That scene where HY’s identity is exposed and he takes her to run away? Iconic. She offers to pose as his sister, and when he mocks her, she’s like, Okay then. I’ll be your daughter. I died

Like when he finds out about Yu Ye’s betrayal and declares he’ll take revenge—and even jokes about crippling the guy and dragging him back for HY if she liked him.

I was lowkey disappointed that the 'bad' advices that XY gave HY weren't heeded (which is good in a way, it showed how HY herself was unwilling to choose a short cut method to get back with LC fast and decided to go the long way, the 'righteous' way to solve every issue, be it her sect's or be it LC's) BUT, the author really REALLY spoiled us with different AU and how it would have played out, its sooo fun!

She meets him right after she’s left her sect, when she’s still naive, and full of blind admiration for justice. Her genuine curiosity and lack of ego break through his walls. He lets his guard down because she seems harmless—a sweet girl, no martial skills, being chased by “demons” (which is technically true, lol)

It’s hilarious how he thinks he’s poisoned when he starts feeling things. Shoutout to the poor Ming doctor who suffers through diagnosing their “symptoms, ” only to realize it’s just... lovesickness. Without him, our emotionally clueless leads might’ve taken years to even understand their feelings. (FL is theoretically 'experienced' in every way except that she's never experienced that so she's clueless LOL.)

which has been the only thing ingrained in his bones since he could remember along with a strong hatred towards the demonic practicians, so when the old man does what he does to 'protect' his grandson, LC is broken, he finds himself without a specific path to follow, he cannot be with HY anymore, yet he cannot leave her so he protects her, being s*upid to a fault saying as long as he doesn't see her it's fine, but would radiate his siberian chilly wind towards anyone who tries to get close to her, would be jealous with someone even looking at HY, would be hurt and disappointed when she would tell him she won't like him anymore, would loose his composure even with just their fingers brushing past, ah the yearning.. BUT HE STILL WONT BE TOGETHER *FLIPS TABLE* WDYM WHY R U SO FRUSTRATING LC ?! just kidding, I get it. They make it work. He doesn't force her to his path and neither does she, they figure out a way to accommodate each other, no compromise.

It's so funny that even with the existence of Yu Ye, LC probably considers XY as his biggest rival lmfao, while XY would push all his buttons for fun XD tsk, LC even fought him for trying to touch HY's pregnant belly like bro he gonna be the uncle of those kids (hehe I'm spoiling you with a major plot point)
