Shen, Qingqiu

沈清秋

Shen Qingqiu serves as the protagonist of The Scum Villain's Self-Saving System. He holds the title of Qing Jing Peak Lord and is a cultivation master.
Original Shen Qingqiu
Shen Jiu, the original inhabitant of the body, possessed a sharp and calculating mind and was not above employing devious tricks. Even as a slave child, he fought using underhanded methods such as poking his opponent's eyes.
He was frequently cold toward others and carried himself with an aloof and elegant demeanor, appearing as though he was hard to ruffle. This impression led Luo Binghe to describe him as an unreachable immortal. Luo also characterized him as bitingly sarcastic.
Post Transmigration
Shen Yuan, who transmigrated into Shen Jiu's body, is a sarcastic, somewhat nerdy millennial. He is a bit spoiled, having been the child of a wealthy family in his previous life, and is more than a little dense.
He maintains a colorful internal dialogue, arguing with the SYSTEM and complaining about his circumstances. This aspect of his personality is particularly evident around Shang Qinghua, as he yells at the author for the ridiculous plot points he wrote, which both of them now have to deal with.
