"Xianle , we need to have a talk."
Jun wu announced calmly.

Xie lain turned around quickly, before giving him a quick smile and putting his hands together and bowing with respect. Jun wu giving him a slight nod and directing him to follow him . The silence was loud in the hall , so silent you could hear the footsteps and the accessories from Jun wu clothing tingling at every step.

Xie lian tried to speak , but the silence was so loud it made him nervous , thinking he did something wrong even. Then he forced himself to speak.

"Am I in trouble?"

Jun wu took a while to respond.

"No. Just a quick talk with you . A serious one.

"Then..I'm in trouble?"

"Not quite."

"Understood.."

He felt like he was getting lectured by him , from the few harsh words. Being left in negative thoughts , he kept his normal and relaxed face. He wondered how 'serious' this talk is to talk in private .

After a long silence, they finally arrived at the Heavenly Capital(hall).

It was empty, quiet..so quiet that even a tiny droplet could make a loud echo in there. Xie lian gulped slowly at the silence and the weird atmosphere. He clearly did something but .. he didn't know what he did..?

His eyes followed Jun wu , until he finally stopped. Jun wu turned around and looked at him with sharp eyes , xie lian cringing at the side of that and fixing it by awkwardly coughing a few times and looking away. Then Jun Wu finally spoke.

"Xianle , are you and the crimson rain sought flower quite close? I've heard , lots of rumors , that you and him have been getting on very well. Is that right?"

The tone of his voice was sharp , so sharp it could easily cut through anyone if possible.

"Ah ha..hahaha..ha.." xie lian was nervous on telling him , he even made some sentence starters in his head to explain to him as easy and calm as possible to not make him sound crazy, though he instead tried to kneel down to apologise. Though Jun wu then grabbed his arm from preventing to kneel down ,"you don't have to apologise-"

"I'm sorry."

"Xianle , listen to me."

Xie lians head was tilted down. His eyes staring at the floor in embarrassment and nervousness. Apologising wouldn't really help , Jun wu doesn't care about apologies . All he did was stay quiet till Jun wu spoke , his body still as a statue,"is it true or not?"

"Yes. It's true."

Jun wus eyebrows rose then sighed, before putting both of his hands behind and then turning around ,"You're free now."

"Am I going to get a punish-"

"No. You can go now , have a nice day."

Jun wu then took his steps and walked out of the Heavenly Capital. The wind picking up his hair in different directions as soon as he walked outside. Xie lian stood , not moving a muscle. He was overthinking about everything, he was probably in big trouble or Jun wu was just disappointed though he didn't care. He would definitely stay by hua chengs side even if it means to risk a lot just to be by his side.

          

After thinking and talking to himself , he finally started walking towards the door and walking outside. He then stopped outside as the doors closed , making a loud thud in between.

He used his remaining spiritual powers to form a teleportation circle , and as soon as he finished making it he walked in.

His feet touched the bare grass ,and then turned around to look at the puqi shrine , it was unlikely very quiet . He thought that if he came here , the first thing he would hear is random screaming and thuds but instead it was quiet. He tilted his head confusion before walking in, opening the door and looking inside.

His mouth fell open as he saw that San lang was sitting on the chair next to the table and fu yao being tied and thrown to a corner and nan feng also tied and thrown to a different corner.

Xie lains eyes looked at San lang , as San lang then smiled while standing up and approaching him.

Xie lian spoke,"San..lang..what happened here..?"

San lang looked around and then back at him , shrugging his shoulders. Xie lian looked at him confused and concerned.

"The two kept fighting like animals so I had to do something. So..my solution was to tie them and throw them in a corner!" San lang spoke , with a proud smile. Xie lian noticed how the two that were tied are glaring at one another. He does know that they always fight though is this the only solution he had? Tying them and laying them in different corners will just make their hatred rise more.

You could see on how they are glaring at each other!

San lang obviously didn't care , he was just there waiting for his gege to come back. Though he did realise how nervous he looked , not because of the tied animals, but because of something else.

"Gege, What did ling wen and you talk about?"

"Ah? Ah nothing interesting, just a few missions that's all.."

"Gege..don't lie to me. You look troubled. Very much troubled."

"San lang it's fine , I'm totally okay-"

"Gege..."

He pouted trying to make him tell him why he looks so troubled , the face he made was so ... childish .. it made xie lians heart skip a beat

"Sigh..i had a conversation with Jun Wu."

San langs eyes widened . " what did he talk about?"

"..you."

"Me? Ah nevermind then. I thought you got in trouble for no reason."

"And our relationship."

"I take it back. Shit, what did he ask you about?"

" you two are dating?!

"No!" Xie lian yelled , San lang looked back at them and glared at them.

"Hey! Are you just going to stand there and talk to your highness while we are tied behind?!! Untie us you bitch!"
