Unreliable Narrator
 Tian Ya Ke / int_1869b4b1
comment
Unreliable Narrator: The novel is primarily told from Zhou Zishu's perspective, both his lack of care for wordly matters and constant misreading of Wen Kexing's actions makes the reader double check some chapters. In the audio drama, the reader is spared from this by hearing the tones of the characters, giving a much clearer image for some scenes.

Go Through Me: Multiple instances happen of this with Zhou Zishu protecting Zhang Chengling. Upon Ye Baiyi's supposed ambush, Wen Kexing holds Zhou Zishu and shields him this way. During the finale, Gu Xiang throws herself to protect Wen Kexing from a devastating attack, sacrificing herself. Just when the Scorpians were about to kill Wen Kexing, Zhou Zishu intervened and stood outnumbered, standing in front of Wen Kexing as cover.

 Tian Ya Ke / int_30c40e9a
comment
Deconstructor Fleet: Tian Ya Ke notably avoids most wuxia clichés and play around them. The biggest example of this is that Zhang Chengling is a typical wuxia protagonist who gets into the typical plot of jianghu, all of said plot is ignored in favour of the main couple. The main couple also avoid cliches, where there is rarely any conflict or misunderstanding even when presented the chance.

Surprisingly Realistic Outcome
 Tian Ya Ke / int_3ed23024
comment
Surprisingly Realistic Outcome: Despite being the typical wuxia protagonist, Zhang Chengling doesn't magically become better nor is he just mildly saddened by his sect's death. The novel goes out of its way to highlight Zhang Chengling's numbness, grief and fear, and his frustration and anguish at the adults that don't focus on his well-being. There is also the fact that Zhang Chengling remains mediocre through the novel and only gets one or two instance of badassry. However, after five years, he has martial arts that were good enough to "shake jinghau.

Bittersweet Ending: Although Wen Kexing and Zhou Zishu get their eventual happy ending, the same cannot be said for Cao Weining and Gu Xiang. However, in the third extra, it shows Cao Weining and Gu Xiang reincarnated as destined lovers fiften years later. It's still bittersweet considering that in this lifetime, Gu Xiang is no longer Wen Kexing's family.

Not What It Looks Like: While Zhou Zishu was talking to Gao Xianlian, Wen Kexing proceeded to sneak up behind him and hug Zhou Zishu. Wen Kexing's visible love marks on his arms alongside his dishevelled hair and clothes gave Gao Xianlian the most logical conclusion even if that was far from the case. Once she left though, Zhou Zishu immediately shrugged him off.

Lighter and Softer: Downplayed. Tian Ya Ke isn't family friendly, but it's much more lighter and less serious than it's prequel Qi Ye.

If It's You, It's Okay: Comically inverted. Zhou Zishu doesn't have any issue with being attracted to men, he has an issue it being Wen Kexing.

 Tian Ya Ke / int_d83f3588
comment
Depending on the Artist: There is no unified guide for the novel's characters, and since all of the official artwork is drawn by different artists, there are multiple takes on how the characters look with each drawing.

I Regret Nothing
 Tian Ya Ke / int_e4760ebc
comment
I Regret Nothing: Zhou Zishu doesn't seem to have any remorse over his actins. If anything, any reference to the events of Qi Ye other than reoccuring nightmares, Zhou Zishu is shown to be lamenting over his current state of depression and the loss of Liang Jiuxiao rather than the morality of his actions.

Master of Disguise: Zhou Zishu. For a decent portion of the novel, he wears a fake face to hide his true identity that conceals his facial structure, he managed to escape Tian Chuang through this way.
