The Untamed

This is written using a different plot from the drama. But the characters are the same. I had changed the roles of some people. So please don't think badly about anything. I just wanted to make the story as to how I would like it to have ended. Enjoy reading the Untamed written by me. 

Wei Ying decided that the only way for him to stop the whole battle and be free from all the misunderstanding that he was going through was to kill himself. He decided that the best way to kill himself was to fall from the cliff which was right below him. He took one last look at his beloved and took a step back. He knew even if he fell there was no one who would cry for him or atleast try to save him because of the misunderstandings they had on him.

 He could feel the air gushing above as he was falling. When he opened his eyes for the one last time, he could see Lan Zhan running towards him with tears in his eyes. The person who scolded Wei Ying when everyone loved him had now come to help him when everyone just wanted him to be killed. "Lan Zhan you believe me right? " Wei Ying gasped as he held his one and only lover's hand. Below him was the unending cliff of death, which he knew if he fell he would never return. " Wei wuxian! , what made you think that I will not believe you" Lan Zhan told him.

He could feel Lan Zhan's blood running through his arms. When all of a sudden there could be heard laughter from behind them. "Yiling Patriarch how dare you to try to escape from being killed by me" Wei wuxian couldn't believe that his best friend Jiang Cheng whom he thought of as a brother would be against him. "Lan wanji you are helping him. Should I send you with him as well?" he shouted pointing his sword at Wei Ying. But before he could kill him Wei Ying let go of Lan Zhan's hand and smiled with tears in his eyes while falling and saying " wait for me Wanji". Lan Zhan's heart dropped as he saw his beloved falling towards his death. "Wei Ying I will wait for you" he shouted as tears fell from his eyes.

16 years later... 

Mo Xuanyu got up from his deep sleep upon the old house of his. As soon as he woke up he could see a tall black figure looking at him. Mo Xuanyu was known as a mad man in his village who kept on saying he was not mad. He thought that he had really become mad now that he was seeing figures. "Mo Xuanyu, can you see those cuts on your arm? Do you know how to get rid of those, if you don't I can tell you? You have to revenge for me and for yourself. Kill all those who had tortured you and live the life you were supposed to live" saying thus the figure vanished and the doors opened with soldiers of his clan marching inside followed by their leader's son.

 He pulled Xuanyu and asked him if he had stolen anything from their clan. "wasn't I in my house this whole day how can I steal anything" Xuanyu asked. The soldiers searched the entire room and said that there was nothing and left Xuanyu all alone. He seemed to remember some forgotten memories of a person. "Wanji!" he exclaimed as he remembered the person's name. Xuanyu decided it was best for him to leave his village so he could be free from all the beatings he got every day.

As he was packing his stuff he started remembering memories of more people, this time they were all fighting. " I wonder what's wrong with me? Why am I remembering these" he exclaimed when a voice said to him " Wei Wuxian kill them for me" 

He didn't know why he was feeling very angry when that was said but decided to leave somehow. The next day he mounted his donkey and left his home. On his way, he met some Lan clan soldiers but none of them recognized him as he was wearing his mask to hide from them. 

Xuanyu saw a temple not far from where he was and he could feel the negative energy all around it so he decided to stop by. There was no population near the temple as it was rumored to be haunted by the human-eating spirit. " That's strange. I wonder whose inside" he said to himself as he walked towards it. There he saw the lan clan disciples who were gathered around a statue which was the human-eating statue. "poor boys let me help them" he thought and pulled out his flute which he made on his way to the temple. 

The statue began shaking all of a sudden and rocks began falling all over. 

Xuanyu started playing the flute and the statue slowly began to stop shaking, but then all of a sudden the statue rose from its corner and started chasing them. "oh no! I played the wrong tune..everyone run outside" he exclaimed as the young disciples ran towards the exit. They ran for about ten minutes when they, at last, stopped as they couldn't see the statue anymore. "senior Xuanyu how come you are not mad after all. I thought you were mad as everyone said" sizhui asked. "you should never believe what people say unless you see it for yourself boy" he replied.

When they were talking thus they could hear the statue roaring from a distance and everyone began to panic. "how come you'll are so scared I thought your senior taught you'll to fight" he chuckled. He took out his flute and began to just play it. The tune just came to his mind although he had never played it before. Seconds after he had started playing it someone just jumped out of nowhere wearing all black from head to toe. "Oh my God it's the ghost General" One exclaimed. "wasn't he dead?" another one shouted. Xuanyu had no idea what was happening. He decided to just keep playing the music until the statue retrieves. The ghost General started fighting with the statue and at last, he broke the statue into pieces. "It's the ghost General don't let him escape this time. His master Yiling patriarch is not here so he will not fight" someone shouted.

Xuanyu smirked as he began playing another tune which made the ghost general Wen Ning start to fight the swords which were coming to him. Everyone was shocked when they saw the ghost General fighting for his life. He started to strangle people when Xuanyu decided that it was best for Wen Ning to leave before the leaders of their clans come.

He started playing another tune this time he didn't know how he played it. It just came to his mind. As he started playing it tears came to his eyes. The ghost General stopped for a while as he started playing the flute he stared at Xuanyu and began to approach him. Xuanyu began to step behind when he stopped. He could feel someone behind him, holding his flute. He gasped in horror as he turned back to see who this person was. It was... Lan Zhan. 

He didn't know what to do, even though he was wearing his mask he knew that he would recognize him. Xuanyu's heart started beating fast as Lan Zhan held him which made him drop his flute. The ghost General on seeing Lan Zhan fled to the forest as soon as possible. At the same time the clan leaders arrived at the scene to see what had happened. "Master it's ghost General Wen Ning. He was here." pointing at Xuanyu they said "it was him who brought him back to life" Xuanyu was shocked because the clan leaders might recognize him. Then came the leader of the village Wei Ying's best friend who tried to kill him. "So you are back Wei Ying" he told as he pulled his purple lightning from his pocket at directed it to Xuanyu. 

