This danmei source genre premise forces explicit queer relationship focus across episodes, turning what could be a standard fantasy adventure into a vehicle for foregrounding male-male devotion and physical closeness as the narrative core. Specific plot integration amplifies the intrusion, with relationship trust and intimacy scenes directly tied to key developments such as the Golden Feast revelations and escapes from heaven. Episodes like "A Sad Parting Under Moonlight" center Hua Cheng affirming Xie Lian's innocence through their personal bond, while "May All Taboos be Shattered" highlights the taboo-breaking intensity of the pairing as the emotional engine, sidelining broader story resolution in favor of this ideological emphasis that compromises straightforward entertainment.
