Summary
Wèi Wúxiàn never arrived at Jīnlín Tái, leaving Jīn Zixūn and his army waiting at Qióngqí path until Jīn Zixuān showed up and dragged them all back. Some days after, word finally reached the Great Clans of the mysterious explosion. Jīn Guāngshàn immediately sent cultivators to investigate.

Posted on a tree just in front of the shimmering ward was an edict that forever changed the jiānghú.

Summary
After the events at the Mo Manor, Wei Wuxian seeks purpose for his newly-gifted life in becoming a rogue cultivator. Still dead to the cultivation world, disguised from old affections and acquaintances in a new appearance and mannerism, he travels the world, fighting monsters, solving cases, inventing talismans…and, somehow—do not ask him, he’s the most baffled by it all—becoming a father to children whose fates happen to intertwine with his. Amid this blissful chaos, he reconciles with past grievances, retraces old paths which the Heavens did not permit him to walk in his first life, and reacquaints himself with golden eyes, the laughter of a raddish-boy, purple lightning, and golden-clad youth.
Or, a Post-Mo Manor, Rogue Cultivator AU! where Wei Wuxian remains "dead" for a bit longer, relishing the world in Mo Xuanyu's body.

Summary
“I can’t stay here. Please don’t make me!” The words dragged themselves out of Qin Su's chest, feral and half-bloodied by her grief and fear.
“A-Cheng is leaving tomorrow,” Jiang Yanli said. “You could go with him.”
Or, Qin Su in Lotus Pier.