Xuanyu closed his eyes as he thought he might die because of the purple lightning. But no, the lightning was gone by a very loud sound of an instrument. Everyone was shocked including Xuanyu when they saw that Lan Zhan had stopped the lightning from hurting Xuanyu. "remove your mask before I do it for you" someone ordered. "huh if I remove it you will be shocked to death" Xuanyu replied. Xuanyu began to run and that's when the lightning hit him again and he fell to the ground. "Master he might not be Yiling Patriarch because if it was him he would have died by now." said one of them.

 "Didn't you kill Yiling Patriarch by yourself in the cliff of Nevernight?" someone asked. They all agreed that this was not Yiling Patriarch so they left the place. Only Lan Zhan stood by his side even though they all left. Mo Xuanyu began to fall backward as he was looking at Lan Zhan with tearful eyes. "how I wish I was in lotus cove" he said to himself and then his eyes closed but he didn't fall. He felt someone carrying him somewhere but had no idea who it was or where he was taking him to. But one thing he knew was that he would be safe with him for sure. 

16 years ago... 

"Wei wuxian wake up and stop sleeping on these boats every day before class. if you be like this you are not going to achieve anything in your life". "Ahh, I'm coming senior sis" Wei Wuxian shouted back. "But as long as I have you and Jiang Cheng I'm all happy," he said. "Bro come soon, class is going to start. Master will punish us if we go late," Jiang cheng said. Wei wuxian got up from his peaceful sleep and came down the ladder and the best friends went running to the classroom chamber. Their friends were waiting for them and they were pleased to know that they came. "Late today also. you, Wei wuxian is never going to achieve anything in your future as far as I know." said the master. "why only me, even Jiang Cheng came late". "He is the son of the village ruler so it doesn't matter if he came or not but whose son are you?" the master asked. That was right Wei Wuxian was the son of a street seller who died a long time ago. "uh OK I know I'm not anyone's son. I'll try to come early from today" he said with a pouting face. 

It was almost time up for the lesson and Wei Wuxian decided to play for a while with the master. He stuck a paper on the back of the master which said "I'm a very boring master" the students all began to chuckle except for one. And that cold face man was the second child Lan whose name was Lan Zhan. He pulled the paper and threw it right at Wie Wuxian's face. Which made him make a face like this. 

Lan Zhan was a very serious student and he was the perfect one who was good at everything but couldn't handle alcohol. This was found out by Wei Wuxian himself when Lan Zhan caught him drinking with some friends and they had to run but Wei Ying made Lan zhan drink it using the puppet spell and just with one sip he fell down. So Wei Wuxian had to carry him all the way to his room. 

Wei Wuxian had always tried to make Lan Zhan his friend but he never excepted Wei Ying as his friend. 

Lan zhan had always been so cold-hearted towards Wei Ying, which made Wei Ying think that he would not even save him when he's in a trouble. 

Wei wuxian also known as Wei Ying was a very friendly person whom everyone loved except for Lan Zhan. 

There came this day when Wei Ying was being chased by a dog which he was very scared of. No one came to his help. He was all on his own running from it when he screams and out of nowhere, Lan Zhan came to his rescue. From that Wei Ying knew that he considered him as a friend too. One day Wei wuxian decided to drink while sleeping on the roof and when he hardly got to the top of the roof he looked at the moon and decided it was a good day to drink while looking at the moon. Little did he know that Lan Zhan was looking at him drinking. Although Wei Ying knew that it was a mistake to drink in the village he still did and everyone knew that. 

When he looked to his right there was Lan Zhan looking at him with an angry face. Wei Ying laughed and told him "aye Lan zhan I'm not disturbing anyone what's wrong with drinking a little wine". Without saying anything at all he threw two rocks at the drinks and the alcohol started leaking. "Lan Zhan didn't I say I was not disturbing anyone, why did you break my drink?". Said Wei Ying.

 And with that Lan Zhan just walked away. So that night Wei Ying had to go to bed without drinking. The next morning he woke up late and went late to class again. This time the master gave him severe punishment. He had to do what Lan Zhan does for an entire day so he could become just like him. Just as normal there was no expression on Lan Zhan's face and Wei Ying was told that he should be tied to him for a day. "A day! No way I will do that." Wei Ying said. But he had to do it anyways. At first, they both had to study in the library for an hour which made Wei Ying very bored. So instead he decided to draw. And that was how that one hour passed. Next Lan Zhan said he had to meet with some friends. "Don't judge them" he said and pulled Wei Ying with him.

 They went into a forest and stopped at a staircase of a temple where there were many cute little rabbits. "whoa I never knew that the stone-hearted Lan Zhan loved animals" said Wei Ying. "Didn't I tell you to be quiet" Lan zhan whispered. When they were done looking after the rabbits a huge sound was heard. It came from the temple. Lan Zhan ran pulling Wei Ying with him into the temple and there they saw the human-eating statue which was trying to free itself. Lan Zhan started playing his instrument to calm it down and Wei Ying couldn't help asking if he needed any help. "I never asked you for help," Lan Zhan said. When suddenly the statue came towards Lan zhan with a sword and it was about to kill him when Wei Ying started playing his flute.

Within a second the statue stopped where it was and it was put back in its original position. "see I asked you if you needed any help. You are very ignorant" said Wei Ying. Lan zhan couldn't say anything so he pulled Wei Ying outside and took him to his room and said "now that's enough for today I'll leave you by yourself we can part ways and....... Urgh... thanks." He said and went away. "At least he said thanks though, "thought Wei Ying. The next day Wei Ying couldn't get up from bed so he didn't attend the class. When he was taking 40 winks the door opened and there came Jiang Cheng and senior sis carrying a bowl of soup for him." Aww, how nice of you'll to bring me some food" Wei Ying sid as he gulped it down hungrily.

