Reap What You Sow

Chapter 5

Since the Jiangs had arrived in the Unclean Realm, things were just not the same. Demanding that the sects should help them take their sect back. Even though they were told that it was way too dangerous and that there isn't enough manpower to do it anyway. which led to them all being called cowards. To them, it did not matter that the Cloud Recess were also taken, and even though Lan Wangji and his brothers heart were burning to take the Cloud Recess back. They knew that it would be a suicide mission at best. So now, in the camp, the already tense atmosphere are being made unbearable by the Madame Yu, and her son and the husband are not enough to make them see sense. At least their daughter are helping with the injured.

Lan Wangji and his brother Lan Xichen were taking a break from all the unnecessary stress and drama by enjoying a cup of tea in Lan Xichen's tent. Looking into his brothers face, he noticed the small crease between his brows.

"Wangji, is everything fine?". He asked, which in turn earned him a confused look from his brother.

"It seems that you have something on your mind." Lan Xichen elaborate. Lan Wanji looked down at his cup of tea before he spoke.

"Brother, do you think Wei Ying are still alive out there?". Xichen thought about his answer for a while before he spoke.

"Honesty, I do not know Wanji. I would like to believe if he was. He would have joined by now. Don't you think so?". Wangji shook his head slowly before he spoke.

"Not necessarily. Wei Ying would not want to be here. He would be out there helping the common people, seeing to it that they are safe from this war. " Lan Zhan said, looking at his brother.

"I guess. I wish we could do more. We are losing ground rapidly, and I fear we will lose this war. We just don't have the manpower. " Xichen said as concerns were shown on his face.

"We need a miracle if we want to win, or we will all be at the mercy and under Wen Rouhan's thumb." Lan Zhan said.

"At least the Jin had join. Not as much as we would've liked, but still. " Xichen spoke.

"Brother, I want to ask for permission to rejoin the fight with the other men." Lan Zhan asked, hopefully. He can't just sit here and wait. He needs to do something anything.

"Wangji, I do not know if it is a good idea. I know you are anxious, but think about it. " Xichen says.

"Brother, whether I am here or in the field ,it does not make any difference. I can't just sit here and do nothing. I will join sect heir Jin and his team. " Lan Wangji said as he looked at his brother. Xichen had no choice but to agree, knowing his brother he would go even if he said no.

"Thank you brother". Wangji said and finished his tea. Xichen just nods his head. The two soon finished and walked out of the tent. Lan Wangji made his way towards the Jin tent and Xichen towards the war room to inform Mingjue that Wangji would be joining the Jin.

As Lan Wangji nears the Jin sect heirs , ent screaming greets him.

"I will go with. I have every right to kill as many Wens ,or did you forget what they did to my sect." He heard the Jiang sect heirs voice.

Wangji sighs deeply. This is a time to work toge, her, but all they've been doing is screaming and demanding. If he should go with them and mysteriously disappeared during one of these scouts, then nobody needs to know that he the Honorable Lan Wangji had any hand in it. He would even look mournful and regretful that he could not save him. Lan Wangji opened the flap to make his is, presence known. Luckily, the Jin sect heir just looked up at that time.

"I am just here to inform sect heir Jin that I will join you from now on. I hope it will be fine with you."Lan Wangji said with a bow.

"We can need all the help we can get. Thank you, second young master lan. This one appreciates it very much. " Jin Zixuan said with a bow of himself.
