The time of the Discussion Conference at Carp Tower came within the blink of an eye.
"Are they going to investigate on our sect?" asked Jin Guangshan.
"Well, the truth will finally be out." said Nie Huaisang.
Most of the prominent sects’ residences were built in areas of beautiful scenery, but the LanlingJin Sect’s Carp Tower sat in the most flourishing part of Lanling City. The main road used to visit the tower was a carriage path more than half a mile in length. It only opened for important events such as banquets or the Discussion Conferences. According to the LanlingJin Sect’s rules, one must not walk at a fast pace here. Both sides of the path were covered in murals and reliefs, telling stories of the Jin Clan’s leaders and other distinguished cultivators. During the journey, disciples of the LanlingJin Sect would act as guides as they drove the carriages.
"Our Jin Sect is really the most beautiful." said Jin Zixun with prides.
"Yet full of disgusting men." said Jiang Cheng.
"Much better that your Jiang Sect." mocked Jin Zixun.
"Really? At least, the people in my Jiang Sect is more respectful than you." said Jiang Cheng with a scoff.
Out of all of them the four most famous sections about the current sect leader—Jin GuangYao—were respectively “disclosure”, “assassination”, “oath”, and “kind austerity”. Of course, the scenes showed how during the Sunshot Campaign Jin GuangYao hid in the QishanWen Sect and reported important information, assassinated the Wen Sect’s leader Wen RuoHan, became sworn brothers with the rest of the Venerated Triad, and rose to the position of Chief Cultivator. The painter was quite adept at painting people’s expressions. Although nothing seemed special at first glance, a more detailed look would reveal that even when his figure was executing the assassination, cheeks dripping blood, Jin GuangYao still had the hint of a smile over his face. One could feel their hair stand as they looked.
"He looks creepy." said Nie Huaisang.
"That man can kill me?" asked Wen Rouhan.
"What if I kill him first?" he added.
"Isn't that so exaggerating? Why do they have to put that? If you did good, there is no need for such murals to show it. People will remember that in their hearts." said Wei Wuxian.
"Is that because he killed Wen Rouhan that's why he became sworn brothers with my son?" asked Qingheng-jun.
"Mn." answered Sizhui.
Immediately after it were Jin ZiXuan’s murals. Usually, in order to signify their absolute power, sect leaders would purposely lessen the number of murals for cultivators of their own generation or perhaps switch to an inferior artist, so that they wouldn’t be outshone. To these acts, everyone gave silent approval, showing their understanding. However, Jin ZiXuan had four murals as well, unbelievably standing on equal footing as Jin GuangYao. The handsome man in the paintings displayed both pride and vigor.
"That's because my son is supposed to be the one on his position." said Madam Jin.
"Only if he didn't die." she added.
Hopping off the carriage, Wei WuXian stopped in front of the murals and stared for a while. Lan WangJi also stopped, waiting for him.
From not far away, a disciple declared, “Sect Lan of Gusu, please enter here.”
Lan WangJi, “Let us go.”
Wei WuXian didn’t reply. The two walked together.
"They look so serious." said Nie Huaisang.
