    Summary


    “Wei Ying?” Nie Mingjue prompted him gently. “Where are your parents?”

    “They went on a night hunt,” Wei Ying said, a bit evasively.

    “Your parents are cultivators?” Da-ge asked in surprise. “Did they leave you here while they hunted? When did they go on their night hunt?”

    “Four summers ago,” Wei Ying said a bit uncomfortable.

    “Four summers ago,” Nie Mingjue repeated. “What are your parents’ names?”

    “My mama is Cangse Sanren and my baba is Wei Changze,” Wei Ying told him, and recognition registered in Nie Mingjue’s eyes.

    “Wei Ying,” Nie Mingjue said, sounding a bit regretful, “Your parents aren’t coming back.”


    Or, Nie Mingjue and Nie Huaisang run into Wei Ying while in Yiling and decide to bring him home. And it changes everything.

    Summary

    “What would you do if you could have him back?” Nie Huaisang asked him, a bit too seriously as he leaned forward.

    “There is no way for a dead cultivator to return,” Jiang Cheng scoffed, not even willing to entertain the thought.

    “Perhaps, perhaps not,” Nie Huaisang shrugged, “Even if he came back, that wouldn’t do much to help, would it? Your sister is still gone. His reputation still damaged.”

    “Stop speaking in riddles,” Jiang Wanyin growled, “What did you come here for, Nie Huaisang?”

    “I asked you what you would do for your brother back,” Nie Huaisang started, “I would do anything to have mine back, Jiang Wanyin. And I’m here to offer you that same choice. Because our brothers’ deaths never should have happened. They happened because of schemes and plots. They happened because of lies and deception. Your brother was made to be a villain and was led to his death because he was too powerful. Mine was murdered because he stood in the way of Jin Guangshan.”

    There's nothing Jiang Cheng wouldn't do to have his siblings back. And when Nie Huaisang comes to him with a proposal to save them by changing everything, he doesn't even hesitate to agree.

    Summary

    The first thing Wei Ying became aware of was cold steel at his throat.
    Not one blade—several.
    He did not move.

    Sleep still clung to him, heavy and disorienting, but instinct burned through it fast enough. His eyes cracked open to darkness cut by lantern light, and beyond it, the rigid silhouettes of Gusu Lan disciples. White robes. Swords steady. Not trembling.
    Not a mistake, then.

    Wei Ying let out a slow breath, careful not to shift against the edge pressing lightly into his skin. “Well,” he said, voice rough with sleep, “this is a new way to wake up.”

    No one laughed.
    That, more than the swords, told him something was very wrong.

    “You will come with us,” one disciple said. Young. Formal. Afraid—but hiding it well. “You are to be detained and questioned.”

    “Questioned?” Wei Ying echoed. His mind raced, sifting through the previous day. Punishments—yes. Lan Wangji standing over him like a silent judge. Copying rules until his wrist ached. Kneeling until his legs went numb. Nothing new, nothing unusual, nothing that should end with… this.

    He frowned. “Did I break a new rule I haven’t heard of yet?”

    Summary

    Omega Wei Wuxian never saw himself becoming a political pawn and is shocked to find himself scheduled to mate his alpha friend Lan Wangji—who doesn’t seem at all enthused by this decision. Ouch. Thankfully there’s more than enough to keep Wei Wuxian occupied from his new responsibilities: figuring out who’s coordinating deadly rogue attacks on the pack, checking in on the Wen survivors, making sure A-Yuan has medicine…

    …But he’s still gotta figure out how to court an alpha like Lan Wangji.

    Summary

    Trash talking pre-game is tradition; trash talking about wanting to fuck your opponent is new. // When trash talk gets too real, Wei Wuxian is left questioning everything he knows about Lan Wangji.

    ““Y-you know, it’s very er, unbecoming of you to use my name like that.” What else was he supposed to say? Wei Wuxian can feel sweat beading at his hairline as his eyes dart to find someone to stop this, but there is none.

    “We are closer than you think. Our souls have been searching for this moment to meet and let me fuck you raw in the ass.”

    At this point, Wei Wuxian couldn’t keep it in and leaned over to Jiang Cheng, “What the fuck, man?!”

    Jiang Cheng hisses back, equally confused, “The fuck do I know? Since when did he talk this much?”

    “Oh, that’s the part you fixate on?”
