Zhao Yunlan opens his eyes with a gasp. He blinks rapidly as the dark covers his eyes. When the room finally seems to turn bright, Zhao Yunlan sees Shen Wei staring at him worriedly.

Zhao Yunlan suddenly remembers the weird dream with triple Shen Weis and confusing confessions.

What if Shen Wei had been in Haixing when Team Ye Zun slandered Chu Shuzhi online?

The Envoy is back, he’s alive! Everything is better—brighter—as it should be. Regrets on Chu Shuzhi’s part would be an utter betrayal, unworthy. Chu Shuzhi knows the score. He was only ever first aid for Zhao Yunlan. Only a prop to keep him going. They’d never talked about what they were doing, and Zhao Yunlan’s heart had always been faithful. He’s worn the Envoy’s pendant twenty-four/seven.

Shen Wei reached across and gripped Zhao Yunlan’s shoulder to anchor him in the here-and-now. He shouldn’t try to stop the time travel. He couldn’t. But letting Zhao Yunlan go was a steep price, even for the integrity of all of history. Wherever you go, I’ll be with you, he thought, willing it so, though there were no guarantees. Who knew what the Hallows would do?

Certain people have highly distracting habits

The first time Da Qing meets Zhao Yunlan, he's twelve years old.

"Oh, Shen Wei," the man said. "I promise you I'm real. Just - slightly out of time. Again."

Shen Wei blinked rapidly, but still didn't drop his dao. "Out of time, you say."

A wink and a smirk, with a familiar warmth behind it - Kunlun had teased him just like this. "What, you thought a time traveller could only travel once?"

Who else could she ask? Not Zhao Yunlan, who was part of the whole mess. Not the elders of any of the three tribes, when they were the ones who needed convincing the most. Not the Haixing minister, who had every interest in fostering good relations with the Yashou but no experience and no standing with them yet.

Once the initial clean-up is over and Dragon City’s authorities begin reasserting control, Chu Shuzhi isn’t surprised by Ye Huo bumping his shoulder as they leave the SID for the night and saying, “I’m not joining the SID.”

Zhao Yunlan gets an intriguing delivery and Shen Wei listens in.

Shen Wei receives a parcel from ten thousand years ago.

Zhu Hong backed away from the portal. It might not be Li Qian at all, but a lookalike. It might be a trap. She gathered red Snake power in her hands. “Tell me what happened to you.”

Little did Zhao Yunlan know that Shen Wei’s power can affect someone from afar. 

"It hurts to be something
It's worse to be nothing with you"

“Oh I forgot to tell you, Yunlan, you are going to get married next week!”

Zhao Yunlan nearly chokes on the bath water. What the hell? He climbs out of the bathtub, poking his head out of the bathroom door: “Excuse me!?”
