Nah, it's just that shishigui dude who starting wrecking Xuan Shi's barrier before the teleport incident. It looks like Liao Zhu's silver portal might've been the thing that actually sent them into the liminal realm.
Could you elaborate? Hanyi's perspective on Zhengui seems barely different than Ling Qi's, and definitely less different than his own would be. I feel like I'm probably missing something?
Hanyi doesn't have the emotional connection of having raised Zhengui since birth, and also doesn't have the social skill to moderate herself when she starts chewing him out for being silly about Xuan Shi. Kid also has huge self-esteem and jealousy issues that color a lot of what she sees and does, and her perspective as she suddenly confronts some repressed stuff about her mom is an interesting change of pace from LQ.
ALL PART OF THE INSIDIOUS PLOT TO NEVER HAVE DARKNESS MONTH OL ORKUS IS ON TO THIS CRIMINAL ENTERPRISE
You could also say that listening to somebody get mad and stomp around because of their helplessness is old ground too.
I'm just a bit confused because you described the benefit in terms of seeing Zhengui from an alternative perspective, and Hanyi's thoughts and insights into his character don't read as offering any fundamentally different understanding from what we typically get from Ling Qi's observation.
Hmm, I don't think we've seen him more than sullen over it, previously? We also haven't seen him lashing out to blame third parties for it, that I can remember. It's certainly a new tier of the behaviour, if that's even what it is.
I don't think Ling Qi has seen Zhengui scared like this, blindly lashing out at everyone around him and not thinking about the situation beyond getting his mom to safety. The only other time I can think of would've been when Ling Qi took that dagger to the clavicle, and we didn't see anything beyond a brief summation.
Fair enough. I'll remain confused, because that doesn't seem like a coherent reason to favor Hanyi's perspective over Zhengui's, but different strokes and all that.
Are these imaged in the corner of her vision from Ling Qi or the Dream?
With this,
I'm getting the feeling that it is actually on purpose that Brother Liao is remaining elusive. That he has been hunting this thing and staying invisible so that the creature can't detect him, or knew this thing was hunting for the group amidst the Liminal Realm and hid from the group so that he could ambush the creature and eliminate it.
It's possible he might need a hand.
Ling Qi, even in her sleep, applied an unconscious hug.
Hmm, I *think* the main danger here to Ling Qi was that she's dreaming in the Liminal?
Well, what you consider a coherent reason and what other people consider a coherent reason can be two very different things, especially when the matter of Zhengui is involved.
Guan Zhi's not there either.
I think it might be her cultivation flaw bleeding here,.because it is a flaw in her way, and therefore in herself
Bian Ya is Green 5 last I recall (it's not outright stated in text, it's more wog)
From what was mentioned on discord by yrs, LQ dreamstepped so hard she flooded her unrelated spine meridians and partially dream converted herself.
Wonder if this happens all the time during war at the third level
This... particular situation probably doesn't occur all that much given that arts used to transport people in between the liminal and material realm do not seem to be common at all.
Yep, that's what I said. Sorry, my wording was awkward.
