"Wangji knows that Wei Wuxian is not tolerated by immortal world, and is also an enemy of the Lan family. But Wangji thinks that what Wei Wuxian did was improperly punished." Lan Wangji knelt on the bluestone slab in the courtyard of the ancestral hall. The eyes and nose, the nose and the heart, very straight, and there is no wrinkle in the robe.

Just two feet in front of him, stood Lan Qiren, and Lan Xichen stood beside Lan Qiren's left hand: in his hand was holding a silver-white shark woven of about three feet long and one inch wide. The whip is exactly the precepts whip of the Lan family. Lan Xichen stared at Lan Wangji, the precepts whip seemed to weigh more than a thousand catties, and his hands trembled slightly.

In the main hall of the ancestral hall behind them, thirty-three elders of the Lan family, watching the three people in the courtyard silently in the flickering candlelight.

Lan Wangji's voice is low, without hesitation, and no changes in his voice, as if he is telling something that has nothing to do with him, but the tone is solemn, every word, every word reveals extremely firm thoughts, obviously There is not even a trace of regret.

Lan Xichen looked at Lan Wangji kneeling on the ground. There was obviously no wind, but he felt very cold. Hearing Lan Wangji's words in his ears, his eyelids jumped wildly, and he couldn't help but shudder.

Lan Qiren's complexion was three points darker than when he first came. He groaned a little, took a deep breath, and squeezed a breath, and finally asked: "Wangji, do you know how many cultivators Wei Wuxian killed on Qiongqi Road? How many cultivators did he killed in the Ever-lighting City? Such indiscriminate killing of innocents is called improper punishment?"

Lan Wangji lowered his eyebrows as he did before, and replied with the same voice as before: "Uncle, on the Qiongqi Road, Wei Wuxian drove Wen Ning to kill one hundred and three cultivators, but the cause is Lan family. They ambushed soldiers in the Qiongqi Road, with the intention to kill Wei Wuxian first. Wangji thinks, Wei Wuxian broke through the encirclement and protected himself from hurting others, which is not considered to be indiscriminate killing innocents.

After events of Qiongqi Road, Wenning and his sister Wenqing suicided in Jinling Tai to protect Wei Wuxian. Their bones were crashed to ashes. Wangji believes that since immortal world accepts the suicide of Wen's sister and brother, they must abide by their promises and resolve the grievances of Qiongqi Road. They should not violate their promise and fight against Wei Wuxian again, and this is the second.

Every-lighting City is a declaration of war by Fariy world who violated the agreement to defeat Wei Wuxian. Since it is a war, casualties are inevitable, and neither side is innocent. This is the third. "

Lan Xichen's complexion suddenly flushed, and he turned his head to look at Lan Qiren's face, his lips moved slightly, but there was no sound, only the hand holding the ring whip, trembing more.

Lan Qiren's hands that had been held behind him were tightly squeezed into fists. It seemed that he could not find a rebuttal for a while. He was taken aback for a while before blurting out: "A bunch of nonsense! A bunch of nonsense!" seemed furious.

Lan Xichen was afraid that Lan Qiren would whip directly under the furious rage, he was about to reach out and hold it, and he heard Lan Qiren pause again, his voice had returned to a steady state, and said, "Wei Wuxian has been cultivating ghosts, he has gone into evil. In the Ever-lighting City he sacrificed the Yin Tiger Talisman, which is a clear proof. If it weren't for him to have been enchanted, why would it not be the casualties of three thousand cultivators." At the last sentence, Lan Qiren's voice has been lowered, and his eyelashes have been lowered too.

Lan Xichen closed his eyes gently, and he saw the sea of blood, mountain of dead bodies, the shadows of swords that night. He heard scream higher and higher intertwined with Devil crying, and smelled blood of the living and the rancid corpses rushed over their faces. The blood on his face suddenly faded clean, just like Lan Wangji's face.
