Good news: My super adorable editor, Sister Juzi, said I could go premium tomorrow! Applause!
Bad news: Going premium came so suddenly. The author has always lived freely and recklessly, posting chapters as they write them—I have no backlog.

Speaking of why I started writing this story... it was actually because a childhood friend recommended Teacher Jian's fan video to me, "Abnormally Dancing Lepidoptera."
Ah... it was so well made. I recommend everyone watch it.
You could say that all my old and new grudges came rushing up at once.
So I decided to write something, and that was how this novel came to be.
Actually, the original outline and the finished product ended up being completely different. I think everyone can probably tell that, compared with revenge and opposing Tang San, I might have wanted the characters I liked to find redemption more(?)
When Soul Land 2 first began serializing, I had just started middle school. Later, I even bought every issue of Shen Man for its Soul Land 2 comic. The art style was so pretty... (a completely random sentiment)
I really do like Huo Yuhao. I hoped he would not spend his whole life trapped in the shadow of his childhood, nor become a tool in the Sea God's hands.
At first, I wanted to write about a reborn Qiu'er (you), but Wang Qiu'er herself was constrained by the Soul Land framework and couldn't bring about any major changes. So reborn Qiu'er became transmigrated Qiu'er (...), and then my childhood friend said, "Didn't you want to submit to Qidian? It seems male-audience readers don't really like novels with female protagonists." So transmigrated Qiu'er became transmigrated Auspicious Beast, which also counted as an alternative kind of double gender-swap... My childhood friend was at least eighty percent responsible
