"Wei Wuxian !!!!!!!" Lan QiRen's shout echoed throughout Yunshen Buzhi!

Lan Zhan was in the library like every first part of the day and was leading the morning reading!

What else could his soul mate have done to make his uncle scream! Because there was no other word to describe her uncle's behavior: he was screaming !!!! Strangely, a smell of burnt hair came to tickle his nostrils!

Some time earlier:

Wei Wuxian was slowly emerging from his night in the arms of the love of his life. It had been two weeks since they had united their lives in front of everyone. Lan Zhan had new surprises in store for him every night. He hid his game well because he was inventive!

When he had told him, his soul mate had told him that he had had 16 years to think and imagine everything he could do to him if fate allowed him to find him ! He was just putting it into practice.

He had to admit that his partner was vigorous and that he sometimes had trouble keeping up with him! But it was enough for him to remind him of his word so that Lan Zhan calmed his ardor and became again a soft and attentive lover.

A few days after their union, Wei Ying had gone to find his new brother and asked him how he could be useful. He hated doing nothing! Xichen told him to come back the next day and think about his question.

When he came back, Xichen told him about some of the relatively undisciplined disciples! Unlike his uncle, who thought that only punishment could bring them back into line, Xichen wanted to try a different approach. He was counting on his new younger brother to help him!

On this occasion, he told Wei Ying, some events that had happened during his absence and in particular the rebellion of Lan Zhan against their uncle and the elders. Wei Ying found it hard to believe that Lan Zhan, always so calm and composed, could have blackmailed him and demanded that he be left alone !!!!

This was another thing he had discovered about his soul mate. He had lived without him for 16 years. He had made his own experiences and developed his own character. Wei Ying had noticed the changes as soon as he returned, but after all it was normal, at that time they were only teenagers. Now they were men!

He thanked fate for giving not only the same face to Mon Xianyu but also about the same age!

His class, according to Xichen, was not undisciplined, they were just resistant to authority and unfortunately for them, they were born in a clan that advocated discipline and obedience!

"Lan Zhan is a failure too!" thought Wei Yin!

"Brother Xichen, how many are there?"

"Six! You will have a small class. I'll leave it up to you to choose the subjects you think are best to teach them!"

"I already know what I won't teach them!"

"What's that!"

"The history of sects! When I came back to life and we were at Mount Dafan, the 1st thing I noticed was the lack of practice of your disciples!!!"

"What do you mean?"

"They hadn't even realized that it couldn't be a monster since it was attacking living spirits! A monster would have seized the spiritual energy of the dead. There was just at the foot of Mount Dafan a Wen cemetery where many cultivators were buried!"

Xichen smiled slightly.

"I was right to give them to you, we'll try a new way of teaching. If it works, maybe we can apply it to other classes! The only thing I'm asking you to do, Shidi, is to avoid Uncle and any... how can I put it, situations that might provoke his anger. He's just starting to accept your presence here, so let's not spoil the good work you've both been doing!

Wei Ying raised his right hand 3 fingers pointed to the sky, keeping the second behind his back.

"I promise, I'll be careful not to provoke him... intentionally!" Xichen did not see the crossed fingers of his other hand, this one being hidden.

They had arrived in front of one of the classrooms. Whispers could be heard inside as well as some laughter. Which in the Lan Clan was unacceptable behavior. The "undisciplined" were waiting for their new teacher.

"Brother, would you allow me to introduce myself? Join us when things have calmed down!"

"Calmed down?"

"You'll understand when the time comes!"

Wei Ying walked along the wall of the classroom, but instead of entering through the door, he went around the building and entered...through the window. He moved forward cautiously without being heard by his students. He could hear them giggling. He stood behind a curtain and watched them.

There were 6 of them, and they were between 12 and 16 years old! Teenagers !!!! It was obvious. What tricks did they have in store for their new teacher? Wei Ying looked around the room with his eyes... just above the door 2 big water bubbles were spinning happily waiting for their target to pass through the door! With a smirk, Wei Ying used one of his talismans and sent it at the water bubbles. The bubbles split into 6 and flew...crashing down on the heads of the 6 disciples present!

They stood up surprised and soaked! Wei Ying came out from the back of the room and stood in front of the study master's table with his hands behind his back.

"Sit down everyone! Did you really think you were going to teach an old monkey like me how to make faces!".

At these words, all the disciples turned to him. Their faces were filled with amazement.

"I asked you to sit down, so... SEAT!"

They all obeyed without question! They were soaked, but they had asked for it! It was quiet. Lan Xichen entered. The smile he'd worn when he'd seen how his younger brother had turned the tables on his students had almost turned to laughter at the discomfited faces of the teenagers. He came to stand beside him.

"Disciples, I present your new teacher, Han Guang-Jun's husband, Wei Wuxian.

The disciples stood up and greeted them, then knelt down and bowed.

"You can get up and sit at your work tables." Then turning to Wei Ying, he said.

"I leave them to you Brother". Then whispering in his ear.

"Good luck, you're going to need it, but I see you can respond to their vivid imagination!".

Lan Xichen greeted Wei Ying and left the classroom. Wei Ying saw in his eyes, that he was happy. He probably thought that the coming hours and days would be eventful. And he was not totally wrong!

"Well, we've got a lot of work to do, you're really not very good with talismans. When I was your age, I wouldn't have been caught and I would have placed a sphere of water in front of every entrance to the room. So we'll start our lessons with the study of talismans and combat and defense strategies! Even if I prefer practical training, you will nevertheless have theory, so be prepared to... suffer!" I said with my smile that Lan Zhan described as "demonic".

That's how teacher and students got to know each other. In the evening, Wei Ying told Lan Zhan about his day. He was totally excited and after dinner he went to his soul mate's desk to prepare for the next day's classes.

The next day, Wei Ying found a second desk next to his husband's desk. When he questioned him, Lan Zhan replied:

"Each to his own".

"You are not a lender!"

"We will be more comfortable to work"

Later in the evening, Lan Zhan came to stick against his husband, but Wei Ying pretended to be asleep.

"Are you sulking?"

"In bed, don't you care if we occupy the same seat?"

Lan Zhan's embrace tightened around him and his hands roamed over his body.

"No, otherwise I couldn't do this."

As usual, Lan Zhan knew how to find the gestures and caresses to make him melt. Wei Ying did not sulk for long and let himself be carried away by the passion of his lover.

The next day when he woke up, the 2 work tables had disappeared and a bigger one was sitting in their place! He smiled, Lan Zhan always found the right compromise for the situation.

Wei Ying got ready and went to join his class. Today it was practice in the use of "water" and "fire" talismans in real combat.

But nothing went as planned.

Why this was the day Lan QiRen had chosen to come and inspect his class will always remain a mystery!

Why did the water talisman burst? Why Qiang Lei lost his balance and at the same time the fire talisman in his hand ... and why it was stuck on Master QiRen's goatee ..... Chance? Fate? Fatality?

Although he was quick to react, when the talisman was activated, the hairs on Lan QiRen's beard began to scorch and Master Lan's stentorian voice could be heard in YunShen Buzhi shouting the name ....

"Wei Wuxian !!!!!!!".
