“If hell won’t save me, then you will.”
When Wei Wuxian, the Yiling Patriarch, is gravely wounded and close to death, he is saved by Lan Wangji’s younger sister, Lan Wangyou. She uses the Gusu Lan Clan’s secret art, “Moon Soul Guide,” to suppress the resentful energy raging within him, but discovers by chance that the child in her womb can purify evil. When the cultivation world lays siege to the Burial Mounds, branding the child an “evil fetus,” Wei Wuxian refines the Yin Tiger Tally with his own blood to protect the barrier, while Lan Wangyou’s Lan Clan bloodline awakens during her pregnancy, stirring strange phenomena between heaven and earth.
“Once, I wielded Chenqing and killed thousands. Now I hold your hand and save all under heaven.”
On the day the twins are born, resentful energy transforms into udumbara flowers, and hell becomes the human world.
