VII

Wei Wuxian trembled, his breath hitching.

"He- Wen- I-"

Jin Zixuan ran his tongue across his teeth, staring at the domineering figure on the throne. "Wen Rouhan."

Wen Rouhan declined on his throne, his legs crossed lazily. " your purpose?"

Xue Yang jumped up and down, blurting, " Red scary peacock Gege!"

Jin Zixuan choked while Wei Wuxian shook his head.

Wen Ruohan raised a brow, his lip twitching. But he straightened and scowled as a disciple rushed in, bowing deeply.

"Your Excellency! We've found your son, Wen Xu attempting to drown someone in the nearby lake!"

Wen Ruohan once again declined in his chair, musing, "Is he now?"

"Yes! We tried to stop him, but he refused!"

"Oh... leave them be. I always wanted only one child anyway."

Wei Wuxian comments, "..."

Jin Zixuan comments, "..."

Xue Yang comments, "Hahahaha!"

The disciple's eyes were downcast as he nodded slowly. "Yes, your Excellency."

Wen Ruohan shooed him away with a dismissive wave, turning his attention back onto his uninvited guests.

"Cat got your tongue, you Jin? And a... what sect?" He asked Wei Wuxian with genuine curiosity.

Wei Wuxian's lip trembled, be he managed to say, "Yunmeng Jiang Sect..."

"Why so nervous, little Jiang?"

Xue Yang jumped on the balls of his feet, clapping enthusiastically. "Xian-Gege thinks you are scary!"

Wei Wuxian snapped out of his terror to slap Xue Yang on the back of the head, scolding.

"Xue Yang!"

"But Xian-Gege," Xue Yang protested, "I can see the fear dripping off you like resentment!" He paused, his brows arching. "Never mind- Is that resentment?" He made a circular motion with one finger as he pointed.

Wei Wuxian inhaled and exhaled, causing the resentment to cease. He then slapped Xue Yang on the head again, a soft grin on his face. But, the resentment had caught the sect leader's interest.

"Oh?" Ruohan mused, his fingers drumming on the armrest. "Already able to control resentment, are we?"

Jin Zixuan, who had been oddly quiet, spoke up.

"Sect leader Wen?"

"Yes?"

"The games at Nightless city. Are you still planning on hosting?"

Wen Ruohan snorted. "I might..."

Jin Zixuan pursed his lips.

"What about Wen... Chao?"

"That piece of shit? Wen Xu is doing the honor of shoving his head underwater till there are no bubbles left."

Jin Zixuan commented, "..."

Wei Wuxian commented, "..."

Xue Yang commented, "..."

Wen Ruohan laughed uproariously, his usual cold eyes gleaming with mirth."Your expression!"

Suddenly, another disciple scuttled in, looking terrified. He ignored the other three, kneeling. His pale brown eyes darted around.

"S-sect leader!"

Wen Ruohan leaned forward, one arm resting on his knee. "Speak."

The disciple cupped his hands, looking back at the uninvited guests with a start before saying, "S-second Master Wen...he is..." He paused, looking a bit nervous.

"Dead?"

"No."

Wen Ruohan threw his hands up, sighing in exasperation. "ONE JOB!"

Jin Zixuan and Wei Wuxian looked at each other, a bit startled. 'How did this happen?'

Wei Wuxian suddenly remembered something. "Peacock-"

Jin Zixuan raised his eyebrow quizzically.

"Ok, remember the competition?" Wei Wuxian paused, almost slapping himself. "Forget that question. But, remember how grumpy Wen Chao was?"

Jin Zixuan nodded hesitantly. "Yes... he was quite in a bad mood."

"Exactly. He must have had another dip in the water before hosting with his father's permission."

Wen Ruohan had gotten bored just having a staring contest with a gremlin and interrupted.

"Pardon my interruption, boys, but I have a query."

The two look back as Xue Yang sighs gloomily. He had lost the contest.

"What is it?" They said in unison.

Wen Ruohan twirled a strand of his hair, finally saying, "How did you know that I was hosting an archery contest? I had not even said anything or sent invitations."

'Shit'
