#and WWX still managed to miss the fact that gods and Ghost Kings exist

[featherfur]

Lowkey been thinking of a crossover of MDZS and TGCF where Xue Yang became a ghost obsessed with returning Xiao Xingchen and A-Qing’s souls and it actually starts to work except Hua Cheng really doesn’t appreciate some upstart fucking around Ghost City and murdering his ghosts to practice piecing them back together so Xue Yang has to run but ends up running into Wei Wuxian and Lan Wangji and try to keep himself from being killed again and it only works because he’s waving a decently patched together soul of A-Qing who’s cursing up a storm that could put Qi Rong to shame.

Xue Yang finally admits that Hua Cheng managed to get Xiao Xingchen’s spirit pouch from him when he bolted because Xue Yang was in the middle of stitching some pieces back together and now Wei Wuxian can’t just leave XXC in the hands of anyone because that’s his martial uncle/brother (?) via mom and also because in general he and LWJ are good people.

They don’t even really know who this ‘Ghost King’ is because they really don’t bother with ghosts that aren’t hurting people nor do they associate with gods except on accident so they follow Xue Yang to Ghost City, on a magic leash connected to WWX who’s having maybe too much fun seeing what he can do with a fully formed powerful sapient ghost instead of the demonic restless spirits he normally handles.

Except Hua Cheng does know Wei Wuxian he just thought that surpreme died within months of appearing so he’d never thought of him again when he was told he got torn to shreds by his own power after his reason to continue got murdered (e.I. The Wens) but now he’s extremely confused because uh “you? Should not be alive.” “Yeah I get that a lot”

The most powerful supreme Hua Cheng ever met (beyond himself) that rose to Supreme level in three months and then preceded to fuck off and die, is apparently now alive again? Hua Cheng has dealt with some shit but it’s been like 400 years since Jun Wu and he’s just not doing this alone also Xie Lian has a sensor for danger and shows up anyways when Hua Cheng is trying to interrogate Wei Wuxian on how the fuck his shattered soul was pieced together perfectly, even better then when he’d actually been a supreme, and returned to a body.

(Xue Yang is magically leashed by Hua Cheng as well just for funsies because Hua Cheng is not done with him yet)

They finally manage to get to the reason they’re here, when A-Qing starts yelling from Lan Wangji’s sleeve. Hua Cheng is more than willing to let A-Qing stay and fix herself because he thinks this is funny and he has a tiny soft spot for kids and Gege likes her, but A-Qing wants to protect Xiao Xingchen and that’s her Reason for existing.

Xiao Xingchen’s spirit pouch is finally returned by Hua Cheng who quite honestly just wants to kill Xue Yang and move on with his life as a married man, and Xiao Xingcheng is just existing and only reacts to say he’s sorry to A-Qing and a very firm “No.” when Xue Yang asks to have him back which leads to a pouty and grumbling Xue Yang but the only person who cares is Xue Yang so he gets ignored. (A-Qing does eventually asked to be handed to him after he’s gagged just so she can insult him but settles down after two hours of yelling because she does need his help to be while again and he can help Xiao Xingchen but as soon as she gets feet she’s kicking him in the face)

Now Hua Cheng is even willing to let Xue Yang go if WWX just fucking leaves because, yes even when WWX was a Supreme Hua Cheng still out ranked him in power but if he could reach Supreme that fast Hua Cheng doesn’t want him anywhere near Gege on principal but Xie Lian is soft on people in red who are devoted to their husbands and are down with murder so Hua Cheng can’t just kill them. So they can just leave please

Except apparently Xie Lian knows Xiao Xingchen because they got confused for each other on more than one occasion and met a few times before his eyes were carved out and Xie Lian wants to help his friend and the only way to fix him is to find Song Lan, except no ones seen him in a while and Hua Cheng does NOT know how that translated to ‘let’s go on a cross country hunting trip for someone who very well could be dead because my husband got mistaken for a 17 year old cultivator twice and apparently adopted him like every other slightly trying to be good person he meets’ but it’s not like he’s going to say no to spending more time with Gege

Lan Wangji has to come to terms with the fact that his husband was straight up a Supreme Ghost and nobody noticed that he was dead and also with the fact that while he didn’t really want to be immortal now he has to be because he doesn’t want his husband to be lonely if he dies and returns to being a ghost. Wei Wuxian and Xie Lian think that’s the most romantic thing every, Xue Yang and A-Qing want to die, Xiao Xingchen is scolding them for being rude but also thinks it’s sweet and Hua Cheng realizes that he’s both a glorified baby sitter and that he actually respects that and wants to see how it turns out.

Idk how but Feng Xin and Mu Qing end up bothering Jiang Cheng just because I want to watch that shit go down for fun

#tgcf #tian guan ci fu #the untamed #mdzs #wei wuxian #Lan Wangji #Hua Cheng #Xie Lian #Xue Yang #xiao xingchen #I just think Hua Cheng can handle a little bit of grievance but also I think it’s funny if he accidentally gets attatched #and is just like ‘oh I get why Gege likes adopting random people this could not be funnier’ #of course he’d kill them all in a half second without remorse for Xie Lian but luckily for them they like Xie Lian too! and it’s mutual! #crossover #this is more amusing if it’s a modern au where WWX and LWJ are in fact immortal #and WWX still managed to miss the fact that gods and Ghost Kings exist #LWJ is indeed aware of them he just gives no fucks about anything that isn’t Wei Ying
