So engrossed were Wei Ying and Omega Wei Wuxian in talking to each other, they didn't even realize that not only they'd entered Cloud Recesses but were also close to Yashi. And just so happened to be overheard by not only Wen Ning who was walking behind them, silently, but also Lan Zhan, Ayuan, Jingyi, Lan Xichen, Uncle Lan and Healer Fu who had gathered in Yashi to discuss Wei Ying's weak health, in his absence.
"L-Lan Zhan?!" Wei Ying turned around immediately to look at his Lan Zhan, surprised
"Wei Ying!" Lan Zhan glared at his Wei Ying, angrily
Not even a single day passed when Lan Zhan wasn't worried, felt powerless and scared of losing his Wei Ying ever since he noticed his Wei Ying's gradually and unusually deteriorating health condition even when he himself takes care of his Wei Ying's meditation, cultivation, massages, meals and sleeping every day without fail while managing his Chief cultivator duties.
Lan Zhan often felt torn.
His heart only ever desired to stay by his Wei Ying's side, look after him and only him. But Lan Zhan could see very clearly that even though his Xiongzhang never really asked him to return back to his duties as the Chief Cultivator, Xichen was over-burdened with the responsibilities of a Sect Leader and working on behalf of the Chief Cultivator.
Lan Zhan could see that while he was able to spend time with his Wei Ying, with his whole family, his Xiongzhang didn't even have time to send a proper reply to Sect Leader Jiang's daily messages.
It was the only reason why Lan Zhan reluctantly and heavy-heartedly left his sound-asleep Wei Ying in the safety of Jingshi every morning and returned in the evening as soon as he was able to finish his daily work of ensuring the proper functioning of every sect in the cultivation world and resolving several minor and major inter-sect and intra-sect disputes.
For the time being, waking up to his Wei Ying's sleeping face gracing a soft smile, small whines, incoherent grumbling and grabby hands whenever Lan Zhan carefully pulled himself out of his Wei Ying's warm arms, every morning, was enough to keep his fears at bay.
However, things became alarming when his Wei Ying's warm glowing golden skin started turning a shade paler than normal. To others, his Wei Ying might've looked even more beautiful, with red full lips, sparkling silver eyes and ebony hairs contrasting his pale skin tone but Lan Zhan knew. His heart knew and it screamed at Lan Zhan to act now, do something now or he'll lose his Wei Ying, forever.
Lan Zhan began discussing his daily observations with Healer Fu because his Wei Ying was too reluctant to go and get checked by the healer, himself. Scared of having those awful medicines and bitter herby soups again since his appetite was back on track to his usual spicy self after the birth of little devil.
As time passed, it wasn't only Lan Zhan who noticed the changes in Wei Ying's energy level and health condition. And soon Wen Ning, Ayuan, Lan Xichen and Jiang Cheng followed by the rest of his family often joined him in his discussion with Healer Fu.
"Mama, what is it that you didn't tell us?! What will happen if Wei gongzi extends his stay here in our world? Tell us! Please!" Ayuan asked, worriedly
Wei Ying glared at the omega, annoyedly, before closing his eyes and taking a deep breath to calm his racing heart and said meekly, "I'm sorry, Lan Zhan, Ayuan. I didn't tell you this earlier because I just didn't want you all to worry about something that hasn't even happened at that time.
No one knew when will the omega wake up or what will be his reaction once he woke up.
So, after the birth of the little devil, when omega finally woke up and later, agreed to work with us to return back to his own world as soon as possible, I didn't feel the need of giving you all any more tension."
