Lost Control

They took wei ying

Author's POV

"Brother"
Lan wangji said in a broken voice. Lan xichen didn't said anything but continued to hug him tightly.

The crowd was shocked to see Lan zhan. What more shocking was that his clothes were bloody.

Lan xichen,"wangji where have you been ? Are you hurt?"

Lan zhan didn't respond anything . He just stood there like a statue.
Seeing that his brother was not saying anything Lan xichen broke the hug to look at his brother properly.

In the crowd many people were looking at lan wangji with disgust for supporting that demonic cultivator.

Looking at Lan wangji covered in blood they were satisfied.

"Serves him right. He supported that demon and now that demon hurt him."

"That's called karma."

"I can't believe that a lan disciple will take path of evil."

"You are right. He is such a disappointment."

Some people from nie clan and many from other small clans were insulting Lan zhan continuously.
Lan members felt very bad listening to such comments for Lan wangji. But they couldn't say anything to them. Firstly they didn't know how to argue and secondly they didn't know about what they should argue as Lan zhan indeed supported wei ying.

Lan xichen ignored the crowd. His brother's reputation was no longer important for him. All he wanted now was his brother to be safe. He didn't care what people said anymore.

Lan xichen asked Lan wangji in horror.
"Wangji why there is so much blood? Are you hurt, answer me."

Lan zhan looked at his brother with dead eyes filled with tears.

Lan xichen getting no response from his brother grabbed his shoulder and shook him again repeating his question.
"Wangji what happened? Say something. Why there is so much blood?"

Lan zhan said in a broken voice,
"Not mine."

Lan xichen, "what do you mean wangji?"

Lan zhan,"wei ying's."

Lan xichen's eyes widened listening this.
Lan xichen,"you mean this is childe Wei's blood?"

Lan zhan nodded to his brother.
The crowd was shocked listening this. Ofcourse it was a happy news for them but also very shocking. They couldn't understand who have hurt the person who himself was capable to win over the whole cultivation world.

The crowd started talking among themselves celebrating for the demonic cultivators death. Murmuring sounds echoed in the place.
Lan qiren didn't knew what to feel about this news. He wanted wangji to leave wei ying's side. And also he was happy about this news. For him wei ying was demonic cultivator and this was his biggest mistake in life. Even if he was not responsible for the deaths at never night but still he did allot of other crimes. He killed jin zixuan and he supported those wens. Lan qiren never wanted such a person to be Lan wangji's companion. But his nephew never listened to him. He was happy that finally wei ying was dead and he don't have to worry for Lan wangji.
But seeing His nephew now Lan qiren doubted was it really a good news. His nephew looked broken.

Lan xichen ignoring the murmurings of the crowd asked Lan zhan to confirm what has really happened.
Lan xichen,"wangji is childe wei hurt? "

Lan zhan could  not support himself on his legs anymore. He fell on his knees and said,
"Brother they took wei ying away."

The people stopped talking when they heard what Lan zhan said.
Someone from the crowd said,

"Second master Lan is wei wuxian not dead?"

Everyone was quite as they waited for Lan zhan's answer.
But lan zhan didn't said anything. He was sick of these people.
They just wanted the news of his wei ying's death to celebrate. To mock at him, to insult him. He couldn't understand how can someone celebrate others death. The dead person also have a family. How will they feel if someone celebrate their loved ones death. These people were terrible.

"Second master Lan can you tell is he dead or not instead of crying as if you saw your mother's death."

"That's right. Wei wuxian's death is the happiest day in our entire cultivation history."

Lan xichen's blood boiled listening to such comments. Couldn't these people see his brother's condition. They  were continuously insulting wei wuxian. Don't they understand that their words can he like knifes for someone.
He could no longer control his anger. He yelled at his top voice.
Lan xichen, "quite."

The crowd was shocked listening Lan xichen's voice. They never heard Lan xichen shouting at anyone. He was the calmest person they have ever met. But now anger could be clearly seen in Lan xichen's eyes.

Lan xichen,"open your mouths and you will be silenced. "
He gave the crowd a death glare and then again turned towards his brother.Then he said in a soft voice,
"Wangji let me everything properly."

Lan zhan,"brother, I failed to save wei ying"

**********
Jiang clan and jin clan were now walking on their way with their copies walking with them.
Jin guangshan was now walking with them by the support of his clan members as he was injured.
No one dared to say anything as their copies were next to them. They feared that they will be killed by them any moment.

No one till now discovered the fact that they could order their copies just by talking to them in mind.
They continued to walk in hope to find a way to get out soon.

Their steps stopped when they heard a familiar voice.

"Acheng come to me. See you have a nephew now. Won't you give your blessings to him."

Jiang Cheng felt his grip tightening to his sword. He took a deep breath to calm himself.
'No I can't turn around. Its not shijie. Shijie is dead.'

He was about to move  forward when he heard his sister again.
It was no longer soft voice. Her voice showed anger.

"Acheng how could you kill Axian. He is our brother. You stood against him when he did nothing wrong. You supported those stupid cultivators and stood against your own brother. How could you do this acheng. I feel shameful to call you my brother."

Tears fell from Jiang Cheng eyes as he heard this.

Jiang Cheng,"no no , shijie please don't say this. I didn't. I never wanted to kill him."

"Acheng don't call me shijie. You are no longer my brother."

Footsteps of someone walking away could be heard.

Jiang couldn't believe what he heard. He disappointed his sister that much. His sister is ashamed to have brother like him.
Jiang Cheng,'no I can't let it happen. I need to apologize to shijie.
She will forgive me. I am her brother. She has always loved me.'

Jiang Cheng was in a panic mode. All he wanted now was to rush to his sister and  ask for forgiveness.
