Jin Ling stole a glance at Wei WuXian again. No dogs were with him, and Wei WuXian was finally able to get a hold of himself. He felt like he had a headache, "You kid... It's so late. Why did you come here with your dog?"
But he didn't know that after Lan WangJi, Wen Ning, and he departed from Lotus Pier, Jin Ling secretly went to find him. Realizing he was gone, he threw a tantrum at his uncle who ran madly around, making people unsheathe their swords. He criticized that Wei WuXian ran away all because of him, and Jiang Cheng slammed him on the ground right after. And so, Jin Ling decided that he might as well do everything, taking Fairy to trace Wei WuXian's tracks. Fairy didn't disappoint, arriving with accuracy at the Guanyin Temple by following Wei WuXian's scent. However, when Jin Ling was knocking, Fairy sensed the killing intent hidden behind the doors and suddenly turned around, biting his owner's clothes and barking to alarm him. Unfortunately, something seemed odd about this Guanyin Temple. Even if Wei WuXian wasn't inside, Jin Ling felt he had to find out what it was. In the end, he still fell into the hands of the enemy.
Of course, Jin Ling wouldn't speak the truth. He only snorted.
Along with a few people, Jin GuangYao stepped into the temple. Right before the doors closed, he turned to his subordinates, "Where's the dog?"
A monk replied, "The dog was wild. It bit anyone in its path. I was unable subdue it, and it ran off."
Jin GuangYao, "Find it and kill it. The dog's quite bright. It wouldn't do us well if it led someone over."
"Yes!"
The monk left with his sword, and the doors finally closed. Jin Ling was more than astonished, blurting, "You're really gonna kill it? You were the one who gave me Fairy!"
Jin GuangYao asked instead, "A-Ling, what are you doing here?"
Jin Ling glanced at Wei WuXian, unsure of how to respond. Suddenly, Lan XiChen spoke up, "Sect Leader Jin, Jin Ling is still a child."
Jin GuangYao turned to him, "I know."
Lan XiChen, "He is your nephew as well."
Jin GuangYao broke into a smile, "Brother, what are you thinking? Of course, I know Jin Ling's not only a child but my nephew as well. What did you think I'd do? Silence him by murder?"
Lan XiChen didn't say anything. Jin GuangYao shook his head, turning to Jin Ling, "A-Ling, you heard him. If you make a ruckus, perhaps I'd do some scary things to you. Do as you see fit, please."
Jin Ling had always had a good relationship with this uncle of his. In the past, Jin GuangYao doted on him quite a lot. Right now, he appeared to be as nice as always, but with the way things were, Jin Ling found it difficult to view him in the same light as before. Quietly, he walked towards Wei WuXian and Lan XiChen, looking quite obedient.
Jin GuangYao turned around, "They still haven't dug it up yet? Tell the people inside to hurry up!"
One of the monks answered, "Yes!" With a sword, he rushed into the Guanyin Palace.
Wei WuXian finally noticed that from the main palace came the sound of earth and stone being shuffled, as though many people were trying to dig something out. He thought, What's he digging? A tunnel? The Tiger Seal? The thing that's sealed here?
Jin GuangYao, "Speaking of it, there's something I haven't asked yet-Mr. Wei, how do you know this place? Please don't tell me you and HanGuang-Jun just so happened to have arrived here on your vacation."
Wei WuXian, "LianFang-Zun, you hid quite a big land deed in the secret chamber of Fragrant Palace, right beside my manuscripts. Don't you remember?"