 That's when senior sis told him "I didn't make this. Do you know who gave it to me? It was Second Childe Lan. Wei Ying was surprised by what he heard." Wait you are you joking around he had never excepted me as a friend but he still cares for me" he said with a small smile. That night Wei Ying decided to have a walk at the bridge when he noticed that Lan Zhan was also there looking at the moon. "how I wish I have someone to come with me to look at the moon together" Wei Ying said looking at Lan zhan. "In your dreams. I came here for fresh air" Lan Zhan replied. And then he turned away and left. "Aye Lan zhan your headband and is slanted," he said. Lan zhan stopped for a while and tried adjusting it when Wei Ying told him "wait I'll do it for you" and before Lan zhan could push him away he slightly adjusted it. "See, now it's good" Wei Ying said. Lan zhan pushed him away with a shocked expression on his face and went away. "Not even a thanks," Wei Ying thought for himself. 

The next day Wei Ying couldn't find Lan Zhan anywhere. So he went to the river to see if he was there. And there he was bathing in the water as soon as he saw Lan zhan he ran towards him. "Lan zhan you are bathing alone you could have called me to accompany you right" he said. As soon as he saw Wei Ying running towards him he hurriedly put on his clothes and turned around "who let you in? Aren't the guards there" lan zhan asked. "Your father let me in" he told him. "Let me join you" Wei Ying told him. As he got into the water there was a loud splash and when Lan zhan turned around Wei Ying was nowhere to be found. "can you stop playing and come out. The water is deep and cold" Lan zhan told. But there was no response. And there was another splash and Lan zhan was gone too. When he opened his eyes he was In a cold cave with Wei Ying. When he looked up, he saw Wei Ying staring at him. "Come on get up now you are going to break my leg today" he said. Lan zhan hurriedly got up and asked "why did you let me lie on your leg". He asked. "As if I kept you on my leg.you were lying on my leg when I woke up."sorry for that I didn't know" lan zhan replied. 

When they got up at last they went into the cave in search of an exit but when Wei Wuxian was following Lan zhan there was a big sound which went across the room and it hit Wei Ying alone. "It will attack you because you don't have a headband" Lan zhan explained. "Then throw your headband both of us can hold it so even I would get to come inside" Lan zhan hesitated for a while. Sighing he came back to Wei Ying and removed his headband and tied it on his hand, and on Wei ying's hand and both of them went into the cave and found a piece of rock on which was written thee who can touch this should be weak by nature but powerful from the inside. "try it Lan zhan" Wei Ying said.

 But when Lan zhan touched it he couldn't handle the dark powers of the spirits so he let it go. "I'll give it a try" suggested Wei Ying. Lan zhan couldn't believe it when Wei Ying raised the rock by his hands. "Oh wow I am the one whome they had described on it." as soon as Wei Ying put the rock into his pocket both of them landed behind a mountain. "At last I am back. Senior sister might be worried about me I'll have to go to back as soon as possible Lan zhan" Wei Ying told. When he looked down he saw Lan zhan lying below him. "Oops I'm sorry I didn't know you were there" Wei Ying told him. "Can you please get up I'm having a hard time breathing here" said Lan zhan. When they got up they directly went to their rooms. 

The next day the master was teaching them how precouse it was for all Lan clan people to wear their headbands. He told them that only the parents,siblings and significant others could touch the headband of someone. Hearing this Wei Ying stared at Lan zhan who was staring at him with a face. "oh no this was why he never let me touch it and he hesitated to help me oh no" Wei Ying thought. "master what if a stranger touches the headband" he asked. The master looked at him frowning and said "then the person who touched the headband and the owner of the headband will be considered as husband and wife." he said. Wei Ying sat down and stared at Lan zhan with a silly face. And he stared back at him. When the class was over Wei Ying asked Lanzhan "don't tell me that you already knew that but you still gave it to me" and Lan zhan ignored him and went away. 

When the next day came the disciples were told to go on a hunting trip with their weapons. Lan zhan and Wei Ying were put on one team ant the others were devided too. While they were walking Lan zhan stepped on a branch and fell over while Wei Ying couldn't help but wait, and help him get up. It was taking soo long for him to get up so Wei Ying decided to carry Lan zhan. Even though he refused it, he had no other options because he had twisted his ankle and the others were all far ahead of them. "Aww look at those two lovebirds" someone exclaimed. "he twisted his ankle. I don't want him to be left behind" said Wei Ying. "can you please put me down? I don't want people to make fun of me" begged lan zhan. But Wei Ying didn't do that as expected. 

When they reached the placed they first decided to find someone to help them make weapons so Wei Ying went in search of a skilled weapon maker in the woods. As he was searching for one lan zhan decided to make some food for Wei Ying as he might be exhausted. 

As Wei Ying was looking around the forest he heard a loud cry, so he followed the sound and found someone trapped in the ghost island. It was the ghost General Wen Ning himself. Wei Ying decided to help him. As he removed the thorns off Wen Ning, he found out that the thorns were poisoned so he decided to bring the ghost General back to the camp. The ghost General was so thankful that he told "from today I will follow whatever you say as you had saved my life when no one heard me, I wil accept you as my Master" Wei Ying was surprised but accepted to be his master as he asked him if he could help him make weapons. "I'm the master of making weapons. I'll help you" he said, as they both went back together. "There you are I was waiting for you.And may I know what made you bring the ghost General here? Wei Ying explained him that he would help them make weapons,so they got on with their work. 

When they finishes their work Wei Ying asked" can you walk by yourself, or.. Should I carry you home? "." No thanks I will walk myself "said Lan Zhan. 

