As Nie Mingjue rushed to Lanling with Nie Huaisang, Lan Xichen talked with Chang Ping and convinced her to go with him to Gusu. Though Chang Ping was reluctant at the beginning, she eventually agreed to it. They set off, arriving at Gusu in one day by maneuvering the sword. Lan Xichen led Chang Ping to Lan Qiren, as they entered the room, Chang Ping shivered then bowed, Lan Qiren:
"Xichen, who is this?"
Lan Xichen:
"Uncle, she is Chang Ping."
Lan Qiren:
"Why did you bring her here?"
Lan Xichen:
"Uncle, she came to Unclean Realm while I was there, she had been running away from Jin Guangshan and his subordinates. I brought her here to help."
Lan Qiren:
"Help with what? Her sight can't be restored."
Lan Xichen:
"Uncle, her cultivation might be accelerated."
Lan Qiren:
"You would risk a qi deviation."
Lan Xichen:
"Uncle, I know, that is why I brought her to Gusu."
Chang Ping was nervous, her head was down as Lan Qiren and Lan Xichen were talking, Lan Qiren continued:
"Do you have any ideas what you have gotten into? Do you need one more discipline whip?"
Lan Xichen:
"Uncle, the entire Yueyang Chang Sect got annihilated by Xue Yang, you already know this, you were there when Jin Guangshan protected Xue Yang. Chang Ping also got poisoned by corpse poison, it was only her eyes, she managed to flee the scene before it got worse."
Lan Qiren:
"What nonsense is that? Corpse poison, Xichen, you were an example disciple, now I can't recognize you."
Lan Xichen:
"Uncle, I am telling the truth, the box Wangji retrieved from Xue Yang had corpse poison in it."
Lan Qiren:
"How do you know?"
Lan Xichen:
"Wangji told me they handled the box."
Lan Qiren sighed and said:
"With who?"
Lan Xichen:
"Uncle, it is over. The box is now in Koi Tower."
Lan Qiren:
"We should bring that thing to Gusu."
Lan Xichen:
"Uncle, no. Both brother Xiao and brother Song are more than capable of handling such an item, besides, we should put a taboo on this if we want to maintain the peace of the cultivation world. Do you really want to repeat the incident of Jin Guangshan?"
Lan Qiren stayed silent. Lan Xichen bowed and left with Chang Ping. Chang Ping was upset, Lan Xichen said:
"Rest assured, nobody will hurt you in Cloud Recesses. Uncle just wants to rest, he is still mad about Wangji becoming cultivation partners with Xian."
Chang Ping scratched her head as Lan Xichen took her to the Cold Spring, he said:
"Water is shallow, don't be scared, you can use it to heal or cultivate."
