Wei Wuxian was falling and his life was flashing in front of his eyes. He wondered where he had gone wrong and how it had all come to this.

What if he had never been taken in by the Yunmeng Jiang sect? Would he have been here?

What if he had not caused so much trouble when he had been young? Would Madame Yu have come to like him?

What if he had not made an enemy out of Lan Qiren during his studies? Would he have been able to go plead with the Gusu Lan sect for the lives of the Wen remnants?

What if he had not angered Wen Chao and the Qishan Wen sect? Would Lotus Pier had not fallen and would Jiang Cheng have not lost his golden core?

What if he had not picked up demonic cultivation? Would the allied forces of the Sunshot Campaign still have been able to win the war?

What if he had not been so arrogant and turned the whole cultivation world against himself? Would there have been less lives lost?

What if he had not refused Lan Zhan's help over and over again? Would his life have ended differently?