When they reached home they found out that Jiang Cheng's father had been killed. The people who were near the scene had heard the sound of a flute when he was killed." Flute? There is only one person in this city who plays the flute. That's Wei Wuxian!" one of the masters said. "I was in the forest with second Childe Lan. How could I kill him?" Wei Ying exclaimed. But nothing worked as he tried explaining that he was in the woods. Lan Zhan tried saying the same thing too but no one agreed to it. "he might have left you and gone to kill him" he they said. They didn't let Wei Ying or Lan Zhan speak

"Wei Ying run if they catch you you might be killed instantly" whispered Lan zhan. Wei Ying with the help of the ghost General escaped out of town. From that day there were posters saying that Whoever finds this person and hands him to us will be rewarded. 

A few days later

"I wonder what Wei Ying is doing right now. I hope he's escaped out of town. Wait.. Why am I thinking of him right now. I have so many other works" thought Lan Zhan. 

"I wonder what Lan Zhan is doing right now I hope the people at least believe him" thought Wei Ying in a village far away from his own village. 

"Yuan come here the people are very aggressive nowadays so you better hold my hand from getting lost by the crowd. Wait shall we go visit our village just for once I miss that place. I miss lotus cove.I miss senior sis. I miss Lan Zha....wait why do I miss him?. But... I actually miss him.Jiang Cheng is probably hating me right now. He might have thought that I killed his father. Probably the whole village thinks the same except for Lan zhan and Wen Ning."said Wei Ying." Brother who is Lan Zhan?how come I have never seen him? " asked yuan." I will tell it to you while we are going to my village, but.. I will have to wear a hat covering myself so people will not recognize me. "sighed Wei Ying. 

" Yuan your big brother once secretly loved someone. But I never told it to anyone as I was afraid that the people who are close to me will leave me if they knew it.I have not even told it to him yet because I don't think he likes me. And that person's name is Lan Zhan. And I imagine seeing him everywhere I go. I am still imagining him buying some rabbit lanterns over there " 

" But.. Big brother there is really a person there buying some rabbit lanterns. He is wearing a headband and he is dressed in white." said Yuan. Wei Ying was shocked and happy at the same time because Lan Zhan had already seen him and was staring at him with a smile. 

" Lan Zhan how did you recognize me? Isn't my hat covering my face? " whispers I Wei Ying. 

" It is covering but I saw you taking it off so I knew it was you" said Lan zhan. 

"But may I know who this child is?" he asked. "Ah this is my child his name is Yuan" Wei Ying answered. 

"whatt I was gone just for some days and he's already got a child" Lan Zhan thought. 

"I was just joking I found him left all alone on my way to the place where I'm staying at right now" said Wei Ying. 

"That's a relief" Lan Zhan sighed with satisfaction. 

Wei Ying chuckled. "Uncle uncle big brother said that he secretly.... " (Wei Ying closes his mouth) "yuan was about to say something didnt he" asked Lan Zhan. 

"Not at all he just the wanted to say that I secretly saw you buying rabbit lanterns. Right Yuan?" Wei Ying asked. 

Yuan smiled and nodded. 

"Here you go take this Yuan I'll give you one of lanterns" said Wanji. Yuan hugged Lan Zhan's legs and said"thank you bigger brother". "What's that! . You started calling him bigger brother" exclaimed Wei Ying. "bigger brother gave me a toy so I will call him bigger brother from now on" said Yuan. "don't mind him Lan Zhan he's just 4 years old" said Wei Ying. Lan Zhan smiled and went back with them carrying Yuan on his back. "Aww look at that cute family. A cute child with the father carrying him and the mother carrying All the stuff" people exclaimed. "Lan Zhan they are talking about us right" Wei Ying whispered. "Just ignore them" Lan Zhan said smiling. 

When they reached to Wei Ying's house Wen Ning was already waiting for them. "Oh wow Lan Zhan even you are here." he said looking at Wei Ying and giving him a slight smile. Yuan went to Wen Ning's lap and the four of them had a great time chit chatting. 

"so wuxian what were you doing all these days?" asked Lan Zhan. "oh don't be mad when I tell you but I have been practicing some charms to help me save myself from danger and they are deadly" Wei wuxian replied. 

"you know that you shouldn't be practicing deadly charms. What would happen if they give you some kind of an affect?" Lan Zhan warned. "I know but I should know to protect my self right I cannot wait everyday until you come and save me" the words came out od his mouth before he could even think what he had said. "I... didn't mean that..." stammered Wei wuxian "I understand" said Lan Zhan,giving him a quick smile. 

"Wei Ying, Jiang Cheng had hired soldiers to search for you in the whole village. You should try to stay away from his sight,because..he has ordered that if they see you you should be killed." 

Wei Ying was shocked that his best friend had ordered for him to be killed. 

The next day Lan Zhan left Wei Ying's place and went back to his place. 

" See you later bigger brother "said Yuan waving his hand towards Lan Zhan. 

" Don't worry he would not wave back at you..."said Wei Ying when Lan Zhan started to wave back.

"oh.. he did wave back" he said to himself. 

The ghost General who was trying to stop the small grim from his mouth couldn't hold it back anymore. "OK I have to say this but I feel like you like him a bit more than a good friend"he said." w..hat do you mean than a good friend? " Wei Ying asked him." To be honest master I think you love him" he said with a sly smile😏. 

"ah ah stop with all that first let's go buy some stuff at the market." he said as he packed his things and wore his hat.He looked at the table and saw there was a music sheet kept for him which was from Lan Zhan. It was a music to calm ourselves. He took it with him and left. 

They left Yuan at home with his grandmother and went to the market to buy some items needed for making flutes and weapons. 

