Calla Lily

Chapter 03

"JIN LING... WHAT DID YOU??" the voice of an older Jiang Cheng rang across the room as the rest present were still looking at the older versions of Lan Wangji, Lan Xichen, Jiang Cheng, Wei Wuxian, Nei Huaisang and 4 senior disciples of unknown origin.

"Ohhhhh so that's what the array was for?" the young man in Ouyang Clan robes said with a smile a little too big for the current situation, while the rest of the younger boys looked at him with wide eyes that said

"Oh... really, we didn't know"

"Jiujiu!! I didn't do anything it was that stupid Lan, he touched it!!" the young man in Jin clan clothes spoke as he looked at the older man as if looking for the closest escape route!!

"Who the hell are you calling stupid... you..." the Lan with the inner member ribbon yelled making many wonders if he's real Lan or not.

"WHO THE HELL ARE YOU ALL?? ANSWER THAT FIRST?!!" the voice of Nei Mingjue rang as the visitors all looked at him as if they've seen a ghost when suddenly

"DA-GE!!! YOU'RE ALIVE!!! I MISSED YOU SOO MUCH!!" the voice of Nei Huaisang rang as he ran to his older brother hugging him with a strength the older man never knew his brother had or is it has... but understood the meaning of his words since his little brother was wearing clothes of the clan leader. Then annoyance came to see him not carrying his saber, matter for another time he thought and let the smaller man hug him tight as if he may vanish. While his younger current brother looked at the scene with eyes full of tears after coming to the same conclusion.

"A-Cheng, A-Xian... you have aged well" a voice both the Sandu Shengshou and the Yiling Patriarch wished to hear for almost more than 20 years rang while the men could only rush up to her and fall to their knees begging for forgiveness.

"A-jie... I'm sorry, I'm sorry... I didn't keep you, him... us safe. I'm sorry I ... I... I hurt so many... A-jie... I... "the older Jiang Cheng cried out while

"Shijie.... Shijie, I'm sorry I didn't mean it. It was my fault... you that pea.... I'm sorry... I'm sorry... you can hate me, hit me, even kill me I won't stop you" the older Wei Wuxian cried as both Jiang brothers held their sister's skirt crying begging for forgiveness from a sister who will always give it to her brothers even if she has no idea why they're begging for it.

Gently coming to her knees, the young lady of the Jiang Clan touched her older versions of her brothers' faces and smiled wiping their tears

"I'm sure you did all you could... nothing that happened was your fault ok? How about this once we sort out what happened here, I make you both some soup? Hmm would you like that?" she asked as the men looked at each other with a sad smile and hugged her.

"Shijie, then if you don't mind can our friends have some too... even they could use a Shijie special soup right now" the older Wei Wuxian spoke looking at the others mostly the Jin boy who had a sad smile while his eyes were full of tears.

During this time the current Lan members and a certain Jiang member were looking at the older jade twins... They looked even more even more beautiful than they were now and carried an air of power and authority. The older jades walked up to their clan and bowed to them.

"Xichen, Wangji..." the older grandmaster looked at his nephews he raised as his with pride. Both looked stunning and to see the ranks they rise to were enough to make him smile enough to tear his cheeks.

"Shufu" they bowed

"Xiongzhang/ Lan Xichen, Lan Wangji/ Wangji" the older Lan Wangji greeted them while the older Jade did the same. And the younger first jade saw how his brother looked far happier, contended and more peaceful than he looks now even before the war and smiled having a hunch on why his brother looks like this.
