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

Chapter 85 First Encounter at the Mass Burial Mound in Yiling

Leaving aside Wei Chaoyan's emotional turmoil and utter dread upon witnessing the true appearance of the Yiling mass grave, even the netizens sitting in front of their computers or scrolling through the live stream on their phones were utterly shocked. Some froze in place, too terrified to move, while others screamed in horror, all of their previous overwhelming anticipation for this "iconic scene" completely gone. Even the soldiers and police officers, members of national organizations who had been tempered by blood and fire, stared at the live stream with bulging veins on their foreheads, clenched fists, and a sense of impending doom.

Unaware of the turmoil unfolding in the live stream, Wei Chaoyan gazed at the mysterious, flowing runes of the cursed wall in the distance, swallowed hard, and managed to squeeze out a few words from her dry, hoarse throat: "Uncle Yan, Uncle, this, this is... Yiling... the... mass grave?"

When she finally uttered the words "mass burial ground," Wei Chaoyan almost used all her strength to utter them, her teeth chattering. When she read the original novel, she could imagine from the lines how dangerous this most dangerous place in the demonic path was. But no matter how big her imagination was, she couldn't truly understand the overwhelming fear of facing death head-on without seeing the real mass burial ground with her own eyes.

Wei Chaoyan, just a glimpse from a distance of the cursed wall surrounding the Burial Mound, felt as if she were facing an unspeakable and unbearable terror. Her legs trembled, and she almost ran away. How did Wei Wuxian, who had been struck by dozens of purple lightning bolts, experienced the pain of his family's annihilation, was starving and exhausted, lost his golden core, and was beaten by Wen Chao and his gang, and had nothing left, survive those three months of hellish suffering after being thrown into the Burial Mound?

Thinking of this section, Wei Chaoyan felt as if her heart was being squeezed tightly by an invisible hand. The pain was so intense that for a moment she felt even breathing was like being cut by a knife. Surprisingly, this pain diluted the intense fear in her heart at that moment.

Wei Chaoyan, consumed by his brotherly love, ignored the overwhelming power of the chilling resentment and violent aura emanating from the mass grave. He turned to Yan Qing, who was sweating profusely and with bulging veins, seeking an answer.

Yan Qing, who was struggling to resist the terrifying power emanating from the mass grave, was somewhat surprised when she heard Wei Chaoyan's trembling question. It was quite remarkable that a little girl who had never seen much of the world could still speak under such circumstances, even though her words were broken and stammering.

Before he could even reply, Wei Chaoyan, impatient for an answer, turned her head to look at herself sitting behind her, urging her to give an answer?! You must know that he, a top-tier secret guard under the current emperor of the Great Xuan Dynasty, had experienced countless battles and witnessed countless bloody storms. Even after more than a decade of such trials, facing the terror of the mass grave, his body was still stiff and difficult to move, at least for now, unable to move any part of his body as naturally and freely as Wei Chaoyan!

Despite a storm raging within her, a jumble of chaotic thoughts racing through her mind, Yan Qing remained impassive on the surface. She blinked and said in a flat tone, "Yes, we've arrived."

"You may only observe from this spot; you may not take another step!" Yan Qing stared unwaveringly at Wei Chaoyan, who was itching to dismount and approach to examine the object after receiving his affirmative reply, and firmly rejected her blatant attempt to deliver something untoward.

Yan Qing's cold warning was like a bucket of cold water poured over Wei Chaoyan's feverish and congested head, instantly cooling down her overheated brain. After regaining her senses, Wei Chaoyan looked up and glared unwillingly at the distant mass grave a few times before closing her eyes and trying to calm her boiling, volcanic emotions before promising Yan Qing, who had a cold and stern face, that she would obey and would not act on her own.

After hearing Wei Chaoyan's earnest assurances, Yan Qing was unsure whether he was moved by Wei Chaoyan's sincerity or was certain that Wei Chaoyan could not easily escape his control and dismount recklessly under these circumstances. He simply sat upright on his horse with his eyes half-closed, waiting for Wei Chaoyan's next request.

After performing a monologue for half a day without any cooperation, Wei Chaoyan stopped her constantly opening and closing mouth, turned her head back in frustration, and stopped talking to the statue-like people behind her. She just squinted and stared indifferently at the seemingly docile and harmless mass grave in the distance. In reality, it was like a silent and obedient volcano with turbulent and boiling magma inside, which could erupt at any moment and bring about the destruction of the world. No one knew what she was thinking.

After a long silence, Wei Chaoyan regretfully withdrew her long gaze and quietly asked Yan Qing to slow down and walk around the curse wall with her. She wanted to carefully observe and compare whether she could find one or more suitable places for the resentment-repelling grass to grow nearby.

Yan Qing responded silently, then gently pulled on the reins with her slightly stiff hand, urging her horse to slowly move along the safety line.

Seeing Yan Qing's cooperative actions, Wei Chaoyan quickly chanted in the live stream: "Dear viewers, snap out of it! We're here! Get your magnifying glasses out and carefully examine the surroundings. Don't miss any clues! See if you can find any leads! Oh, and don't forget to also help me find a place that meets the growth conditions of the Repelling Grass. If you find one, post the result at the top of the live stream chat immediately. Thanks, everyone, the streamer is counting on you today!"
