Third Person's POV

After that, Wei Wuxian's night went smoothly.

On the next day, Nie Huaisang came to him with an overjoyed expression, "Wei-xiong, you really struck it lucky. The old man went to our sect's Discussion Conference last night, so we don't have classes for a few days!"

Now that the old one is gone, the young one can be easily taken care of! Wei WuXian quickly climbed up, beaming as he put on his boots, "A lucky strike, indeed, almost as if Heaven is blessing me with its clouds."

Jiang Cheng stood on the side, carefully cleaning his sword, and threw cold water on this notion, "When he comes back, you're still gonna get your punishment's."

Wei WuXian responded, "Why would a living person worry about what happens after they die? I'll just live freely as long as possible. Let's go. I refuse to believe that I can't find any pheasants on this mountain of the Lan Sect. And also there is nothing wrong sitting everyday in the library Pavilion as long as i can stare at Xiaolian's pretty face"

Nie Huaisang sighed, "I envy you"

The three walked together, passing through the reception room of the Cloud Recesses. Suddenly, Wei WuXian stopped in his tracks and exclaimed, "There are two lil' fuddy... Lan Zhan-s!"

A few people walked out of the room. Of the two youths at the front, both looked as if they were carved out of ice and jade, both wore the same snow-white robes, and both had sword tassels which swayed in the breeze, alongside ribbons on their clothes.

The only differences were their ambiences and facial expressions.

Wei Wuxian could tell at once that, if the one with a stern face was Lan Wangji, the gentle one must be the other Jade of the Lan Sect-Zewu-Jun, Lan Xichen.

While the Lan Xiaolian who's Wei Wuxian was expecting to see is not with them.

However Lan Xichen grinned, "And you are...?"

Jiang Cheng showed his respect with a salute, "Jiang WanYin of Yunmeng."

Wei WuXian followed, "Wei WuXian of Yunmeng."

"Ohh" Lan Xichen gasped, 'this was the man mei mei was agitating about' He returned the salute.

Nie Huaisang whispered in the volume of a gnat, "Brother Xichen."

Lan Xichen turned to him, "Huaisang, a while ago, as I returned from Qinghe, your brother asked of your studies. How is it? This year, will you be able to pass?"

Nie Huaisang replied, "Generally speaking, yes..." He seemed like a wilted cucumber, looking at Wei Wuxian in a helpless way. Wei Wuxian grinned, "Zewu-Jun, may i knoe where are you going?"

Lan Xichen, "To exterminate the perilous creature in Bushe Village. We were short of hands, so I came back to find Wangji"

Wei Wuxian then spoke, "its our first time hearing about the Bushe village.... the name is quite interesting." Jiang Cheng nodded to Wei Wuxian's remark.

Wei Wuxian continued to speak about the meaning of the word bushe, "unwilling to let go of, perhaps the village head who named it might be lovesick" he tittered after.

Lan Xichen was delighted about the cleverness of Wei Wuxian, "From what I've heard, the person who named the village had fallen in loved with a divine being but their intimacy is impermissible" he ceased with a bitter tone.

Lan Wangji spoke unconcerned, "Brother, we do not need to engage in small talk. This matter permits no delay; it is time for us to depart."

Wei WuXian hurried, "Wait, wait, wait. We might help, back at Yunmeng we really like to capture pheasant's everyday. Zewu-Jun, why don't you take us along?"
