I need to address what happened last night. If you're tired of hearing about it, I promise I'll be fast and avoid detail.
[ He looks like he hasn't slept much. He's giving the crew a very somber expression. ]
First, Xue Yang isn't dead. The spirit going by the name of Wester put him in a penalty coma, where he's being forced to karmically experience the sensation of death. I know this because an incarnation of the same spirit dealt me the same punishment for a somewhat lesser crime, and I'm still standing.
Wester's spirit has certain abilities to uncover the past. The image they conjured was likely the truth, but it shouldn't have been shown to you all with such little warning. And I promise we're working on tracking them down to be dealt with, because however well-intentioned, it wasn't their place to be sole judge, jury, and executioner. You all shouldn't have to be afraid that every minor sin will bring wrath on your heads.
I'll try to answer any questions you have.
And...Wester, if you're listening, I still believe in you. We're both sinners, for better or worse, and you won't turn me away that easily. But we have to deal with this, delaying will only make it worse.

I don't think we can be in the business of punishing people for their actions before life here...but knowing these things can inform our security measures.
But murdering A-Qing was enough to deserve a severe punishment, I agree. Whatever rules we might have, 'don't kill, except during a few very narrow emergencies with no other choice' is as close to universal as it gets.

Then... You should talk to Lan Wangji. He knows all about that- about Xue Yang.
