Running at night-I

Inside the largest Lingbao Pavilion in Lanling City.

Among the dazzling and well-proportioned Duobaoge, there are countless high-grade spiritual jades and high-quality weapons on display. Countless monks are choosing among them, comparing them carefully, considering the price, and coming to chat if they have time.

A person said: "Immortal Governor? It seems that several big families have been arguing about this matter recently. Has the dispute been settled?"

"What's there to argue about? It's impossible to be a mess without a leader. I think it's totally good to have an immortal leader who can oversee hundreds of families."

"It's not good, what if the Qishan Wen family comes again..."

"How can this be the same? The Immortal Governor is elected by many families. It's different."

"Hey, it's said to be a recommendation. Everyone knows clearly. Shouldn't it just be those few who come and go, and others will get their turn?"

"Chiefeng Zun's objections must be very strong. He has choked back Jin Guangshan's hints many times. I think there is still work to be done."

"And the seat of the Immortal Governor can only be occupied by one person. If it is passed, who should sit? I think the quarrel will last for a few more years."

"Anyway, it's all the ones at the top who have to worry about it, it's none of our business. Little shrimps like us can't care about it."

One person changed the topic and said: "Last month, when the Yunshenzhuzang Library was inaugurated, who among you were there to watch it? I went down, and when I stood there, I saw that it was built exactly the same as before. It's really not easy."

"Yes, it's not easy. Such a big fairy mansion and a century-old fairyland can't be rebuilt in a short time."

"Speaking of which, there have been so many happy events recently."

"Are you talking about Jin Zixuan's son's Nianzhou ceremony? That kid grabbed his father's Suihua among a bunch of colorful things. His parents were very happy. They all said that he will definitely be a great swordsman in the future."

Not far away, a man in white was taking a jade tassel and looking at it carefully in his hand, and smiled when he heard the sound.

The voice of a female cultivator came: "Mrs. Xiao Jin is so lucky... This must be the good fortune that was gained after giving up on ascension in the previous life."

Her female companion said: "It seems that everything is worse than rebirth. People are obviously like that..."

The man in white frowned slightly. Fortunately, those slightly sour words were immediately overshadowed by other loud voices: "The Lanling Jin clan deserves to be the Lanling Jin clan. The ceremony of holding a baby's hand is so grand."

"Don't you look at who the baby's parents are? Can you be careless? Not to mention that Mrs. Jin's husband is not willing to be careless. If the ostentation is a little smaller, which of her mother-in-law and her brother is willing? They will wait until the full moon ceremony in two days. I'm afraid it will be even more extravagant."

"Speaking of which, do you know that it is said that this full moon ceremony... invited someone?"

 "who?"

"Wei Wuxian!"

There was silence in Lingbao Pavilion for a moment.

Some people said in disbelief: "This... I thought it was just a rumor. Did you really invite me?!"

"Please! It has been confirmed in the past few days that Wei Wuxian will go."

Someone asked in disbelief: "What do the Lanling Jin clan think? Have they forgotten about Wei Wuxian's indiscriminate killing of innocent people in Qiongqi Road?"

"Who dares to invite such a person to Jin Ling's full moon ceremony? Anyway, I definitely won't go."

As soon as this sentence came out, many people laughed secretly in their hearts: You are not even qualified to receive an invitation, how can you worry about whether to go or not?

The man in white raised his eyebrows, picked up his things, and stepped out of Lingbao Pavilion.

After walking a few steps, he turned into an alley and a figure in black emerged and said, "Sir, have you finished your shopping?"

Wei Wuxian threw the delicate sandalwood box in his hand to him. Wen Ning took it and opened it, only to see a white jade tassel pendant inside. The jade color was transparent and the soft light flowed, as if it were alive.

He said happily: "It's so beautiful!"

Wei WuXian said: "Such a beautiful little thing is not cheap. Your sister's money is not enough to buy this after I bought a new set of clothes. Anyway, I have no money left. Go back and wait for the scolding."

