A few moments later came the sound of jade knocking against each other. It sounded as if somebody had put something onto the table and pushed it over.
The first to speak was Lan XiChen, “What does this mean?”
Somebody spoke, “To return to you, Brother.”
It was Jin GuangYao.
"Told you it was him." said Wei Wuxian with proud face.
"No one argues." said Jin Zixuan.
"But, what did he wants to return?" asked Nie Huaisang.
"Is that even important?" asked Jiang Cheng.
"Every detail is important, Wanyin." said Lan Xichen.
Lan XiChen, “I have already given this to you.”
Jin GuangYao, “The token of passage has never failed before. Now that it has failed, it’s time for it to be returned to its rightful owner.”
"Why would you give a token to someone who isn't a Lan?" asked Lan Qiren.
"I don't know, shufu." said Lan Xichen.
Wei WuXian understood now. Since ZeWu-Jun and LianFang-Zun had quite a good relationship, Lan XiChen had given Jin GuangYao a token of passage as well so that he could visit freely. However, it was likely that within the past few days he had either edited the prohibitions of the Cloud Recesses’ barrier or retracted the permission of Jin GuangYao’s token of passage. When Jin GuangYao came to visit, he was refused permission to enter, and thus he voluntarily returned the token.
"Don't do that again." said Lan Qiren.
"A token of passage is very important to the sect. No matter how close you are to that person, you don't have to give him a token of passage." he added.
"They must use it for a bad purpose." he continued.
"Don't worry, shufu. I won't do such thing again." said Lan Xichen.
Like Lan WangJi, Lan XiChen didn’t know how to feign compliance either. Jin GuangYao backed off his advance, while Lan XiChen said nothing. A moment later, he spoke, “What did you come for?”
Jin GuangYao, “We still don’t have any news on HanGuang-Jun and the YiLing Patriarch. I didn’t let anyone search the Cloud Recesses, and many sects are already in doubt with many objections. Brother, whenever it works for you, it’d still be best for you to open the doors for two hours. Then I’ll be able to take people over and deal with the situation.”
"Maybe, Jin GuangYao already knew that the two of them are hidden in Cloud Recesses." said Nie Huaisang.
"That's possible. But, why didn't he search it way more earlier?" asked MianMian.
"He might be planning something." said Jin Zixuan.
"Looks like he have a lot of plans." said Nie Mingjue.
Wei WuXian had thought that he was here to demand a search. He didn’t expect at all that Jin GuangYao would say such a thing, as though not at all interested in searching where the YiLing Patriarch had gone. He couldn’t help but feel somewhat surprised. On the other side of the screen, Jin GuangYao continued, “Brother, what’s wrong?”
Lan XiChen, “Nothing.”
Jin GuangYao, “If you’re worried about WangJi, then please relax. HanGuang-Jun’s character is upright and honest. All of the sects have seen this throughout the years. He must be only doing this because he’s been lied to in some way. Besides, he hasn’t done anything unforgivable yet. It’ll be fine as long as he explains when the time comes. I won’t let anyone take the chance to spread rumors.”
