Summary: Wei Wuxian looks at his parents, their eyes full of fondness, and love, just for him. "Oh my A-Ying, look at you," his mother cradles his face, caressing his cheeks with her thumb. He leans into the touch with a soft smile. AU where most the dead come back to life. Kay's comments: Dove into this story because I was craving some Wei Ying & his parents interaction and got so much more than I bargained for! Not only do Wei Ying's parents turn up, but also people like Jin Guangshan and Wen Ruohan. Most of the dead returning is a fitting description and now I worry about Jin Guangyao and Xue Yang also turning up suddenly. Brilliantly written and it feels very real. It's not a fluffy wish fullfilment story where everyone is suddenly friends and I love that. Excerpt: The vendor shows off a tattered notebook, bound by strings that are almost too clean. Wen Ruohan has seen enough and continues forward. Stall after stall, many claim to have something to do with the Yiling-Louzu. His inventions, his writing, and some even claimed to have parts of his body. But none, Wen Ruohan notices, are about himself. He had worked hard to build a reputation, his name would cause many esteemed nobles to shake where they stood. He had taken Yunmeng, Yiling, and even Gusu. But yet, the name Yiling-Louzu is on everyone’s lips. He curses himself for not looking deeper into the Yiling-Louzu's identity when he had the chance. But he figures if the rumors are true, then he can still find him. And since the Yiling-Louzu is an enemy of the cultivation world, Wen Ruohan decides to make himself a friend.
