The disciples of immortal mountain never involved in anything nor did they interact with anyone, many who wanted to have a relationship with the celestial mountain were rudely turned down, they only got information from the lans of yin iron whereabouts , had their missions secretly and attended the classes following the rules.

"The Orchid room?" a cultivator asked as they stood before it.Nie huaisang spoke the same words he did in the past, the difference might be their closeness.

"Jiang-gongzi I'd say enjoy your stay, but the Jiang Sect's lotus pier is much more fun than here, isn't it?"

Jiang Cheng responded. "There aren't as many rules. We don't have to wake up this early either."

"Hm? We start at 5:00 am here. It's not that bad, right?" Huaisang asked as his fan crept open.

"It's ok, i am already used to it once" replied Jiang Cheng confusing Nie heir, jiang Cheng went inside before Huaisang could ask anything. He still heard what huaisang said further to others.

A piece of advice for you, this place doesn't tolerate misbehavior," Nie Huaisang explained, leaning in to whisper conspiratorially. "Now that you're in Gusu, make sure to never mess with this one man."

"Who? Lan Qiren?" asked a jin disciple.

"Not that old man, but his favorite student-Lan Zhan, one of the Lan Brothers."

"Lan Zhan of the Twin Jades of Lan? Lan Wangji?"

"Of course. He's a perfect example of the legendary 'other people's children' that parents tell you to compare yourself to. Heavens, he's the same age as us, but he's got no youthful energy. He's in charge of discipline. Everyone here fears him, he only ever had one friend when we went to celestial mountain apart from him, no one ever dared to even approach him, only Hua xiong could be close to him , try to not get into trouble with him." Nie huaisang went on and on about how lan wangji and lan qiren are similar and punish everyone who lacks discipline, they were so busy and didn't notice the white robed man standing just behind them glaring.

Suddenly a disciple turned back while listening only to meet the glaring eyes of the person they are gossiping about, all noticed his stunned face and looked back.

Under the others feared gaze, lan wangji narrowed his eyes further into a disapproving glare.

Nie Huaisang silently slid away, all hurried into the class silently.

"Good morning, sir!" the students chorused as the disciple exchange began.

In response to his student's greeting, Lan Qiren merely gave a considering hum, then ordered the students to "Be seated."

With a soft thump, an enormous scroll unrolled itself until it was crossing the entirety of the room. Thousands of small letters were just barely visible for students sitting.

To Nie Huaisang, who remembered how his last stay at Gusu went, the scroll brought about an unnerving sensation of dread.

"House rules of the Lan Clan:" Lan Qiren recited in near-monotone. "No private fighting, no promiscuity, no killing inside the city, no wandering around at night-"

"-no shouting, no rushing, no smirking, no sitting hunched over-"

a sharp wack struck the classroom as Lan Qiren cut off, noticing some people drowsy and some not paying attention "I'm reciting them one by one because no one reads them. Let's see if anybody use ignorance as justification for breaking the rules.."
