"Great news! Wei WuXian has died!"

"what ?? what is happening ?", Wei WuXian exclaimed.

Less than a day has passed since the siege in LuanZang Hill, and the news spreads through the cultivation world as if it sprouted wings, surpassing even the speed of warfare. For a while, from the most prominent clans to rogue cultivators, everyone is discussing the siege that was lead by the Four Great Clans and followed by hundreds of smaller ones.

" It seems like showing us the past", XiChen figured it out.

"But how is it possible ? ", Lan JingYi asked. He was confused just like the others.

"Everything we have been going through today is impossible", Jin Ling answered back.

The elders were not sure if they could bear to witness everything again. There were a lot of things they did wrong. They knew it.

"The Yiling Patriarch has died? Who could have killed him?"

"Who other than his shidi, Jiang Cheng, putting an end to his own relative for the greater good. Jiang Cheng led the Four Clans of Yunmeng Jiang, Lanling Jin, Gusu Lan, and Qinghe Nie to destroy his "den"-LuanZang Hill."

"I must say, good riddance!"

"Good riddance indeed! We finally eliminated this scourge."

"If not for the Yunmeng Jiang clan's adopting and teaching him, he would have been a hobo living on the streets, let alone causing mayhem as bold as the ones these days. The head of the Jiang clan raised him as her own child, yet he defected them and became the enemy of the cultivation world, bringing shame upon the the Jiang clan, even leading to its near extermination. He is the prime example of biting the hand that feeds him!"

"Jiang Cheng allowed this fellow to live for too long. If I were him, at the time of the defection, I wouldn't have just stabbed him. In fact, I would have thoroughly examined the disciples of the clan again, so that he doesn't do those crazy things he did later on. Who cares about the so called 'considerations' that he gave to his childhood friend."

The said Jiang Cheng couldn't raise his head. He never wanted to get reminded of those times. The guilt is creeping into his heart. Even without looking, he could sense the burning glares aiming at him. Wei WuXian held his husband's hand tight.

"That's merely hearsay. Although Jiang Cheng was one of the main forces, he did not give Wei WuXian the final blow. Because he cultivates the Demon Path, Wei WuXian's powers had backfired and he was ripped to pieces."

Wei WuXian could feel his husband shuddering in his hands. Nobody knew how exactly he died. Or whether these rumors were True or if it's just an exaggeration.
