[ Jing Yuan regards the board in front of him carefully, studies where the pieces lay and the moves available to them. to him. ]
I am aware, A-Ying.
I can assure you that throughout this year I have felt nothing abnormal about my spiritual energy. Nor has Hua Cheng from my understanding. Jun Wu hadn't the strength to pose a threat when I consumed him, if something were to happen it would have already happened.
i've seen these things build slowly overtime, yuan'er. excess of resentful energy manifesting in others and while not possessing them leading to qi deviation. and that was just from proximity.
that is the reason i worry.
[Even if he never knew Chifeng-zun personally, that entire situation, the knowledge of the Nie clan's sabers and how Jin Guangyao masterfully took advantage of the entire thing. Perhaps it was paranoid, but... things cropping up in Wei Ying's periphery recently had echos of past lives on the mind.
The consistent double-presence his Nephew brought home every day was another thing. Whatever immense power laid within Harumasa. Viktor becoming not quite possessed but still having some kind of manifestation.
Much has been building and Wei Ying felt himself tempted to dive into another investigation after the Jumanji situations. It was now or never, basically.]
i knew you had your contract price and i didn't ask you what it was for a long while. because i waited to see if you would tell me yourself. you wouldnt explain it unless i brought it to you, though, right?
[Truly one in the same in this regard, weren't they? Usually in matters this important, Wei Ying actually demonstrated tact and didn't pry. He left well enough alone.
I am, outside in the yard. [ hm, at the very least neither Blade or Dan Heng are home currently. he would not enjoy having to have this conversation within their ear shot just yet. ] Snowmoon can bring you to me when you arrive.
[He had to express excitement for his favoritest cats ever somehow, even if the situation was serious. As promised though, it's a short while later that Wei Wuxian arrived at his friend's house and taken to him on a whole ass Legendary Lion house cat Pokemon.
Yes, he also gave it treats. In right front of favther.]
Snowmoon will like me better than you at this rate, Yuan'er.

You're right. I would prefer not to speak on it if I can help it, but I won't turn you away if you truly wish to know.
no subject
This time, however.]
I think I've waited long enough.

This is conversation better had in person. Is there anywhere particular you wish to meet?
