HUGE spoiler I found on Twitter. Don't read this if you don't want to be spoiled about MAJOR stuff. YOU HAVE BEEN…
And we will also LWY try to back in time much further. LWY is actually really the doll that JL talks about. She's going to witness what happened to JL before
I want to talk about the RAIN SCENE, I won't go into details but still if you don't want to get spoiled, don't…
Yes, I read that she tried to save him around 26 times. And when she couldn't she kind of also time traveled way back earlier. Remember, the doll that could talk. That's LWY
My theory is that Ji Ling died, Ji Shi appeared and gave Lu Wuyi the opportunity to turn back time and change…
Yes, Ji Ling sacrificed himself to stop the drought. She was able to time travel because a part of JL that consumed the dragon scale gained the ability to time travel.
I think you’re a bit confused about how her identity works.LWY isn’t just a “mix” of other people with…
I don't think the formless moon sect was occupied by JY at that time. She's going to witness JL's backstory. Remember when JL told her that the doll can talk. It's actually her. She time travel back into that time

Look at what she actually does: • she goes back in time again and again to save JL, even though it damages her body • she stays with him as A’Wu, when he was just a young red fox with nothing • she literally cuts off her own tail just to stop him from dying • she keeps choosing him across timelines, not just once • at one point, she even begs to be killed because she knows she’s JY’s vessel and could become dangerous
And in the end, the only way to stop everything was to prevent her birth entirely.
Those aren’t just inherited traits or passive influences. Those are extreme, repeated, self-aware decisions. So yes, she started as a sum of parts. But through everything she chose to do, she became someone distinct. That’s why JL isn’t loving “borrowed pieces”, he’s loving the person who kept choosing him, even at the cost of her own existence.

I get what you’re saying, but I think you’re still overanalyzing the “parts” too much.
Yes, she has influences, but at some point, those influences become her. The story shows that through her choices. She acts, loves, and even suffers on her own, that’s what makes her a person, not just a collection of traits. So for me, she’s already her own person, just with a complex origin.
And I actually agree with you on the second part, it doesn’t have to be a fated link. It works just as well as two souls meeting and choosing each other. The only question isn’t if she’s whole, but whether you accept that she became whole.

I see your point, but I think you’re connecting it a bit too directly.
Liking flowers doesn’t automatically mean she carries DZ’s soul, it can just be a consistent trait, not literal identity.
Also, I feel like JL might already have an idea it was LWY who helped him at his lowest. Since LWY went back in time and was actually the “doll” he called A’Wu, it wouldn’t be surprising if he subconsciously recognized her.
As for ManMan and JL, there could be some thematic link, but it doesn’t necessarily have to be a strict “fated” connection for the story to work.

She gets reborn and reincarnated as a human, and even then, she still likes flowers. That suggests there’s something consistent about her beyond all the external influences, something that carries over no matter the body, memories, or origin. And in that life, she'll like JL too

Then if we’re going to go that deep into what shapes consciousness, you could also look at it from a fantasy perspective, something like fate playing a role, not just DNA or fragments of souls.
Because in the end, it kind of supports that idea too.
But she is a in a time loop, though, not just seeing it. She's living through it. She's trying to save him
• she goes back in time again and again to save JL, even though it damages her body
• she stays with him as A’Wu, when he was just a young red fox with nothing
• she literally cuts off her own tail just to stop him from dying
• she keeps choosing him across timelines, not just once
• at one point, she even begs to be killed because she knows she’s JY’s vessel and could become dangerous

Yes, everything she started with is borrowed. But the way she processes it and the actions she keeps choosing create something new.
Look at what she actually does: (spoilers)