Wen Ning hurriedly said: "No, no. My sister will not scold you if you give gifts to Miss Jiang's child."

Wei WuXian said, "This is what you said. When she scolds me, remember to help me block her."

Wen Ning nodded and added, "Young Master Jin Ling will definitely like this gift."

Wei Wuxian said, "This is not the gift I want to give you. It's just a small accessory. Apart from being beautiful, what are those things in Lingbao Pavilion?"

Wen Ning was startled and said, "Then what gift have you prepared, Master?"

Wei Wuxian said, "The secret of heaven must not be leaked."

Wen Ning said, "Oh."

As expected, he didn't ask again. As a result, Wei Wuxian held it in for a while, but he couldn't hold it in anymore, and said: "Wen Ning, at this time, shouldn't you continue to be curious and pestering us to ask questions? How could you really just say "Oh" and stop asking? Could it be that you Don't you want to know what the gift is???"

Wen Ning looked at him blankly, and finally reacted, saying: "...Think! Young Master! What gift have you prepared?"

Wei Wuxian then took out a small wooden box from his sleeve, waved it in front of Wen Ning, and smiled. Wen Ning took it, opened it, and blurted out: "What an amazing silver bell!"

This "awesome" does not refer to its exquisite workmanship. Although its pure silver color and the lifelike nine-petal lotus on the bell can be said to be the pinnacle of craftsmanship, it was this small silver bell that amazed Wen Ning. The powerful energy contained in it.

Wen Ning said: "Sir, you have been locked up in the Demon-Conquering Cave for more than half a month, unable to come out day and night. Is this what you are doing?"

Wei WuXian said, "That's right. As long as my nephew hangs up this silver bell, no demons or monsters of lower grade will be able to get close to him. You can't touch it, and it will probably sting you for a while if you touch it."

Wen Ning nodded and said, "I can feel it."

Wei Wuxian took out the tassel pendant and placed it under the silver bell. The two things matched beautifully, and he was very satisfied. Wen Ning said: "However, since you are attending Young Master Jin Ling's full moon ceremony, Master, when you see Miss Jiang's husband, you must hold back and don't conflict with him..."

Wei Wuxian waved his hand and said, "Don't worry about this, I naturally have a sense of propriety. Since Jin Zixuan invited me this time, I won't say anything bad about him for a year."

Wen Ning scratched his head and said sheepishly: "When Mr. Jin sent people to deliver invitations under the mass graves, I thought there must be a scam, but it turned out that it was a misunderstanding and I really couldn't forgive him. I couldn't tell, but in fact Mr. Jin is also a good man..."

At noon, the two of them passed Qiongqi Road.

Qiongqi Road has been renamed after its reconstruction. Wei Wuxian doesn't know what it is called now, and it seems that other people can't remember it, so most of the time it is still called Qiongqi Road. At first, he didn't notice anything unusual, but as he walked to the center of the valley, Wei Wuxian felt more and more something was wrong.

There shouldn't be so few pedestrians.

Wei WuXian asked, "Is there anything strange?"

Wen Ning rolled his eyes. After a moment, he lowered his pupils and said, "No. It's so quiet."

Wei WuXian said, "It's a bit too quiet."

He couldn't even catch a trace of the inhuman noise that filled his ears that he often heard in the past.

Wei Wuxian was wary and whispered, "Let's go!"

Just as he changed direction, Wen Ning suddenly raised his hand and intercepted something.

That was an arrow heading straight for Wei Wuxian's heart!

Wei Wuxian raised his head suddenly and saw many people coming out of every corner on both sides of the valley and on the mountain walls. There were about three hundred people, most of them were wearing Venus Snow Wave robes, and some were wearing other colors. They all had long bows on their backs and swords on their waists. Their faces were full of vigilance and they were fully armed. Using the mountain and other people as cover, the tips of swords and arrows were all aimed at him. The feathered arrow that shot at Wei Wuxian first was shot by the first person. Taking a closer look, he saw that the man was tall, dark-skinned, and handsome, and he looked very familiar.

