Days passed, and today was a rest day—their first break since coming to the Cloud Recesses for lectures. Wei Wuxian, Jiang Cheng, Nie Huaisang, and the others were wandering around the Cloud Recesses when they reached the mountain gate. There, they saw an elder dressed as a villager talking to a Gusu Lan Clan disciple, and they faintly caught the words "water ghouls." Wei Wuxian's brow twitched.
Wei Wuxian: "Jiang Cheng, Brother Nie, do you want to go down the mountain to get rid of some water ghouls?"
Alarm bells rang in Jiang Cheng's head. Looking at Wei Wuxian's solemn face, he said: "Wei Wuxian, don't stir up trouble. This is the business of the Gusu Lan Clan, and we are just here to attend the lectures."
