---> ''"..." After a moment of silence, Wei WuXian replied, "I'm sorry. I broke my promise."''

---> ''Jiang Cheng cried soundlessly, but tears had already streaked across his face. To cry in such an unsightly way in front of others was almost impossible for him in the past. But every single moment that passed from now on, as long as the golden core remained in his body, as long as it could still revolve, he’d forever remember this feeling.''
---> ''He choked, "...You said I’d be the sect leader and you’d be my subordinate, you said you’d help me your whole life, you said you’d never betray the Yunmeng Jiang Sect... You said so yourself."''

---> ''He choked, "...You said I’d be the sect leader and you’d be my subordinate, you said you’d help me your whole life, you said you’d never betray the Yunmeng Jiang Sect... You said so yourself."

---> ''He choked, "...You said I’d be the sect leader and you’d be my subordinate, you said you’d help me your whole life, you said you’d never betray the YunmengJiang Sect... You said so yourself."

---> '''Jiang Cheng:''' You said that when I became the Sect Leader, you’d be my subordinate, you’d support me forever and never betray the Yunmeng Jiang Sect... You said those words yourself.
* Lan Wangji, in his grief after Wei Wuxian died, decide to go and experience everything that Wei Wuxian experienced, including using the Wen branding iron on himself on the same location where Wei Wuxian was branded
** Drink the wine he had drunk, experience the injuries he had taken (喝他喝过的酒，受他受过的伤)
--> Grow the Sizhui he had grown

--> ''Wei Wuxian spun around to dodge the attack and laughed, “Fine, fine. I knew since the start that we’d have to fight a real fight like this one sooner or later. You’ve always found me disagreeable no matter what. Come on!”''

** This gets worse when you take in consideration how in the past Wei Wuxian was excited about meeting and caring for his beloved shijie's son but with everything that happened, he not only missed out on watching Jin Ling grow up but also carries the guilt of being partially to blame for his parents' death.

* At the second siege of Luanzhangang, in what is also a CrowningMomentOfAwesome, the spirits of the Wen family that lived there prior that was killed during the first siege, rose from the grave to protect and help out Wei Wuxian and co. in dealing with the hordes of zombies that surrounded everyone.

* Wei Wuxian's breakdown in chapter 78 when Lan Wangji attacked him with Bichen, trying to stop him from playing with Chenqing.

---> [-'''Lan Wangji''': Wei Ying!-]
---> [-Although he shouted the words, any sane person would be able to tell that Lan Wangji’s voice was clearly shaking. However, right now, Wei Wuxian had already lost his judgement. He was already half-mad, half-unconscious. All evil was being augmented by him. He felt that everyone loathed him and he loathed everyone as well. He wouldn’t be scared no matter who came at him. It wouldn’t matter no matter who came at him. It was all the same anyway.-]

** After narrowly escaping the place, with the help of Wen Ning (not that they know that), Wei Wuxian tries to reason with Jiang Cheng and prevent him from seeking revenge just yet, when so many odds are against them, but this only seems to exacerbate Jiang Cheng who furiously blames Wei Wuxian as the reason the Wen sect is targeting them, which then turns into a heartbreaking speech about how Jiang Cheng has always felt less than his adopted brother and how he was not powerful enough to do anything to protect their family.
** The sight of the Wen sect sigil being displayed over the flaming ruins of the once peaceful Lotus Pier. It shows just how brutal and uncaring the Wen sect has turn and just how far they are willing to go.

* While trapped in the cave with a man eating monster and injured, Wei Wuxian tries to strike up a conversation with Lan Wangji but, inadvertently reminds the other of the partial destruction of Cloud Recesses, the frail state his father was left in after the attack and the fact that his brother had to escape with part of their library, with no one having a clue where he could be nor if he was safe, which prompts the always stoic Lan Wangji to cry, something that shows just how much these events have hurt and marked him.

** Even though they were rescued from the cave and were returned to their families, Lan Wangji's father passed away during those days which means that neither Lan Wanji nor Lan Xichen were able to properly say goodbye.

** Heck, their entire relationship. While it was an arranged marriage, it probably wasn't nice for Ziyuan to hear that her husband was in love with another, even if that person fell and marry someone else. To add insult to injury, the child of that woman is taken in and treated as if he was a child of the main house while ''her'' son, even if he's recognised as the heir, is treated cooly by his own father. Fengmian may have tried to honor the memory of his beloved friends, but in the process he ended up unintentionally harming the rest of his family. It is implied that Fengmian had tried to reach out to his wife in recent years to improve their marriage but, in the end, there is no information regarding whether or not he managed to reconcile or even say goodbye to his wife before their deaths.

* The death of many good characters i.e. Jiang Yanli, Wen Qing

* Lan Wangji played Inquiry often after Wei Wuxian's death hoping to hear from him

** Even though they were rescued from the cave and were returned to their families, Lan WangJi's father passed away during those days which means that neither Lan Wanji nor Lan Xichen were able to properly say goodbye.

** Yu Ziyuan sacrifices her life to send both Jiang Cheng and Wei Wuxian to safety, even ordering Zidian to entrap them until they arrive to a safe zone.
** Prior to all of this, Yu Ziyuan and Jiang Fengmian had a rather heated discussion where Ziyuan threw to her husband's face all her grievances and rumours regarding his blatant favoritism for Wei Wuxian and his coldness towards their son. Fengmian decides to walk out of the fight and go on a mission, saying nothing to his wife even when she angrily declared that if he left, then they would never speak again.

** What's more was the spirit of the old granny recognizing Lan Yuan for who he was

** This hits even more when you take in consideration how in the past Wei Wuxian was excited about meeting and caring for his beloved shijie's son but with everything that happened, he not only missed out on watching Jin Ling grow up but also carries the guilt of being partially to blame for his parents' death.

* When it's discovered by the sects that Wei Wuxian has in fact returned, there are several reactions from the characters that range from bewilderment to anger but the one that hits the most is Jin Ling's. This kid lost both his parents in circumstances related to Wei Wuxian and has developed a great hatred towards him as a result, however, in the past couple of weeks prior to the reveal, Jin Ling had grown unknowingly close to Wei Wuxian while believing him to be Mo Xuanyu. He, alongside Lan Sizhui and Lan Jingyi, became the first friends Jin Ling ever had in his life, which made the apparent betrayal all the more painful, especially when you take in consideration how in the past Wei Wuxian was excited about meeting and caring for his beloved shijie's son.

--> Grow the Sizhui he had grown

* When Jiang Cheng, Lan Wangji, and the audience find out the truth behind Jiang Cheng recovering his golden core.
