Description
Links are NOT allowed. Format your description nicely so people can easily read them. Please use proper spacing and paragraphs.As the grandmaster of demonic cultivation, Wei Wuxian roamed the world, hated by millions for committing acts of necromancy. Overthrown by the powerful clans he had attempted to subjugate, Wei Wuxian is supposedly killed by his shidi in order to save the cultivation world.
Restored to life in the body of Mo Xuanyu, the local cut-sleeve lunatic, in order to exact revenge on his abusive relatives, Wei Wuxian quickly finds himself spiralling back into his old life when he’s taken away by the cold-hearted, stern, and ultimately quite boring Lan Wangji – who might be harbouring warmer feelings than contempt. Perhaps of the…romantic kind?
But despite his new beginning, Wei Wuxian begins to unravel a decade and a half long mystery that is set to undo the very fabric of the cultivation world as they know it.
A mysterious, action-packed thriller of a ride, this is a journey you won’t want to miss!

{post includes major spoilers be warned.} As spoken about a certain character, mainly an antagonist, I've noticed its really common in this fandom and I think its because of the adaptation changes made, or maybe cuz fanon is really running wild too. BUT first, Adressing {Wei Wuxian's relationship with Jiang Wanyin.}
Golden core- JWN lost his golden core, whether he is a monster or not is a different debate and has nothing to do with the core transfer (some people would argue torturing innocent people for 13 years in madness would certainly be considered inhumane, but okay). I don't know about the adaptations but the novel certainly makes clear that even after finding out JWN got WWX's core, he did not even once think or consider that 'WWX shouldn't have given his core to him, ' (and before you say 'its wwx's pov' its not, multiple time in the novel its third person, we even get to read other characters thoughts, including JWN), JWN agreed to regaining a core, and from his perspective, it was WWX giving up an immortal's favour for it (baoshan sanren) its already a pretty big sacrifice in their world, also repeating the point, not once is he angry/sad for WWX giving up his core, he was more angry that now he couldn't find a reason to hate Wei Wuxian without feeling guilty and plenty other reasons, but not regret of getting WWX's core.
'Wei Wuxian not defending Jiang Wanyin' I mean, what did he not defend him from? He protected him with his life until JWN decided to throw him to the side, as for the reason why people say JWN did not care about WWX is because ultimately JWN became leading cause for WWX's death, he turned his back on WWX when he needed it, multiple times WWX is comforting JWN when he feels let down/jealous, protects him, gives up his core (or in this case, a literal 'immortals favor' to help JWN get his core back), helped build YMJ back up, but JWN chooses his hatred for the Wens over WWX, he leads the siege against WWX, he began the whole 'wwx is our enemy' thing, teen jwn would have cared about wwx, adult jwn did not, so there's that.
"WWX doing things for fun that leads to consequences" WWX is very much a literal genius in the text, making inventions etc his every action is almost calculated, even under shitty conditions he thrives to do the best until the entire literal cultivation world turns on him, JWN did not 'clean up his mess', if you're referring to Cloud Recesses Days, WWX is the one who takes punishment for 'getting drinks' when everyone else involved gets off free, does JWN step up to clear things up that 'hey we were all partying'? Nope, and its fine, they're teens, no one else does either, but please don't claim things that didn't happen in the novel (if you're talking strictly about the adaptations, mention it plz)
Seriously, I think we have plenty good reason to consider WWX really does have it bad/worst, orphaned and roaming streets at a young age, fighting dogs for food for goodness sake! And it really left an everlasting fear in him, a 5 year old fighting hungry dogs so much larger than him to survive, JFM rescues him surrounded by dogs and bite marks I think around when he was a 9 yr old.
Gets taken to a sect, (he isn't formally adopted so there's the limbo of his uncertain position as the head disciple, as in he had no one he can turn to) no one really stops it when a literal kid is whipped a freaking spiritual weapon! Its mentioned YZN would often whip him and have him kneel for hours! His parentage is constantly insulted, he's brought back to the sect but JFM doesn't care enough to give him a room to sleep, clothes he gets are too big to wear etc.
I'm not going to get into their little kid fight because they were kids so, kids do s*upid things, so JWN wouldn't understand why WWX would be scared of dogs, but damn WWX gets taken to the sect only for the sect heir to lock him out the room, saying he will 'call the dogs!' causing him to climb up a tree in fear, and then breaking his leg.
Then the war happened and dude gets plotted against, saves innocent people including the old granny and a toddler from a labour camp! So evil! Called to his nephews birthday celebration? It was an ambush with 300 archers! Oh and they also removed the dead from the ground so you can't do shit! Damn an accident happens while defending himself? He's so evil! Send over WN and WQ and we'll let the rest of the 50 people to live! After the 2 surrender themselves, WWX goes to collect their ashes to learn haha no they were still planning to attack and kill the people, he confronts them, they freaking shoot an arrow which barely misses his heart and lodges into his rib cage instead, then he retaliates, so evil! JYL runs onto the battle field and dies saving him, he killed his sister! And at the point WWX snaps, dont blame him tbh, do you notice a pattern? Many would consider this quite horrid things he went though there. Everyone nowadays throws around 'morally gray wwx' too much, fellas, is it bad to defend yourself? It was literally 1 man vs 300, 1 man vs hundreds of sects gathered, sheesh.
"classic romantic loyal lover", thier relationship didnt start right off the bat, Lan Wangji does not stand by Wei Wuxian when he was condemned, he was conflicted about his feelings and did not come in term with them until it was too late, until Wei Wuxian died in his first life, its this wrong that he reflects on, regrets and he doesnt mourn eternally, he moves on, as in the novel he goes around helping people in need, whoever they may be, mainly people 'big sects' don't help since their problems are considered 'trivial' to them.
'yes man' after a long long time of character development, he's not going to let go of the second chance life handed to him, wwx is right there, alive, in front of him, why will he not be a yes man?
I'm not even going to address the character comment, he's awesome, so much development, he's concise in his words, he seems aloof but he cares a lot, he sat in snow for hours waiting for his mother to open the door even if it never did, lxc needed him after the temple fiasco so he stayed and comforted his brother, and lets not even talk about his love and care towards wwx, their love is so sweet and tender.
'wwx is wwx' he loves his soul not the body, he realised that, he loved wwx in his original body and he still loves him in the mxy body.
We weren't showed his thoughts I agree, would have loved to see more on that.
ONTO the core reveal, I root for him, I cheer for him, that was such a badass moment, but also so sad.
Wen Ning risked his life to get JWN out from under WC, Wen Ning returns Zidian and his parents' bodies, (a really big dept which JWN answers by abandoning them when they need help), he's also watched JWN treat WWX horribly and abandon him, JWN was someone he saved who showed the gratitude by leading the siege on Wen Ning's innocent family, (JWN knew they were innocent, he went up the mountains, made a remark 'its just the weak, elderly, women and children' with a sneer) Is Wen Ning not allowed to have his anger? I feel like WN should have done more, this core reveal happened when JWN had driven WWX into a qi deviation, and was going to attack LWJ who was carrying WWX away, (not to mention his homophobic rants) WN had enough of his bs, he really too nice, many have expressed they would have yeeted JWN into oblivion after this lol, if he had done to them what he did to WN and his family. (Dont try the 'but WN harmed JWN's first' its not true either, WN and his branch had 0 blood on their hands, they stayed out of war, if anything WN and WQ saved them on the run when their sect was burned down.)
