The first chapter is basicallly the story of Scum Villain as summary from Yue Qingyuan's perspective as he reflects on his actions and reactions to Shen Qingqiu not being himself and coming to terms with his old friend being gone. This was originally meant to be a stand alone one shot, but I couldn't bear not giving Qijiu a happy end, so here you have: Shen Qingqiu comes back due to the system being the system and spawns in on Qiong Ding Peak, heavily startling a certain grieving sect leader.Complete

It will be edited and revised to sound decent, sadly any extras (art, character list, etc.) won't be on here. It also won't have any warnings on any of the chapters! If you want to read the original version, which I update every Thursday at 10pm PST, unless something happens, then just search for "God Complex" or look on my profile.Complete
