*With the request of his younger sister, a pill sudden appeared out of thin air with the wave of his hand. There he sighed and released the swords that held him hostage to the floor. Simply disappearing into little particles of qi, using his cane to walk... Thump... Thump... Thump... He walked to elder Guang and looked down upon him for a second, then shook his head. Turning around he looked back to Asius*

```"So it seems you failed to report such thing to Elder Guang. Wait... Blood flame... Speak your true business! There is no such thing as a simple as wishing to kill a demon lord. Why did you truly come... I may not know what they are, but I do however know you have other motives... Speak of your true mission to the blood flame... As I know your goal is not as simple as you make it seem. If you would like to indulge in another battle of witts, I would gladly entertain that idea. However, we both know what the result shall be"```

*Wei Wuxian's anger rose for a moment... If he was here to come for Ysildea and Efemia, he would need to understand why... He knew bringing the two into the sect would be a risk, however it was a risk he was willing to take. But if true, he would need to interrogate him... Or send him off without permission to enter anymore...*
Barbara
*She took the pill and used it as she always had and her hand began to heal quickly she was happy she had her elder brother with her she wouldn't have noticed such a thing that the boy had been ready to swing his sword on her she was ready to release the boys face and stand up but as wei said he must speak his true business she clutched his cheek slightly harder her claws slowly coming out into the boys cheek not piercing him but to keep him in place and use a little pain compliance she wasn't as generous as wei in terms of being physically non violent wei had more patience then her she lifted him off the ground from his face and helped him to his feet and moved behind him as she let go of his face she put her hand on his wounded shoulder softly standing to the left side of him her hand gripping his shoulder wound*

`"Brother I believe there is more to this boy, if you will allow your sister to speak perhaps a learning moment for me so I won't have a mistake like this again, in terms of learning another's behavior."`

*She squeezed his shoulder slightly asking for wei's permission to not interfere with his line of questioning unless he would allow her to inquire on a few things.*

`"Answer the palace master boy or my fingers will sink into your shoulder and reopen your wounds."`

*Her eyes had a glint of and shine of who she used to be but it was tame she would not turn back to her old safe not with a loving family she has.*
Steven
*Took a few breathe as the swords the kept him place disappeared into thin air leaving a spectacle of beautiful particles behind he grabbed her wrist wincing as she helped him off the ground towards his feet her claws sinking into his cheeks his eyes kept wincing as he felt fear once more a hint of it, as she let go and went to his shoulder he went to speak then felt her hand grip his wounded shoulder he grunted and felt a shock of pain go through his body from head to toe as his body froze for a second he lowered his head in pain.*

`"Ok this young man will answer this young man will answer I have not done here to simply kill a demon lord only kill demons if they were truly evil, do you not know if the great massacre of the battle of blackstone, thousands of soldiers dead bodies put on spikes, word travels palace master, it took me nearly a year to traverse the lands to come here to see for myself the closer I got the more i heard of rumors of a demon lord that isn't what it seems."`

*He said panting as he felt orestis squeezing his shoulder more as he didn't answer wei's question directly she seemingly didn't want to hear anything but the direct answer no more games no more wits he screams slightly falling to his knees as some blood came out his shoulder.*

`"Please let me speak... I promise this young man isn't misleading the great demon lord or palace master. I was going to draw more sword to strike down the demon lord yes but because it is my sole instinct of a life of a demon hunter but I didn't draw my sword only kept my hand near it ready to draw if the great demon lord was evil."`

*He took a few breaths on his knees trying to catch his breath using his right hand to hold onto his wounded shoulder.*

`"The blood flame hadn't sent me to kill the great demon lord I came on my free will It has directed me to this place palace master in search of something."`
William
*He looked to Orestis and nodded as Orestis should learn how to deal with affairs like these... To play the game of intellect. Though he listened to Asius ' words and sighed with some relief... But raised a brow when he heard "Massacre of the battle of blackstone" He raised a brow and looked towards Orestis. With the face of "You will explain this after all the audiences we will have today" Look.*

```"I see... I understand the circumstances, however demon hunter or not, even if this were the imperial court... What your actions have done has only made you a target for ridicule... To preapre yourself for an event that is for peace... Especially as a guest here invited by an esteemed elder... Not only have you tarnished the reputation of yourself, but Elder Guang's, and of the Blood Flame. Also... If your life is in the hands of someone else, you ought to be smarter next time"```

*Wei Wuxian said, tapping the ground with his cane... A large and glowing field with inscriptions and mystical symbols... It glowed brightly and emanated intense qi from within its inscriptions... This was a grand formation... Much more powerful than any placed within the sect... Why? Because, he worries for his younger sister the most...*

```"Had this been activated... You would've surely perished..."```

*He simply said*

```"Now Xiao Ore, you are free to do as you please, I shall no longer voice my opinions unless necessary"```

*He stood in front of the 3 elders, the three standing back up, both hands on his cane as he stood there... Although he did not emanate any power aura or qi... But his grandeur could be seen with just the naked eye... The confidence... Serenity... Pride... And elegance... That is what Wei Wuxian had shown, to hold his head up and be apologetic to no one but himself... He no longer would hide himself from this world, as it is now that they make ready for a great change*
