Chapter 2: CH 2: WHY?!
Wei Ying was supposed to go to the Ghost Realm since he's dead, but he stayed in the mortal realm as a ghost spirit, he's not ferocious nor good, he's just a lone ghost wandering in the mortal realm. The reason is he had something he cannot let go, so he has to stay for a week in mortal time.
A week has passed since Wei Ying has died, Lan Zhan was mourning in the jingshi, he took out the things Wei Ying liked, and some things related to him. There was Emperor's Smile, the book of Lan Sect rules that he copied, the drawing of Lan Zhan who has a flower on his head. Those gave Lan Zhan the memories of the past, he was staring at the moon as it was dull to him. 'Wei Ying, I miss you, why did I not speak at that time? Why do you have to let go of your hands? It's all my fault.'
Wei Ying as a ghost heard Lan Zhan's thoughts, he immediately head to the Lan Sect, he didn't even care about anything he passed by as he was a ghost and nobody could notice him. He then came at the jingshi where Lan Zhan was, staring at the moon holding a painting of him made by Lan Zhan himself.
Wei Ying was still as he didn't expect him to keep those things, he looked at Lan Zhan and smiled, "Lan Zhan oh Lan Zhan, why did you have to do this? You never liked me in the first place, so why?"
Lan Zhan then spoke up his mind in a low voice and remorseful, "Wei Ying, sorry I only realized it when I already lost you. Wei Ying's heart fluttered when he heard it, he thought he was dreaming or just heard things, but as he saw Lan Zhan tearing up that he is unrecognizable, he knew he really said that.
Wei Ying, "Lan Zhan, thank you for letting me know that you feel the same, what a pity I'm dead." a tear escaped his eyes. He noticed it but what's the use he's dead. Just then he noticed it was 9, Lan Zhan was tired, he watched Lan Zhan until he fell asleep, he then went into his dream.
~DREAM~
Wei Ying, "Lan Zhan! Thank you for letting me know that you feel the same, although I'm dead physically, my soul would be by your side before I have to go to the ghost realm. Thank you Lan Zhan and remember, It's not your fault that I died, I willingly let go of my hand that time."
Lan Zhan ran to him and hugged him crying, "Wei Ying is it really you? Please come back to me, okay?"
Wei Ying hugged him back, "Lan Zhan, don't miss me too much, I'm by your side, but I have to go now." Wei Ying kissed his tears and stopped it from falling. He said, "Lan Zhan, don't cry it hurts me if you cry like that, take care of yourself Lan Zhan, I love you" After that Wei Ying disappeared with crimson red and black butterflies.
Lan Zhan then woke up calling his name and his hand in mid-air trying to reach something. He then sat up and shouted at his heart 'WHY!? Wei Ying, why did you have to leave, can I even see you again in this lifetime?' Lan Zhan then recalled what he said, ' I'm by your side' He looked at the things owned by him, he kept it under his bed at a secret compartment nobody but him and the soul Wei Ying knew. ~~
The next day, Lan Zhan woke up as usual and went to Burial Mounds, he searched for his body, but it wasn't found. So he came back to Gusu and it was already dark, his uncle, Lan Qiren asked where has he gone, he answered, "To Burial Mounds"
Lan Qiren was angered at the mention of that place, "Forget it, his body might be already gone, nobody has ever survived the Burial Mounds, there are no skeletons there for the dead, not to mention a dead body."
Lan Zhan was furious at the mention of that, he answered his uncle, "Uncle, how'd you know what's black what's white? Some people aren't necessarily bad when they are black or has killed people."
His uncle was infuriated by his reply, "Wangji, he's already dead, what's the use of defending him?"
Lan Zhan clenched his Bichen, "I believe in myself, and I believe in him. Sorry Uncle"
Lan Qiren was so angry that he spat blood, he then asked Wangji to meet him at the Wall of Rules tomorrow at 8 before the classes begins.
Wangji bowed to his Uncle and went to the jingshi.
The next day, Wangji did go to the Wall of Rules and met his uncle there, his uncle asked him. "Do you know you're wrong?"
Wangji answered directly, "I don't"
Lan Qiren then asked him to read the over 3,000 rules one by one. After that, he called a few disciples and whipped him using the discipline whips. 'Wangji, If I didn't punish you for hurting some elders by protecting him during the Burial Mounds siege. Do you know how many elders are hurt because of you?!"
Wangji answered, "33 elders in total."
Wei Wuxian on the side was shocked by it, Lan Zhan has never broke any rules before apart from drinking when I forced him to.
Lan Qiren was even angrier that Wangji answered that without any hint of sadness or knowing his faults. He ordered the disciples to hit him, the voice then became vague as he was pulled into the darkness.
