The Black Dragon

chapter 15

⫷ Unexpected encounter.⫸

The walls of that tunnel suddenly broke when someone flew by, crashing into the other walls. Both Wangji and Wei Ying were perplexed by what had happened. When the dust from the rubble dispersed, they could see who had gone through that wall.

"Leader nie ming jue?" Lan Wangji exclaimed while he looked at him and was surprised "Young Lan Wangji, what are you doing here?" said the leader Nie Ming Jue coughing up a little blood, Lan Wangji got worried and approached immediately but he shook his hand indicating that he is fine.

"What happened?" Wangji asked.

"The kingdom of shadows" exclaimed with just those words, Lan Wangji understood while Wei Ying whispered "The kingdom of shadows, why does that name sound familiar to me?"

"All..."

"No...I'm sure you're not aware, but Dilong's men caught the others. When we found out, we divided the Jiang clan and I came together, but everyone was defeated," he said, coughing a little.

"And the others?" Wang Ji asked.

"They went to the capital because they sent demons" exclaimed Lan Wangji, clenching his fists and Wei Ying noticed it while the name that the leader had mentioned passed through his mind.

"What dilong, huh, why does that name sound so familiar to me?" Wei Wuxian called himself that.

"Who is he?" Leader Nie Ming Jue asked, standing up but they couldn't respond as laughter and a comment was heard from the other side of the wall. "Leader Nie Ming Jue is fine haha, I didn't think he would fall so quickly."

"That is?" Wang Ji asked.

"It's dilong, when they brought the four young men here they were in a kind of game, we wanted to enter unnoticed but we fell into their trap. Now we are in the game too, the game consists of beating that big guy who is there. If we win, he gives us a key that He will let us open a door but this is impossible" commented the leader Nie.

The game thus consisted of a large room, there were many giant statues while there was one larger statue sitting on a throne, the other statues were warriors while others were statues of angels with instruments, the thing was not to move.

"I'll help you!" Wei Ying exclaimed.

"Who are you?" asked leader Nie Ming Jue.

"Someone not important, let's go in," he said and then entered that room followed by Wangji and the Nie leader and to his surprise it was everything as the Nie leader had said, everyone was on the floor kneeling while the giant statue only looked at them quickly, the Nie leader He crouched down and made Wei Ying and Wangji bend down. The statue quickly looked towards where they were but did nothing. However, on a high part was a man with white hair and a mask watching.

"Leader Nie Ming Jue, did you find any more players?" that person commented.

"Oh, but it's Lan Wangji" shouted one of the masked men who was next to that white-haired man.

"You're right, but it's young Ian who saved us the search haha" exclaimed the white-haired man.

"..."

"And the one who accompanies us the most in this game is you..." said the man, looking at that young man who was next to Lan Wangji, but when he looked closely he could see who it was, a smile appeared on his face and then he spoke.

"You are wei..." but he couldn't say it since wei ying interrupted him after all, he didn't want anyone to know his true identity since, luckily for him, no one recognized him.

"Yes, that's me," Wei Ying exclaimed and then observed that man well until he remembered "Dilong."

"Haha, it looks like you recognized me. It took you a long time. That thing about having a bad memory wasn't a myth," he commented while laughing.

"Tcg and your bad temper either" Wei Ying exclaimed.

Wie wuxian hadn't realized it but all the attention was on him since he was a stranger to everyone and him meeting dilong the shadow king was a bit strange.

"Well since we have two more players this will be more fun then let's start the game" Dilong exclaimed and then walked away and left everyone with the statues.

"That bastard is gone," Wei Ying exclaimed.

"..."lan wangji.

"Who is he?" Wen Chao asked with annoyance.

"He is an acquaintance" Lan Wangji exclaimed immediately, leaving everyone surprised since they all knew that Lan Wangji had no friends and never left his room until these days. Wei wuxian was perplexed by what he said. He thanked him from the bottom of his heart so he played along. " we are friends, I know him very well."

"Oh you know him so tell me where you met" Jiang Cheng asked.

"Well that's a very long story."

"Silence, this is not the time for questions. Don't you see what situation we are in? We must decipher what he wants us to do or we will be crushed," Jin Zixuan exclaimed.

"You are right at this time we should calm down" said the leader jiang with a kind tone.

"But father..." said Jiang Cheng but the leader Jiang told him to shut up and he understood so with a bad face he just kept quiet.

"Well, tell me what this game is about," Wei Wuxian exclaimed.
