The Song of Inquiry | The Untamed 陈情令

Chapter 34: Unravel

NIE HUAISANG COULDN'T BELIEVE THAT THIS man in front of him is one other than his old friend and the Yiling Patriarch. His eyes gaze up and down as he observe his features, he indeed change. No wonder he silently recognized his movement and the way he talks.

Wei WuXian, "yep, in the flesh..." Nie huaisang played with his fingers.

"I-I'am confused, how you are in Mo Xuanyu's body?" he asked.

Ashley, "Long story..."

Nie Huaisang stare towards them, "HanGuang-Jun, ZeWu Jun, Yunmeng Leader Clan and Wei WuXian...please don't tell this to others...I am doing my hardest to protect my ancestor remnants..."

"You have my word." Lan Wangji replied.

Ashley stood in her seat and spoke, "Enough with the chit chat, this is too complicated and I fully understand why this is happening."

Everyone is confused of what she just said, to her, she didn't mind.

"Clan leader, Nie, can we go to that bunker tomorrow?" she asked Huaisang hesitated but felt utterly defeated, "A-alright..." he replied.

Ashley stretch a soft smile, "I will tell you all now, the reason we go there is to find the real answer to this situation because this doesn't make sense. If this sword is really connected to that bunker, then hell break loose. We will investigate Jin Guangyao."

Their eyes widen, they never knew how Ashley is already gritted her teeth whenever she said that name...everytime.

ZeWu Jun, "Why Jin Guangyao?"

Ashley, "I will tell you all sooner or later."

"Since I told you all, can I go now?" Nie Huaisang asked.

Wei WuXian nodded. Nie Huaisang silently left the Winehouse. Wei WuXian shake his head, "it's strange..."

"How so?" Lan Wangji asked.

Wei WuXian replied, "He is somewhat not telling us anything..."

"Well you're correct." Ashley commented.

Ashley, "His story should be different than what he says...I feel he is hiding something besides this so called bunker..."

Wei WuXian nodded, "You're right...we should look for other answers...oh!"

"Me and Lan Zhan will investigate the bunker!" he added.

ZeWu Jun, "All is settled, Wangji and Senior Wei...you two be careful."

Lan Wangji nodded, "We will brother."

Jiang cheng gritted his teeth, he try his hardest not to hide his disappointed in Wei WuXian, now Ashley is here...he can restrain himself.

He gazed at her, "Ash, care to tell me now how you're back?"

"Ah! So...I am not the only one who call you Ash eh?" Wei WuXian commented.

"Shut Up!" Jiang Cheng exclaimed.

Ashley stared at him, "Short summary, The Song of Inquiry is the reason I came back...it seems the timeline in this era is affected because of me...so, in order to know who started it all...I help them to investigate."

"It all makes sense now..." Jiang Cheng replied.

Ashley raise an eyebrow, "What do you mean?"

Jiang Cheng, "I-If you need anything, I-I am glad to help."

Wei WuXian burst out laughing, "Oh Jiang Cheng, this is the first time I saw youbeing helpful...or is it? You're fancy to her too?"

ZeWu Jun's eyes widen in Wei WuXian's response, Yunmeng Clan Leader fancied her?
