"......"
Just now, the bustling and lively Golden Forest Platform hall has now fallen into a silent stalemate. Most people are shocked that the revered Lord Hanguang would actually cause a scene at another family's banquet, while a small minority are fearful, their minds racing to figure out how to explain this.
The small part here refers to the people of the Jin family, specifically Jin Guangshan and Jin Guangyao. Soon, everyone's attention was focused on what Lan Wangji casually threw in the center of the main hall. It's not entirely accurate to call it a thing; it's a person, or rather an undead person, shrouded in lingering resentment.
"Forgetfulness or absent-mindedness, what's going on?"
"Brother, why not ask your sworn brother?"
"......"
Lan Xichen choked, and ended up swallowing the words he wanted to ask. During this period, for some reason, Lan Wangji has shown strong dissatisfaction towards Jin Guangyao. Although in the eyes of outsiders it's just insignificant words or expressions, coming from the usually reticent Lan Wangji, it's like a person with failing eyes suddenly gaining clarity.
Since I was called upon, Jin Guangyao naturally couldn't stay aloof. He met Lan Wangji's gaze as he took his seat, but he preempted with a question.
"Shouldn't Lord Hanguang explain why he trespassed into the Jin family's forbidden grounds to the Lanling Jin?"
"This is the explanation."
Lan Xichen frowned, feeling dissatisfied with Jin Guangyao's tone, but restrained himself from reacting since this was the Jin family's territory. He also wanted to avoid others speculating about discord among the three sects, which would only bring trouble to the Lan of Gusu. Of course, with him around, he wouldn't let his younger brother be troubled, but for now, he needed to wait and see what was really going on.
Lan Wangji's gaze was like a divine fire that could extinguish all evil spirits, piercing straight into the black heart beneath Jin Guangyao's facade. If it weren't for his profound skills, anyone else would have been unable to remain calm in such a perilous situation.
"Forgetfulness or absent-mindedness, be more careful in your words. What exactly happened?"
Speaking is Nie Mingjue, the famous general in the cultivation world, who has become increasingly irritable lately and can't stand any delay or hesitation. Everyone is looking forward to what earth-shattering secret Lan Wangji might reveal after Red Mountain Prince has spoken.
Nowadays, anyone who can secure a seat at the Golden Forest Platform is no ordinary person. Lan Wangji's character and temperament are well-known in the cultivation world. Judging from the situation, it seems that the Lanling Jin must have done something unspeakable behind the scenes, most likely related to the person filled with resentment in front of them. When it comes to interests, trust is the least of concern. If they can use this opportunity to expose the Jin family, even if they don't gain any immediate benefits, it will ensure the possibility of future growth.
"Red Mountain Prince, Wangji While hunting at night, accidentally stumbled into a dense forest to the west of Lanling City, and stumbled upon a place shrouded in resentment. This person was found there. There is a mark of the Golden Star Snow Wave."
Lan Wangji rarely spoke so many words in one breath, which made everyone slightly curious, but this curiosity was quickly suppressed, as there were more pressing matters at hand.
" Jin Guangyao, you say!"
"Big brother, I want to go to Wangji..."
"I am not familiar with Reverence for Fragrant Libation."
"......"
Jin Guangyao was interrupted before he could finish half a sentence, and the awkward atmosphere immediately set in. Combined with the line said by Lan Wangji to Lan Xichen, it seems to carry a hint of the younger brother's dissatisfaction with his elder brother's bond with his sworn brother. Did Jin Guangyao offend Lan Wangji in some way?
Thinking of this, many people turned their gaze to Lan Xichen, making him feel uncomfortable for the first time in his life. In fact, Lan Xichen couldn't understand why his younger brother suddenly felt disgust towards Jin Guangyao. If there was any dissatisfaction in his heart, why didn't he show it when the three of them became sworn brothers?
Jin Guangyao was used to being accommodating, and Lan Wangji, by giving him face, did not get angry, but instead made a gesture of apology.
"I didn't consider it carefully. It was a mistake for Lord Hanguang to come here. This should be the forbidden grounds of my the Lanling Jin, used to handle internal matters. The person brought by Lord Hanguang is a cultivator from the Jin family. I won't hide it from you all, this person went missing a year ago and recently escaped back, looking like this when he returned."
"Is this true?"
"I dare not deceive my big brother."
"Hmph, you better not."
Jin Guangyao lowered the corners of his eyes, reve Lin g a hint of fierceness that disappeared in an instant. Upon hearing this, he bent his waist even lower, displaying a completely obedient and respectful attitude towards his elder brother. As he stood up, he glanced towards Jin Guangshan at the head of the table, capturing a barely perceptible expression of satisfaction.
