After attacking Nightless City and Wen Ruohan's death, many things were hidden in everyone's hearts.
- Xi Yao-
After Meng Yao dealt with the remaining members of the Wen Clan on Mount Qi, she went to the tent of the GusuLan Clan to visit Lan Xichen.
Meng Yao lifted the tent and entered. What entered her eyes was a screen embroidered with cloud patterns. Behind the screen, the sound of water splashing could be heard. Meng Yao was a little cautious, but she was still a little worried. After the sound of water stopped, she said,"Ze Wu-Jun, are you resting?”
The rustling of clothes came from behind the screen. He was stunned for a moment and said,"Ah Yao? Why are you here?" After saying that, Lan Xi Chen walked out from behind the screen wearing only a middle garment.
Meng Yao fixed her eyes on this elegant and gentle young master of the Clear Ruins. He was dressed in white, with his long hair loose and his forehead untied. He was smiling at her. Such a handsome man was standing in front of her. She couldn't help but be stunned. She could only squeeze out three words,""Ze Wujun…"
"What's wrong, Yao?" Lan Xi Chen asked gently.”
"That…How's your injury? I've brought the healing medicine from the Wen family of Qishan. Take it as soon as possible. I'll leave first. I won't disturb your rest.”Meng Yao didn't dare to look at Lan Xi Chen's current appearance, so she hurriedly took her leave.
"You seem to have something to say to me, so stay. I can't sleep.”Lan Xi Chen asked.
Meng Yao stopped and turned around to see Lan Xi Chen sitting by the table. She nodded and said,""Alright."
The two of them were silent for a while. In the end, Meng Yao could not help but say,"Lord Ze Wu, thank you for protecting me!”
"Of course I believe in you. Although you've stayed in the Cloud Depths for half a year, I still believe in your character. Sect Master Nie's temperament is a little unyielding and sometimes he would misunderstand something."
"What if I really obey the Qishan Wen family?”Meng Yao asked.
"You won't. You were introduced to Gusu by Yuluo. Yuluo has always been a good judge of character. In addition, to be honest, I observed you for a while in the depths of the clouds. You are humble, hardworking, friendly, and filial. You are a rare talent!”Lan Xi Chen couldn't help but praise.
"Ze Wu-Jun, you flatter me!" Meng Yao was at a loss.
Lan XiChen gestured for Meng Yao to sit down and talk. He said,""The two of us were once friends in adversity. There's no need to be so reserved. Please sit.”
Meng Yao slowly sat across from Lan Xi Chen. Lan Xi Chen said nostalgically,""Although you and I have known each other for half a year, there was one time that I will never forget. Back then, Wen Xu of the Wen family of Mount Qi had led his men to burn the clouds to an unknown place. My father and uncle had asked me to escort the precious books in the library pavilion. When I was about to be burned to death in the library pavilion, I saw you barge in and bring me to your inn to hide from the spies.”
Lan Xi Chen poured the teacup in front of him to Meng Yao, then poured another cup for himself and drank a cup.
"No, no, no, Meng Yao has to thank you for taking care of her. That's why my mother's body recovered so quickly. The reason why Meng Yao did this was to repay her kindness. Today, in the main hall, Lord Ze Wu blocked three attacks for me. If it wasn't for you, I would have been beheaded. Under such circumstances, most people wouldn't believe it. Only you trusted me so much.”Meng Yao took half a step back and bowed to Lan Xi Chen.
"Hehehe, you're exaggerating. It's Xi Chen's fortune to meet you!”Lan XiChen laughed.
Meng Yao then told him the truth of the day,""A few days ago, Immortal Master Li…Miss Li sent me a letter thanking me for the route map, and then she found the spy hiding in the Nie family of Qinghe. She seemed to have her own plan. She sent me an incense burner and explained in detail how to use it. This is an incense burner that can make people dream. The more you desire something, the more you will dream of it. Wen Ruohan has always been troubled by the matter of ascending to immortality, so I secretly ordered someone to place this incense burner in his room, thus weaving a beautiful dream for him. If heaven wants to destroy them, it must first make them crazy! I understood the meaning of this sentence, so we put on a good show in front of Wen Ruohan. It was even as good as the real thing. After thinking about it, it made sense. If we wanted to deceive the enemy, we had to deceive ourselves first. Therefore, only Miss Li and I knew about this plan. Thus, we directed and acted on our own, successfully deceiving the old fox Wen Ruohan. It was not easy!”
"I see, but Yuluo is taking too much of a risk. If these people know about your relationship with Yuluo, it will be bad!”Lan Xi Chen said with lingering fear.
"There was indeed someone in the hall who might know about my relationship with Miss Li. That person was Deputy Emissary Huang, so I found an opportunity to kill him first to prevent this spy from leaking the secret. Firstly, I could shut his mouth, and secondly, I could let Wen Ruohan see my loyalty to him and let his guard down.”Meng Yao explained, then carefully looked at Lan Xi Chen," Ze Wu Jun, do you think I'm a ruthless person?"”
"In a moment of desperation, we can only do this. If it were me, I would do the same, but I would never be as calm as you!”Lan Xi Chen sighed.
