Trope was cut/disambiguated due to cleanup

Added DiffLines:

* InconsistentSpelling: Jin gives all his animals English names, but all of these names are changed when pronounced by others (Big D becomes Bi De, Tigger becomes Tigu'er, etc). Curiously, Chunky (Chun Ke) is the only one who seems to be aware of what the original names are.


Added DiffLines:

* LazyAlias: Jin Rou [[SdrawkcabAlias reverses his name]] on official documents (Jin Rou -> Rou Jin) and alters the characters to keep the Cloudy Sword Sect off his trail.

** When Shen Yu and company rescue members of the Shrouded Mountain Sect from death after an ambush by demonic cultivators, the survivors pledge the totality of their sect to aiding Shen Yu in wiping out the demons, both for revenge and because [[AlwaysChaoticEvil Demon Cultivators are bad.]] This draws a wince from some of Shen Yu's party, since they ''just'' got done plunging the Sect into a civil war, unintentionally limiting loyal reinforcements.



** He also ''doesn't notice'' Meiling's attempts at revenge for the mud pit incident, including itching powder, blueskin dye, and coughing candy. [[spoiler:She's eventually successful in getting him with a coffee-like energy drink, with [[InsatiableNewlyweds mixed results]].]]

[[spoiler:She's eventually successful in getting him with a coffee-like energy drink, with [[InsatiableNewlyweds mixed results]].]]]] This is slowly averted as time goes on, as by Volume 4 Jin mentions that he can ''almost'' feel some of the revenge attempts, implying she's been using increasingly powerful attempts.

* GivingRadioToTheRomans: Jin is an {{Isekai}} protagonist from 21st-century Canada, so naturally he has some advanced knowledge compared to the society he finds himself in, but he's clearly a fairly average guy, and aside from some experience with farming, has no in-depth professional knowledge, so this is {{downplayed|Trope}}:

** [[spoiler:The demonic cultivator]] accompanying Zang Zeng's foray into the Azure Hills to work out what really happened to his son surreptitiously stokes his anger and paranoia up so that he does something reckless. However, [[spoiler:with Tianlan's influence eroding the demon's machinations]], Zeng's paranoia instead manifests as him being slow, watchful and cautious, [[spoiler:frustrating his demonic envoy to no end]].



* HairOfGoldHeartOfGold: The Zang family of the Shrouded Mountain Sect are described as having blonde hair and blue eyes, but they normally subvert this trope by being arrogant assholes. Played straight by [[spoiler: the first founder of the Lightning Brigade, Zang Yong, who is a boisterous, chivalrous fighter and protector that fights to protect his loved ones while sharing the same blonde hair as his family line.]]

* IThoughtEveryoneCouldDoThat: Lu Ri doesn't think he's done anything truly impressive by [[spoiler:building a highly efficient spying and information gathering network in three months]], he just taught the wisdom of the Honoured Founders. [[spoiler:Shen Yu]] barely stops himself from breaking into laughter when he learns about it.
--> This boy--he thought what he had done was unimpressive. That it was merely the work of the Founders of the sect, rather than his own skill, not realizing that he had replicated in months what the Founders had taken centuries to refine.

** Zhang Fei, unlike most cultivators in the Azure Hills, believes that Spirit Beasts are commonplace and every cultivating elder can do awesome things. Understandable, considering his first master was the cultivating rooster Bi De, who'd just saved his village from a wolf pack.



** The spirit beasts who awaken on Jin's farm treat everything that happens there with the kind of drama and gravitas that is typical of the xianxia genre. It isn't Jin's farm; it is the Great Sect of Fa Ram, presided over by Great Master Rou Jin. The gate and fence at the front are the Great Pillars of Fa Ram. He's not Big D the rooster, he's [[spoiler:Fa]] Bi De, First Disciple of Fa Ram. They aren't farming, they're doing [[WaxOnWaxOff Profound and Mystical Training]]...and so on. (They're not exactly wrong. Jin thinking it's just a farm isn't accurate either.)
