It was for Wei Ying too that Lan Wangji finally returned to Koi Tower. Two years had passed since the death of the man Lan Wangji loved and the time had come for a meeting of the sects to be called to assess the status of the Wen remnant.

Until then Lan Wangji began teaching the boy himself and in every one of his bright smiles he saw Wei Ying.

Officially Lan Wangji was still the Lan Sect Heir. He knew that the elders were muttering amongst themselves and trying to put pressure on Lan Qiren and Lan Xichen
January 14, 2026 at 6:31 AM
that Lan Wangji would adopt little A-Yuan, giving him the full protection of the Lan name and of Lan Wangji’s status and lineage and the opportunity to, in a few years, go to the Cloud Recesses, to train as a cultivator and find a future free of the taint of the Wen name.

or practicing any sort of cultivation so Lan Wangji had stayed to do what they were forbidden to and made several trips back and forth to Gusu, purchasing supplies and additional food and other things the new settlement might need. After a year it was agreed between them

The Jin wanted the Yin Tiger Tally. “I don’t know what he did with it.” Wen Qing said, “but wherever he hid it I doubt he left it somewhere easy for the Jin to find.”

So the Wen had been relocated and Lan Wangji had gone with them. He had made sure that the Jin kept their word
January 14, 2026 at 6:31 AM
the Wen had carved farmland from the burial mounds and so they accepted their lot with good grace.

In fact, as Wen Qing, told Lan Wangji privately, the relocation had been not only acceptable but necessary. With Wei Wuxian dead it was only a matter of time
January 14, 2026 at 6:31 AM
and Lan Wangji used that moment to jerk free of their hands but rather than attacking Jin Guangyao again he turned away and headed for Yiling.

Two days later when a contingent of Jin came to “investigate” the burial mound settlement they found
January 14, 2026 at 6:31 AM
and the rest of the Wen remnant. That was what Wei Ying wanted. Lan Wangji had failed him in every other way imaginable. He would not fail him in this. That was when Lan Wangji stopped fighting to get to Jin Guangyao. Relieved his brother and uncle relaxed a little
January 14, 2026 at 6:31 AM
for fear that otherwise his vengeful spirit might find a way to repossess his own corpse.

In that moment however all Lan Wangji knew was the roaring in his ears and the shattering pain of his heart and the need to cut down every Jin who stood before him.

mmediately.

No trial.

No sentencing.

No chance to learn any mitigating details.

Just death.

He was gone.

Dead.

Just like that.

Dead.

Lan Wangji did draw Bichen then and it took all of his brother and uncles combined strength to stop him from striking down Jin Guangyao.
January 14, 2026 at 6:31 AM
They found Lan Xichen and Jin Guangyao talking in low urgent voices by the dungeon steps. The two broke off the conversation abruptly when they saw Lan Wangji approaching. That was when they told him.

Wei Ying was dead.

Wei Ying had been executed.
January 14, 2026 at 6:31 AM
while Lan Xichen eased the weight by promising to go on ahead and speak to his sworn brother to make sure that Lan Wangji would have unfettered access to the dungeon. When the hour was up Lan Wangji departed immediately, his uncle following him.
January 14, 2026 at 6:31 AM
He had been such a naïve fool.

Once Wei Ying had been taken from the hall Lan Qiren insisted that Lan Wangji wait an hour for things to get settled before seeking him out. Lan Wangji reluctantly agreed, using the time to put his planned arguments in order
January 14, 2026 at 6:31 AM
and the protection of the Lan Clan with it. In the end Wei Ying’s sentence would likely be similar to that of his mother’s, a certain number of years locked away in seclusion, perhaps even in the very same house, but in this at least Lan Wangji would not be like his father.
January 14, 2026 at 6:31 AM
Either it had been self-defense or it had been an accident, an involuntary lashing out of the dark power that Wei Ying, for some reason, insisted on wielding. Either way, Lan Wangji would visit Wie Ying in his prison before the trial and sentencing
January 14, 2026 at 6:31 AM
Wei Ying had admitted to the killing of Jin Zixuan and he had surrendered himself for it. There was nothing Lan Wangji could do to protect him from some punishment at that point but Lan Wangji had truly believed he would be able to mitigate it.
January 14, 2026 at 6:31 AM
It was his first time in Koi tower since that day, that horrible day which had changed everything. That day when the Jin cultivators had swarmed Wei Ying Lan Wangji had seen one of them raise the pommel of his sword to strike him and he had moved instinctively to protect Wei Ying
January 14, 2026 at 6:31 AM
Lan Wangji strode through the courtyard of Koi tower, fists clenched at his side, every muscle tense. Being there without drawing his blade was taking every bit of self-restraint he had but for Wei Ying he would keep his control.

For Wei Ying…
