I am torn between laughing and crying. 🎭 😭😂

Hell yeah!

I would happily take your dark meat if we were neighbors. Lol

Loins of turkey, eh? That seems on point, as I just learned today that "turkey" is actually a shortened term for "turkey-cock."

Thank you, Merriam-Webster.

I know, controversial, right? Lol

We all do. 🙂‍↕️ Lol

As is right and proper. 🤣🤣

Hahaha! Oops. That... might not actually be relevant to the story. Lol But it's just there as a fact that she could crush those puny men like ants beneath her silk slipper.

Right? I think everyone has a secret "Madam Lan lives" agendum, but I threw in "and she's more powerful than everyone else combined." Lol

I was gonna quietly disagree and snub my nose at this video if Duke Su had been excluded. Luckily, this person has taste. 🤣🤣

Same! Lol I intended it to be an ambiguous/open ending, but I'm having additional thoughts.

wwx glances over and is surprised to see a beautiful woman sitting near his bed. She's resplendent in silks and jewels. She lowers her sleeve from her mouth and smiles at him.

"Hello," she says as she's joined by a man who looks startlingly like a Lan. "Welcome to the heavenly realm, son-in-law."

But he doesn't stay dead.

When he opens his eyes, he's met with a heavenly sight - literally. As he slowly sits up to look around, he notices that the aches and pains that had plagued him since the loss of his core are gone, and his meridians are filled with qi.

Someone laughs softly nearby.

In the end, because he does not fight to kill, lwj is subdued and taken away. A small mercy granted him is that they leave wwx be.

Everything after flows accordingly: lwj is whipped and secluded, the Wens are killed, wwx hides away A-Yuan, and wwx falls during the siege from all the sects.

"No nonsense. We have completed our bows."

The Lans are even more outraged. "We will not acknowledge it!" many of them cry out.

"You may not, but the heavens will," lwj calmly replies and draws Bichen. (No one yet knows just how true those words are.)

The Lans attack. lwj defends his husband.
