Summary
“Mind telling me what this is?” Hua Cheng asked.
Curious, Xie Lian brought a hand to it, and he traced the delicate filigree that ran along the edges of the box. Hua Cheng seemed to think that he knew what it was, but he really couldn’t recall. It wasn’t until his hand laid flat on the lid of the coffer that something suddenly clicked, and it brought a mortifying memory to the surface.
All the blood quickly drained from his face, and he clutched the lid tightly enough to whiten his knuckles, too.
“You already know what this is… don’t you?” he asked meekly.
“I do,” Hua Cheng confirmed. “But I’m curious to know where you found such a thing. Won’t you tell me?”
…
Nestled within the box was that dreadful child-bearing pill that was almost gifted to Hua Cheng a while back.
Xie Lian suffers the consequences (or rather, reaps the rewards) of hanging on to one of Hua Cheng's birthday gifts.

Summary
Hua Cheng has issued a wave of fresh challenges to so many heavenly officials, his rampage may well wipe out the heavens. Ling Wen is sent to ask the calamity what could get him to stay his hand this time, and receives an impossible request - the hand of the Crown Prince of Xianle, long since disappeared from the realms.
Xie Lian was minding his own business six hundred years post-banishment when the bun he salvaged was knocked from his hands into the dirt. Swept up to the heavenly court, he's asked if he is willing to put himself on the line for the sake of peace between heaven and ghost realms.
Faced with a situation neither of them could have expected in their lifetimes, what are a ghost king and twice-banished god to make of their most implausible arrangement?

Summary
Xie Lian immediately thought of a playful smile, dark eye and wild unbound hair. Thought of crimson robes, a ribbon tight around a finger, and an unending patience as he tilted his head and listened and listened.
Just a few days−and how he missed Hua Cheng already. Ever since the other had come to his life, it somehow made everything easier. Nothing in Xie Lian’s routine particularly changed, despite his ascension. Except for missions being added in the mix, his terrible luck and simple ambitions remained.
And yet, somehow, the weight of all of them seemed like such a doable and imaginary thing.
But Hua Cheng had a beloved.
(or: Xie Lian rescues a water spirit, gets advice and a nudge, and gets beyond what he could have imagined.)

Summary
Xie Lian and Hua Cheng have married, the Heavenly Capital has been rebuilt, and the dust from the coup has mostly settled. As Xie Lian enjoys a leisurely exploration of his new cultivation path with his husband, the two of them finally have time to catch up on less pressing curiosities, like the whereabouts of certain acquaintances, the physical differences between ghosts and gods, and what exactly Ghost City apothecaries have to offer alongside their Ghost Scent Candies and child-bearing pills.
