childhood
Lan Wangji was the second-born of Qingheng-Jun and Madam Lan. His mother had killed one of the Lan clan members, and his father married her despite familial protests, and constructed buildings for them to be secluded from the others. Lan Wangji was only allowed to see her once a month. She passed away when he was young, and not understanding why he could no longer see her, he would wait outside her door every month at their designated time, and continued to do so into adulthood.
At the beginning of the story chronologically, Wei Wuxian, Jiang Cheng and Jiang Yanli have come to the Cloud Recesses to be instructed by the Lan family. They've misplaced their invitations, and so they are refused entry. While setting up camp, Lan Wangji lets in Jiang Cheng and Jiang Yanli, though Wei Wuxian has left to retrieve items. Wei Wuxian sneaks in, and Lan Wangji fights him on a rooftop.
After that, Wei Wuxian works tirelessly to try and become Lan Wangji's friend, even though it's perceived by others that Lan Wangji detests him. In fact, Lan Wangji catches Wei Wuxian cheating with another student, Nie Huaisang, and oversees the punishment.
Wei Wuxian and Jiang Cheng are invited to solve the issue of the Water Ghosts plaguing Caiyi Town. Afterwards, they celebrate with drinking, but is again caught by Lan Wangji. Wei Wuxian casts a spell and forces him to drink, at which point he gets drunk and wakes up late the next morning. Due to his breaking the rules, he accepts the punishment given to the other boys who broke curfew.
After the punishment, Wei Wuxian happens upon Lan Wangji healing in a cold spring, and joins him. They get pulled into a cave, where they are stuck for about three days and listen to some expository information.
the sunshot campaign + battle at nightless city
One day, the Wen clan decide to request family members from each clan come to them for training. It turns out that they're power hungry, and wish to weaken all the other clans. They come to the Cloud Recesses and burn it down entirely. Lan Wangji's father is in critical condition and his brother Xichen is now missing, but he's forced to come attend the training.
During a mission, the Wen trap a bunch of the young clan members in a cave with a monster called the Slaughter Tortoise. The clan members escape, but Wei Wuxian and Lan Wangji stay behind to act as bait. The two of them remain trapped in the cave as the others go to get help, and kill the Slaughter Tortoise but are badly injured. Moreover, the Slaughter Tortoise left the hole the others escaped through caved in, so they have no option but to wait for help.
Once the clan members report back, there's a campaign against the Wen clan. They are summarily slaughtered, and the Clan Leader of Jin creates a new title called Chief Cultivator, and names himself that title.
Wei Wuxian sees how they're treating the remaining Wen members - women, children, those who had nothing to do with the war - throwing them in mass graves, executing them, and secedes from his clan in order to protect them. This is an unpopular move, and he is essentially shunned from elite society.
Lan Wangji goes to see him in order to tell him the news that his sister Jiang Yanli is to marry Jin Zixuan, son of the current Jin leader. He discovers that Wei Wuxian has adopted one of the Wen children, Wen Yuan. He purchases gifts for Yuan and dinner for them both, and leaves.
Lan Wangji later insists to the other clan members on inviting Wei Wuxian to his nephew's one-month celebration, since he and the Wen members have done nothing bad in the past year and perhaps deserve forgiveness. However, Wei Wuxian and his General Wen Ning are intercepted by an ambush of some members of the Jin clan who think he is trouble and wish to kill him. Jin Zixuan comes to the rescue, but under the control of another, Wen Ning kills him by accident.
Wen Ning and his sister Wen Qing take responsibility for this, immobilize Wei Wuxian, and are killed. However, upon scattering the remains of the two siblings, the Jin clan suggest that all Wen clan members must be slaughtered and announce this at the Nightless City to the other clan members who have gathered for the event.
Wei Wuxian decides to fight all of them, though Jiang Yanli sacrifices herself to save him. In the aftermath of realizing that he's accidentally resulted in his sister's death, and that none of them would ever stop blaming him for their problems, he dives off of a cliff. Lan Wangji tries to pull him back up, but Jiang Cheng disturbs the cliff in anger and Wei Wuxian uses the opportunity to make Lan Wangji let go of him.
the death of wei wuxian and present day
Lan Wangji is distraught and escapes the Lan clan after they destroy the Burial Mounds where the Wens have been taking refuge. He manages to find Yuan, who has hidden away, and is the only surviving member. He brings Yuan back to the Lan sect and accepts his punishment for attacking other Lan members in order to try and stop the Wen massacre, which is 33 lashings and house arrest for three years. At some point, he gets drunk and brands himself with the same brand that Wei Wuxian accidentally incurred trying to save someone.
After three years, he immediately goes to the Nightless City in order to retrieve Wei Wuxian's remains, but find none. Eventually he goes home to return to his life training members of the Lan family.
