Chapter 28 - 『Xuanwu Of Slaughter』

In the end, Cale had no choice but to join his younger brothers in going to Qishan Wen thanks to some bastard that kept talking in his head.

- Would you like to hear a story?

'No, please shut up.'

Killing the ghoul in one swift, Cale just groans in annoyance before sheathing his sword in his side.

"Xun-ge, do you feel alright? No ringing in your ears?" Wei Ying asks in worry.

"I'm fine. Rather, please tell Lan Wangji to stop glaring at me in every possible chance he have. The incident happened weeks ago!"

Cale is frightened on how Lan Wangji would look at him dead in the eyes, like he did something unforgivable(Cale knew what he did to Lan Xichen is indeed unforgivable, but it's not like he would stare in retaliation when Lan Wangji himself keeps glaring at Wei Ying, his younger brother!).

"Young Master Wei Xianghuan really is astounding as the rumors are saying! Surely with someone with your talent should be in Qishan Wen." A woman suddenly says, her chest swelling as Cale felt disgusted at the sight.

Cale just scoffs, finding it funny how the Wens are provoking him more openly now.

- Who is this whore?

For once, Cale agrees with the voice in his head.

The redhead laughs, as if mocking, "Surely you jest. I quite like my life in Yunmeng, thank you very much for the offer though."

Cale didn't have the leisure to look at the girl's face as he turns his back away, pulling the string of his bow and aimed it a ghoul.

A sound of shrieking erupted before it died, making Cale sighs as he stretched his limbs that are starting to get sore.

Cale then felt a hand caress his back, sending shivers before he scowled at the woman who was pestering him earlier.

"I am quite serious about my suggestion, Young Master Wei."

Before him and his brothers could intervene at the woman's coquetry, Lan Wangji steps in and grabs Cale by the arms.

"Huan-ge, there are corpses running around near us. Please help me exterminate them." Lan Wangji says with a straight face, albeit Cale could see the younger's red ears.

"Lan Zhan?" Wei Ying blurts, dumbfounded.

Jiang Cheng then exclaims, "What the fuㅡ"

Cale then smiles jovially, "Sure! Lead the way."

The four of them were pulled away from the woman, mainly thanks to Lan Wangji who was now frowning at Cale.

'What did I do now?!'

"Lan Zhan! Lan Zhan! I didn't know you call Xun-ge, Huan-ge! What's with the sudden change of heart?"

Lan Wangji's lips turn into a thin line, continuing to glare at the redhead who was confused on why he was being given such gaze.

"Huan-ge should stay faithful to brother, he is married to Gusu Lan. Therefore, my brother-in-law."

Cale wants to run away and bury himself where the prying eyes won't get to see him.

"Wait wait wait wait, married?! To who?! Lan Xichen?! Since when?!" Jiang Cheng yells, waiting for his gege to tell them it's just a joke orchestrated to prank them.

"Wait, Wangji. Your brother and I already talked about it. It was just a one time incident and it happened weeks ago goddammit!" Cale tries to reason, in which the younger's stare just became sharper.
