I'm sorry... {WILL UNDERGO SERIOUS EDITING}

Chapter 5🥀

"Now, let's talk." The man stroked the fox with a smile.

Wei WuXian slowly lowered his sword. "Fine, we can talk. But, if you harm them....."

"You really think I will harm them, patriarch? I have no interest in those loud brats." The man tilted his head. "Hm. No interest in knowing who I am? Quite interesting." He laughed and Huizhong let out a soft purr.  

Wei WuXian grit his teeth from pain and annoyance. "I don't care who you are. What do you want?" 

"Hmm~ Good question. I want.... You."

—————————

Wei WuXian took a step back, aghast. "I'm only for Lan Zhan!"

The man facepalmed. "Not what I meant."

"Phrasing, man, don't let your enemy get the wrong idea!"

"Yes..." The man grit his teeth. "I. Know." He smoothed out his robes and tried to gain back his composure. "We just need you." He reached for Huizhong, but drew back. "To be.. more clear." He paused before continuing. "M-my father needs you." 

Wei WuXian tilted his head. "Your father?"

"Yes." 

"Your father."

"Yes." 

The demonic cultivator nodded. "Well, tell about him.. er.."

"It's Guang Feng." Guang Feng said, looking away. "Worst name for someone like me."  He laughed bitterly. 

Wei WuXian smiled. "No. You might become the light for someone else, ya know. You could be reborn into a new life with someone you like." He looked at Huizhong with a knowing glance. The fox gave a soft purr. 

Guang Feng scoffed. "Yeah sure." His voice was full of doubt. His inhaled and spoke. "I want you  to be honest with me, Yilling Patriarch. Do I seem like a person who would do this?"  He gestures at the still unconscious juniors. 

"Mnnnnnn...... maybe?"

"Maybe?!"

Wei Wuxian chuckled. "Yes, maybe."

"You wound me."

"That's my specialty."

Crossing his arms, Guang Feng puffed out his cheeks.

'What happened to the man that wanted to take me hostage? Have I brought out a forbidden side of him?' Wei WuXian glanced around the forest, now on high alert. 'I feel strange... something, no someone is watching our every move.'

———————

A small groan was heard.

"S-senior Wei? Where?" Ouyang Zizhen slowly rubbed his eyes. He looked around groggily. Sporting his Senior, he smiled. "Senior Wei!" When he saw the other man with him, his reached into his robes. "Senior Wei, that's the person that knocked us out! Why is he here?"

"Whoa. Ouyang, calm down. He is fine." Wei WuXian walked over to the juniors. "Don't do anything-"

"Why is he here?!"another junior yelled. He pulled out a signal for the Jiang Sect. It exploded in the sky, displaying the purple symbol of the sect. 

"-Stupid." The demonic cultivator finished, sighing. 

Guang Feng paled. "Shit, shit SHIT!" He whirled around wildly. "Huizhong, grab those children! We need to go, NOW!" 

"Wait." Wei WuXian said, grabbing onto the person's arm. "Why are you so worried?"

Trembling, Guang Feng said, "m-my father said he would come if there were any signal that I was found out. That." He pointed at the still glowing symbol in the sky. "Is what he is waiting for." 

"Well, Isn't that just marvelous." Wei WuXian growled, tightening his grip. 

"That's why we need to go! HuiZhong, did you get them all?"

Huizhong growled softly and nodded.  

The demonic cultivator, Huizhong, and Guang Feng ran, their footsteps echoed through the tree. "Faster!" Guang Feng gasped. "We need to go faster!" 

Wei Wuxian growled. "There is no use in running. A group has already caught up."

"What?!"

"Yep. I can sense some in the trees and some on the ground. About four in the trees and twenty three on the ground." 

A group of figures appeared in the moonlight. 

"Good senses, Yilling Patriarch."

—————————-

"Guang Feng!" A man stepped out from the group. He wore navy blue robes as well. His white  hair was short and tied into a small ponytail. (Sorta imagine Xue Yang's hair in the donghua) His eyes were a dark green with a gradient of of sea green. His pale skin was almost snowy white. The man crossed his arms. "What did I tell you about being disobedient?"

"Father..." Guang Feng approached the man before bowing deeply. "I apologize. It was my mistake." He yelped as he was slapped harshly across the face. 

"You damn IDIOT!" The man snarled. "You were not supposed to befriend him! You were supposed to capture him!" His fists clenched and unclenched. "What orders do you not understand!? Fist I tell you to kill the beast, but you keep it as a pet! Now I asked you to capture the Yilling Patriarch and you fucking befriended him!" 

"I'm sorry..!" Guang Feng yells, straightening. "I'm sorry I'm not the son you wanted, father." 

Huizhong whines forlornly.

Wei WuXian winces slightly. This scene is almost a sick reminder of his younger days at Lotus Pier. His back suddenly throbs, catching up with him. Gritting his teeth, his interfered with the conversation. "Excuse me.. I would like to know why you are trying to take me." He gave a fake smile. 

The man turned to the cultivator. With a sneer.

"resurrecting the dead."

—————————-

Wei WuXian's eyes narrowed. "You are playing a dangerous game." He grasped Subian. "Tell me, why do you want to resurrect the dead?" 

"Personal reasons." Was the only response.

"Aiya. Such a terrible response." 

"You..!" 

Guang Feng stepped up. "Father. Let us just go. Forget this whole incident and let's move on." 

"Shut up!" The man said, raising a hand threateningly. "You good for nothing! Your brother would have fulfilled my request immediately. To bad he is gone. Now I'm only let with you." He made a face of disgust. 

"Don't bring A-Huo into this! Besides, he would do the same as me! He just listened to you because he really cared about our family!" 

Wei WuXian looked over at Huizhong, who was wining softly, staring at Guang Feng. 'This really needs to stop.' "Enough!" He shouted, making everyone freeze. He glanced at the juniors who had different expressions. Pity, anger and annoyance. "What is the point of this? Why do you seek this power? Tell me. Why?" 

The man scoffed. "None of your concern."

"Well, you want to use my power. Of corse I need a reason to help you, stupid." 

"You..!"

————————

"Wei WuXian!" 

Wei WuXian turned, a goofy grin displayed in his face. He spread his arms. "CheungCheung! So nice of you to come join me!" 

"Shut up." Was Jiang Cheung's response.

The man stiffened. He narrowed his eyes. "Sect leader Jiang," He hissed. "This does not concern you. Leave." 

The sect leader clenched his fists as a familiar ring  crackled. "No. I got the signal. So here I fucking am, bitch."  

Hello. So I'm going to end this chapter here. Hope you are enjoying it!