When they came back they couldn't find Yuan. All they saw was red stains of blood which was all over the floor. It looked like someone was dragged. "Wen Ning Yuan.. Yuan is gone. Didn't we leave him here. Nor his granny is here. Why is there blood on the floor?" saying this Wei Ying fell down to the floor crying "Yuan did they just kill you Yuan...". "master he might be hiding somewhere let me check for you." said Wen Ning as he went around the small house and came back empty handed. "master I think they..they took him" he replied. "what do mean they took him can you not see the blood stains on the floor they had killed him and his grandmother." he said Wei Ying burst out in anger and his hand was covered in black smoke which was coming from his flute. "no master you should not let the evil take over you" Wen Ning shouted as Wei Wuxian took his flute to his hand and ran outside the door. "no no he should not go to that place there are many soldiers searching him he shouldn't go there without his hat" thought Wen Ning as he saw his master returning to his village. 

As Wei Ying came closer to the village he could hear the soldiers talking"I heard that Wei Ying's senior sister was also killed because of Wei Ying himself. If he had returned to his home there would have been no killing of unwanted people."said one of them. Wei Ying's anger could not be controlled any longer there was black smoke all around him" And what if I kill you'll for killing Yuan and senior sis would that be fair enough" Wei Ying shouted as soldiers came towards him carrying swords with them. And there was Lan Zhan surprised by the look of Wei Ying's black smoke. "No Wei Ying don't let the power take over your anger" he whispered to himself. 

As Wei Ying's anger grew more and more stronger the sky became as red as it could be and Wen Ning came trying to fight for Wei Ying's life. "Master I would die more than sieng you die" I he shouted as he sprang toward the soldiers with his sword killing each and every one of them. Lan Zhan thought that the flute he was holding gave him the power of the black smoke bit no.. It was the rock which he had kept inside his pocket for so long. It had given him the power of the black smoke. "look at him he surely has the black rock, yes kill him so we can get it. I heard that if we have it then no one can beat our clan" everyone were shouting. As the black rock fell from Wei Ying's pocket, all the clams were fighting for it and the Many people were killed, some of the people's heads or legs were cut. Everyone were fighting to have the rock when Wei Ying said "huh I never knew you'll were this aggressive would you'll kill one another just for a black rock. Just because eyou get more powers from it." he asked. But no one listened instead they shouted "kill Wei Ying, kill yiling patriarch, kill him and whoever tries to come in our way." When the fight of the clans grew fiercer and more aggresive that they started to stab anyone who tried to come at them. One of the clam leaders came running to Wei Ying with his sword pointing his heart and Wei Ying knew this was his last breath he closed his eyes without doing anything. When he opened his eyes he couldn't help but cry as he saw Wen Ning in front of him with a sword going through his heart. He could no longer stay still so he started playing his flute. There was blood everywhere as all the evil men figting for the black rock stopped at the sound. "Wei Ying you are dead today" they screamt. As they started coming towards him but then a loud sound was heard. It was Lan Zhan he was distracting the people saying that that was not Wei Ying but it was his charm of double image. The people hearing that continued fighting for the rock until all of them stopped. They screamt "Wei Ying is dead" they were all shouting in happiness hearing that he was dead. 

Lan Zhan I ran towards where Wei Ying was standing and when he looked down he could see Wei Ying smiling at him while falling from the cliff. "Lanzhan so you trust me don't you. You know that I don't kill people for no reason they killed Yuan and senior sis. I don't want to live anymore and I cannot live without both of them" he said as Lan Zhan was trying not to cry but he couldn't hold it any longer. "Wei Wuxian what made you think that I will not trust you?" he shouted. Wei Ying could feel the blood coming from Lan Zhans arms to his. "why are you getting hurt to save me leave my hand" he shouted,bit Lan Zhan couldn't do that. Behind them laughter could be heard as Jiang Cheng came towards them with his sword pointing at both of them. "Wei Ying are you trying to kill yourself? I should be the one killing you. You killed my father and now you are trying to escape death from my hands.Hanguan Jun are you trying to save him." saying this he pointed his sword at Wei Ying and was about to cut his hands off when Wei Ying pushed Lan Zhan away from him and he fell down the cliff of Nevernight." that bastard is dead "he said and went away leaving Lan Zhan tearfully lookin down at his beloved man falling from the cliff for his death." Lan zhan wait for me "was the only words he heard before disappearing into the darkness with a smile." I will wait for you Wei Ying "Lan Zhan shouted as loud as he could to make sure that Wei Ying heard it. 

Present day...... 

Mo Xuanyu woke up from his deep sleep by the sound of a very familiar instrument. As he looks around he could see that he was not in his house but he was at an inn where Lan Zhan stayed. He could see Lan Zhan playing his instrument by his side. He could also see his mask kepr at the side of the table. "he found me" he thought. 

"it has been 16 years".... He began. Lan Zhan had stopped playing the instrument by now as he heard Wei Ying speaking. "that was a long time. Had you never searched for me Wanji." he asked. "the night you fell from the cliff I went to search for you from the time you fell but I couldn't find any thing nor any blood or anything alive down there." he replied. Wei Ying was satisfied with that answere. "you would have thought how I came back alive and why was it after 16 years that I had shown myself" he began. Lan Zhan nodded his head. "when I fell down I had a piece of the black rock with me. When I opened my eyes I was in a lonely place and I thought that I was dead. But no I wasn't I was in Nevernight standing where the war between the clans took place. I could see all the dead bodies. That's when I decided that I needed to hide from people until I found the right person whom I could revenge for. As I felt you carrying me here I came back to myself and then I knew that I was actually alive all these years but I was just finding the correct time to show myself to you but you found me.Lan Zhan how did you find out that it was me even with my mask? " he asked" the tune you played to calm down Wen Ning earlier was the same notes I had written for you if you remember it."he answered. 

