* AscendedFanon: The fandom seems to have agreed that Hua Cheng's animal is a fox while Xie Lian is a ferret. Then the official donghua made [[https://twitter.com/cuchallain/status/1340242765284843521/photo/1 artwork]] of the two holding the other's respective animal, a fox and while not really a ferret Xie Lian's is possibly a weasel, much to the delight and surprise of the fandom.
* SugarWiki/AwesomeArt:
** This is a given when you have [=STARember=] as the artist of the ''manhua'', who had already drawn several drop-dead gorgeous fanart of the novel. The entire ''manhua'' is basically a feast for the eyes.
** The ''donghua'' shows that Haoliners is using a simplistic approach in terms of animation. Nevertheless, the animation proves that it perfectly captures the setting of the novel and the looks of the characters.
* BaseBreakingCharacter: Shi Wudu. Either you sympathize with him for [[spoiler: cursing He Xuan to save Shi Qingxuan from a life of misfortune]], or you don't. And that's just the beginning of what could be a long debate.
* BrokenBase: The annoucnement that the LiveActionAdaptation will be directed by the same person who worked on ''The Untamed'' caused a massive divide in the fandom. Half of the fanbase believes that the adaptation will turn out well, censorship or no, and the other half thinks that the adaptation will become a mess in every way because they dislike how ''The Untamed'' made several tweaks with the novel's setting, plot, and characterization of the cast. There's a small third party that's cautious as much as they are curious about how the series will turn out, but believe that it's still too soon to make any judgments without any further information.
* TheChewToy: Poor, poor Guzi. Despite being [[HarmfulToMinors a small child]], the times he appears and ''doesn't'' end up injured, sick, or crying can be counted on one hand.
** On top of that, his dad has been possessed by a ghost that [[TheFriendNoOneLikes even other ghosts hate,]] so not only does Guzi have to witness "his dad" suddenly hanging out with monsters and ''eating human flesh,'' he also has to watch as a bunch of strangers tie up, beat up, and mistreat his only living relative.
** And THEN you find out [[spoiler: Qi Rong actually treated him [[AbusiveParents better]] than his actual dad. And then Qi Rong "dies".]] Good thing he's too young to actually process how crappy his life is.
* EnsembleDarkhorse: The unnamed man that gifted Xie Lian his now iconic bamboo hat in Volume 4. Despite appearing in only one scene, he made as much of an impact on Xie Lian as he did on the readers.
* {{Fanon}}: While Yin Yu is canonically described as having an incredibly plain-looking face, fanworks seem to like depicting him with a BeautyMark, specifically under his left eye.
* FoeYayShipping: Ninety percent of Feng Xin and Mu Qing's interactions involve them arguing with each other or yelling insults at each other. It makes it really is easy for the fans to portray them as a couple with BelligerentSexualTension, and emphasis on the belligerent.
* HarsherInHindsight:
** In Book 3, upon being questioned by Shi Qingxuan, Hua Cheng reveals that his greatest fear is being unable to do anything but watch the one he loves suffer. Then comes Volume 4, which ''will'' make the reader know exactly how Hua Cheng feels.
** Xie Lian's awful cooking that only Hua Cheng can eat without having terrible consequences is something PlayedForLaughs throughout the novel. We later find out that Xie Lian's mother due to being royalty was also lousy at cooking and [[spoiler: that Xie Lian's cooking wasn't always inedible, implying it likely that his current terrible cooking was subconsciously influenced by remembering his mother's style.]]
** The circumstances of Ruoye's birth. Pei Ming in-universe comments on how useful the spiritual device is and wants to forge one for himself, to which Xie Lian privately thinks he wouldn't if he knew how Ruoye was born. [[spoiler: Ruoye is the silk used to bind Xie Lian to the altar while he was stabbed 100 times as well as hanging Xie Lian's parents and Xie Lian when he tried to commit suicide.]]
* IdiosyncraticShipNaming: [=ShuangXuan=] for Shi Qingxuan and [[spoiler: He Xuan]]. That ship has also been dubbed "Beefleaf". It started as an emoji-related mistake. A fan picked a meat emoji to represent [[spoiler: He Xuan disguised as]] [[BigEater Ming Yi]] and a leaf emoji to represent [[BlowYouAway Shi Qingxuan]]. Other fans read it as "beef" and "leaf", and the name stuck.
* LoveToHate: Qi Rong.
* {{Misblamed}}: Pei Ming gets some flak from the Western fandom for supposedly ruining Xuan Ji and making her the way she is. This, even though Pei Su explained the truth -- which reveals that her downfall and transformation into a vengeful ghost is her own doing due to her relentless pursuit of a man who made it clear from that start that he wanted nothing more than a fling with her. Not to mention, it was Xuan Ji who deluded herself into thinking that she is entitled to have Pei Ming all to herself since she sold out her country, which he never manipulated or coerced her into doing, and she even amputated her own legs in a futile attempt to guilt him into marrying her.
* {{Moe}}: For a faceless (even if sentient) piece of cloth, Ruoye still manages to be extremely adorable.
* PortmanteauCoupleName:
** [=HuaLian=] for Hua Cheng and Xie Lian.
** [=FengQing=] for Feng Xin and Mu Qing.
** [=QuanYin=] for Quan Yizhen and Yin Yu.
* TheWoobie: To summarize, it's hard to find anyone who ''isn't'' this trope, but Xie Lian definitely takes the cake.
