THEY DID WHAT

there’s a lot of differences between mdzs and the untamed that don’t make sense but i think the one that makes the least sense is lan zhan, of all people, becoming the leader of the cultivation world. lan zhan. the man who struggles to say more than 2 words to anyone ever. he’s the leader??

i mean i get it, they couldn’t wangxian get married and wander the world together, but idk i feel like even having someone take over as the leader of the cultivation world just wouldn’t happen at this point in time. people would be extremely wary about anyone being in control after the wen clan and then jin guangshan and then jin guangyao. and lan zhan would have no interest in being a leader. idk it’s weird?? there were other ways to end their storyline that didn’t end in them marrying or in lan zhan becoming the cultivation leader.
