Family Banquet - Part Three is the one-hundred and sixteenth chapter of Mo Dao Zu Shi.

Synopsis []

Wei Wuxian cannot resist knocking on the empty bowl to catch Lan Wangji's attention as he pretends to drink the soup. When he is about to lean against Lan Wangji, however, a harsh cough from Lan Qiren stops him.

Lan Qiren scrutinizes Wei Wuxian throughout the bland main course, but eventually fails to find fault in his behavior.

When Lan Xichen begins to speak, however, he mixes up two night-hunting locations. Eventually, Lan Qiren intervenes and concludes the banquet.

As Lan Qiren summons his nephews away for a scolding, Wei Wuxian attempts to seek out the Gusu Lan Clan juniors. However, they suddenly turn around and leave.

Wei Wuxian ventures to meet them in a secluded piece of woods. The juniors return to find him, and Lan Jingyi explains that Lan Qiren forbade them from speaking to Wei Wuxian. Wei Wuxian finds this humorous, and jokes that Lan Qiren must feel "like his well-nurtured cabbage was dug up by a pig."

When Wei Wuxian inquires after Wen Ning, Lan Sizhui says that he is hiding in a secluded part of the mountain, waiting to be found again the next time they night-hunt. Lan Sizhui then reveals that they encountered an angry Jiang Cheng during their last night hunt.

Apparently, the juniors met up with Jin Ling on their night-hunt. Wen Ning trailed the Lan juniors while Jiang Cheng trailed Jin Ling, and the two ran into each other when the hunt turned dangerous.

Wei Wuxian asks how Jin Ling is doing, as Jin Ling has been appointed Clan Leader of the Lanling Jin Clan. However, the clan is in disarray, Jin Ling is young, and many members have various self-interests. Ultimately, Jiang Cheng used Zidian to temporarily secure Jin Ling's position as Clan Leader.

Lan Jingyi says that Jin Ling's temper is better, though he still calls him "Young Mistress." Lan Sizhui scolds him for calling Jin Ling this name behind his back, but Lan Jingyi retorts that he does so to his face as well.

Wei Wuxian returns to the Jingshi where he grows hungry, but even after nine, Lan Wangji has not returned. When he finally does, Wei Wuxian pretends to dead on the floor, only to awaken the moment he smells spicy cuisine.

Wei Wuxian is delighted, believing the food to be that of the Hunan cuisine restaurant in Caiyi Town. Wei Wuxian tells Lan Wangji that he, Jiang Cheng, and sometimes Nie Huaisang would eat there during their time in the Cloud Recesses, before teasing Lan Wangji for never accepting his invitations to join.

Presuming that Lan Wangji violated the rules for him, Wei Wuxian teases him before complaining that the soup earlier made his mouth bitter. Lan Wangji kisses him to "balance" the taste.

Lan Wangji tells him to eat first, and then they can do it. Wei Wuxian jokes that he will eat the cabbage first.[1]
