Summary

"…Who are you?"

Shen Yuan paled. Oh no. Did Shen Jiu notice he wasn't the real Shen Ba? Already?! But he hadn't even done anything yet! Panicking, he tried for a smile.

"…Didi? You're hurt. What happened?"

Shen Jiu blanched. Didi? He had always been an only child, as far as he'd known. But… This stranger wore his face, almost exactly.

With a gasp, he sat up. Shaking eyes looked up at the tree above him. That wish earlier… Had it created a brother for Shen Jiu? How?!

Summary

Tim Drake has secured peace for Gotham and all of the Juistria League - by marrying the High Chief of what has been their enemy nation for generations. Now, having left behind everything and everyone he has ever known, his new life in these strange, magical lands begins.

Whatever happens next is uncertain. There are only two things he knows to be true: Having Jason at his side will be a comfort - and he can rely on his husband's kindness when everything else fails him.

But will he be able to navigate these Lands, where common sense just doesn't seem to apply? And will he be able to gain the heart of his husband, or be stuck in a one-sided love for the rest of his life? Can he prove his worth as more than a trophy by Danny's side, not only to Danny but to his council as well? And what are these whispers about civil unrest about?

As Tim is plagued by these questions, his husband Danny also has a few pressing questions he would like the answer to: How did he manage to marry someone as perfect as Tim? Also, does slaying a monster for your pretty husband count as a love declaration? The scales would make a pretty gift fit for the prince. Right?

The Myths and Legends of The Infinite Realms by JoyLess_NightSky

Summary

Even when your deities - the Ancients - live amongst you, rumours tend to get blown out of proportion. In due time, nobody will remember what is only a legend and what is true, but the Children of the Lands whisper their stories all the same.

When your gods don't live amongst you, those rumours and legends is all you have left. If left alone, nobody will even dare to question them anymore.

These are the myths that have remained on the tips of both their tongues.
A work about the myths referred to in The Price Of Peace and its continuations.

Summary

At 15 years old, Shen Yuan got beaten to death to save his didi from the same fate.

Both twins had always used every chance to sacrifice each other for their brother. Unfortunately, neither had ever wanted the other one to do as much. Even more unfortunately, nobody was able to stop Shen Jiu now that his gege wasn't with him anymore. And so the story continued:

At 18 years old, Shen Jiu found a ritual he knew he should not attempt but hid in his sleeve anyways.

At 29 years old, Shen Yuan opened his eyes in the body of Shen Jiu.

There Is Something Wrong With Shen Qingqiu by JoyLess_NightSky

Summary

Shen Qingqiu is not gone at all.

He is very obviously still here, even if everyone is in agreement that something strange is going on with him. But he has the same habits, almost the same haughty attitude and he takes care of his peak. Something changed for him, and he doesn't tell anyone what it is.

Still, that's him. He is here and doesn't hurt anyone right now. So it's probably fine. Right?

Right. Best to just leave it alone. Shen Qingqiu hates when anyone tries to pry into his business, after all. And nobody wants to be the victim of an angry Shen Qingqiu.

Or:

Shen Jiu left his older twin brother Shen Yuan behind at the sect. Shen Yuan decides it would be fun not to tell people he's peak-sitting for his brother and instead pretend to be him. He knows his didi very well, so obviously nobody would be able to tell!

And while he's here, he might as well do some things to make his didi's job easier, right?

Questionable advice on cultivator taming by J_BlackDragon

Summary

Shen Yuan finds himself in the discipleship days of future peak lords and enrolls in the peak of monster taming. During one of his night hunts he accidentally crosses paths with Shen Jiu, who later becomes a disciple of the same sect, earning the nickname 'Beast' for his 'wonderful' personality. Yuan, however, approaching interactions with people as if they were monster taming, perceives him as a beaten, wet, sad cat (a bit saber-toothed and venomous, but...) and treats him like a wounded animal, completely unaware that he's encountering the future main villain.

Summary

Shen Qingqiu rolled his eyes. His vision swam, spinning in a rush of bright colors and hazy shapes. He started to tip backwards, no longer certain where the floor was. A laugh bubbled out of his chest as his weight slipped further and his stomach swooped. Liu Qingge jolted, hands wrapping around Shen Qingqiu's waist. They were so warm. The heat seeped through his robes in a way that made Shen Qingqiu shiver.
"Shen Qing—"
Shen Qingqiu whipped his hands up to cover Liu Qingge's mouth. "Shhhhhh. Thats not right. You're supposed to say shixiong, ok? Shixiong."
-or-
Newly named Qing Jing Peak successor Shen Qingqiu drinks something he thinks is plain juice at a party. It was not in fact juice. But what does it matter when he’s having the best night of his life? Especially when he can make it all of his martial siblings’ problem.

Summary

“I’m Shen Yuan,” he said, because it felt rude not to offer something in return. He tipped his head toward the back table. “And that’s Shen Tang.”

“Charmed,” Shen Jiu drawled.

He did not sound so. He sounded like he had found a new category of nuisance and was deciding whether to file Shen Yuan under it permanently.

“Are you always this welcoming to new customers?”

“Only the ones I suspect of being stalking, controlling weirdos.”

“Good to know I’m special.”

Shen Jiu’s mouth twitched.
or

Shen Yuan’s romcom adventure begins with sibling blackmail, tea he did not ask for, and crochet he definitely did not agree to. It might have stayed that way, too, if not for a certain prickly, unfairly cute teahouse owner who kept giving him reasons to come back.

Your Friendly Neighborhood Incubus by Prudabaga

Summary

It took Shen Yuan a full week to realize he'd transmigrated into PIDW.

In his defense, he'd woken up to a sky filled with blood rain, raging walls of hellfire, and a shadowy thing trying to take a bite out of his leg. He'd had to hit the ground running (literally, because that shadow thing had been hungry and fast) and hadn't had much time to take in his surroundings.

Luckily he was fast in this life. His strange new set of goat-like legs seemed to help with that.

In which Shen Yuan transmigrates as an incubus, and everyone realizes it but him.
