Chapter 274 The Black Robe Man Was Taken Away
"Oh, you're quite arrogant. It seems you know us. What's the matter? Is it because you're too ugly that you wear a mask and dare not show your true face?" Wei Wuxian said sarcastically.
Lan Wangji gently tugged at the hem of Wei Wuxian's shirt, signaling him not to act rashly. However, Wei Wuxian merely glanced at Lan Wangji sideways, not relenting.
The person opposite him didn't seem annoyed, instead letting out a deep laugh: "Of course I know who you are. Jingxing Jun Wei Wuxian, Hanguang Jun Lan Wangji, Zewu Jun Lan Xichen, and Huiren Jun Meng Yao."
"But it's a pity for these two youngsters. They will die because of you guys. Hahaha!" The man in black robe laughed loudly after saying this.
Wei Wuxian only felt that the man's voice was somewhat familiar, but he couldn't remember it for a moment.
Lan Xichen then stepped forward and said, "I wonder what grudge you have against us, and why you have done such a heinous act?"
"Harming heaven and committing a crime? Ha, Lord Zewu, how do you know how I've lived? If my master hadn't saved my life, I would have died long ago. I only helped my master devour some people's spirits, and didn't kill them. How can I say that I'm harming heaven and committing a crime?"
Lan Xichen frowned slightly, "Devour another's consciousness is a grave mistake. Even if it doesn't kill them, the victim will be crippled."
The black-robed man snorted coldly, "Lord Zewu is truly compassionate, but the world is a world where the strong prey on the weak. My Lord is merciful and has spared their lives."
Wei WuXian couldn't help but say, "Don't try to quibble. Who is the master you're talking about? Someone who acts this way is definitely not a good person."
The black-robed man was silent for a moment, then slowly spoke, "My master was once despised by the world and hunted by the so-called righteous. If he hadn't grown stronger, he would have been wiped out long ago. Now I'm just getting back a small amount of interest."
Lan Wangji's cold voice rang out: "No matter what happened in the past, it is wrong to do evil now."
The black-robed man laughed and said, "Han Guang-jun is still so old-fashioned."
Lan Jingyi couldn't help but say, "Jingxing Jun, why bother talking to him? Just capture him. I don't believe his master won't come to rescue him."
Wei Wuxian then cast a talisman onto the black-robed man's mask. The mask instantly fell off, and the black-robed man quickly covered his face, but they still saw it.
Wei Wuxian said in surprise: "Su She? You're not dead?"
"Hahaha! Wei Wuxian, are you disappointed that I didn't die?"
"Weren't you killed together with Wen Zhuliu back then?" Wei Wuxian was full of doubts.
Su She put down his hand, a ferocious expression on his face. "I was saved by the master, and he gave me strength. Now I will take revenge on you."
Lan Wangji clenched his fists tightly, his eyes icy, "You have committed many evil deeds, which are unforgivable."
Su She laughed and said, "Do you think you can escape unscathed today?" As soon as he finished speaking, many puppets emerged from all around.
Everyone drew their swords and prepared for battle. Just as the battle was about to begin, a melodious flute sound suddenly rang out.
The puppets stopped as if under control. Su She shouted in horror, "Master!"
A man in white slowly approached. He had a beautiful face but a cold look in his eyes. "Su She, you disappoint me so much. You revealed your identity so easily."
The man in white turned to look at Wei Wuxian and the others, "I'll let you go today, and we'll settle the score later."
With that, he disappeared with Su She. Wei Wuxian breathed a sigh of relief, "Who is this person? He seems strangely familiar."
Lan Wangji said softly, "Whoever it is, he's bound to be a formidable foe. We need to prepare early."
Everyone nodded, and the atmosphere became a little solemn.
Wei Wuxian studied the runes on the cave. They seemed strange, and the more he looked, the more he felt something was amiss.
So, Wei Wuxian directly sent a message to his fifth uncle Yin Li, asking her to come and help check it out.
After Wei Wuxian sent out the voice transmission, Lan Wangji said, "Wei Ying, did you notice something wrong?"
"I thought these runes were very strange, so I asked Fifth Uncle to come and help take a look."
Lan Xichen and Meng Yao also explored the cave to see if there were any other discoveries.
At this time, Tayun suddenly said, "Look here."
Everyone went towards Tayun and saw a huge whirlpool in front of Tayun.
Lan Jingyi asked: "What is this? Can I go in?"
"Jingyi, don't be reckless. It's better to be careful." Lan Sizhui grabbed Lan Jingyi and said.
"Si Zhui, don't worry, I won't do anything rash."
Wei Wuxian looked at the vortex thoughtfully, then said to Lan Wangji, "Lan Zhan, I want to go in and take a look."
Lan Wangji looked at him worriedly, "The origin of this vortex is unknown, it could be dangerous."
Wei WuXian smiled carefreely, "Precisely because we don't know what's going on, we need to explore further. Perhaps we can find clues about the man in white."
Lan Wangji knew he couldn't persuade him, so he could only hold his hand tightly, "Then I'll go with you."
Lan Xichen advised, “Wangji, Wuxian, why don’t you wait a moment? Let’s take a look at the runes first and then make any plans.”
Wei Wuxian said directly, "Brother, please wait here for my Fifth Uncle. Lan Zhan and I will go check it out first. If there's any danger, I'll send you a message."
Seeing that he couldn't persuade the two, Lan Xichen said, "Then you should be careful and don't act stubbornly."
The two nodded in agreement, then jumped into the whirlpool holding Tayun.