Wei Wuxian asked, "Who are you?"

After the man shot an arrow, he originally had something to say, but when he asked him, he forgot everything and said angrily: "You actually asked me who I am? I am - Jin Zixun!"

Wei Wuxian immediately remembered that this was Jin Zixuan's cousin. He had met this man twice.

His heart sank. Originally, my heart was filled with the joy of attending Jiang Yanli's son's full moon party, but at this moment, the joy disappeared and was cast into a shadow. But he didn't want to think about it carefully or guess why these people were ambushing here.

Jin Zixun said loudly: "Wei Wuxian, I'm warning you. I will immediately lift the curse you cast. I can pretend that nothing happened and won't hold you accountable."

Wei Wuxian was startled when he heard this. Even though he knew it would be taken as a denial, he still had to ask clearly and blurted out: "What curse?"

Sure enough, Jin Zixun thought he was asking questions knowingly, "You still dare to pretend?"

He suddenly pulled open his collar and roared: "Okay, I'll show you what kind of curse you are!"

Jin Zixun's chest was densely covered with holes, large and small!

These pits were as small as sesame seeds and as big as soybeans, and they were evenly distributed on his body, making him feel chilly.

Wei Wuxian only glanced at it and said, "'Riddled with holes'?"

Jin Zixun said: "That's right! It's full of holes!"

"Being riddled with holes" is an extremely insidious and vicious curse.

Back then, when Wei Wuxian was copying books in the Gusu Lan Sect's library, he came across an ancient book that mentioned this kind of curse with an illustration. The man in the picture had a calm face and seemed to be feeling no pain. But there were already many black holes the size of coins growing on his body.

At first, the practitioner is unconscious and most likely thinks that his or her pores are just roughened. However, after a while, those small holes will become the size of sesame seeds. As you go to the back, the holes will grow bigger and bigger, until the whole body is covered with black holes of all sizes, as if it has become a living sieve. Extremely human. Moreover, when the surface of the skin is covered with sores, the curse will begin to spread to the internal organs, ranging from unbearable abdominal pain to severe ulceration of the internal organs!

Jin Zixun actually suffered from such a disgusting and difficult-to-eliminate curse, and Wei Wuxian felt a little sympathetic for a moment. However, even if he sympathized with him, he still felt that Jin Zixun was completely brainless and said: "You have been riddled with wounds. What do you mean by cutting me off? What does it have to do with me?"

Jin Zixun seemed to be disgusted by the sight of his own chest. He closed his clothes and said, "Other than you, a thief who is accustomed to making evil spirits go astray, who else would do such insidious things to me?"

Wei Wuxian thought to himself, that's a lot. Could it be that Jin Zixun thought he was very popular?

But he didn't want to say it outright to anger Jin Zixun and worsen the situation. He said: "Jin Zixun, I don't play such tricks in the gutter. If I want to kill someone, I will let everyone know that this person is Death by my hands. And if I wanted you dead, you would be a thousand times uglier than you are now."

Jin Zixun said: "Aren't you crazy? You dare to do it but dare not admit it?"

Wei Wuxian said, "I didn't do it, why should I admit it?"

Jin Zixun's eyes flashed fiercely, and he said: "Be polite first, then fight. Since you are unwilling to turn around, I won't be polite!"

Wei Wuxian paused and said, "Oh?"

The meaning of "you're welcome" is obvious.

There are two ways to unravel the holes. In addition to letting the curse caster harm himself and withdraw the curse on his own, there is another most thorough solution:

Kill the caster!

Wei Wuxian said scornfully: "You're welcome? You? Just rely on your few hundred to command people?"

Jin Zixun waved his arm, and all the disciples cocked their arrows, aiming at Wei Wuxian and Wen Ning at the lowest point in the valley. Wei Wuxian also raised Chen Qing, and the sharp sound of the flute tore through the silent valley.

