It's a surprise to everyone when it's Wei Wuxian who cultivates to immortality among the cultivators of his generation, despite his weak core. And it's a surprise to no one when it's Jin Ling who cultivates right along from cultivators of his generations.
Granted, there were only very few cultivators left from Wei Wuxian's original generation. The only likely candidate dedicated enough, alive enough, were Lan Zhan and Jiang Cheng. Of the two, one only wished to stay by his side while the other found excuses to run away from him.
A/N: You don’t need to read the previous part, but it’s recommended.
The first time Jin Ling sees his jiujiu with that blank expression on his face, he’s five. His jiujiu is standing with a faraway expression on his face, his face devoid of any +
smile. Jin Ling doesn’t know why he does it, but he feels the urge to go and shake jiujiu. And so, he does exactly that. He goes and grabs onto jiujiu’s silky robes.
Sometimes, the goddess of destiny presents some people with an offer to forever change the trajectory of their fate. Some accept the blessing for what it is and some do not. From those who have accepted, some have even altered
the direction of one's fate without realizing the casualties that may have resulted from it.
Of course, the chance to change destiny only presents itself to few individuals that have had misfortune befall them yet still choose to honor the guardian and keeper of said destinies.
