Lan Yu was a direct descendant of the Gusu Lan Clan and Lan Qiren's cousin.
On the streets of Yiling, he picked up Wei Ying and let him climb trees, catch fish, and steal rabbits, allowing the Lan Clan's rules to grow from two thousand to five thousand.
At a street corner in Kuizhou, he scooped up Xue Yang, whose fingers had been crushed by a carriage.
Later, Xue Yang became the youngest sect leader in the cultivation world. Every year, he returned to Cloud Recesses for the New Year, bringing along a cultivation partner named Xiao Xingchen.
In a small town in Yunmeng, a boy knelt outside a pharmacy.
Lan Yu went over, helped him up, paid for his medicine, and slipped him a piece of malt candy as he left.
That boy was named Meng Yao. He later became Jin Guangyao.
Years later, when Jin Guangyao's patricide was exposed at Golden Carp Tower, the entire hall erupted in an uproar.
Lan Yu walked into the great hall and removed the soft whip from his waist. “I will deal with Jin Guangyao's crimes.”
He struck him more than a dozen times, each blow devoid of spiritual power.
When he was done, he said, “I've punished him. This matter ends here. Anyone who pursues it further will have me, Lan Yu, to answer to.”
The hall fell silent. No one spoke, and the matter was settled.
Wei Ying said, “Uncle Yu taught me that right and wrong are up to you, praise and blame are up to others, and all that matters is having a clear conscience.”
Xue Yang: Everyone in the cultivation clans knows Uncle Yu always protects his own.
Jin Guangyao: He's a good man.
When will we write about them being together?
