Lan Zhan stayed inside his room for days without food and water. He's just playing inquiry even if his fingers bleed. He's not going to stop unless he saw Wei Ying again. He keeps on asking and asking where is Wei Ying but no ghost know where he is. Every time he failed, his heart is being torn apart.

"Wei Ying... Just a spec of your soul is enough..." Lan Zhan muttered and hold his temples. A tear fall from his eyes. He was holding on but how long can he hold on?

"Wangji..." Lan Zhan wiped his tears and face his brother who is looking at him sadly. He sat in front of him and hold his hand. "Wangji... Take a rest for while."

"Xiongzhang, I need to go," Lan Zhan said. Maybe Wei Ying is not here so he needs to look for him in any place where he can think of. The Xuanwu Cave, Burial Mounds, Yilling, Nightless City or in Yunmeng! Anywhere as long as he can see him again. But Lan Xichen will not let his brother go. Not with his condition.

"Wangji, Wei gongzi... is gone now." Lan Zhan shook his head.

"No, Wei Ying is..." Lan Xichen hugged his brother tigthly. Lan Zhan eyes widened and tears started to flow. With that hug he cried. It's the second time he did. The first time was their mother's death, now it was Wei Ying's. After a few minutes, Lan Zhan pulled from the hug and looked at his brother sadly. Lan Xichen's heart was in shambles. Seeing this brother of him like this, he knows that it will be hard to make him go back the way he was.

"Wangji, please... Take care of yourself! You're not eating nor drinking! Are you trying to kill yourself? It's been a week already!" Lan Zhan looked down. He understand his brother's conern but right now, he can't even think of eating.

"I am fine, Xiongzhang. I just don't have an appetite," Lan Zhan said and looked down. Lan Xichen sighed and nodded. Lan Qiren was also concerned about his nephew. He admit that he also judge Wei Ying as someone who just choose heretic path and an unruly kid who just know how to get himself in trouble but Wei Ying grew up into someone who is selfless. Who think about other first before himself. Also, he wished that Lan Zhan was right. That Wei Ying is alive, despite the things he did, he only wanted to protect those people he care about. If they put themselves to his shoes, they already give up after a months but Wei ying endure it for two years.

"Wangji, I hope you come with me with the conference." Lan Zhan looked at his brother and sighed deeply. He didn't answer because he knows to himself that he is not yet ready to face other people. Much more the one who cause everything, Jiang Wanyin. He shouldn't bear grudge for it's in their wall of disciple but he can't. He was a human being who is capable to hate a person. He is not a saint, he is not someone who can forget everything like Wei Ying. Wei Ying doesn't deserve what happened to him, he deserve the world. The love, care and happiness. But that stop because of the world turned it's back to Wei ying who gave his everything for them.

"I'll think about it," Lan Zhan said but he's determined not to come. Not seeing them will make him a little at peace. Lan Xichen saw indifference face of Lan Zhan. He understand that Lan Zhan will not come. He sighed and pat his brother's shoulders.

"Okay. I understand. But please get some sleep and eat. Wei gongzi won't like to see you wreck yourself like this... Please..." Lan Xichen pleaded. Lan Zhan just nodded but his face says otherwise. Lan Xichen sighed and walked out the room. He knows Wei Ying will not come back. When he fall from the cliff, Jiang Wanyin looked for Wei Ying's body but failed to retrieved because when they arrived at the foot of the cliff, there is nothing. No body, not even a spec of his soul remained. The only thing was there was Wei Ying's spiritual flute, Chenqing. Jiang Yanli mourned for a long time. When she found out that Jiang Cheng didn't helped Wei Ying, she was furious and didn't talked with Jiang Cheng until now.

Lan Xichen went to his Hanshi and saw the young Sect Leader who is sitting at the stairs of his Hanshi. Lan Xichen sighed and walked towards him. The young Sect Leader raised his head and face the older Twin Jade. Lan Xichen gave him a small smile.

"Ah Cheng..." Lan Xichen called. When the Sunshot campaign starts, Lan Xichen and Jiang Cheng developed feelings with each other. The older Twin Jade already has feelings for the young master of Yunmeng Jiang when he was still studying. And Jiang Cheng also admire the older twin jade when he was young. Now, Lan Xichen became Jiang Cheng confidant and lover. Lan Xichen welcomed Jiang Cheng with a hug. He knows hat Jiang cheng went to his sister but still the Young Madam Jin still refused to see his brother.

"She hated me, I know. Even I hate myself," Jiang Cheng said and hugged Lan Xichen tightly. The older twin jade sighed and caress his lover's head with a kiss on the forehead.

"It's going to be okay, Ah Cheng. Your sister will talk to you again. It might be hard right now, but always remember that she still loves you," Lan Xichen said reminding him that his sister is just hurting right now. Jiang Cheng buried his face to Lan Xichen's face.

"I am such a moron, I should've investigated first before I..." Lan Xichen patted his back.

"We had our mistakes, Ah Cheng. You're not the only one who did bad to Wei gongzi, even I is no exception," Lan Xichen said sadly. Jiang Cheng just sighed and shakes his head.

"I don't know what to do anymore," Jiang Cheng said. Lan Xichen again hugged him tightly.

"Ah Cheng, just... take care of yourself okay?"

"Yes."




"Ah Ying! Come! Let's go to grandma!" Wei Fan said with a smile on her face. She hold Wei Ying's hand and pulled him away. Wei Ying actually was surprised to know this child's name. He has the same name as this child literally same. Wei Ying! So is the father and mother other than the older sister, Wei Fan. Wei Fan is 11 years old and already a young disciple of Baoshan Tulong Sect. The grandmother she's talking about was the Wei Ying's martial grandmother, Baoshan Sanren.

"Okay, Jie!" Wei Ying said. This child's body is six years old and died due to the injury. Well, the body didn't die but the soul is and moved on. When they reached the Dawn Room, Baoshan Sanren greeted the two children. They saluted to her before coming to her side.

"Why are you two here?" Baoshan Sanren asked gently. She patted the children's head. Wei Ying's heart was filled with warmth. But there is also a little pain in his heart. He envy the child because these people loves him and he felt guilty for getting the attention and love that they give.

"Ah Ying?" Wei Ying came back from his trance and looked at the two women looking at him confused. Wei Ying smiled and hugged the older woman's arms.

"Grandma, Ah Ying missed you," Wei Ying said. Baoshan Sanren smiled and pat's Wei Ying's head.

"Me too, I miss our Ah Ying! You've been away from us for a long time. It's okay now, Ah Ying is back with us," Baoshan Sanren said. Wei Ying smiled and looked down. Wait, what do they mean about him being away? Wait! Wei Fan nodded sadly and went to Wei Ying's side and hugged him. He was confused.

What do they mean?
