He closed his eyes, being able to recall the memories as if they were from yesterday. It was years ago. He had a hand in so much of it. His father wanted what We Wuxian had. He was going to tell them that truth. what was the point in hiding and lying for a man that only had his pain in mind?
"I'm going to add a few amendments here, Er-re you don't know some of this, because they were Jin sect secrets. But I want you to both to know them since it ties in with events later." He took a deep breath.
"After the war, my father had wanted the Stygian tiger seal that Wei Wuxian had. This weapon had allowed us to help win the war against the Wens.
Many of the Jin actions were in service to this objective. I'm sorry Er-ge, Wei Wuxian was astute in his observation during the flower banquet. Father was furious. It was true that he was performing demonic cultivation. And he had resurrected Wen Ning as a fierce corpse that he could control after freeing the Wens from the labor camps.
Jin Zixun had a hundred holes curse put on him and had thought that Wei Wuxian had caused it they had fought earlier. I... had sent my half brother to help the situation. Madame Jiang was adamant about wanting Wei Wuxian for the ceremony and I thought that perhaps if anyone, he could bring the man under Jin Control.
...I shouldn't have told him about it. They both ended up dead. Jin Zixuan was kind to me, probably the only person asides from my sister-in-law who acknowledged me as a person in Koi Tower. He demanded the heads of Wen Ning and Wen Qing, there was an incident that caused Wen Ning to go mad, killing a few cultivators. We burned Wen Qing, and my father had Wen Ning imprisoned. After that, my father used my brother and my cousin's death to rally in Nightless city.
During this event, Wei Wuxian confronted the cultivators who were there and it led to a battle. During this time a grief-stricken Madame Jiang made her way to the battlefield and was killed in the crossfire, she died trying to save her martial brother.
Then there was the siege at the burial mounds, where Wei Wuxian finally perished. Qin Su and I were wed after the siege. I had saved her on the battlefield at Langya during the war. She was determined to marry me despite my background. An alliance between the Jin and Qin was a good one.
After some time, my father had died, his proclivities..." well he killed him in an ironic way but he wasn't ready, not yet. He will tell them but let them get settled first. "In such a shameful way. Jiang Cheng and I took over custody of Zixuan's child Jin Ling, courtesy name Jin Rulan. My stepmother was in no condition to care for him.
The elders had decided that I was the one most fit to be the sect leader, at least until A-Ling came of age. I was doing most of the running of the sect by that point anyway. He was named my sect heir. The cultivation world had also named me the chief cultivator. A title that had more headaches involved than anything else. really. My father was the one pushing for it and when he died the responsibility fell on me."