However, after waiting for a moment, there was no response. Jin Zixun said: "We have already cleaned up this entire area, and we are just waiting for you to come over. No matter how much you brag, you won't be able to recruit a few helpers. This is the burial place carefully prepared for you!"

Wei Wuxian sneered, "You are seeking death yourself!"

After he finished speaking, Wen Ning raised his hand and broke the red rope with a talisman hanging around his neck.

After the red rope broke, his body swayed, and the muscles on his face began to gradually twist, with several black cracks creeping up from his neck to his cheeks. Suddenly he raised his head and let out a long, inhuman roar!

Among the more than 300 people in ambush, there were many experts in the night hunting field. They had never heard of a murderous corpse making such a terrifying sound, and all of them felt weak in the soles of their feet. Jin Zixun's scalp was also numb. He raised his arm and ordered: "Fire the arrow!"

Arrows are like a rainstorm!

Wen Ning split a rock with his bare hands and raised it high to block all the sharp arrows. After the rain of arrows fell, more than a hundred monks jumped down the mountain wall and attacked the two people in the valley. Wei Wuxian took a few steps back, then dodged and avoided a sneak attack from the sword.

Jin Zixun had already attacked while Wen Ning was dealing with more than a hundred people. Seeing that Wei Wuxian didn't have a sword and only had a flute that was temporarily useless, he laughed and said, "This is the price for your arrogance. How can you resist without a sword by your side?"

Wei Wuxian waved his hand and there was a row of talismans burning with green flames, which dimmed the light of Jin Zixun's sword. Jin Zixun was startled as soon as he finished laughing and quickly concentrated on dealing with it. The two fought close by for a while, and something suddenly came out of Wei Wuxian's sleeve. His eyes narrowed and he felt bad.

That kind of thing was a gift prepared for Jin Ling. He paid too much attention to it and was afraid of throwing it around and crushing it. He also wanted to take it out to enjoy it from time to time, so he just kept it in his sleeve. At this time, he didn't care about it during the fierce fight. He carefully threw it out and flew straight towards Jin Zixun. Jin Zixun thought it was a hidden weapon or poison, and wanted to run away, but when he saw Wei Wuxian's expression changed drastically, he changed his mind and grabbed him. What he saw was an exquisite small wooden box with a line of small characters engraved on it, which read Jin Ling's name and birthday. Jin Zixun was startled at first, then understood and burst out laughing.

Wei Wuxian lowered his face and said word by word: "Give me back the things."

Jin Zixun raised the small wooden box and mocked: "Is this a gift for Aling?"

Wen Ning was not far ahead, killing one to a hundred, until the sky was dark. Jin Zixun said: "You don't really think you can attend A Ling's full moon banquet, do you?"

This sentence made Wei Wuxian's hands tremble slightly.

At this moment, a voice shouted: "Stop it!"

A figure in white jumped down the valley lightly and stood between Wei Wuxian and Jin Zixun. When Jin Zixun saw the person, he lost his voice and said: "Zixuan? Why are you here?!"

Jin Zixuan put one hand on the hilt of the sword at his waist and said angrily: "What do you think I'm here to do!"

Jin Zixun said: "Where is Ayao?"

Jin Guangyao was the helper who was supposed to be here to help him. Last year, he looked down on Jin Guangyao very much and looked down on him. But now that their relationship has improved, they are not what they used to be, and they are getting closer. Jin Zixuan said: "I detained him at Jinlin Terrace. If I hadn't knocked him out because he looked wrong, would you have planned to do this? You were riddled with wounds, why didn't you tell me at all? If you don't say anything, you will do this kind of thing!"

