In the ancient realm there was a soul who was known widely as Hanguang-Jun.
He was known to be aloof and away from worldly beings. Seldom people knew him for who he was or what his heart truly yearned in reality.
A man who loved dearly and in retu...
"Hanguang-Jun" Lan Bohai bows with respect "we're ready and waiting for you at the Orchid Room".
"Have you seen Wei Ying?" at my question his steps almost falter but he picks up his stride and answers with a small bow of his head "Yes Hanguang-Jun" his answer is curt "Master Wei Wuxian is up in the mountains playing Chenqing".
Up in the mountains?
Playing Chenqing?
Why isn't he playing here in Gusu?
"Hm" not wanting to delve on the fact right now, we enter the Orchid Room where brother smiles kindly at us and Uncle is reading a script. All the other Elders are also seated and meditating.
"Wangji, we were waiting for you" brother looks around and addresses the council "we're gathered here to discuss about tomorrows ceremony. All the disciples of various Sects would be present and for next six months they would be our guest at Gusu. On that note I wish to address another issue".
My brother's gaze meets mine and there is so much compassion within them. His smile is soft and caring when he announces "I wish to appoint Master Wei Wuxian as one of the teachers who would guide the students under Dark Energy."
My heartbeat is wavers whilst instantaneously there were some uproar and hostility from few of the elders "ZewuJun, please reconsider. The Yiling Patriarch is an formidable enemy. Having him here in our premise is us tolerating him, but having him as a teacher? Abomination!" my knuckles turn white when I hear the condemned words.
How dare they!
"Elder, I appreciate your concern but I am not too worried nor do I belive it should be of any concern. Master Wei Wuxian is quite popular with the disciples and they respect him" he looks at uncle and enquires "this is my final decision. Do you have anything to say Uncle?" but before uncle could form his opinion, Elder Lan Fu makes yet another objection "Qiren, this cannot happen. Are you planning to include an outsider to teach the rules of Gusu? This is preposterous!".
"For one I am not interested in teaching nor will ever teach Gusu Rules" Wei's voice resonates within the room and all eyes are on him "Elder Lan knows how much I have detested them. Secondly" he bows down to brother and grins "thank you for the opportunity but I am sure your clan would not accept my methods of teaching. I am more of a person who does the dirty work than sit around being pristine" with another bow he walks towards me "Lan Zhan, I am going out to meet the Ghost General" he purposefully stresses on 'Ghost General' and grins "I'll be back soon" and he strides out.
With a flip of his sleeve Elder Lan Fu murmurs "Imbecile" and I knew I had enough of this. It's when I raise my voice, they knew that Hanguang-Jun is angered "Watch your words" I glare at the elder "the person whom you're addressing is my partner. I won't tolerate anyone speaking ill of him. He has been nothing but respectful to you all. He deserves the respect in return" not paying heed to them I look at brother and uncle with a small bow I leave.