Another thirteen years pass, and Wei Wuxian is resurrected into the sacrificial body of Mo Xuanyu, who wears a mask and is "institutionalized" in his home by his family. The Lans are helping the Mos with a task, and depart to Dafan mountain where a statue has come to life and has been eating souls. Wei Wuxian plays the flute to summon a demon, and to his surprise, summons Wen Ning, who is presumed dead for the last thirteen years. Lan Wangji eventually makes it to Dafan mountain and recognizes Wei Wuxian immediately. He offers to take "Mo Xuanyu" who is actually Wei Wuxian home with him to the Cloud Recesses as his guest.
The two of them hear of man-eating castles and go to investigate. Lan Wangji and Wei Wuxian find Jin Ling, Wei Wuxian's nephew, immured in a wall. It turns out this is the burial ground of the Nie family, who have restless blades that thirst for blood even after their wielder has died.
Lan Wangji gets drunk one night with Wei Wuxian and goes to graffiti someone's wall, and steal their chickens, offering them to Wei Wuxian. This is a traditional gift from a groom to a bride, and Wei Wuxian refuses. When the two arrive to their hotel, they get in a fight with a gravedigger, who appears to be familiar with Lan Wangji's fighting style.
Eventually, Lan Wangji has to hide Wei Wuxian in the Cloud Recesses as people are starting to slowly cotton on that he's not Mo Xuanyu. While listening to Wei Wuxian plead his case, Lan Xichen realizes that the tune Wei Wuxian plays is incorrect. Wei Wuxian insists that it's the tune he heard, and they discover that the tune is forbidden magic.
After awhile, Wei Wuxian takes Lan Wangji home to Lotus Pier, where Wei Wuxian attempts to perform a ceremony of ancestral bows that are a tradition of marriage. They are intercepted by Jiang Cheng, who is angry at Wei Wuxian for daring to face his ancestors when he is directly the cause for several of their deaths. Wei Wuxian and Lan Wangji start to leave, but there's a gathering at Lotus Pier.
Sisi and Bicao are there, and start an accusation that Jin Guangyao, current head of the Jin clan, had killed the previous Jin Patriarch and has also committed incest, causing his wife (sister) to commit suicide. The rest of the gathering are enraged at this. Leaving after the meeting, Jiang Cheng is angry at Wei Wuxian and stabs him. Wen Ning explains to Jiang Cheng that Wei Wuxian actually gave Jiang Cheng his own powers, and Wen Ning, Wei Wuxian and Lan Wangji depart on a boat.
Wei Wuxian asks Lan Wangji if he has any regrets, and Lan Wangji confesses that he regrets not having stood alongside Wei Wuxian at the battle at Nightless City. Now that people know Wei Wuxian is back and alive, he gives Lan Wangji an opportunity to cut ties and save his reputation, which Lan Wangji summarily refuses.
One night, Wei Wuxian and Wen Ning decide to go to the Guanyin temple, where they discover that strange things are happening. Jin Ling is also there meddling, and Wei Wuxian reveals himself to save Jin Ling from being shot by an archer. All of them are brought inside - it's a trap set by Jin Guangyao. Lan Wangji arrives but Jin Guangyao is about to garrote Wei Wuxian, so Lan Wangji seals his powers to save him.
Jin Guangyao takes Jin Ling as hostage when Jiang Cheng, alerted by Jin Ling's dog, barges in and starts to fight with Jin Guangyao. However, he is injured in the process. Jin Guangyao unearths Nie Mingjue's grave but is poisoned, and the restless blade comes to life. Eventually, it kills Jin Guangyao's second in command, and Jin Guangyao's arm is cut off. He reveals that he orchestrated many events that lead to the framing of Wei Wuxian.
Nie Huaisang warns Lan Xichen that Jin Guangyao might be moving behind him while his back is turned, and Lan Xichen stabs Jin Guangyao in a panic. He reawakens Nie Mingjue's blade to crush the building, and everyone leaves but Jin Guangyao, who dies.
Lan Wangji is named the new Chief Cultivator, and Wei Wuxian leaves to find his place in the world. Lan Wangji eventually wraps up his business at home, and joins Wei Wuxian on the road.

His clan specializes in several cultivation techniques that are not employed by the other clans. They mainly involve the use of a guqin (instrument) and the interpretation of the musical language that derives from a guqin.
Inquiry involves communicating with spirits of the deceased. Chord Assassination allows the user to turn the sonic resonance of the guqin into blades. Vanquish is used in exorcism to quell restless spirits, and Rest allows for the calming of energies and spirits.
Additionally, his sect is known for their silencing spell, which can be cast at anyone who is then physically unable to speak for the length of a burning stick of incense. Breaking of the spell renders the victim physical damage to their mouth and throat.
Not only is he an excellent guqin player, but in the series he composes this song.
As supplementary canon from the novels, he is also an excellent cook.