"Actually, Miss Li and I were very flustered at that time. We were afraid that Sect Master Nie would blurt out that Miss Li and I were old friends and that would be the end of us. So I could only say some words that went against my heart to provoke him. Tomorrow, when Sect Master Nie's injuries have recovered slightly, I will go to his door and beg for forgiveness!”Meng Yao spoke her mind.
"En, Sect Master Nie is a righteous person and will definitely understand your difficulties. Tomorrow, I will go with you to visit Brother Ming Jue.”Lan XiChen said.
Lan Xichen changed the topic and said," Ah Yao, after we attacked the Nightless City, there are still many Wen family cultivators and captives. How to deal with these people is really giving me a headache. The Qi Mountain cultivators are indeed unforgivable, but the remaining captives are mostly the old, weak, women and children. You know that I can't bear to see them. In a few days, I will discuss this matter with Sect Master Jiang, Sect Master Nie, and Sect Master Jin. You are the one who killed Wen Ruohan and will also attend this meeting. I hope you can give me some suggestions.”
Meng Yao pondered for a while and came up with an idea. She said,"Ze Wu-Jun, why don't we convict them according to their ranks? As for their military achievements, we'll count them according to their military achievements.”
"What a good idea. Ah Yao, you actually thought of it in an instant!”Lan Xi Chen suddenly understood," I will discuss this matter with Brother Ming Jue tomorrow. We will draw up an outline first."”
"Ze Wujun, I'm a little embarrassed by your praise.”Meng Yao teased.
"Hahaha, don't call me that. I think it's better for you and Yuluo to call me brother Xichen. After the Sun Shooting Expedition, let's become sworn brothers!”Lan Xi Chen suddenly thought.
"Brother Xi Chen!”Meng Yao smiled brightly.
The two of them looked at each other and smiled. Lan Xichen suddenly coughed. Meng Yao was shocked and stood up to support Lan Xichen. She quickly picked up the healing medicine on the table and fed it to Lan Xichen. She helped him to the bed to rest, but she found that Lan Xichen's chest was emitting a pitch-black resentment. She said,"Brother Xi Chen, sorry for offending you!" After saying that, he took off Lan Xi Chen's clothes to check his injuries and quickly used his spiritual energy to suppress them.
Before Lan Xi Chen could stop her, Meng Yao's palm was pressed against his chest, suppressing the spreading of the resentment. His ling power emitted a pure light, and a trace of warmth came from his chest, dispelling the coldness of the resentment. His injuries gradually recovered. Meng Yao said,"I will go to Young Master Wei's tent to ask him how to pull out the resentment.”
He looked at Lan Xi Chen with a trace of heartache.
Lan Xi Chen pulled Meng Yao's hand and said: "I think Young Master Wei did it unintentionally. It's better not to disturb him now.”
Meng Yao took care of Lan Xichen until he fell asleep before leaving.
As soon as he walked out of Lan Xi Chen's tent, a person wearing a Golden Star Snow Wave Robe appeared in front of him. That person said,""Young Master Meng, right? Please come with us!”

Forget Envy
Wei WuXian followed Jiang Cheng, who was carrying Li Yuluo, into the medical tent. He was chased out by the female cultivator of the Lan family,"This is an important medical area. Please wait outside the tent!”With that, he turned around and went in.
It was almost midnight when Lan Qiyi walked out of the tent and sighed."It was a scare but not a danger. It's no longer a big deal. Sigh, Yuluo, this child, took too much of a risk.”
"Thank you, Senior!" Jiang Cheng and Wei WuXian cupped their hands.
"It's not a good time to go in now. She needs more rest." Lan Qiyi told Jiang Cheng.”With that, he waved his hand and left.
Wei WuXian suddenly let out a sigh of relief. Although Jiang Cheng was a little worried, he could only force himself to leave. After all, the YunmengJiang Clan still had many things to deal with.
Wei WuXian wandered among the many tents. The people in the camp were happy, worried, sad, and laughing, but in the end, they were all drunk. Wei WuXian thought about all the things that had happened in the past half a year. The past was still vivid in his mind. The Education Department of Qishan, slaughtering the Xuanwu Cave, and shooting kites with his fellow disciples. He was truly a carefree young man. Later, Madam Yu and Uncle Jiang died tragically, and Jiang Cheng escaped with him…Later on, he cultivated the Ghost Dao and slaughtered his way to the Nightless City. Madam Yu, Uncle Jiang, and his fellow disciples should have died in peace. Then, where should he go? For some reason, he wanted to drink to his heart's content. Looking at the cultivator sleeping by his feet, he casually picked up the warm wine on the bonfire and raised his head to take a big gulp, waking up the cultivator beside him. The cultivator looked over in a daze and stuttered,"Wei, Wei WuXian?"
Wei WuXian shook the wine jar and said to the cultivator,"Brother, let me borrow your wine!"
"You can use it!" The cultivator was a little scared, looking at Wei WuXian with respect.
Wei WuXian waved at the cultivator, leaving behind a dark silhouette, looking a little lonely.
