In the ancient realm there was a soul who was known widely as Hanguang-Jun.
He was known to be aloof and away from worldly beings. Seldom people knew him for who he was or what his heart truly yearned in reality.
A man who loved dearly and in retu...
Watching you walk around Burial Mountain, greeting and being accepted by everyone around, I realised, you were right Wei. These ordinary humans needed a savior. Looking back at the promise we made together in Gusu, I am proud of you Wei. You stood by your conviction to help the poor and against injustice, but at what cost?
You stand there, smiling at the jokes, helping them til the barren land, but my Wei, your eyes look lost. I wish I could take you in the depths of these mountains, so that you can cry. Bring out all the emotions and tear down your wall. Can you hear me Wei? Let me be the salvation you need. Please.
Seeing your comradeship with Wen Qing, it pains me Wei. Not that I am jealous, I will never be of person who takes care of you. But it pains me that I am not here. Shall I leave Gusu? Shall I renounce my title to be with you? I want to. But there is someone waiting for me back there too.
Torn in a situation where I am unable to be with you, hurts me the most.
Do you know what's my deepest desire? It is to be with you, forever. Would I ever have the courage? You look so frail, my Wei. This is not the man I knew from before. You were radiant. You were beautiful. You were innocent.
Now?
Now you resemble the deepest and darkest sin in a person. Your aura is not pure but is resentful. Your smile has turned perfunctory. Having no emotions behind them. Everything about your abode reeks of unorthodox practices which would be forbidden by all the combined Sects.
Bringing back the soul of Wen Ning, is a commendable job but at what cost. Your health is deteriorating. Watching the person whom I cherish the most, living under such conditions, rips my heart out.
"Wei?"
"Lan Zhan" you smile.
"Will you be able to control this?"
With a solemn but yet convinced you answer "Yes, I can. I have no choice".
I hope you can control this Wei. Coughing blood and looking frail, come back with me, maybe I could protect you. But when I look around, I know there is no way the world would let me protect you, let alone the entire Wen Clan.

Even under these tense moments when you choose to lean your head on my shoulders, the fleeting happiness will always be treasured by me.
"Lan Zhan" I detect sorrow in your voice "I apologise, we never have any guest. I am unable to give you tea" you look away and all I want is to gaze into your eyes for eternity. These don't matter to me. What matters is you.
"Wei, are you sure you want to continue in this path?" I yearn to hold your hand. Feel the warmth of yours skin under mine. In that moment, I yearned to embrace you.
