@Aaydothaytch tl;dr, cause I realized my paragraph was getting way too big even simplified... Yun Yun and Xiao Yan had a thing goin on that was kinda brushed over for various reasons (novel has details) , but she was clueless on the misty sect attacking his clan, and when the conflict he had with nalan yan ran was resolved, they got involved again to press him for his retaliation, but framed him for being the cause. So now both sides don't want the other to exist, yun yun doesn't know what to do cause of said thing that went on, but their guy yun shan wants xiao yan dead for his killing the guy who is responsible for harming his clan severely and chased his dad until he mysteriously disappeared. Now we're here, that's about as simple as I can make it x'D
