[Lotus Lantern: Yang Jian] If There Is Someone on the Mountain's Ridge

If there is a maiden on the mountain's slope,

She wears dodder vines and ficus leaves.

Her eyes hold a smile, her laughter is fair,

You admire my grace and beauty.

From the War of the Gods until Yang Jian became the God of Justice, the Mountain Spirit watched quietly from the sidelines. When Yang Jian occasionally visited Mount Qi, she would share tea with him and chat for a while, until the battle at Kunlun...

Yang Jian x Mountain Spirit. The Mountain Spirit's characterization draws on Nezha: The Devil Boy's Triumph and the descriptions in The Mountain Spirit from the Nine Songs. She won't be a naive, sugar-sweet heroine.

This follows the plot conventions of Bao Zheng's story. I feel bad for Second Brother, so this should have a happy ending. (But they say a little angst is good for the soul, while too much is bad for your health, so...)

It will also incorporate some elements from Bao Qian, Investiture of the Gods, and the Nine Songs.

I may not know some of the characters very well, but I'll do my best to research them. Please point out any errors and forgive me. I would be very grateful.

This will probably be a very long story, but I'll do my best to finish it. If you've made it this far and are still on board, thank you.
