Wei wuxian thought ' 4, 889 years and i will meet lan zhan 'he was watering the plants for his garden but then he sensed a presence infront of his ward/gate . He teleported there and opened the gate to see , 7 people with white not expensive robes with some white ribbon on their forehead

Wei wuxian thought ' lan clan disciples' and asked " excuse me?"

The disciples jumped and looked at him with a sad yet trustful gaze and the one in the front center extended his hand and on it , is a letter.

Wei wuxian received the letter and opened it and read the letter

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Wei-shifu

As you open this letter , im already dead . I am really thankful for the knowledge you have given to me and my friends . I hope you would meet my reincarnation sometime , thank you for everything shifu

- Lan an , Sect leader Lan

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Wei wuxian dropped the letter in shock and recovered himself and looked at the 7 peoples who's heads were bowed down in sadness and mourning

Wei wuxian sighed and rubbed his head and smiled looking at them " thank you for sending me this letter" he said

Another disciple said " no need to thank us , Our sect leader had always told us to never fear his Shifu" .

Wei wuxian smiled and laughed " yes , yes " and he smiled painfully and asked " when is his funeral?"

A disciple said " tomorrow at 1:00 pm"

And wei wuxian nodded and sighed " you can go now" he said and the disciples bowed to him in respect and said " yes....."

Wei wuxian " just call me grandmaster" and thought ' im so old yet so young'

The lan disciples brightened and said " yes grandmaster" .

Wei wuxian said " tell your martial brothers and sisters to call me grandmaster okay?"

The lan disciples said yes and went back to gusu .

NEXT DAY

Wei wuxian teleported to cloud recessess and saw the same gate from the last timeline of his

A disciple gasped seeing him.

All lan an's relatives and disciples of gusu lan was told by lan an that his shifu wears mostly red and black , his hair was tied in a red ribbon in a Half-ponytail , he had a handsome face and silver eyes with a flute and a sword.

They even were shown the painting lan an painted . And on the painting was his shifu and they posted the very giant painting in the library pavilion.

The disciple bowed and said " grandmaster , you have arrived"

Wei wuxian smiled and bowed back but the disciple stopped him so wei wuxian straightened up

The disciple escorted wei wuxian to the coffin of the lan sect leader .

It was inside the main pavilion , and when Wei wuxian went inside , he saw all his 4 disciple that were alive and 1 disciple that was deceased

All his disciples bowed seeing him and including his (lan an's) wife .

Sect leader's nie , wen , jin and jiang were smiling and the atmosphere was lighter than the mourning atmosphere

Wei wuxian smiled back " my disciples , its very nice to meet you again" his gaze turned to the coffin of lan an and went there , his family members and wife gave way for him and he nods at them in thanks and when he was at the side of lan an's coffin. He looked at his corpse

Lan an's face was old already , but he still have that joyful aura even if dead and his robes for burial were the white robes with the forehead ribbon

Wei wuxian remembered when he first met lan an , he wore white robes with a white plain ribbon on his forehead and after being his disciple , Wei wuxian knew he wanted to make his own clan so he gave lan an , a forehead ribbon and the design was like lan wangji's forehead ribbon , it was a plain white ribbon with cloud designs and a cloud silver pattern on the center . Lan an cried seeing the forehead ribbon and decided to wear that everyday since that day he always wore it.

Wei wuxian sighed wistfully and smiled at the corpse sadly and said " an-er , i hope you rest well , your shifu promises you , he would find your reincarnation and take care of you" and went to the table for important guest .

The jiang sect leader said " in honor of our shifu , wei...." His disciple looked at him for permission to tell his name and wei wuxian nodded

Jiang sect leader continued " in honor of our shifu , wei wuxian. We decided to make a schedule. every 1 week of each year . Our disciple would take care of our shifu's mountain and plants . Only 10 chosen disciples from each sect are allowed to go to the mountain to take care of the mountain and on each year it would be another batch of 10 chosen disciples to show our thanks to our shifu ."

The sects leaders nodded in agreement so naturally the disciples agreed with the elders of each sect .

The sect leader nie said " to our shifu " and the other sect leaders raised their cups with alcohol and looked at wei wuxian and wei wuxian smiled happily and poured alcohol to his cup and raised the cup with alcohol "gan bei" / (cheers) and they drink the alcohol .

Wei wuxian refilled the alcohol and said " to one of my disciple lan an" and raised the cup and sect leaders copied him and poured the alcohol down not drinking it.

They talked about somethings and disciples from sects with stars in their eyes showered Wei wuxian with questions which Wei wuxian answered.

Wei wuxian thought wistfully ' im thankful to be back in time , lan zhan ill wait for you. I have to be patient ' and downed his cup with one go