Jin Zixun's body is riddled with evil curses, which is really hard to talk about. Firstly, he originally had a good appearance and physique, and he had always boasted of being romantic, so he could not bear to have people know that he had been cursed with such a disgusting and ugly curse; secondly, being cursed showed that he had insufficient cultivation and weak spiritual defense, which was even more inconvenient. humane. Therefore, he only told Jin Guangshan about the curse and asked him to find the best mystic master and doctor for him. Unexpectedly, both the doctor and the magician were helpless, but Jin Ling's full moon banquet was approaching, and Jin Zixuan took the initiative to invite Wei Wuxian. Jin Guangshan was not very happy at first, so he suggested that Jin Zixun use a trick to intercept and kill Wei Wuxian on his way to the banquet, so that he would not have to go to the Jinlin Tower. Wei Wuxian is Jiang Yanli's younger brother, and Jin Jiang's husband and wife are very affectionate. Jin Zixuan would nag his wife about almost every trivial matter. Several people were worried that he would leak the news and Wei Wuxian would not come, so They have been hiding this from Jin Zixuan. At this time, it was a bit unkind. Seeing that the matter was exposed, Jin Zixun also felt guilty, but after all, his life was important. He said: "Zixuan, sister-in-law, you can hide it for now. Later, I will remove these things from my body and then I will apologize to you." !"

When Wei Wuxian saw Jin Zixuan for the last time, he was still as arrogant as a young man. Now that he has gotten married, he seems much calmer, and he speaks loudly and calmly, "There is still room for change in this matter, you all." Stop it for now."

Jin Zixun was angry and impatient, and said: "What can be done now? Haven't you seen these things on me?!"

Seeing that he seemed to want to lift up his clothes and expose his pitted chest, Jin Zixuan hurriedly said: "No need! I have already heard Jin Guangyao say it!"

Jin Zixun said: "Since you have heard what he said, you should know that I can't wait any longer. Do you think he is my sister-in-law's junior brother, and for the sake of my sister-in-law, he doesn't care about his brother's life or death?!"

Jin Zixuan said: "You clearly know that I am not such a person! The scars on your body are not necessarily caused by him, so why are you so impatient! After all, Wei Wuxian was invited by me to attend Aling's full moon banquet. You guys are like this Where do you put me? Where do you put my wife?"

Jin Zixun raised his voice and said, "It's best if he can't participate! Who is Wei Wuxian? He deserves to attend our family banquet? Anyone who touches him will be covered in black water! Zixuan, you are not afraid to invite him here." From now on, you, your sister-in-law, and Aling will all have a stain that they can't get rid of for the rest of their lives?!"

Jin Zixuan shouted: "Shut up!"

Jin Zixun was angry, and with a strong force in his hand, the small wooden box containing the silver bells and jade ears was crushed to pieces in an instant!

Wei Wuxian watched with his own eyes as the object in his palm turned into powder, his pupils narrowed sharply, and he struck Jin Zixun with his palm. Jin Zixuan didn't know what was in the box yet, so he raised his hand to block his palm and shouted, "Wei Wuxian! Have you had enough?"

Wei Wuxian's chest rose and fell rapidly, and his eyes were red. After all, Jin Zixuan and Jin Zixun were cousins who had known each other since childhood. They had known each other for ten or twenty years. At this time, it was really difficult for him to speak to outsiders, and he really didn't like Wei Wuxian. He calmed down and said : "You tell this Wen Ning to stop first, tell him not to go crazy, and stop making the matter bigger."

Wei Wuxian said in a hoarse voice: "...Why don't you tell them to stop first?"

There was endless shouting and fighting everywhere. Jin Zixuan said angrily: "Why are you so tough at this time? Calm down, go to Jinlin Terrace with me first, have an honest confrontation with me, and explain the matter clearly. As long as it was not you, everything will be fine. !"

Wei Wuxian said, "Stop? As soon as I tell Wen Ning to stop now, thousands of arrows will be fired, thousands of swords will pierce the heart, and no one will be left intact! Are you going to the Jinlin Platform to argue?"

Jin Zixuan said: "No!"

