At the Ling Yun Sect, Wei Wuxian was working in his office, his fingers flying over the pages of ancient tomes as he researched new spells and techniques to combat the fierce corpses.He was so engrossed in his work that he didn't notice the messenger until he spoke up. 

"Sect Leader Wei," the messenger said, his voice tinged with urgency. "A message has arrived from the Lan Sect. They are under attack, as are the Jin and Jian Sects."

Wei Wuxian's head snapped up, his eyes flashing with concern. "What?" he exclaimed. "How could this be? The fierce corpses have never attacked the major sects at once before."

The messenger nodded, his expression grave. "I don't know, Sect Leader. The message said that the Lan Sect requested urgent assistance, but they were unaware of the situation at the other sects."

Wei Wuxian stood up from his desk, his mind racing as he considered the implications of the message. "We must go," he said decisively. "The major sects need our help, But I am unsure, You are dismissed." The messengar leaves and Wei Wuxian call a meeting with the board.

.....

The Ling Yun Sect, located in the treacherous Brutal Mount, was the gathering place for Wei Wuxian and his advisory board. The board members - Feng Lu, Han Fang, Fang Xiao, Shu Yang, Shun Yin, and Fu Yi - huddled together in the sect's war room, their faces etched with concern as they discussed the crisis at hand.

"The major sects are under attack," Wei Wuxian stated, his voice grave. "The Lan, Jin, and Jian Sects are in desperate need of our aid."

Feng Lu, the eldest board member, nodded. "We cannot ignore the plight of our fellow cultivators," she agreed. "The cultivation world must stand united against this threat."Han Fang agreed. "If we do not help now, we could be next on the list of targets," he said, his voice sharp with anxiety.

But Fang Xiao offered a note of caution. "Our disciples' safety is paramount," he argued. "We must consider the risks of sending them into battle against an unknown enemy."

Shun Yin spoke up next, her expression thoughtful. "Perhaps we can send a small group of our most skilled cultivators to aid the other sects," she suggested. "This way, we can provide support without leaving the Ling Yun Sect vulnerable."

The other board members considered her words, their faces lined with worry. The decision to send aid was not an easy one - the safety of their own disciples was a paramount concern. But they also knew that if they did not stand together against the fierce corpses, the consequences could be dire for all the sects.

Wei Wuxian weighed the options carefully. He knew that the Ling Yun Sect was powerful, and he also felt a no sense of responsibility to the cultivation world as a whole. After a long moment, he came to a decision.

"We will send a small contingent of our best fighters to aid the other sects," he announced. "But we must also strengthen our own defenses in case the fierce corpses turn their attention to us."

The board members nodded in agreement, their expressions resolute. They knew that the road ahead would be difficult and dangerous, but they were determined to do their part to protect the cultivation world from the fierce corpse threat.

As the advisory board members dispersed to carry out Wei Wuxian's orders, he turned his attention to the task of selecting the cultivators who would be sent to aid the other sects.

He knew that it would be a dangerous mission, requiring not only physical strength and skill, but also mental fortitude and resilience in the face of a terrifying enemy. He carefully considered the abilities and experience of each of his disciples, weighing their strengths and weaknesses before making his final choices.

Meanwhile, word of the Ling Yun Sect's decision to send aid spread throughout the cultivation world, garnering praise and admiration from other sects. Some even offered their own resources and assistance to help in the fight against the fierce corpses.

The chosen cultivators prepared for their journey, honing their skills and sharpening their weapons. They knew that they would be facing a formidable enemy, and they trained diligently, determined to make their sect proud.

As they set off on their mission, a sense of hope and unity permeated the cultivation world. The Ling Yun Sect's decision to stand with the other sects was a beacon of strength and solidarity in the face of a common enemy.

.....

Wei Wuxian and Lan Zhan sat together in the war room of the Ling Yun Sect, the weight of their discoveries heavy on their minds. Wei Wuxian turned to Lan Zhan, his expression serious."These attacks are not random," he said. "There is something more going on here, and I intend to find out what it is."

Lan Zhan nodded, his gaze steady. "I will help you," he said. "We must get to the bottom of this mystery and protect our Sect."

Wei Wuxian felt a surge of gratitude towards his Husband and fellow cultivator. With Lan Zhan by his side, he knew that they could face any challenge.

Over the next few days, Wei Wuxian threw himself into the investigation, pouring over ancient texts and consulting with experts. He was determined to uncover the truth behind the fierce corpse attacks and to find a way to stop them.

He discovered references to a powerful artifact, said to have the ability to control fierce corpses. The artifact had been lost for centuries, It had more information about dark Cultivation, and Wei Wuxian was convinced that it was somehow connected to the recent attacks.

With Lan Zhan's help, he began to piece together the clues, following a trail that led them deeper into the mystery. They knew that they were up against a formidable enemy, but they were also determined to protect their Sect from the fierce corpse threat.

.....

As the days passed, the fierce corpses grew stronger and more relentless in their attacks. The major sects were struggling to hold them off, and the sound of battle echoed through the halls of the Jian, Jin, and Lan Sects.

Lan Xichen, witnessing the increasing strength of the fierce corpses, felt a sense of panic rising in his chest. He knew that they were facing a formidable enemy, and he feared for the safety of his disciples and the other sects.

"We must find a way to stop them," he said to his advisors, his voice taut with worry. "If we do not, the consequences could be disastrous."

His advisors nodded in agreement, their faces grave. "We will do everything in our power to help," they said. "We must stand together against this threat."

Lan Xichen turned to one of his most trusted disciples, a young woman named Ling Shu. "I need you to take a team of our best cultivators and go to the other sects," he said. "Offer them our assistance and find out what you can about the fierce corpses. We need to understand their strengths and weaknesses if we hope to defeat them." Ling Shu nodded, her expression determined.