Wei Ying smiled and said" oh I see that's how you found me. But I didn't know that it was written by you"

"yes it was" Lan Zhan said smiling. 

As they were talking someone came running towards them shouting. Wei Ying put on his mask as soon as possible when he heard them coming. "Hanguan Jun, Hanguan Jun the gates of masters house closed on their own with master inside and we and were hearing loud noises coming from inside. I think master is in danger" It was a disciple from the Lan clan. Wei Ying put on his mask and went with Lan Zhan to help him open it. Their were two disciples who were already trying to open it but they couldn't open it "careful Sizhui. Wei Ying I may need some help now" said Lan Zhan holding the disciple.

It took around two minutes to open the gates and Wei Ying and Lan Zhan ran inside with the gates closing as soon as they got in so the disciples could not follow them. 

When they went inside they could see the black stone itself trying to take over the master. "I'll play the instrument and you play the calming music" said Lan Zhan as he sat down to play it. 

As Wei Ying took his flute out and began to play, the master who had been unconscious woke up and tried looking at the person playing the claiming music. But he couldn't as Wei Ying was turned the opposite way around. "Lan Zhan who is this person playing the flute so aggressively" he asked. 

"Oh no I think my flute had became older so the noise it makes sounds a bit different" thought Wei Ying to himself. 

As they had calmed the black rock Wei Ying went out of the house as soon as possible so, the master could not recognize him. When Lan Zhan came back he saw Wei Ying talking with Sizhui. 

"so senior Mo Xuanyu how did you meet Hanguan Jun" asked Sizhui. "That's a long story we were friends and we studied together. That's how I met him. We were in the same class" he replied. 

"Sizhui I heard that you were brought up by Hanguan Jun is that true?" asked Wei Ying. Sizhui nodded his head as Lan Zhan himself came to them and told Wei Ying "you can leave now Wei.... I mean Mo Xuanyu". "I may take your leave hope we will meet later Sizhui" said Wei Ying as he smiled at Lan Zhan and left. 

Later on that day as Wei Ying and Lan Zhan were walking together around a forest they heard some rustlings behind them. They thought that someone was following them so they stopped "Lan Zhan let me have a look" Wei Ying whispered as he tiptoed towards the bush. "whoa Wen Ning how come you are here" asked Wei Ying. Lan Zhan came towards them. "Wen Ning why is there blood on your hands and clothes?" he asked. "urgh..master there were many puppets roaming around the forest they were trying to kill you so I had to kill them before they kill you" Wen Ning replied. As they were talking Wen Ning asked Wei Ying "master don't you feel something between you and Sizhui." he asked ."i do feel like I have seen him somewhere but I don't know who he is" Wei Ying replied. Lan Zhan did not say anything teagrfding that topic. When they came to the village there was smoke all over the area and Wen Ning Ren towards the houses looking if there was anyone inside them. "master it's so strange not even one person is herein the village." he said. When out of nowhere there was the sound of arrows and swords clashing. When they went closer to the sound Wei Ying could see an arrow directly making its way to the disciples who were roaming searching for people in the village." Sizhui careful "shouted Wei Ying as he pulled Sizhui from the arrow which was about to go through him." thank.. you... senior Mo" stammered Sizhui. As soon as that happened they saw a traveller walking away from an old house.when they approached him they could see that's he was not a normal traveller but a puppet made by someone who now owned the black rock. He was trying to attack Sizhui when Lan Zhan shot him with an arrow which made him fall down and he was crawling. When they escaped from the puppet, they were all exhausted so they went to the village next to the village they were in. When they were walking trying to find a place to stay, Sizhui told them "Hanguan Jun my grandmother lived in a house not far away from here, if you are okay with it we can all stay there" Lan Zhan refused to do that and he started panicking. "my father has a house here we can all manage their until tommorow" Lan Zhan replied. And they all accepted it 

After a thirty minutes of walking they at last reached the house Lan Zhan mentioned. "this is it. We will stay here for one night and we'll leave tomorrow morning when all the smoke has dissapeared and everyone are back". Although all the disciples were soon asleep, Wei Ying could sleep so he took out his flute and was about to play it when Lan Zhan stopped him. "Wei Ying you should not play that old flute. Here you go I made you a flute when we were on our way" he said giving Wei Ying a newly made flute which Wei Ying loved as it looked very neat and it was beautifully carved. "urgh.. Thanks Lan Zhan" he said as he began to play the music which Lan Zhan had given him. Lan Zhan began to play his instrument as well which made a very pleasant sound together. 

Wen Ning who was looking at them from a distance couldn't help but smile. And Yuan was with him" Ghost General Wen Ning I don't know why but I feel like I have met you and senior Mo somewhere. And whenever I am with either senior Mo or Hanguan Jun I feel safe just bieng around them. Even though I have never seen senior Mo's face without his mask I still feel very familiar with his voice". Yuan suggested. 

When Yuan went to sleep and after about an hour or so Wei Ying and Lan Zhan had already returned to their room. Wei Ying pulled out a pot of wine. "Wei Ying do you still carry a pot of wine where ever you go" asked Lan Zhan. "what can I do Lan Zhan I cannot sleep peacefully without having a pot of wine" Wei Ying replied."how about you join me this time. Aren't you a man you should be able to handle wine right" he asked. 

"I'll try just once. But I am sure I will not be able to handle it" said Lan Zhan. "here you go" said Wei Ying handing him a glass of wine. And just as expected Lan Zhan could not handle It and he dropped asleep on the table.

"aye aye Lan Zhan I cannot carry you to the bed this time also. You have to wake up now.Lan Zhan looked woke up and looked at Wei Ying. He was all drunk and he was looking like a cute little rabbit pouting at Wei Ying." aww do you even know how to pout? " asked Wei Ying. But all got was a stare from Lan Zhan. 

