"Second Brother Third Brother! Second Brother Third Brother!"
Stumbling and bumping, Nie Huaisang somehow found a burst of energy in his ailing body, pushing his personal guards back a step as he staggered into the cold room. If it weren't for Lan Xichen and Jin Guangyao coming out in response to the noise and catching him in time, he might have tripped over the threshold and taken a solid fall.
"Huaisang, what's happened? Why are you so flustered? Did only you come? Where's Big Brother?"
"Second Brother, our big brother is gone." (crying)
Nie Huaisang He came in looking like he'd been through a storm, his face deathly pale, looking like a pitiful, anxious little thing.
"Huaisang, what do you mean by 'Brother is gone'!? Don't worry, take your time and tell me."
Jin Guangyao reached out to help Nie Huaisang straighten his back and catch his breath, while gesturing for Lan Xichen to help him sit down. It took a lot of effort to help him recover. But as soon as he spoke, it was another bombshell.
"A few days ago, I was poisoned."
"Poisoned? No wonder you look so pale. Have they found out anything?"
"It's because they found something that my eldest brother took people out, but... three days have passed, and only one person came back, covered in blood and almost dying. That person was following my eldest brother, Second Brother, you all know, whoever is chosen by my eldest brother to follow him must have strong cultivation. But to take out seven or eight people and only one comes back, and in such a state... this... this..."
Seeing Nie Huaisang about to cry again, Jin Guangyao quickly picked up a teacup and gave him a sip of water to calm down, to prevent his emotions from getting out of control and further harming his body.
"Huaisang, has the poison on your body been neutralized?"
"It has been neutralized, but I'm still taking medicine."
"Do you know what poison it is?"
"When I was in a daze, I heard the clan's doctor mention something about mechanical traction."
"mechanical traction therapy?!"
Lan Xichen and Jin Guangyao couldn't help but exchange a glance. This poison is not common in the cultivation world, but it is not uncommon among the common people. Although it may not be fatal with a single dose, the pain and hallucinations it causes are not something that someone as delicate and sheltered as Nie Huaisang can endure.
"Huaisang, you have suffered."
"It's not important, the most important thing now is to save my big brother."
"Have you found out who poisoned him?"
"I'm not sure about that either. Kangsheng said before he passed out that my big brother took them to the west, but they accidentally entered a formation near Xi Ping County."
"Formation?"
"Yeah, they say that the formation is very strange. In an instant, it's as if everyone around you disappears, and all you see is a desert."
"A desert? That's not possible. Xi Ping County is still separated from the desert by a mountain range."
Here are the translations:
"Perhaps it's a fantasy world or unknown. Like this, I'll wait below in the clouds first, the Lan should take care of his medical skills more steadily. I'll bring people from Yao to go to Xi Ping County and check the situation."
"Second Brother, you've been poisoned by the demonic essence, and Elder brother has gone missing again. These two things colliding together are too abnormal. My cultivation is off, and my array formation skills are unclear. I won't be able to help with going to Xi Ping County, so I'll send a team of people with you instead. I'll go first to the Impure World to take a look."
"Yao, isn't there something wrong inside Nieshi"
"I don't know what the situation is, but we have to go take a look."
"Alright."
With such an unexpected situation, Jin Guangyao couldn't stay long at The Lan family. It's a pity that he only arrived slightly earlier than Nie Huaisang and didn't have time to investigate The Lan family's situation, so he had to leave first and return to the the Lanling Jin to gather people.
Lan Xichen hurriedly arranged for Nie Huaisang to be taken to the medical room, made some arrangements, and immediately set off with a team of people, but he did not bring Lan Yanwen with him.
Lan Yanwen belongs to the branch of the The Lan family stationed outside, but the elders in the family died of an epidemic in their early years, so he was brought back to the Cloud Recesses at a young age. Lan Qiren saw that he had excellent aptitude and character, and was only a year younger than Lan Xichen, so he was raised according to the future family head's wishes. With over a decade of affection and being of the same bloodline, Lan Yanwen lived up to expectations and became Lan Xichen's trusted confidant, extremely loyal.
I don't know if it's because of spending too much time with Lan Xichen, Lan Yanwen has also "contracted" a "strange illness."
"Brother Yanwen."
"Forgetfulness or absent-mindedness, you're here."
"This trip to Qinghe will require a lot of your attention."
"Don't worry, since Reverence for Fragrant Libation needs to go to Qinghe to investigate, let him and Kangsheng's servants have a good gathering. There's no rush to return."
"Well, everything in Impure World has been arranged by Nie Huaisang, so you just need to find Nie Yang."
"Alright, then I'll go ask the Fifth Elder for medical treatment first."
Lan Yanwen has been by Lan Xichen's side and has also watched Lan Wangji grow up. At that time, he had just returned to the Cloud Recesses and was about ten years old. While practicing with Lan Xichen, he also helped take care of seven-year-old Lan Wangji from time to time. Over the years, he has come to see Lan Wangji as a younger brother and has protected him as such. So when Lan Wangji came to him for a private conversation, after hesitating for a while and calling out "Brother Yanwen," he immediately changed sides, as Lan Wangji's intentions were for the sake of Lan Xichen and The Lan family.
In extraordinary times, one must resort to extraordinary measures. This is what his parents taught him when he was a child.
