The Untamed ( Wei Wuxian and Lan Zhan )
Chapter 154
Who would have thought that our brotherhood never matters to you Jiang Cheng .... You never understood me ... But an outsider who was far away yet understood me and stood by me .
~~ Wei WuXian
"Does anyone still remember Xiao XingChen from back then? Xiao
XingChen, the bright moon, the gentle breeze. And the case of the YueyangChang Sect. At that time, Xue Yang was protected single-handedly by LianFang-Zun as well!"
"When Daozhang Xiao XingChen first came down the mountain, didn't a lot of sects want him to be a guest cultivator at their place? The LanlingJin Sect also invited him, but he politely refused. Back then, the Jin Sect was quite pleased with itself. Having been rejected by a rogue cultivator, of course it felt like it had lost face. This old enmity had to be one of the reasons they protected Xue Yang in the future as well. They just had to see Xiao XingChen lead to a terrible end, huh?"
"Hah! What do they think they are? Just you wait if you don't join our sect?"
"How unfortunate. Back then, I had the luck of seeing Daozhang Xiao XingChen's brilliance at a night-hunt with my own eyes. His sword, Shuanghua, could move the whole world."
"Afterwards, Jin GuangYao still got rid of Xue Yang. What a case of the dog bites the dog."
"I heard that back when Jin GuangYao worked undercover in the QishanWen Sect, he wasn't genuine at all. This was what he thought: if the Sunshot Campaign didn't go well, he'd stay at the Wen Sect and help the villain; if the Wen Sect was about to fall, he'd turn around and become a hero."
"Wen RuoHan is probably mad as hell in the Underworld. Back then, he trained Jin GuangYao as one of his most trusted cultivators. Almost all of Jin GuangYao's current swordsmanship was taught to him by Wen RuoHan!"
"That's not so big of a deal, is it? I heard that the reason ChiFeng-Zun failed the surprise attack was because he purposely sent out the wrong information!"
"I'll say a secret too. The money and
resources he used to build the lookout
towers were all collected from other
sects, right? Every sect helped out a bit. I heard that he secretly takes... this
amount."
"Oh Heavens... So much? He really is
shameless. I thought he really wanted do good back then. All of our sincerity was fed to the dogs!"
Wei WuXian felt that things were rather comical, If they're rumors, why the hurry to believe them? If they're secrets, why would you come to know them? These rumors didn't happen in just the one day. However, in the past, when Jin Guangyao was popular, they were suppressed quite well. Almost nobody took them seriously. Yet, tonight, all of the rumors seemed to have become absolute truths, forming the rocks and bricks of Jin GuangYao's supposedly- committed crimes, proving his lack of morality.
"Judging from this, this person killed his father, his brother, his wife, his son, his master, his friend... and even committed incest. How terrifying!"