Walking to a place where no one was around, Wei WuXian found a rock and sat down on the ground. He held a warm wine jar and drank. A pure white figure came to a place not far from the rock. There were gray circles around his eyes. Clearly, he hadn't slept all night. Wei WuXian turned around and smiled,"Lan Zhan, you're here!"
"Wei Ying." Lan WangJi said.
"En, Lan Zhan, oh no, I should call you HanGuang-Jun now. I have wine, do you want it?”Wei WuXian shook the wine jar and smiled at Lan WangJi.
"No need." Lan WangJi said. With that, he stood behind Wei WuXian.
Wei WuXian laughed. He raised his head and took a sip,"That's true. I forgot that the Lan family never drinks.”
Lan WangJi approached Wei WuXian,"Why are you drinking alone?"
"I'm in a bad mood, there's too much going on…" Wei WuXian blurted out. Then, he took another gulp.
"Drinking is harmful to the body, messing up the mind and mind.”Lan WangJi advised, and then came to snatch Wei WuXian's wine jar.
Wei WuXian rolled over and turned around with the jar. He took another sip and said,"There are countless things in my heart, but only getting drunk can solve a thousand worries. I advise you not to disturb me!”
Lan WangJi didn't say anything, his hands hanging by his side. He just stared at Wei WuXian.
"It's not like this place is hidden in the clouds," Wei WuXian said to himself."I'm drinking my wine, you can't control me!"”
Wei WuXian looked slightly tipsy, but his back was still straight. When the wine was finished, Wei WuXian threw the wine jar away and fought with Lan WangJi. Wei WuXian raised his knees, clenched his fists, and rushed towards Lan WangJi's door. Lan WangJi dodged Wei WuXian's kick and grabbed Wei WuXian's fist. Wei WuXian's waist twisted into a soft arc and flipped upwards. Lan WangJi flew back and grabbed Wei WuXian's shoulder, locking it tightly. Wei WuXian pulled out Chen Qing from his waist, He used his backhand to hit Lan WangJi, and Lan WangJi also used his backhand to grab Chen Qing tightly. He pressed down, and Wei WuXian almost fell to the ground. He struggled out of Lan WangJi's grip on Chen Qing and gently pushed the ghost flute towards Lan WangJi's chest. Lan WangJi grunted and released his grip on Wei WuXian.
The people in the distance looked at the scene of the fight, but they did not dare to go forward. They only said,"HanGuang-Jun and Wei WuXian have always been at odds, that's why they fought.”
Then, seeing that the two of them were locked in a fight, they lost interest and dispersed.
In the future, one would spread to ten, ten to a hundred.
On this side, Lan WangJi and Wei WuXian fought for two rounds. In the end, Wei WuXian was about to strike Lan WangJi with his palm. Lan WangJi took a step back, negating the power of the palm. His arms wrapped around Wei WuXian like chains. Wei WuXian was firmly trapped in Lan WangJi's arms. The two of them fell to the ground. Lan WangJi flipped over and laid under Wei WuXian's body. Just as he was about to push the person on top of him away, the person stopped moving. Then, he snored. It turned out that Wei WuXian had fallen asleep.
Lan WangJi was at a loss at first, but then he felt relieved. He slowly straightened up and rested Wei WuXian's head on his lap. He must have vented enough. A cool breeze rose above the cliff. A handsome young man in white sat on the ground, leaning against a large black rock behind him. He recalled what had happened in the Xuanwu Cave half a year ago. He was like this, lying obediently on his lap, acting coquettishly in a daze, never leaving him. Ever since the incident with Yunmeng, He had been searching for him all this while, but he had been unable to find him. Only the heavens knew how worried he was for him. Three months ago, he had appeared before him with a heavy aura of resentment. He didn't want to capture him and punish him, but rather, his heart ached. That's right, Wei Ying wasn't a member of the Gusulan Clan. What could he do to make him return with him?
Unknowingly, Lan WangJi was lost in his thoughts. The person in his arms couldn't help but move, muttering,"It smells so good. It's sandalwood. Aiya, why did Lan Zhan dream of you again?”Wei WuXian chuckled, as if he thought this was all a dream. He turned around and said,"Lan Zhan, I'm sorry and thank you!”
Lan WangJi was startled.
"I'm sorry for hurting Ze Wujun. I just couldn't control my temper.”Wei WuXian whispered.
"Yes." Lan WangJi could only say one word in the end. He gently stroked Wei WuXian's forehead.
"I'm very afraid, afraid of losing the people around me again. Uncle Jiang and Madam Yu are gone, we can't lose anyone else.”A tear rolled down Wei WuXian's cheek and landed on the back of Lan WangJi's hand. It carried a bitter taste,"Senior Jiang Cheng and Yuluo are both very important people (family and friends). The four of us must be together forever."”
"What about me? Who am I?" Lan WangJi couldn't help asking.
Wei WuXian didn't answer, and fell into a deep sleep.
Seeing Wei WuXian like this, Lan WangJi felt a little defeated. He pushed Wei WuXian away. Wei WuXian's head lightly knocked on the grass, and Lan WangJi left with a flick of his sleeve.
