"Controlling corpses Wei Ying isn't that to advance" Lan Zhan stated
They both knew to control puppets or corpses would require the yin iron or the Stygian Tiger Amulet also know as the Yin tiger tally
Wei Ying understood Lan Zhan's concerns It wasn't possible to control living people except the dead ones but with the people missing and their resentment he couldn't help feeling that this master mind could some how control this people and if he was correct he was feeding on their resentment
The Lan juniors had heard the tales and seen wei wuxian control corpses and they knew the only other person was xue yang but he was dead.
"It impossible Xue Yang is dead" lan YI shouted his voice louder than the rules permitted it to be luckily no one was listening to the group of cultivators they were all drunk around them
His voice lowered as he spoke the next sentence "his dead isn't he Wei Wuxian?" Lan Yi was blinking rapidly nervous his heart beat increasing waiting for the answer.
"He should be but it might not be him--"
Wei Wuxian was rudely interrupted by lan fen
"Master Wei you were dead once weren't you?" Lan Fen looked at Wei Wuxian not blinking once
Wei Ying felt the sting in his words he understood Lan Fen's theory but he didn't know if he was liked by Lan Fen he never did talk to him except he was sent or if Lan Zhan was around he decided not to dwell on it "that true but--"
"Exactly then we can't safely assume he is dead he might not be" Lan Fen cut Wei Wuxain's sentences again while looking at the low table where his tea cup was placed on, admiring the beautiful designs on the tea cup his eyes left the tea cup to look at Wei Wuxian's eyes "Master wei"
"Let us focus on finding the missing people first and not bring up past matters that don't relate with the case" Lan Wangji's look of displeasure showed for only Wei Ying's eyes to see
Lan Fen bowed his head back his gaze leaving Wei Wuxian's face. they all chorused together " Yes Hanguang-Jun"
Wei Ying laughed and held Lan Zhan's cold palms in his own palms greatful for the support "I agree with you my dear Hanguang-Jun and I think i know how we should proceed from here I can sense little resentful energy and i can follow the trail with the use of the Yin burning tails man till it leads us to where the resentful energy is most thick and we can draw what ever is causing this out"
"Master Wei we could use the spirit attraction flags" sizhui spoke up delighted to show his intuition. He had used them before when he met master wei as moxuanyu
"Brilliant sizhui we can use that to draw out the resentful beings and the corpses" he reached out to pat sizhui on the head he was sitting opposite him beside Lan Yi while Lan Fen was beside Lan Zhan and Lan Haoyu was beside sizhui.
Sizhui was happy he knew the more experience the user has drawing the incantations and motifs, the greater the flag's effective range and the more powerful spiritual beings it can attract
"We leave for the morning then" Lan Wangji spoke up quietly Eager to finish up what he had started with his beloved earlier and go on their case the next morning.
He had a lot of suspicious thoughts and he just hoped they were all wrong.
He looked at wei ying noticing the white fore head ribbon around a finger's width, Cloud patterns sewn onto them sitting beautifully round Wei Ying’s ebony black hair on his fore head
Lan Zhan was staring at him thinking of the motto of the GusuLan clan is 'righteousness,' meaning of the fore head ribbon that meant 'to conduct one's self well'.