"Lan Zhan may I ask you something?" he asked and Lan Zhan nodded. 

"do you like anyone?" He asked. Lan Zhan stopped staring at him for a moment and looked all blank. "do you like any girls? What about the ghost generals sister do you like her. Although I know that you have only met her once do you like her?" he asked. "no... Not her" I Lan Zhan answered him. 

"what about any other ladies don't you like any of them?" he asked. "none" Lan Zhan answered him. "what about.....me, do you like me atleast?" Wei Ying asked waiting for a reply. 

"you...are....my....Wei Ying" he replied. "what! You like me? Why did you never tell me that" Wei Ying asked. He was shocked as well as happy with that answere. "I like... you and only.. you" Lan Zhan replied falling into a deep sleep. 

Wen Ning who was listening to their conversation smirked as he knew that "I knew it they both like each other but they never said it" he thought to himself. Wei Ying carried Lan Zhan and back to his bed and went out side and for some fresh air. 

Seing Wei Ying coming out Wen Ning ram towards his own room. 

The next day when they all woke up Lan Zhan came to Wei Ying and asked him "Wei Ying was it you who took me to my bed" he asked "yes and you won't believed what you said me" he said. Lan Zhan's eyes opened wide. He knew he had said him something which he had kep to himself. "you said you love...." Lan Zhan knew that he had said it and he felt ashamed. "sorry I was drunk I didn't mean anything I'm not going to drink again" he said. "you said you love rabbits" Wei Ying chuckled. "Don't you love rabbits. I know you love rabbits there is a lot of them near you house" he said. Lan Zhan was relaxed that he did not say anything personal. But little did he know what he had said last night. 

When they all reached their village they could see that all the villagers had returned home and the smoke was gone, so they went back to their own houses. When Wei yinhmg opened his door he could see Jiang Cheng waiting inside for him. "finally you came. Wei wuxian I'm not going to leave you alive today. I don't know how you escaped from dying that day but now you are going to die here. Remove your mask now" he shouted. "what will you do if I don't remove it" Wei Ying answered and went away from there. 

He could not go into his house as Jiang Cheng was waiting for him inside, so he went to Lan Zhan's place and asked him if he could stay with him. "yes of course you can" he replied. "Lan Zhan do you know where they had kept my sword. I remember Jiang Cheng taking it from me before the war started at Nevernight. 

" One of the master has it. From the time you left, your sword got locked it shielded itself and no one could unsheild it. So one of the master took it and now it's kept safely in his house." Lan Zhan said. 

"I think it's better for me to get it back because I want it to protect myself. I cannot rely on my flute everytime. Are you coming with me to bring it back Lan Zhan?" he asked. 

"I better come, if not you will not be able to come back alive" said Lan Zhan. So they went together to the house where Wei Ying's sword was bieng safeguarded. When they approached the house they found out that there were many soldiers around the house. 

"I'll distract them. You can go in and when they are not looking at the door" Lan Zhan whispered. "have you'll seen someone wearing all white around here."he asked one of the soldiers. When he was talking Wei Ying tiptoed towards the end of door and got inside. As he entered the house it was all blank and empty." what where is the sword? He thought. 

He checked all the rooms and there was no sign of the sword anywhere. When he was searching his foot slipped and he found himself in a different chamber where he saw something unexpected. There was a table in the corner which was covered with a black cloth. When he opened it there he saw the head of Jiang Cheng's father. "so this is the person who killed his father" he thought. Since there was nothing else in the room, he decided to leave the room by a small window at the corner. When he at last found himself outside the house he Ren towards Lan Zhan saying "this man is the one who killed Jiang Cheng's father, I saw the head of Jiang Cheng's father in a secret room. And my sword is not there " since Lan Zhan trusted Wei Ying. He knew that he was telling the truth. They both went away but as they about to go Jiang Cheng came towards them and shouted" Wei Wuxian we meet again! "All the disciples came running to the spot and they were pointing their swords at Wei Ying. 

" Wei Ying, if you are you going to remove your mask in front of everyone here that will be great so everyone knows who is hiding behind that mask"he said. Sizhui ran towards them saying "he did not kill your father. How can you say that he killed your father without any proof?" 

"you little disciple don't come and argue in the elder's argument." saying that he pushed him away. 

"Attack him everyone! " Jiang Cheng shouted. As Wei Ying did not have any weapons with him, he pulled out the sword which which was with Jiang Cheng. When he pulled it everyone became quiet. "no way he iss the Yiling Patriarch look, he unshielded the sword." they shouted with fear. 

"You are right only Wei Wuxian himself can unsheild this sword,which I had bieng carrying ever since he had dissappeared, so this is him. See I said you'll it was him." said Jiang Cheng. 

"Jiang Cheng I didn't kill your father it was this man right here" he said pointing to the owner of the house in which he saw the head of his father. "stop making excuses only you can play the flute in the village, there was the sound of flute when my father was killed." he said. 

Catch him and bring him to me! "he shouted. The guards ran towards him and Lan Zhan held Wei Ying by the arm and tried escaping. But they were stopped by the other guards who sorrounded them." Hanguan Jun stop helping him he killed my father. Are you going to remove your mask or not Wei Ying? "he shouted. 

" Since you want to see my face so badly let me remove my mask for you"wei Ying said as he removed his mask. Everyone went away from him as they saw Wei Ying behind the mask. "everyone look he is Wei Ying the person who killed my father and escaped death" Jiang Cheng exclaimed. 

"see he even managed to fool Hanguan Jun" he said. 

"ha yes...." started Wei Ying when Lan Zhan said "No I knew it was hi. But I can assure you that he did not kill your father. He was with me in the woods when you father died it was not him." 

