[Mo Dao Zu Shi Fanfiction] I Raise A Ying in Yiling

Wei Chaoyan knew this was an extremely dangerous decision. Lady Yan would definitely agree that she couldn't bear the responsibility of cutting off the supply of the Repelling Grass, and once she agreed, it would mean that she had one foot in the grave.

The area where the Repelling Grass is located is fraught with danger. Even though Wei's father knew the exact location, he was always seriously injured every time he went there, let alone Wei Chaoyan, who didn't know the exact location. What's worse, there's a high probability that the Repelling Grass no longer exists at the old location, requiring them to go to another unfamiliar area to search for it, which undoubtedly increases the level of danger.

But she had to go now, not only to rescue Wei Ying as quickly as possible, but also to avoid being coerced into going later. It was better to take the initiative herself and keep the initiative in her own hands. This way, she would have enough time to do the preparation work. (The emperor and the others wouldn't care if Wei's father and the others died, but the fact that they would no longer have the Repelling Grass would make them angry. You can imagine what they would do in extreme anger. They would coerce and entice Wei Chaoyan, their daughter who knew the truth, to go and collect new Repelling Grass. As for what price she would pay, that was none of their business.)

"Father, Mother, if you are watching from heaven, please bless your daughter! Senior Wei Changze, Senior Cangse, you must also bless me to succeed!!" Wei Chaoyan cried out in her heart.

When they reached the fabric shop, Wei Chaoyan slowed her pace, took a deep breath to calm her overly nervous emotions, and forced a calm and confident expression before leading Qingyan and Qiye into the shop unhurriedly.

Upon entering the shop, Wei Chaoyan went straight to the counter and said to the shopkeeper who was sitting behind the counter, "Please go and inform your shop owner, Madam Yan, that Wei Chaoyan, the daughter of my old friend Madam Li, has come to pay her respects."

Upon hearing this, the shopkeeper looked Wei Chaoyan up and down and found that she did look very familiar. A lady had once brought her to the shop to meet Lady Yan. Therefore, he said that Wei Chaoyan and the other two should wait in the shop for a moment, and he would go to report to Lady Yan.

Not long after the shopkeeper left, Madam Yan slowly came from the backyard: "Yan girl, why did you bring two children to my place today? Shouldn't you be in Wei Village observing mourning for your father and father?"

Instead of directly answering Yan Niangzi's question, Wei Chaoyan said, "Aunt Yan, I have come here today to discuss something with you. Would you mind if we went to talk in detail?"

"Oh? Then come with me to the inner room to talk." Lady Yan curiously agreed to her request.

Just as Madam Yan was about to turn around and lead her back to the inner room, Wei Chaoyan quickly said, "Wait, Aunt Yan, could you find someone to help look after my two younger brothers?" She pointed to Qi Ye and Qing Yan beside her.

"Alright!" It seemed that what Yan Yatou wanted to tell her was quite important. Yan Niangzi said with amusement, "Manager Liu, find someone to keep the two young masters company and remember to prepare tea and snacks for them."

After speaking, she raised her chin to signal Wei Chaoyan to follow her, and then walked directly into the inner room. Wei Chaoyan followed her into the backyard.

Upon entering the inner room, Madam Yan sat down first and said, "What is it? Let's sit down and talk." She casually picked up the warm teapot on the table and poured Wei Chaoyan a cup of tea. "Have a taste, how does your mother's favorite flower tea taste?"

Wei Chaoyan calmly sat down, picked up the teacup on the table, took a sip, and praised, "It tastes good, sweet on the palate." He looked up at Lady Yan and said, "I have come here unexpectedly to discuss something."

Lady Yan slowly raised her eyebrows without replying. "It's about the deal between Aunt Yan and my father..." Before Wei Chaoyan could finish speaking, Lady Yan raised her hand to signal her to stop, then immediately got up, opened the door, and called her husband, who was in the next room, to have people surround the inner room to prevent anyone from getting close. Only after confirming that there was no one else around did they hurriedly return to the inner room.

As soon as she entered the room, before she even sat down, she mumbled, "Your father is dead. Do you know what to do about this?"

Seeing that Lady Yan was so anxious that she had forgotten the composure, caution, and forbearance that she, as a veteran spy, should possess, and asked a question that was far below her usual standard, Wei Chaoyan, who had little experience, immediately noticed her urgency. It seemed that the court had put a lot of pressure on her since her father's death, so much so that she was feeling overwhelmed.

Upon learning of Lady Yan's attitude, Wei Chaoyan calmly and composedly revealed her plan: "Although I do not know the exact location..."

Upon hearing this, Yan Niangzi's hope dimmed, and the anger of being fooled in her heart was interrupted by Wei Chaoyan's next words before it could even ignite. "But I know where and how to find it, and I'm sure I can find it. It's just that I'll be taking a big risk, so..." After saying this, Wei Chaoyan stopped talking and directly picked up her teacup to drink her tea.

Wei Chaoyan's words immediately calmed Yan Niangzi down, and her lost rationality returned. Knowing that Wei Chaoyan's behavior must mean she wanted something, she stopped beating around the bush and asked directly, "Yan girl, just tell me what you want. As long as Aunt Yan can do it, I will do my best!"

"Do you know about the orphan in town who's being targeted by Wang the Rich Man's second son?"

Lady Yan nodded, a bad feeling creeping into her heart.

"I hope you can use your power to help me adopt him." Wei Chaoyan stated her request directly, "I want him to be adopted by me openly and honestly, without leaving any future troubles." Wei Chaoyan emphasized the words "openly and honestly, without leaving any future troubles."

Upon hearing Wei Chaoyan's conditions, Lady Yan frowned. "Can't you change your request? For example, the court could give you gold and silver treasures, or even a county princess title. You know you're still young and have two younger brothers to take care of. These things would provide you with much more security." Lady Yan tentatively suggested other conditions to try and change her mind.

"There are no other conditions, this is the only one!" Wei Chaoyan emphasized firmly, word by word.

"This..." Lady Yan hesitated. Although she would be severely punished without the resentment-repelling herb, she couldn't bear the consequences of mishandling things if she agreed to Wei Chaoyan's conditions!

This isn't about whether or not to deal with a small-time rich man; rather, if Lady Yan intervenes in this matter, it means the imperial court is interfering in the cultivation world!

This child is not only a pitiful orphan who is now being bullied by unscrupulous bullies, but his parents are also renowned rogue cultivators in the cultivation world, and he is also connected to the powerful cultivation clan Yunmeng Jiang Clan and the legendary cultivator Baoshan Sanren.

This child can be taken in by any immortal sect or noble family, taken away by a rogue cultivator, adopted by a mortal, or even fall into the hands of human traffickers or die alone and bullied, but cannot have any connection with the imperial court.
