Demonic Dao Fanfiction: Protecting You from Worries for a Lifetime

Nie Huaisang glanced at everyone present, seeing they all seemed to have something to say, yet hesitated, hesitant. He couldn't help but sneer, thinking to himself, "Uncle, what fun is there in teasing these idiots?" But then he thought, playing this game with these so-called gentlemen wasn't so bad after all!

Nie Huaisang cleared his throat, breaking the silence. He spoke in a calm and polite tone, "Brother, Sect Leader Lan, and everyone present, I have an idea. Would you be willing to listen?"

Nie Mingjue: "Nie Huaisang, just say what you want to say! Why are you hesitating?"

Nie Huaisang: "The current situation in the Sun Shooting Campaign is extremely tense. Our past victories were due to Brother Wei's cultivation of the Ghost Dao and the covert assistance of Meng Yao. However, we now have neither Meng Yao nor Wei Wuxian. While some have speculated that Xuanyuan Yue might be Brother Wei, that is merely speculation, without any solid evidence. I propose that we find someone to temporarily impersonate Brother Wei to confuse the Wen Clan and delay their offensive. Meanwhile, we should fully concentrate on searching for Brother Wei and Xuanyuan Yue and his companions, and persuade them to join the Sun Shooting Campaign. Frankly, if we fail to find Brother Wei, finding Xuanyuan Yue and his companions would be equally beneficial. Therefore, I implore Big Brother, Brother Xichen, and everyone present to carefully consider this!"

Upon hearing these words, everyone exchanged glances, knowing full well that Nie Huaisang's words were true. However, no one from the hundreds of immortal sects dared to speak, only to await instructions. Only Lan Xichen and Lan Wangji, one gently stroking his wrist, the other the jade pendant at his waist, each possessed an indescribable, deep, dark glint in their eyes.

Qing Hengjun's eyes were clear, and his tone was firm as he said, "Young Master Yue's behavior is characterized by his generous character and kind heart. It would be a blessing to seek his help!"

After hearing Qing Hengjun's words, each family nodded in agreement. After all, in their current predicament, besides finding the Yiling Patriarch and Xuanyuan Yue, who else could have the power to rescue them from this peril? After the discussion, each family no longer hesitated and sent out their disciples to search with all their might. After all, what awaited them later could be the annihilation of their entire clan.

Night fell, and the moonlight, like silver, bathed the entire camp. Lan Wangji bathed in the bright moonlight, his clear eyes gleaming with a faint light, but unable to conceal the worry beneath them. Lan Xichen approached slowly, but Lan Wangji did not turn. He knew that Lan Xichen would come looking for him, but this time, he would not respond to his brother, unwilling to reveal his worries.

But this time Lan Wangji was wrong. Lan Xichen was not here to ask about their whereabouts.

"Wangji!" Lan Xichen stopped and called softly.

"Brother," Lan Wangji bowed, but his eyes did not turn to Lan Xichen again.

Lan Xichen felt bitter. He had long known that he and Wangji had separated, but when faced with the truth, he couldn't help but blame himself. "Wangji, brother, you're not here to ask about their whereabouts."

When Lan Wangji heard this, he turned to look at Lan Xichen, his eyes full of confusion. Why was that?

Lan Xichen saw his brother's expression clearly, but just smiled at Lan Wangji without any explanation.

Confused, Lan Wangji observed carefully, his gaze finally settling on Lan Xichen's crown. After a long pause, he finally asked, "Master Xuanyuan?"

Lan Wangji wasn't sure if this guess was correct, but to the casual observer, his brother's hair crown looked ordinary. However, with a little closer inspection, he could spot a pattern of a jasmine flower entwined within the cloud pattern. Since the jasmine flower was a favorite of Sect Master Xuanyuan, its image appeared on nearly all of his belongings, leading Lan Wangji to wonder if his brother harbored a special affection for him. Furthermore, he recalled his brother's unusually low mood after Sect Master Xuanyuan took Wei Ying away.

Lan Xichen: “Isn’t it possible?”

Lan Wangji: “It’s difficult.”

Lan Xichen's lips curled up slightly, "Are you going to give up on this opportunity?"

Lan Wangji: “No.”

Lan Xichen: “Neither does my brother.”

Lan Wangji glanced at Lan Xichen with a smile in his eyes and replied, "No help." His brother had a good impression of the Xuanyuan Sect Master, but he was Wei Ying's uncle. He had not yet won Wei Ying's heart, so naturally he would not help.

Lan Xichen's eyes flashed. If Wangji didn't help, so what? After all, Chaoyang was mine now. If he could even escape like this, he wouldn't have to be the Young Sect Master anymore. Just give it to Wangji! He went to chase his wife.

Lan Xichen suddenly changed the subject, speaking calmly to Lan Wangji, "Wangji, looking back, Young Master Wei did indeed endure much hardship in his previous life. You certainly wouldn't want him to be drawn into these conflicts again in this life. However, the memory restoration we and the hundreds of immortal families are undergoing is being carried out in stages. Don't you find this a little strange?"

Lan Wangji was surprised when he heard this. He looked at Lan Xichen in confusion and asked in a questioning tone, "Isn't it because of the reversal of the Heavenly Dao?"

Lan Xichen shook his head firmly and gave a negative answer: "That's not the case."

There was a hint of innocence and confusion on Lan Wangji's face. He looked at Lan Xichen, his eyes full of expectation, hoping that Lan Xichen could give a reasonable explanation.

Lan Xichen was silent for a moment, seemingly gathering his thoughts, before he slowly explained, "Actually, this is a crucial achievement set by Sect Leader Xuanyuan to avenge Wei Ying. It's also a test for both of us."

"Choose the noble family, or choose them, right?"

"Correct."

"What about my brother?"

"Haven't we already made our choice?"

……

……

"As long as people exist in this world, they are bound to deal with these mundane matters. I expect they will show up soon."

Lan Wangji suddenly raised his head and looked at Lan Xichen with sharp eyes.

"If Wangji wants to be with him, he'll stand at the top of the world with him, making it impossible for anyone to move or oppose him." Lan Xichen smiled, not knowing what he was thinking. "Besides, he has someone who will protect him wholeheartedly in this life. If Wangji can't gain a firm foothold, I'm afraid that person won't agree with your wishes."

A flicker of emotion flashed in Lan Wangji's eyes, and when he thought of Wei Ying, his gaze immediately softened. He had thought he had concealed it well, but he hadn't expected his brother to notice it.

Ever since the Sun Shooting Campaign began, he had intended to search for that person, but the urgency of the war, coupled with the need to be wary of the movements of the Hundred Immortal Sects, had prevented him from taking action. He could only occasionally contact Wei Ying privately through voice transmission, but never received a response. It turned out that Sect Master Xuanyuan had forbidden it.
