The atmosphere inside the castle was tense. In the great hall, Changze and Qiren spoke to each other more and more nervously. Next to them, Xichen tried to reassure the worried phoenix girl. They recently realized that when Shen Yue entered Wei Ying's room, she couldn't find the phoenix there. It was then discovered that Lan Zhan had also disappeared. As a result, a dispute quickly arose between the two ancestors. When the situation between the two ancestors was close to almost shouting at each other, they heard that the back door had opened. The quarrel stopped, and the people in the room turned towards the door, curious.

They all looked stunned at the wounded and unwelcome "guest" standing next to Wei Ying and Lan Zhan.

"What is he doing here?! How dare you bring him into my house, Lan Zhan!?!!" the elderly phoenix snarled angrily at Lan Zhan, but Yanli stood in front of him to keep him away from Lan Zhan.

"Father, please calm down!"

Wei Ying joined his sister and helped her.

Jiang Cheng was nearby when he heard that Lan Zhan had finally appeared. He quickly hurried to the hall.

"Wait dad, you misunderstood that!!" said Wei Ying

"Guards, capture him!" commanded Changze.

The two guards in the room stepped up to Lan Zhan, and when one of them grabbed Wen Chao and pulled him away from Lan Zhan, suddenly Jiang Cheng entered the room.

Jiang Cheng stormed unstoppably towards Lan Zhan and attacked him.

"You damn son of a b*tch!"

The situation was so unexpected and swift that Lan Zhan did not have enough time to prevent the snake's purple lightning strike. Lan Zhan slammed against the wall and fell to the ground.

"How many more times are you going to endanger Wei Ying's life?" shouted Jiang Cheng.

"Jiang Cheng! Enough!" said Xichen, but the snake ignored him.

In an instant, Jiang Cheng took one of the guards' swords and tried to stab Lan Zhan with it. But then he managed to stop himself halfway when he saw Wei Ying standing in front of Lan Zhan. The sharp blade of the sword was dangerously close to Wei Ying's neck.

Jiang Cheng's previously uncontrollable rage instantly turned into immense panic.

Everyone in the room looked at the three of them in shock. Wei Ying was the exception: he showed no fear on his face, only a cold, warning look at the snake.

Jiang Cheng had no idea, but then, with this action, he managed to make the Dark Phoenix appear for a short time. The Dark Phoenix saw this as a great opportunity to finally reveal the true face of Jiang Cheng to everyone.

"Jiang Cheng! Lower your hands immediately!" ordered Changze.

Jiang Cheng not only immediately lowered his hand, but in his fear he even dropped it to the ground. Wei Ying ignored this and stepped towards him.
