《Dark Lord》Chapter 18

AN: Question at the bottom, please answer it.
Getting no answers from Wu Luiyin, Jin turned his attention elsewhere.
Behind him, his family hid their scowls when they saw Wu Luiyin's face. This was the Crown Prince of Xianghou. Those who tried to kill Jin.
"My name is Nangong LuJin, son of the leader of Shadow Sect." Jin introduced himself.
He watched as everyone's face slowly morphed into horror, loving the feeling of being feared upon on.
(Xi WeiLong, 25 years old)
Xi Yu's brother, Crown Prince of FuYin, Xi WeiLong, looked at Jin in awe. This was the man he had dreamed of becoming. Someone he had learned about, someone with power that no other's have had. Someone who's fame had spread so far.
He had heard from his sister about how this man had become the consort of Wu Luiyin. He just couldn't get it. As far as he knew, Wu Luiyin had someone else he loved. At first, he couldn't believe it when his sister had told him that LuJin was willing to become a consort to someone who was weaker than him.
In the end, LuJin was betrayed, and left on the brink of death.
He wasn't going to hide it. This was the first time that he has seen LuJin, and he couldn't describe him. He was far beyond beautiful, defying the meaning of a beauty that could bring down nations. This man could bring down the world with his beauty.
LuJin's long white hair was beautiful under the sun, glittering, sending sparkles to his eyes. His eyes were magnificent, attracting one's attention and made you want to look at it even more, as if it was drawing you in. The black mark, a tattoo he presumed, was alluring, contrasting against his pale skin.
Right away, he knew it. He had fallen in love with the man that he had admire for so long.

He gripped his chair tightly, his eyes showing many emotions running through it. A light smile stretch on his face, as he looked onwards.
He loved how domineering he was, the way he acted like the person he was suppose to be. Throwing away the old him.
Xi WeiLong almost couldn't bear the rate his heart was beating at. Just how attractive could he be?
Xi Yu looked at her brother, noticing how he was acting a little different compared to normal. She noticed the way that he was looking at Jin as if he was going to die if he couldn't see him. Pushing the thought aside as a weird thing her brother was doing, she looked away.
"Impossible, you can't be him. None of you guys were invited here. How could you all be here, how did you get past the guards?" An elder standing behind three disciples from Mian Sect yelled.
Jin's expression darkened. Just how stupid were these people?
"Do you want to repeat that, old man? If I were you, I would watch my mouth. You're pretty old, you might not know when you'll take that last breath of your's. Those guards were weaker than flies, if you want people to guard, at least try to find people who are stronger."
Jin's harsh voice brought the temperature to almost freezing.
"What is the reason that you have come here today, Nangong LuJin?" Xi WeiLong took this opportunity to talk, hoping that LuJin would calm down.
Finally hearing someone that wasn't speaking in an arrogant tone, LuJin calmed down.
His eyes turned to Xi WeiLong, scanning his body.
Xi WeiLong almost blushed as he noticed LuJin's eyes traveling his body.
"Xi WeiLong, Gold Rank Level 3 cultivator, choice of weapon is a fan." LuJin murmured, his eyes piercing through the protection on Xi WeiLong's body.

Xi WeiLong stiffened, feeling like his body being examined.
"Hmmm. What reason did I come here for? Not much. I just decided that this was the perfect chance to let you guys battle against my family. Don't worry, they won't kill you. Not unless I order it." Jin said, retracting his eyes from Xi WeiLong's body.
"You don't have to participate in this. I'm just giving you a chance to battle against people who are much stronger than you. Of course, it could maybe even help you break through." Jin said, his eyes wandering around those who were from the sect's.
MoWan looked at her brother.
"You're not doing this for that reason, are you?" MoWan asked, her tone held a slight hint of something.
MoXin looked at her sister, when those words were spoken. Her younger sister had also changed.
Before, she wouldn't have even blink an eye when things like this happened. Now, she was the one who backed out of everything. Her sister had opened up her heart to someone, she knew it. She would barely be able to see her sister because of those missions she went on. At least, she thought it was alright as long as she didn't changed.
How could she not know her sister? They had a bond so close, they were almost like twins. Now, her bond with LuJin was much stronger. When things started changing, MoXin had lost trust in her. One day, when she was out on her mission, she had spotted MoWan along with a man.
Not wanting to be found out, she quickly flew from that scene. She wasn't against their relationship, but she also didn't want MoWan to get hurt. Almost everyone was afraid of their identity. Those who were brave enough usually ended up betraying them.
That was what happened to her once. Ever since then, the only people she could trust were those who she had spent a long time with.
But, her sister has changed. She had slowly become the old LuJin. The one who was trusting, softhearted, someone easy to hurt.
MoXin's eyes drifted to the man standing behind Xi WeiLong and Xi Yu. This was him, wasn't it? The reason why MoWan wanted to seem different from them. Even so, what good would it bring?
"MoWan, I hope you remember the reason why we have come here. Do not confuse it with your new feelings." MoXin spoke, her tone cold and devoid of emotion, entirely different from her normal tone, sweet and lovely.
LuJin had healed, he had become someone that he should be. She couldn't let MoWan try to change him again. If she did, the chances of him getting hurt would be higher.
MoWan flinched at the tone MoXin used. She knew that her sister had already found out about the man she loved. She also knew that this was a threat.
"MoXin, these people are innocent. They have nothing to do with us. Why are you trying to do this to them?!" MoWan replied, not willing to back down,
LuJin had long since put up a barrier around them, blocking all noise from going out, but not going in.
"MoWan! Are you saying that we can't get revenge for those who have try to harm your own brother?!" MeiRin softly said.
Just what has happened to her daughter, to cause her to change so much?
AN: Who do you want as the male lead?
Xi WeiLong.
Wu Luiyin.
Someone new.
