As the grandmaster who founded the Demonic Sect, Wei WuXian roamed the world in his wanton ways, hated by millions for the chaos he created. In the end, he was back-stabbed by his dearest shidi and killed by powerful clans that combined to overpower him. He incarnates into the body of a lunatic who was abandoned by his clan and is later, unwillingly, taken away by a famous cultivator among the clans—Lan WangJi, his archenemy.

same author for the original novels, both BL ;')
and yeah that's all that can think of that's similar.
Again, as everybody said, the Same author!!
The mc is described as evil (but is really kind and good. Has a grudge)
The 2nd mc/villain is good
What I mean is,
Wei Wuxian = Luo bing he (everyone hates them because they are described as evil. no one really understands their true personality.)
Major similarity: Both are demon kings and everyone (except their partners) is afraid of them!!
Lan Zhan = Shen Qing Qiu (everyone likes them. Just a little difference: Shen Qing Qiu is shown evil at the start, but later when mc reborn as him, he becomes good.) (Lan Zhan is good, everybody knows it.)
Major similarity: Both are sect leaders and highly respected!!
Both are good anime, and there should not be a condition or specific reason why you should not watch/watch one of them. If you'll stick to the plot, you will definitely LOVE them!!
Main point: Both have comedy and BL hints~
both novel was witten by the same author. Chan Shu Zijin Zhinan is also know as SAVE and was her first novel. The second one was the most famous one, you can read the manhua, watch the dongua and the live action, the last one is on netflix.
Trust in this recomendation... you will love it
I recently found out that these two anime are based on novels that are written by the same person and it makes so much sense to me.
Both have similar BL vibes and makes you root for the characters that seem to have the most issues falling in love with one another.
Both focus on cultivation and how you treat others and how they treat you. Specifically on where your background lies from birth.
Different art styles but worth the watch!
Both have same author, also BL with one of them being oblivious for a long time before the couple finally gets together. Both deal with cultivation in Ancient China.
Yan Wushi had walked a path full of blood and corpses. He did not believe in the good nature of humanity. Even more so, he did not believe that there could be someone with great kindness and a sense of justice, who would be so considerate of others without asking anything in return. One day, Shen Qiao, who was the sect leader of Mount Xuandu, the number one Daoist sect under the heavens, was challenged to a duel but somehow fell off the cliff. Yan Wushi happened to pass by down there. Seeing Shen Qiao who was seriously injured to the point of dying, he suddenly came up with a perfect idea… After thousands of autumns, who could stay eternal?

i agree. both are similar. animationwise shanhe jian xin is better but both story are good equally.
Both stories take place in high Eastern fantasy worlds with sect lords, mysteries about ancient artifacts, and hidden identities.
They are also both based on BL novels and use a similar 3D animation style.
Both Chinese animation are drawn in a semi realistic 3D animation stye with bold and vibrant shading and coloring techniques. Both anime settings are in Eastern Chinese fantasy worlds with section leaders, mysteries surrounding ancient artificats, and hidden character identities. Both anime have an emphasis on fighting and martial arts. The background art for both anime are drawn in a realistic setting with vivid details.
Xie Lian is a kind, gentle deity who just can't seem to catch a break. The crown prince of a long-destroyed kingdom, he's endured centuries of plagues, violence, poverty, and multiple demotions that have gotten him kicked out of heaven. Now a god with no followers, he's reduced to collecting scrap in the mortal realm. When his banishment is finally lifted and he is allowed to ascend to heaven for a third time, his rotten luck holds true when his ascension causes the destruction of a heavenly palace; sending the long-suffering immortal right back to the mortal realm to make up for his misdeed by exorcising a malicious ghost. Xie Lian soon meets a mysterious man in red who is clearly more than he seems, and the two grow ever closer as they begin to uncover dark secrets the heavenly realm would have much preferred to keep hidden...

Both are based off a novel by the same author, Mo Xiang Tong Xiu. The name for Scumbag System is The Scum Villian's Self-Saving System, and Heaven Official's Blessing is of the same name.
Teenage boy Lin Fei was unable to practice martial arts due to a defect in his meridians. After witnessing his master and his best friend died in the battle in the Black Abyss, he began to practice an ancient art of artifact refinement. He vowed to avenge them and hunt down the leader of the Black Abyss, even if it cost him his own life. A mysterious power revived him in a new era, and Lin Fei was determined to rebuild his sect and make it flourish.
Return of Gods is not bl like Scumbag system but I do like the chemistry or "friendship" between the MC and the Red Head. Both are set in ancient China and focus on cultivation, both are CG. The MCs are both trying to avoid the worst case scenario and changing the themselves or others. Both have a an interesting sense of humour and you should definitely give it a try.
After transmigrating into a cultivation world setting, he finds that he's not the main character! What sort of scam is this? Battling monsters and leveling up isn't important anymore! Staying alive is the key! So begins the wack life of a cannon fodder NPC trying to get in the good graces of the Protagonist.
