapter… it was lost to the JACKHAMMER 9000! fking hell… Every damn time I go by construction sites I will have this damn imagery!
“kryptonite condom” lmao
This is a life or death situation there is no time for that
Sometimes, I wish MXTX would lay off the descriptions of the intestines……… smh. But otherwise I like their heart to heart. Binghe crying… being distraught! So happy to get here finally…
thank you!
That system’s message at the end, haha. So the so called self-saving system is actually the “SYSTEM” after all ? …Lol, I bet SQQ will be even more full of grievances now.
The sex scene was unnecessary and just sounded like a painful experience all together. I had to skip all of that, it was so uncomfortable to read. Why do people think sex between men must always hurt one of them? It wasn’t “hot” at all, it just seemed very wrong. Why does MXTX like writing painful sex scenes, it is so fucking weird 😬 The effect of the jade was diminished by what came before.
Oh my poor Shen suffered too much. And how Luo Binghe pays him trying to kill himself that useless gong. Well, I still love that lap dog.
…wait, are Tianlang-Jun and Zhuzhi-Lang still right next to them??
No, they’re not. SQQ deliberately led LBH away from those two so that wouldn’t receive any more harm.
Oh my….
Oh, SQQ, such character development. Remember at the begining when you were checking out all the pretty “sisters?” Now you are ready to save Binghe through some pretty extreme means. And those “last words….” WAAAAAHHH!
*sniffle*
Thank you so much for the awesome translation and the poetry notes!
Thank you so much for this amazing chapter!!!!!!!!
Thank you for the chapter!
Thanks for the chapter
Didn’t see the papapa coming in this chapter. I was not prepared. Lol! Like really, when everything literally falls apart, and he was being done. I usually hate lovey dovey scenes during battles, but not on this one. What a nice feeling after a very sad chapter. Great work MXTX!
Thanks for translating! Kudos everyone!
Same, lol. I wasn’t expecting that to happen in this chapter. 🙂
Awwww my heart. Thanks for the update!!
Shi.. almost hate LBH cause this chap.. i mean sure, he’s in an unfortunate situation, mad and all.. but SQQ hurts so much that it pains me.. their papapa interaction.. i can even feel the f-in dryness while they do it.. SQQ how pitiful.. (tbh, i just hate lbh cause idk where to channel this hatred)
Finally read it. Loved the chapter. Loved the content too. I like these kind of scene and these kind of situation where one is out of control but too deeply in love and the receiver knows it and though suffers from it but still receives the love and love back all the same.
Thank you for the update. I have been waiting for this update. I kept refreshing the page like every 5 mins since this morning. Happy reading 😊
I love this novel, it might actually be my favorite mxtx novel. I’m still confused about why there are so many different translations..
