The Song of Inquiry | The Untamed 陈情令

Chapter 36: Unravel

NIE HUAISANG HESITATED YET when he knew how much he is caught, and no matter how he make up such excuse, he can't accept the fact that Ashley might use a fact on him in defense, which it will make things worst or perhaps...misunderstood.

He let out a deep sigh and spoke, "Well then...It's time to tell everything..." ZeWu Jun nod and the others are certainly confused, Wei WuXian's brain cells is not functioning anymore, all he wants is to be over...

He wanted to speak loud his feelings to Lan Zhan...

Everyone sat down in their respective seats, Wen Qing went outside of the jingshi to gather some medicine with Wen Ning. These two need time together now that they finally see eachother at last, Wen Ning would never thought he is not the only one who survived...he hoped Lan SiZhui would know...

Of course, the song of inquiry change and alter timelines, wherein Wen Ning secretly found out about Lan SiZhui's true identity, with the help of Ashley. They finally talk about it and make amends, especially his sister who is finally in Gusu with him for the second time. He never thought this reunion would be the most unforgettable experience in his life.

Nie Huaisang raise his fan and start talking, "Mo Xuanyu...is a colleague of mine, and he is born in a rich family of cultivators. He was with me after Wei WuXian's death, after da-ge died, I start taking classes to train myself as the new High Excellency. Mo Xuanyu was on of them, he is known for having homosexual identity and attraction that he is even accused by Jin Guangyao, so he was thrown and left the clan...that is how I convince him to do the ritual...to revive Wei WuXian and secretly use this opportunity to avenge my da-ge's death..."

"If you're wondering how Wen Qing and Wen Ning are alive, I secretly sheltered them before the remaining Wen Clan is burned and killed to ashes. I did it because Wen Qing could use some help to my dage's sudden sickness before he died...and as for Wen Ning, she begged to me...and I accept for she owe me." He added.

Wei WuXian thought, Sickness eh? Maybe he knew something about Ashley's situation.

Wei WuXian raise an eyebrow, "About Ashley, how did she enter and discover the song of inquiry?"

Nie Huaisang widen his eyes and replied, "The truth is, I don't know how...but I knew her because I sent a spy to investigate some parts of my plan and suddenly my spy told me about her...which I investigate myself...she is somewhat connected to Jin Guangyao."

"Wei Ying." Lan Wangji pat his shoulder, "Xue Yang is the one who brought her in the first place..."

Nie Huaisang fanned and sigh, "All I know is that Xue Yang may be acquainted to Jin Guangyao."

Wei WuXian's eyes widen and stood, "I knew it!"

"Knew what?" ZeWu Jun asked.

Wei WuXian smirked, he remember the past where Song Lan and his uncle Xiao Xingchen intercept Xue Yang because he is involved in a homicide case. He is taken care by the Nie Clan and Jin Guangyao known as Meng Yao - 16 years ago, is the one in charge to guard him. Wei WuXian deduced that Jin Guangyao is the one who free him and used him for a certain thing.

"Jin Guangyao is the one who free Xue Yang! He is incharge at that time so, maye he used Xue Yang. Maybe he has the knowledge about the Song of Inquiry!" he exclaimed.

ZeWu Jun widened his eyes, he couldn't believe Jin Guangyao is involved. His gentle and caring personality isn't believable that he is cruel and evil behind. Lan XiChen's heart clutched when he can't think straight anymore, he is like a brother to him, a friend. In this situation, his help is to turn back for good. But, if he hurt Ashley...he had no choice but to defend him.