Wei Wuxian sneered, "No? What guarantee do you have? Jin Zixuan, I have a question. When you invited me in the first place, did you really not know about their plan to intercept and kill me?!"

Jin Zixuan was startled and said angrily: "You! Wei Wuxian, you - you are crazy!"

Wei Wuxian suppressed a surge of hatred and said coldly: "Jin Zixuan, get out of my way. I won't touch you, but don't mess with me either."

Seeing that he was stubborn and refused to bow his head, Jin Zixuan suddenly took action, as if to capture him, and said, "Why don't you just give in a little bit! Ah Li..."

He stretched out his hand towards Wei Wuxian, and heard a dull sound.

The strange sound was so close that Jin Zixuan was startled. Lowering his head, he saw the hand piercing his chest.

At some point, Wen Ning came to them, with a few drops of hot and dazzling blood splattered on half of his expressionless face.

Jin Zixuan's lips moved, his expression a little dazed. However, I still insisted on continuing the half of the sentence I just left unfinished:

"...She is still waiting for you to go to Jinlin Terrace to attend Aling's full moon banquet..."

The look on Wei Wuxian's face was as stunned as his. For a while, he didn't realize what was going on.

 what happened?

Why did it become like this in an instant?

No.

It shouldn't be.

Something must have gone wrong.

Wen Ning pulled out the right hand that had pierced Jin Zixuan's chest, leaving a hole that felt cold to his heart.

Jin Zixuan's face looked sad and twitched, as if he thought the injury was no big deal and he could still stand. But in the end, his knees weakened and he knelt down first.

Horrified cries rose and fell in all directions.

"Ghost...Ghost General is going crazy!"

"Kill, he killed, Wei Wuxian asked General Ghost to kill Jin Zixuan!"

Jin Zixun yelled: "Fire the arrow! Why are you still standing there! Fire the arrow!"

However, when he turned around, a black figure approached him like a ghost. His throat tightened and he was strangled by pale hands.

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh"

Wei Wuxian stood there blankly, motionless.

 no.

 no.

He clearly controlled Wen Ning just now.

Even if Wen Ning had been driven into a state of madness by him, he should still be able to control it.

Obviously, I have always been able to control it perfectly.

He had no intention of killing Jin Zixuan.

He had no intention of killing Jin Zixuan! But at that moment, for some reason, he suddenly couldn't control it... suddenly he lost control!

Jin Zixuan's body finally couldn't hold it up anymore and he fell forward heavily, falling to the ground with a bang.

He has been arrogant and arrogant all his life, attaches great importance to his appearance and manners, likes cleanliness, and even has a slight mysophobia. At this moment, he was face down and fell into the dust in a very embarrassed manner. The bits of blood on his face and the bit of cinnabar between his eyebrows are the same bright red color.

Staring at his eyes that were gradually losing their luster, Wei Wuxian's mind was in confusion. The surrounding area had been reduced to a sea of blood with screams everywhere, but he could no longer hear anything.

The only thing that can be heard is a crazy questioning voice in my heart:

Don't you know how to count?

Didn't you say you can control it?

Didn't you say that there would be absolutely no problem and nothing would go wrong! ! !

Wei Wuxian's mind went blank. After an unknown amount of time, he suddenly opened his eyes.

What I saw in front of me was the pitch-black dome of the Demon-Conquering Cave.

Wen Qing and Wen Ning are both in the Demon-Conquering Cave.

Wen Ning's pupils fell back into the whites of his eyes, and he was no longer in a state of madness. He seemed to be talking to Wen Qing in a low voice. When he saw Wei Wuxian open his eyes, he knelt on the ground silently. Wenqing had red eyes and said nothing.

Wei Wuxian sat up.

After being silent for a long time, a surge of hatred suddenly surged in his heart.

He kicked Wen Ning in the chest and knocked him to the ground.

Wenqing shrank in fright, clenched her fists, but only lowered her head and pursed her lips.

