Nightless City is chaos incarnate. Jiang Yanli lies cradled in her brother's arms. A shadow lunges, its sword aimed at Wei Ying's heart. A flash of white—Lan Zhan appears, shielding him with his own body. The blade pierces his chest. Blood sprays across Wei Wuxian's face. Lan Wangji takes a step back, letting the steel sink deeper. His gaze, fixed on his beloved, holds only tranquility. His knees buckle. His body crumples to the ground.
