The Black Dragon

chapter 29

In a room, slow footsteps approached with silence, Wei Ying slowly took out a talisman when suddenly..... A hand held him by the arm, preventing him from doing anything, trick or movement he had planned.

"Lan zhan! It was you, you almost scared me to death" Wei Ying exclaimed, touching his chest exaggeratedly while Wangji said nothing.

"Because you're here, why didn't you knock on the door?" Wei Ying asked, after all he was so immersed in his thoughts and fantasies that he did not notice the scandal that was in the palace, Wangji had knocked on the door more than three times but he did not respond, so he thought he was sleeping.

"I knocked, but Wei ying didn't respond" Lan wangji exclaimed seriously.

"Oh, is that so? Sorry, Lan Zhan, I didn't hear you," Wei Ying said with a smile. "Now tell me, what brings you here?" At that moment Wangji was wondering how he couldn't hear anything.

"Could it be that you missed this beautiful being that you didn't..."

"The necklace was stolen," he said without hesitation, leaving Wei Ying's mouth open.

"Lan zhan, what did you say...the necklace? It can't be but how is that possible, wasn't it in a safe place?" Wei Wuxian exclaimed.

"Wei Ying, we must go down," Wangji spoke, Wei Ying nodded and the two quickly went in search of the dragon king. On the way, they ran into many guards and disciples running from one side to the other. Until Wangji and Wei Ying ran into the dragon king and the emperor who, upon seeing them, rushed over.

"Master Wei Young Lan we have a problem"

"Yes, the necklace," Wei Ying said, surprising the two kings.

"That's right, we don't know how all this happened," commented the dragon king.

"We have no choice but to call all the leaders urgently," exclaimed the emperor, tensing Wei Wuxian, who began to think that he was going to meet old friends.

Lan Wangji and Wei Ying were returning to their respective rooms. On the way everything was silent and for Wei Wuxian it was suffocating. He considered himself a person who talked a lot, so he couldn't stand the silence anymore and spoke.

"Lan zhan, do you want to come to my room ?" At that moment, Wei Ying was wondering what the hell he was doing?

"Curfew" Wangji replied.

"Oh come on Lan Zhan we'll just talk for a while" Wei Ying said pleadingly. He didn't know why but he felt a need to be close to him.

"Mm" Wangji said accepting and so the two entered the room, Wangji took a seat at the table while preparing some tea, while Wei Ying sat on the bed.

"Lan zhan, do you think someone who works here stole it?"

"I doubt it," I reply.

"The bad thing is that he didn't leave any clues or footprints, if it wasn't any of the servants then who was it? According to what I understand, the human kingdom is protected by a barrier, no demon can enter and if that were to happen, that would be to say that the barrier is weakening"

"Not only the barrier but everyone, the kingdom is protected thanks to the spells of my race, every five years we have to strengthen the barrier and the streets again, my uncle told me that the demons every year try a different method to be able to get in"

"The demons? That's strange, when I spoke... I mean when a friend spoke with a demon, they told him that they had no interest in moving to the human world, that did disconcert me a little" commented Wei Ying, a little nervous. , Lan Wangji was just listening but didn't take into account what he said.
