"What do you mean Young Master Wei?"

Lan XiChen was surprised by Wei Wuxian's analysis and there is no need so was Lan Zhan "A puppet?"

"That's right" said Xiao Zhan, he had already explained what he had to explain "This external disciple had contact with a source of negative power and now he is nothing more than a puppet, his spirit has been..." he fell silent.

He forgot what was his next line!

Shit, shit, shit, shit he was dead!

"Stolen spirit" said Lan WangJi almost provoking an attack on poor Xiao Zhan.

"He looks like a dead man" Said his body covered in spots (or were they marks?) Black and white eyes "He feels like a dead man but he still has enough 'vitality' to move and he cannot be considered as dead man, so it only means one thing "Xiao Zhan looked towards Lan Zhan who was next to him and then to the two older Lan" His spirit was stolen and he is being the puppet of that person or object. "

Both Lan XiChen and Lan QiRen looked at each other, perfectly understanding the background of Wei Wuxian's words.

There is only one person who can do this and he has been gathering power for years, he is now at the top of the cultivation world and his actions are turning more than one against him. Unfortunately, this person is the leader of the Qinshan Wen sect, Wen RuoHan. (Note of the translator: Yesterday I read an Omegaverse MDZS AU where Lan QiRen and Wen RuoHan were a destined couple, now I have confused feelings towards him 😅)

He has been getting rid of each of the sects that have tried to go against him and although they are against him, they are not all strong enough to stand up to him.

No one except Xiao Zhan.

Xiao Zhan: "Who? Me?"

[...]

The bell rang indicating that the first lesson would begin, Wei Wuxian along with his two siblings, they were about to enter but someone collided with Xiao Zhan. When he turned around, he saw that it was nothing more and nothing less than the peacock.

"Ayia, but it's young master Jin ZiXuan" he smirked "Ladies first." (Note of the translator: This line never gets old 😂😂😂)

After all, Xiao Zhan had to maintain Wei Wuxian's profile for a while and then gradually change, he already raised enough suspicions from the day he transmigrated, but he was able to fool young Cheng-Cheng. Although Xiao Zhan feared Jiang YanLi's maternal instinct more, she hadn't commented on anything, she was still just as kind and beautiful as ever.

This thoughtful bird didn't deserve it. (Note of the translator: Shijie is the best, I love her so much and completely miss her 😭😭, that's why I love AUs, she's always alive in them ❤️)

Jin ZiXuan snorted in mockery and when he passed by Wei Wuxian's side he hit his shoulder, completely unnecessary, Xiao Zhan thought.

"Stop being an idiot" Jiang Cheng scolded him as he pushed him inside.

"A-Xian, A-Cheng" and from behind Jiang YanLi tried to persuade his two brothers.

But the moment Lan QiRen walked in along with her older nephew, Zewu-Jun, the entire class fell silent. It was very clear the fear that Lan QiRen instilled, that despite his age, he was still feared by the younger generations.

Finishing the formal bows and the greetings Lan QiRen made a settlement giving way to the following events planned for today.

Jiang Cheng took a look to who was sitting behind him, praying he wouldn't do something stupid or be falling asleep.

However, he did not expect his brother, now being Xiao Zhan, to be so seriously sitting upright. No hair out of place, his hands in his lap and his eyes staring straight ahead. Jiang Cheng felt a bit embarrassed, he cleared his throat, and he too looked straight ahead. He was the future leader of the Yunmeng Jiang Sect, he must not make his parents lose face. (Note of the translator: Poor Chengcheng, when I first finished MDZS I was really against of how he behaved, but after reading it for the second time I kinda understood it, he had so much pressure over him and Madame Yu didn't help a lot ☹ )

A Lan disciple began introductions and then began to read the 3,500 Lan Clan rules, its principles, one by one. By the time it reached the twenty-two rule, the curfew, Xiao Zhan couldn't help but glance at Lan WangJi.

Laughing in his heart, Xiao Zhan mentally and physically prepared himself for the hard times to come soon, he had been remembering all the lines from this time. Xiao Zhan shed sweat, tears and blood (because he had cut his finger on the paper) so as not to ruin his magnificent future.

Xiao Zhan had a life plan and no matter what, he will not die and after sixteen years come back to life. After almost ten years in the entertainment industry and having for the first time the opportunity to be able to do something as incredible as this, although it has its drawbacks, he would definitely live a quiet and prosperous life.

"QinheNie Sect, introduce yourselves" said loud and clear the disciple who had already read the rules, he had already introduced the LanLing Jin sect and now Nie HuaiSang's was about to pass and then Yunmeng Jiang's would go.

Nie Second Young Master, Nie HuaiSang, made the corresponding references and gestured for his companion to come closer.

Xiao Zhan paid no attention to what Nie HuaiSang had to say, but rather to his companion, Meng Yao, and in the near future, Jin GuanYao.

He had to admit that the author created a very cunning, vindictive and sick villain (as if to have a son with his half-sister and then kill him), he could profess only pure love for his mother to the point of building a temple for her. (1)

Really admirable, how sad that this time he is not going to get away with it.

(1): People who haven't read the novel might not understand this reference, so I'll try to briefly explain it. In the novel things in Guanyin temple happen a little different from the series (The Untamed/CQL), anyway the important thing is that in TU the temple has the statue of a goddess, but in the novel the statue was built by JGY with the aspect of his mother and if I don't remember wrong, he was trying to bring her back to life with that (like how the statue of Dafan Mountain came back to life because people venerated her).
