    Summary

    Before Wei Wuxian can say he will join Jiang Cheng and attend the Wen indoctrination, a letter describing the burning of the Cloud Recesses reaches Lotus Pier.

    Realizing the danger to the Jiang sect, he decides to stay behind to help with the defenses and keep his sect safe. While he agonizes over the fate of the disciples sent as little more than hostages, he upgrades the wards of the Jiang sect to stand against the inevitable Wen army.

    Lotus Pier will survive, and Wei Wuxian changes his own fate and the fate of the Sunshot Campaign.

    Summary

    After Wei Wuxian's death, Lan Wangji went insane, doing everything in his power to get back his most precious person. Willing to sacrifice every single person in the cultivation world to reclaim his love.

    He succeeds, and with the use of a blood-fueled array, went back in time to when he first met his Wei Ying: As children, in the streets of Yiling. With his fully adult mind, his obsession with Wei Ying, and his disillusioned views on the cultivation world, Lan Zhan decides to manipulate the world to his liking. A world where he rules, where he decides what is justice, who lives and who dies.

    But there are higher powers fighting in the background, a bigger mystery afoot, perhaps greater than the cultivation world.

    Summary

    At sixteen Wei Wuxian is—through some strange twist of fate, or a nick in the layer between parallel universes, who knows—out of the blue confronted with that one incense burner dream one night.

    While his curious mind is left unable to stop poking at this new perspective on Lan Wangji, circumstances in the Cloud Recesses begin to change and Wei Wuxian is suddenly presented with life-altering opportunities.

    Maybe Gusu isn’t so bad after all?

    (Or alternatively: The fic where I get to give Wei Wuxian the academic scholarship he deserves while simultaneously getting him hitched early on.)

    This fic has a Spanish and a Portuguese translation! Please visit the links in the Notes of Chapter 1 to read!

    Summary

    After three years of the Guanyin temple events, Wei WuXian and Lan WangJi continue to live a happy life full of love and advantures. However, Lan WangJi knows that his husband still misses his siblings. And if it meant he has to manipulate time to ensure Wei Ying's happiness, so be it.

    < Lan WangJi, who rushed forward wrapping his arms so protectively around Wei WuXian's waist, appearing to be hyperventilating (hypertensing) while he kept repeating "BACK OFF" to every person trying to get to them or touch Wei Ying. >

    Summary

    Within one afternoon, the Yunmeng Jiang Clan became a mere branch of the Wen Clan. They lost their estate, all of their assets, and Wei Wuxian – He lost an arm. All to appease Wen Ruohan. To the Jiangs, the name Wen became a curse to be hissed out between gritted teeth. To Wei Wuxian, the name Wen became something dear after Wen Ning and Wen Qing saved his life and took him in.

    Years later, Wen Ruohan and his sons have long since died under mysterious circumstances and Wei Wuxian has been branded a traitor to the high society of the cultivation world. Together with the remaining Wens, he turned to the civilian world and revolutionized the medical field by developing prosthetics controlled by spiritual energy.

    Enter: Lan Wangji.

    After their fight against the Tulu Xuanwu, his leg never really recovered. Years of countless surgeries and feeling as if he was living inside a gilded cage while being patronized by his family passed, until Lan Wangji finally took his chance and absconded. To Yiling.

    Summary

    At fifteen, during summer camp in Cloud Recesses, Wei Wuxian invents a bunch of talismans when bored or prompted by Nie Husaisang. Thinking it awfully funny, he creates a throwaway account at a professional cultivation research/purchase network and uploads them for sale for a modest fee. Then, he forgets about the whole thing.
    Years later, the mysterious Yiling Patriarch is known in all Jianghu as an elusive genius cultivator who revolutionised his field.
    Those two statements might or might not be related.

    In other words: three different ways in which Wei Wuxian finds out he is filthy rich and academically acclaimed. That’s it. That’s the story.

    Summary

    Jiang Cheng entered the Sunshot Campaign with an unexpected ally, a creature in the form of a crow that could command resentment and other resentful creatures at will. The other sect leaders believed he had control over an unusually powerful yao, until it showed its true form on Qiongqi Path to whisk away the Wen remnants.

    With the help of an ingenious inventor by the name of Wei Wuxian, they seal it away. But nothing is ever that simple. With many believing the creature may be linked to the mysterious demon, the Yiling Laozu, that was said to be defeated years ago, it isn’t long until the seal is broken and it’s a race to figure out where the creature is as cultivators and entire Sects begin to be attacked.

    (Jiang Cheng thinks that's ridiculous. He may not know what Wei Wuxian is, but there's no way that idiot is a powerful, unknown creature comparable to a god. And Lan Zhan just wants Wei Ying to be safe.)

    Summary

    He thought of all the pain and death that was to come. There was so much that went wrong in the cultivation world in the next few years. The weight of responsibility felt insurmountable.

    Lan Qiren had never wanted to be a politician or leader. That role was meant for his brother. He had done his best in the years he had led the sect but he was aware that he was not the best person for the job. His interests had always been the academic pursuits and teaching the next generation. How could he hope to make an impact on the mess of political manoeuvring and aggression that was imminent? He decided he could only focus on the events which impacted his family the most. He could save Cloud Recesses from being burned. He could protect both his nephews from their disastrous relationships. He could protect the books they lost in the war.

    Or

    Lan Qiren travels back in time and tries to fix the future.

    Summary

    Do not go near Wei Ying.

    The words are clear and concise, etched neatly into the unyielding stone of Gusu Lan's wall of rules by Grandmaster Lan Qiren himself. It's unmistakable too, having the Wei character for ghost and Ying for infant - Clearly meant to allude towards one specific person living in the Cloud Recesses.

    For a long time, Lan Jingyi has always taken Grandmaster Lan's chiding of him "not upholding Gusu Lan conduct appropriately," with some measure of practiced aplomb. Years of being under Hanguang-Jun's careful tutelage has taught him that there is more to being righteous and moral than mere writings on the wall, and Jingyi has learned to shrug off the more arbitrary reprimands of his home Sect.

    But as he stands before the Discipline wall, he doesn't think he wants to do that this time. To simply shrug it off and let it go. And from the carefully concealed frowns on his fellow disciples' faces, he suspects that he might not be alone in his sentiment.

    Summary

    It was an extreme, a desperate decision fueled by anger towards the entire cultivation world, a grief deeper than the deepest trenches in the ocean. The realization that Lan Wangji would now have to continue on living a second time without his beloved, where Wei Wuxian had died once again. Where, once more, his love had been taken from him by cruel, unrighteous men who thought they knew better, that they were doing the world a justice.

    Lan Qiren had seen the state that his nephew had been in after Wei Wuxian’s first death, what Lan Wangji had done in his grief then, and he feared what Lan Wangji would do to himself if he was left alone with this repeated grief.
