After his death at the hands of the cultivation clans, he is resurrected thirteen years later in the body of a lunatic. Reunited with Lan Wangji, a former classmate from the Gusu Lan Clan, he must navigate a world that still fears and despises him.

The mysteries of Wei Wuxian's former life and the true events behind his downfall begin to surface, threatening to unravel the fragile peace of the present.
