       The group spoke quietly about the things that they had seen would happen in the future. Lan Xichen was feeling extremely bad with the murderous intent being sent his way every time his father looked at him. Lan Wangji was feeling a bit smothered with his father refusing to release him and Baoshan's hand clasped tightly on his shoulder. The grip was almost painful. 

Lan Sizhui- Shouldn't we be more worried about the impending war that will destroy all the                                   sects?

Lan Meilin- They had it coming. Let the pretentious hypocrites burn for what they did to Wangji.

          Her aura was particularly dark making the people around her wish they could move away from her. Wen Rouhan just laughed loudly "Well said, young lady. I don't know why the war happened but they deserved it for being so greedy.....hmmmm.....maybe we do need a purge in the cultivation world." The entire room full of people paled at his words until Baoshan backhanded him telling him to shut his mouth. He was saved from suffering more abuse by the screen filling with color again.


          Yilling Laozu rushed off to find the same clearing in the forest where he had seen Hanguang-Jun end his life, knowing he would have to wait in hiding for a few more hours. The task would be simple enough since every year on the anniversary of Hanguang-Jun's death he would go to the clearing and leave gifts at his makeshift grave.


Qingheng-Jun- That's so sweet of him. Wangji you have a very dedicated lover.

Lan Wangji's ears were burning but he scowled "He is not my lover" Qingheng-Jun just squeezed him harder "We will see son. I as your father approve go get your man." Lan Wangji sputtered not knowing what the hell were the people here thinking. Baoshan had even called him her son-in-law. He didn't even know this man.


 He climbed a tree with a complete view of the clearing and began to put his thoughts in order. Hesistantly he called one of his helpers "A-Hua". A beautiful woman in a red wedding dress floated before him with a big smile on painted red lips. "Sorry it took so long to call A-Hua I need a favor from you, please. I will be going to the Lan Clan soon. Can you please make a report of any wrongdoings the corrupted elders of that clan have done? Ask in the underworld if you must; I wanna know it all." The woman nodded before patting his head gently and leaving. With nothing else to do Yilling Laozu pulled out talisman paper and started making the talismans he invented to fight off Wen Rouhan.


Some of the Lan Clan members paled while others like Jingy felt highly insulted that they could think the elders were crooked. Lan Xichen, Lan Wangji, and Qingheng-Jun exchanged looks knowing all their sect's dirty deeds would come out in the open in front of everyone.


       He had gotten so consumed in his work that he almost fell out of the tree when someone entered the clearing. The air was knocked out of his lungs when he saw the Hanguang-Jun standing before him after so long. He was mesmerized by the man's dark hair swaying in the breeze, deep piercing golden eyes full of sorrow, and white blinding aura. He hated seeing such a haunted look in those beautiful golden orbs. It took him a moment to move on from his beauty and take in the scene in front of him before he panicked. Lan Wangji was raising his crystal-like sword to his throat. In an act of desperation, Yilling Laozu flung himself out of the tree tackling Lan Wangji to the floor and knocking the sword away from him.


Silence filled the room for a second while everyone processed what they had just seen. Then laughter rang out from everyone except Lan Wangji. Even Lan Wangji was highly amused at seeing the god fling himself off a tree like that.
