Chongling is somewhat popular in the Genshin Impact fandom, with a decent amount of supporters and fan works. Despite this, the ship loses in popularity compared to ships such as Xingyun and Taoling, which are also commonly paired together as a friend group involving the four. The majority of Chongling supporters are drawn in by their various differences, seeing them as an opposites attract or fire and ice duo. However, their differences can also be seen as a reason to not pair them together, most notably Chongyun not being fond of Xiangling's cooking. Chongling has over 80 works on AO3.
