In which everyone travels back in time from the first siege to the beginning of Sunshot and have to deal with the problems and the chances that brings. WWX would like to resign, thank you. A bit crack-ish fic, I couldn't help snickering the whole time. @ladyunderthemolehill
The Line Between Good and Evil
Summary: Right after the celebration of the successful siege against Yiling Laozu Wei Wuxian, suddenly time reverses. Back to the Sunshot Campaign.
Cultivation World: "....." Uh.Oh
Wei Wuxian: "Ha-Ha"
You go play your own Sunshot Campaign Game, but I, Wei Wuxian, will quit!
Lan Wangji: "Seconded. Hanguang-Jun shall also delete his account."

Wei Wuxian feels her blood run cold.
Yu-ayi’s right. He really is going to choose me, she thinks. Oh, no. Oh, good Heavens, no!
She nearly bursts into tears on the spot; but just as her eyelids begin to sting, she remembers what her aunt said only two minutes earlier and breathes a sigh of relief.
The moment Huangshang lays eyes on you, he will know what choice to make.
In that moment, Wei Wuxian realizes that she can only be certain of evading the Empress’s throne if she ensures that the emperor never lays eyes on her at all.
Or: in the second year of his reign, Emperor Lan Wangji yields to the wishes of his ministers and holds a bride selection to find his future empress.
Rohanberry's excellent crossover with TGCF; LWJ, snapping and cutting down anyone in his way after WWX's death at the First Seige, LWJ ascends as the God of Vengeance. Meanwhile, a particular soul flame catches Hua Cheng's attention in Ghost City...

Summary: After Wei Wuxian falls to his death, Lan Wangji loses it. He slaughters anyone who dare gets in his way, he seeks blood to pay for the life of his beloved. Afterwards he flees to the Burial Mounds and finds A-Yuan, only to lose consciousness and ascend to the Heavenly Realm as the God of Vengeance. He tries to adjust to life in the Heavenly Realm, his only comfort is A-Yuan, who has thankfully been allowed to stay, and his new friend, Xie Lian, and he tries to learn how to be a god whilst grief still hangs heavy in his heart.
Meanwhile, in the depths of Ghost City, Hua Cheng discovers a Ghost Flame who reminds him of his younger self. The little creature refuses to pass on to the next life without his zhiji, he has decided to wait until they can find each other again. He decides to help that little ghost, who tells him his name is Wei Wuxian.

SasukiMimochi's heart-rending and beautiful post-First Seige Ghost!WWX fic, punctuated by their GORGEOUS art, get your tissues, and also your thinking cap, you're in for a ride with this one
by SasukiMimochi (@sasukimimochi)
Summary: Within the Cloud Recesses, the ghost of the feared Yiling Laozu haunts the Jingshi.
Only one person could see him- and he was just three years old.
Sharing a special connection despite memories lost, Lan Yuan spent no time adopting the ghost into his life, sharing mutual comfort with the hurting spirit. So when he was questioned for the red ribbon in his hands, carrying feelings of comfort and the man who’s face wept like a mourning mothers, he lied.
“Mama gave it to me.”
Through an inquiry session borne of concern, Lan Wangji discovers a lingering spirit. And so as the cultivators turn to Empathy, emotions and truths are revealed, while love and family blossoms in the wake of painful memories. One change at a time, one truth at a time, after forgetting what it was like to be themselves, the Yiling Laozu and Hanguang-jun learn how to face the world together despite the separation of death.
Dvasva's take on a particular Tumblr prompt: what if, after the Fist Seige, the Lan sect forced LWJ into an arranged marriage and, after being scorned continuously by her husband, LWJ's wife does the only thing she can think of to torment him, summon his evil rival WWX with the soul sacrifice ritual! That will show these stupid Lan! [I really love this story too! ~Mod Kay]
The Housewife's Guide to Causing Chaos
Summary: “Of all the rotten luck I could have!”
Outside, in between the gentle embrace of an imposing misty mountain and the caress of soft wind, stood the Cloud Recesses. It wasn’t a section that Wei Wuxian had recognized from his time in the sect, but the motifs of clouds and cranes in the buildings, the impeccable feng shui and carefully manicured paths, and the utter silence as the sect members slept peacefully, all burned themselves into Wei Wuxian’s eyes. No wonder the curtains were so firmly nailed to the walls! Any bit of demonic energy escaping the room could call down a veritable army of righteous cultivators! What sort of person in their right mind would dare to summon a spirit into their own body using resentful energy in the Cloud Recesses of all places? What kind of person would scoff so rudely at the Lan Clans most important rule, ‘Do not fraternize with evil?’
After being dead for four years, Wei Wuxian wakes up in a body he doesn't really feel comfortable with, in a place that he's sure wants him dead, and married to a man who surely hates him.
