What method did you employ to manipulate these nefarious creatures?
[ Almost immediately, the smile disappears from your face and you say nothing. Lan Wangji simply stares at you. ]
Answer me.
[ The ghosts start to become restless, but when you glance at them, they back off into the darkness. ]
If I may ask... what happens if I don't answer?
[ Lan Wangji quickly grabs at you, but you evade and take three steps back. So this is how it is. ]
Lan Zhan, we've just been reunited after so long and you're already trying to arrest me. That's not nice, is it? [ Lan Wangji grabs at you a few times, but you evade him every single time. It pisses you off. ] Here I thought we could at least be considered acquaintances! Isn't it a tad heartless of you to attack me over a simple disagreement?
[ The two of you continue to go back and forth again as Lan Wangji attempts to grab at you, but you raise your flute to block him. ]
Return to Gusu with me.
[ All you can do is laugh, even if it hurts. Of course he wouldn't try to understand. Of course. ]
Return to Gusu with you? Whatever for? Ah, right... I forgot. Your uncle hates unorthodox heretics like me. You're his favorite pupil, so of course you're the same. Haha. No thanks.
Condemnation is not my intent.
[ Jiang Cheng stands against him too, and now it's the two of you against Lan Wangji. He loses in this. ]
Wei Ying, you will eventually have to pay the price for cultivating along a deviant path. There have been no exceptions to this rule throughout history.
I can afford it.
That path injures the body. And more so, one's nature.
I know best whether or not it harms my body and by how much. And as for my nature, I'm the master of my own heart. I know what I'm doing.
[ The two of you start to argue in full, a back and forth about how well you know one another. Once you tell Lan Wangji that it's none of his business and that it doesn't matter how you kill the enemy, Jiang Cheng finally puts the final nail in the coffin of this argument—Lan Wangji is the last person Wei Wuxian will ever go back with. That shocks Lan Wangji into silence, who stands back.
Wen Chao finally rouses as you and Jiang Cheng look down on him. All you can think is that this is quite the reversal, especially as you kick him so that he faces Yunmeng. Jiang Cheng hums, the two of you contemplating what you'll do.
You suddenly remember that Lan Wangji is still there, and you turn around. ]
The following scene may not be suitable for Lan-er-gongzi's eyes. Won't you please step away for a moment?
[ There's no politeness to your request, but Lan Wangji makes his leave anyway. The scene fades away slowly as Wen Chao's shrill screams pierce the night. ]
