Chapter 27: Drunk Lan Wangji

Chapter Twenty Seven

When his foot landed on the empty land outside, a black dog was already waiting for him.

Wei Wuxian spoke, "Did you find it?"

The dog raised its head as though saying that doubting was like insulting his ability.

Elder Heiying, "I found the traces of the remaining unclaimed Yin Iron coming from the South-West."

Wei Wuxian's expression turned solemn, "This is our only chance. If it's in the South-West, then we should start with the city of Yueyang."

Wei Wuxian had used the Stygian Tiger Amulet to break the deadlock in the Jingchu borders during his past life. He had made a promise to never do that again, but he was still not strong enough to change the course of events. He thought that after cutting the force of the Wen Sect by supporting the branch families to rebel against their own sect, somethings would be prevented. However, he was wrong.

But the Stygian Tiger Amulet was the only thing keeping the Burial Mounds in order and Wei Wuxian was also well aware that he was not powerful enough to control it. It was also the reason why he only used it twice in his past life. This was why he wanted to search the missing piece of the Yin Iron that the Jin Sect had demanded from him together with the Stygian Tiger Amulet in the Koi tower. He would forge it to a tamer version of the Stygian Tiger Amulet, making sure that this one would only settle on one single master.

Before that, he still had things to do. Wei Wuxian picked up the dog, carrying it in his arms without any trace of the previous discomfort.

Elder Heiying couldn't stop his sneer, "Are you really going to leave that brat alone? Truly cruel."

Wei Wuxian raised an eyebrow cluelessly, "And?"

Elder Heiying would hit this idiot if he had arms, "And didn't you say that you will rely on him because you want to show your trust on him bla bla bla?"

Wei Wuxian didn't speak for a moment before bursting into laughter. Holding it he said, "Who said that I'm not going with Lan Zhan in Yueyang?"

Elder Heiying scoffed as though asking Wei Wuxian if who he was taking as an idiot to believe his words.

Wei Wuxian, "Old Black, though I am happy that you are very supportive with mine and Lan Zhan's relationship, you should still be on my side. And besides, I'm just leaving him temporarily. It had been five months since I visited the Burial Mounds. Wen Qing is also occupied on her side. At least one of us should check on the Wen remnants, no? Ugh! Most of all, I miss my A'Yuan!"

"You should have said this earlier so that I wouldn't assume things!" Elder Heiying wouldn't admit that he was feeling embarrassed right now.

Wei Wuxian chuckled, "Alright, alright. I'm sorry."

"You're sorry for what?" Wei Wuxian turned around, revealing the owner of the arrogant voice who interrupted his conversation with the dog. This man was dressed lavishly and was clearly drunk. Beside him was an equally wasted man. The main point, both of them were so ugly, Wei Wuxian didn't know what to say. You cannot blame him after being with Lan Wangji every day for five months.
