Lan Wangji had come out to practice sword forms, but everything changed in an instant when the clouds split open and a woman begins to fall from the sky.

He leaps onto Bichen and flies toward her as fast as he can. He is too far away to catch her, but he has to try to help somehow.

He reaches her as she collapses and jumps from the sword. He drops to his knees beside her and takes her wrist.

Spiritual energy pours forth from him in a rush into her meridians, attempting to restore balance and strengthen her so that she can heal.
