Does he really deserve to feel any sort of relief in the knowledge that despite his actions, that Lan Xichen has managed to escape the destruction of the temple. The man will be broken in so many other ways because of those actions.

"The temple was destroyed but I've been in this place for a year...another world before this one for a year and a half. I have no idea what has been happening since I fell into the sleep and can't say with any certainty how anyone is faring."

His voice stays surprisingly steady and even though all of this. He has long since accepted that this is his new trial and path he needs to walk down. He finally finishes with those eyes and turns to look at the other man.