Wei Wuxian roared, "Who did you kill? Do you know who you killed?!"

At this moment, Wen Yuan ran in from outside the hall with a grass-woven butterfly on her head, and said with a smile: "Brother Xian..."

He originally wanted to show Wei Wuxian his butterfly painted in a new color, but when he came in, he saw a ghost-like Wei Wuxian and Wen Ning curled up on the ground, and he was shocked. Wei Wuxian turned his head sharply. He had not yet restrained his emotions. His eyes were so terrifying that Wen Yuan was so frightened that the butterfly slipped from his head and fell to the ground. He burst into tears on the spot. Fourth uncle hurriedly came in with his waist bent and carried him out.

After Wen Ning was kicked over by him, he got up and knelt down again, not daring to speak. Wei Wuxian grabbed his collar, lifted him up, and shouted, "You can kill anyone, why did you kill Jin Zixuan?!"

Wenqing watched from the side, wanting to come up to protect her younger brother, but she forced herself to hold back, and shed tears in sadness and fear.

Wei Wuxian said: "If you kill him, what will you do to Senior Sister? What will you do to Senior Sister's son?! What will you do to me? What will I do?!"

His roar buzzed in the Demon-Conquering Cave and spread outside. Wen Yuan cried even harder.

Hearing the distant cry of the child in his ears, and looking at the frightened siblings who didn't know where to put their hands and feet, Wei Wuxian's heart became darker and darker. He asked himself: "Why on earth have I trapped myself in this mass grave all these years? Why do I have to suffer this? Why did I have to go this way in the first place? Why did I put myself in this way? Others What do you think of me? What did I get? Am I crazy? Am I crazy? Am I crazy!"

It would have been better if he had not chosen this path in the first place.

Suddenly, Wen Ning whispered: "...I'm...sorry."

This is a dead person, with no expression, no red eyes, and no tears. However, at this moment, the dead man's face showed real pain.

He repeated: "I'm sorry...

"It's all my fault...

 "sorry..."

Listen to him stuttering and apologizing repeatedly. Suddenly, Wei Wuxian felt extremely funny.

It's not Wen Ning's fault at all.

It's his own fault.

Wen Ning in a mad state is just a weapon. He is the maker of this weapon. He who obeys is also his command:.

At that time, swords were drawn and murderous intent was raging. In addition, he never hesitated to reveal his hostility towards Jin Zixuan in front of Wen Ning. Therefore, as soon as Jin Zixuan made a move, Wen Ning, in his ignorant state, recognized him as an "enemy" , carried out the order of "massacre" without thinking.

It was he who failed to control this weapon. It's because he is too conceited about his abilities. It was he who had ignored all the ominous signs so far, believing that he could suppress any signs of losing control.

Wen Ning is a weapon, but did he volunteer to be a weapon?

For such a timid, cowardly and stammering person, could it be that under Wei Wuxian's command, he had enjoyed killing people in the past?

Back then, he got a bowl of lotus root soup as a gift from Jiang Yanli and carried it all the way from the mountain to the mass grave without spilling a drop. Although he couldn't drink it himself, he happily watched others finish it and asked what it tasted like. Imagine that for yourself. He killed Jiang Yanli's husband with his own hands. Does he feel better now?

While taking all the mistakes on himself, he also wanted to apologize to him.

Wei Wuxian grabbed Wen Ning's collar and looked at his pale and lifeless face. Suddenly, Jin Zixuan's dirty face, stained with dust and blood, appeared in front of his eyes. He was also pale and lifeless.

He also thought of Jiang Yanli, who finally married his sweetheart after all the hard work, and of Jin Zixuan and Jiang Yanli's son, Aling, the child he had named. He was only a little older, and he was holding Zhou Li Shang grabbed his father's sword, which made his parents extremely happy. In two days, it will be his full moon party.

Thinking about it in a daze, Wei Wuxian suddenly cried.

He said blankly: "...Who will tell me...what should I do now?"
