9 parts Ongoing "Do you know what the golden eyes represent, Wangji?"
"No, brother. What do they mean?"
"You have the blood of a miracle, Wangji. You are the last Phoenix."
The cultivation world had forgotten about the people who owned the eyes of a Phoenix, which is now what they believe to be a myth. But, to its surprise, Lan Wangji had grown into those very eyes after being born with the common color of brown. They say that the last Phoenix had worn that very shade, a burning amber that would pierce through the night sky, no matter how dark that sky may be.
Wei Wuxian, the Prince of Yunmeng, has come of age. The Jiangs were to give him a masquerade ball for three nights in a row in order for him to choose his spouse. Lan Wangji had planned to visit for just one night, which had gone very wrong. Lan Wangji's eyes were only a light brown when Wei Wuxian studied at the Cloud Recesses. They were not yet the shining gold that has reappeared today.
Would the Prince recognize Lan Wangji behind his mask? Or would he ignore his first love, despite the color that has shown itself to the world once more?
