Love Jiang Cheng all you want, but don't fall for the false narrative that he was a good person cause he wasn't. He might have been arguably a good sect leader or a good uncle. But you can't claim to be a good person when you actively and directly push someone to choose to let innocent people die for your own selfish reasons.

You can tell by how Jiang Cheng and Lan Zhan both reacted to Wei Ying asking for help. Jiang Cheng responded by giving him an ultimatum, him or them. Lan Zhan just stayed silent. He also desperately wanted to protect and help Wei Ying but there was no answer he could give that wouldn't end up hurting the remnants. He was still unwilling to sacrifice certain things to offer the help wei ying needed but he didn't make his own flaw Wei Yings problem.

#mdzs #lan zhan #mo dao zu shi #jiang cheng #i would be able to appreciate amd love the character more if some fans stopped insisting he was just a victim #on that note the rest of the clans can go fuck themselves too #like theres a reason i dont hve a lot of sympathy for lan Xichen #the grave he fell into at the end was one he dug himself whilst in denial of what it was #what i appreciated about wei ying and lan zhan is that they were genuinely torn up by the moral dilemma #they made a lot of mistakes but they tried #mine
