Author POV

After entering the city, the two walked side-by-side through the bustling crowd. All of a sudden, Lan Wangji asked, "How is the Curse Mark?"

Wei Wuxian, "Jin Ling was buried too close to our dear friend and got stained with quite a lot of resentful energy. It faded a bit, but it's not completely gone. The chances are we can only find a way to remove it after we find the whole corpse or at least the head. It doesn't really cause much trouble anyways."

The "dear friend" was none other than the man that had been cut to pieces. Since they didn't know who he was, Wei Wuxian suggested that they referred to him as a "dear friend". Lan Wangji didn't say anything after hearing it, but he didn't object to it either, which could be interpreted as a silent approval. Of course, he himself wouldn't ever use the word.

"Back to normal world!" commented Lan Jingyi, it was good since he wasn't in mood to watch that complicated world more.

"After he transferred that curse mark?" questioned a disciple.

"Mn!" answered Zizhen.

Lan Wangji, "How much is 'a bit'?"

Wei Wuxian indicated with his hands, "A bit is just a bit. How do I explain it? Should I take my clothes off and show you?"

"Shameless!" exclaimed Lan qiren.

Lan Wangji's brows shifted slightly, as if he was actually worried that Wei Wuxian would strip right here and right now. He replied with an indifferent tone, "Take them off after we return."

"Now who is more shameless here, Shushu? Me or your priced cabbage huh?" asked Wei wuxian while raising his eyebrows.

"Don't call me that!" said Lan qiren.

"Wei ying!" called Lan zhan.

"We all know the answer!" said Jin ling.

"That, Shushu is most shameless here!" continued Lan Jingyi.

"See, how honest my nephew's are, Unlike someone!" said Wei wuxian and Lan qiren glared at him.

Wei Wuxian laughed, whirled around, and walked a few steps facing backward. Before, in order to escape as soon as possible, he desperately tried to disgust others, from feigning madness to purposely losing face. Now that his identity was revealed, if he were anyone else, he would've felt extremely ashamed remembering all those things he did. Only someone with a face as thick as Wei Wuxian would carry on as if he wasn't involved in anything. Speaking of it, if he were anyone else with at least some face, he would never have done ridiculous things such as climbing into someone's bed at night, insisting on sharing a bathtub together, and asking if he looked pretty after putting on makeup. Since he pretended that he didn't remember anything, Lan Wangji naturally refrained from bringing up the subject, the two acting as if nothing had happened. Today was the first time he made such a joke again after his identity was no longer a secret.

"It's you, the most shameless!" said Lan qiren looking at Wei wuxian as he got some proof.

"But Lan zhan like it, right honey?" Wei wuxian grinned.

"Mn, like Wei ying!" Lan zhan seriously couldn't hear anything after hearing the 'honey' word from Wei wuxian's mouth. That single word could control Lan zhan like he was under some kind of spell to agree with Wei wuxian on everything.

Lan qiren understood that there was no point of even claiming something, Lan zhan won't agree on anything against Wei wuxian.

When he finished laughing, Wei Wuxian immediately put on a serious face, "Hanguang-Jun, do you think that the people who set our dear friend's hand in Mo Village and made it attack your juniors, and the people who sewed his legs on another corpse and buried them in the wall, are the same group of people?"
