Out of control

Description:
Some of the sect leaders cannot contain their hated and fury when they see Wei Ying sitting and eating pleasantly. They pick at him and are rude to him until they offend the wrong person, making Wei Ying loose all control of his emotions.

Lan Zhan stared wide eyes at the scene in front of him. His hands shaking, he tried to reach forwards but retracted it soon after. He didn't know what to do, what could he possibly do in this situation?

Wei Ying was trembling on the ground, knees to his chest and head in his hands. A black, sticky mist flowed violently around him, almost like he was trapped in whirlpool. His ears rang with the screams of years of built up resentment with no way to be rid of it.

They were peacefully eating with the rest of the cultivators when a uproar started out of the blue. The Yao sect leader seemed to have a deep hatred of the Yiling Patriarch and could no longer contain it.

"May I ask Zewu-Jun why is that beast allowed to sit here and eat with us after everything he has done?" Sect leader Yao gritted his teeth and said, glaring at the latter. Wei Ying's movements paused for a second, capturing his husband's attention, before carrying on eating as if nothing happened.

"He is now part of the Gusu Lan Sect, you must treat him with respect," Lan Xichen smiled falsely as he slightly glanced at his bother and his brother-in-law, noticing that Lan Zhan's eyes were almost visibly red.

"Part of the Gusu Lan Sect!? Why would you let someone like that in?" horrified gasps came from the crowd when they found out about Wei Ying's acceptance into the, supposedly, most righteous and respected clan.

"He is part of my family and therefore has been accepted as one of our own. Please mind your words, Sect Leader Yao, you are talking to a member of my sect and family" Lan Xichen spoke, his voice changing slightly, a warning tone emerging. However, most people were oblivious and continued to poke at the matter and others gossiped quietly amongst themselves.

"Who is so unlucky that they have ended up with him as a partner? Hahaha poor them. They must be so naive to believe that people can change. Once a murder, always a murder," Yueyang's Sect Leader chimed in, his turn to stir the pot of anger a bit more. This comment not only made Lan Xichen freeze but also Wei Ying. Did this old, good-for-nothing leader just call his Lan Zhan naive?

Rage filled Wei Ying's eyes as he thought about it more and more. How dare someone disrespect his boyfriend, and in front of everyone too, this was just too much.
"What...did you just...say...?" Wei Ying trailed off at the end, venom laced every word.

The room seemed to halt when they heard the anger dripping words that were quiet, however loud enough for the rest of the room to hear.
"I said, 'whoever has you as a partner is naive'. Oh and they of course have to be as unrighteousness and disgusting as you otherwise, why would they even associate with you?" the Yueyang leader laughed along with a few other cultivators that were seated around him, glaring daggers at Wei Ying.

Before anyone could even make one sound more, the smell of rage and resentment washed over the room. It was getting thicker by the second and people found it harder to breathe. Lan Zhan, who had previously kept his head down and tried to not hear the comments, snapped his head up, knowing the feeling and smell instantly. His gaze turned to the person next to him, eyes widening slightly with surprise.

Wei Ying was cone covered in a light coating of black mist, covering his entire body. The only part left visible was his eyes which had now turned a deep, blood-like red, shining menacingly.

"Wei Ying" Lan Zhan tried calling his love's name, an attempt to calm the rage the other felt. He knew why Wei Ying was reacting like this and he didn't blame him as he would be feeling the exact same. However, the difference is, Lan Zhan does not practice the dark path and therefore cannot do himself damage. Wei Ying on the other hand, can loose control easily if he becomes so enraged it could overtake him, causing him to become out of control.