"Yes he's telling the truth, even I was with him when that happened" said Wen Ning coming out of nowhere as usual. 

"Do you have any proof that it was this man right here who killed my father? If you have any, then I will trust you" said Jiang Cheng. 

"You'll will have to follow me for that" said Wei Ying. When they reached the master's house, the master started saying "what are you talking? How would there be any evidence inside my house" he stated panicking all of a sudden when Wei Ying took told Wen Ning "there is a secret room under this house, can you take us all there?." yes master" Wen Ning replied. When all the people from the clan had enters into the secret they were shocked to see the head of Jiang Cheng's father. "Wei Ying so you are saying me that all these days it was this man right here who killed my father and I believed the people when they said it was you?" he cried. "Yes and this is the proof you wanted to see. Can you at least leave me alone now" Wei Ying said and left the room. 

Jiang Cheng dropped to the floor saying "I'm so sorry Wei Ying. I'm sorry that I didn't believe you as a best friend. It's all my fault for not believing you." he cried "Lan Zhan and Wen Ning caught the man who killed Jiang Cheng's father and handed him to Jiang Cheng himself." I'm not going to spare your life. You made me want to kill my best friend and become evil "saying that he took his arrow and directly killed the man right in his heart for all the misunderstandings he had made for the last sixteen years. 

Sizhui ran out followed by Lan Zhan and Wen Ning." Big brother! "he cried." it's you. I am Yuan. I am your dear Yuan. "hearing this Wei Ying stopped. He turned to look at Sizhui" how can that be possible wasn't Yuan dead? How could he come back alive. No way this is a dream right? Lan Zhan pinch me please I want to know if this is a dream. " Lan Zhan smiled and told him" when I was returning to my village that day I saw many soldiers approaching the village which you were staying at. So I decided come help you.

But when I entered you were not there and they had already killed Yuan's grandmother and they were about to kill Yuan when I tricked them by telling them that I had seen you in the nearby village. I'm sorry I did not say it to you earlier. But please understand that if Yuuan had been staying with you he would have been dead already."Lan Zha told him. 

Yuan hugged Wei Ying and told him that he missed him ever since he left." so that was what I felt when ever I was with you and Hanguan Jun. I knew that i had seen you somewhere. And I still remember the secret you had told me when I was small" Yuan chuckled with tears in his eyes. "Aye aye Yuan you better not say that you to any...." before he could stop him "Hanguan Jun, big brother once told me that he secretly loves you" he whispered. 

Lan Zhan smiled at Wei Ying who was too embarrassed to even look at him. "so what huh? when Lan Zhan was drunk he once told me that he loves me" he told. Lan Zhan was the one who was embarrassed by now. "wait you told me that I said I loved rabbits" he whispered into Wei ying's ear. "I lied to you" Wei Ying whispered back. 

"yes even I heard him saying that" chucked Wen Ning. "Wen Ning how come you always love hearing people's gossip" wei Ying asked. Wen Ning started smiling. "OK ok stop it now you are making me feel embarrassed by now" said Lan Zhan. "don't you both love each other why are you'll embarrassed? You'll should be happy that he loves you as much as you love him." Wen Ning stated.

From that they all parted ways. The next day Jiang Cheng came to Wei ying and asked him "Wei Wuxian will you please forgive me one last time?" 

"don't worry I had already forgiven you" saying so the two best friends hugged each other. "OK ok that's enough can you please get away from him now?" Lan Zhan told as he entered his room. "wait why are you jealous or what Hanguan Jun that I am hugging your man?" he asked. "wait who told you that he is my man?" Lan Zhan asked. "of course the whole village knows about it as you'll were talking outside" he said laughing. 

Yuan and Wen Ning came running into the room. They came to Wei Ying and told him "we're very sorry that we talked a bit louder that the whole village heard it. But aren't you'll happy that you'll don't have to hide it from anyone? Wen Ning asked." That's kind of true said Lan Zhan as pulled Wei Ying close to him. They both looked at each other and Jiang Cheng, Yuan and Wen Ning couldn't help but be jealous of their pure love.

2 years later

" Master! Master! I'm back" shouted Wen Ning, who had been away for almost 2 years. Wei Ying came running towards him "wen Ning you could have come earlier. I was waiting for you. I'm so happy for you."

"Master you will not believe what I'm going to say now" said the ghost General. "let me guess. You have learnt to protect yourself" chuckled Wei Ying. "master I am married" Wei Ying was so happy for him that he hugged wen Ning in joy. "ya how come you did not invite me?" he asked. "sorry master I got to know that you were very busy to come all the way to my place" he said.

"you will not believe what I'm going to say now" Wei Ying smiled and said. "did you get married or what" wen Ning asked sarcastically. "woah! You are great at guessing. How come you knew it" Wei Ying told him.

Wen Ning was surprised "master when did you marry? How come you did not invite me" he asked. "wen ning I'm sorry I knew it was hard for you to leave all your duties as the ghost General. That's what I did not invite you. But you can meet my wife now. She's in the bed room" wen Ning was very excited to see his master's wife that he ran towards the room. But as he entered he did not find Wei Ying's wife. The only person in the room was Lan Zhan. He was cleaning his instrument. "master where is she?" Wei Ying pointed his finger towards Lan Zhan and said "here he is. Meet my husband Lan Zhan" wen Ning was happy and excited at the same time.

"master when did this happen?" he asked. "it happened after you left maybe after a month you left" Lan Zhan looked at them and smiled. "oh welcome Wen Ning" he said. "uncle Wen Ning, I suppose that your master has already told you something important" Yuan suggested. "of course he told me" wen Ning said him.

 And together they went into the the house, Chatting and enjoying. And they lived in the village happily with their partners. And their love will continue for eternity.
