*Post-cannon, Xianle trio walking down the Heavenly Avenue after a big meeting.*
Mu Qing: *casually straightens Feng Xin’s guan and brushes a leaf off of Xie Lian.*
Random Official: Lmao, look at the sweeping general.
Xie Lian: I’m a crown prince, not a general actually, but I’m glad the heavens have started recognizing my sweeping skills! ^u^
Mu Qing: Stop it, Xie Lian, you know they’re talking about me.
Hua Cheng: *walking out of the bushes, here to pick up his husband from work.* How DARE you imply that your sweeping skills are better than his highness’. I bet you don’t even know how to use a dustpan, you worthless cur.
Feng Xin: Woah, Mu Qing may be bad at many things, like being chill or acting like a normal person, but he could wipe the FLOOR with Xie Lian
Mu Qing: *holding a broom in the middle of an arena, the bleachers shaking with the cheers of half of the heavens and most of ghost city.* WHY ARE WE DOING THIS
Xie Lian: *wielding a broom on the other end of the arena, determined* The martial pavilion only has room for one sweeping champion, Mu Qing. Prepare for defeat.
Mu Qing: *baffled, embarrassed, angry, but not enough to willingly LOSE at something.*
Hua Cheng: KICK HIS ASS, GEGE!!! YEAAAAHHHH!!
Feng Xin: *eating peanuts* This is the best thing to ever happen to me.
*one intense sweeping battle later*
Xie Lian: *being tossed in the air by the cheering mob of ghost city.*
Ghost City: THREE CHEERS FOR THE STRONGEST MARTIAL GOD IN THE HEAVENS, OUR GRANDUNCLE, THE CROWN PRINCE OF SWEEPING!
The Heavens: *confused why a skill associated with being a servant is now desirable, but somehow got caught up in all the fanfare and are losing their minds over the epic underdog victory saga*
Mu Qing: *slumping to the ground.* How… How did he defeat me? He was just a blur of light- and then the floor- the DIRT floor… it’s spotless. ._.
Feng Xin: Uh. I’m sorry you lost your… title? *pats on the shoulder*
Xie Lian: *in communication array* Thanks for helping me get rid of Mu Qing’s bullies, San Lang <3 ^u^
Hua Cheng: Anything for you, Gege <3
