MDZS Characters Watching the Future

6. Phantom Attraction Flag

"I think nothing good will happen." said a random cultivator eagerly watching the screen.

Mo ZiYuan was originally held down by his father, but, after hearing this, he was close to losing his temper again. Wei WuXian lept outside quickly, and the boy blocked the entrance at once, switching to another topic with a serious tone, “Then, we will borrow the West Courtyard for the night. Please remember the things that I’ve talked about—after nightfall, close all of the windows, don’t come outside, or worse, walk toward the courtyard.”

"He is definitely protecting him." a disciple said about Sizhui.

Madam Mo was shaking from anger, “Yes, yes, please…” Mo ZiYuan found it beyond belief, “Mom! The lunatic insulted me in front of so many people, and that’s it? You told me before; you told me that he was only a…”

Madam Mo commanded, “Be quiet. Can’t you wait until we go back?”

Mo ZiYuan had never been at such a disadvantage or been disgraced like this before, with his mother’s scolding making the situation worse. He was full of hatred, and thought, this lunatic is going down tonight!

"I think he's the one who's going down." said Jiang Cheng glaring at the screen.

"He is going to do something stupid." said Nie Huaisang.

The juniors just look at them as they were right about what they said.

After Wei WuXian finished flipping out, he walked out the door of the Mo family’s place, and showed his face around the Mo village. Although he surprised countless people, he was, in fact, loving every second of it, and finally realized the delight of being a lunatic. He was even starting to approve of the makeup that resembled a hanged ghost, almost unwilling to wash it away. He fixed his hair and looked at his wrists. The cuts didn’t seem like they were healing at all, which meant that a slight revenge like this would not be approved by the forbidden technique.

"Now you accepted that you're a lunatic." commented Jiang Cheng.

"You seemed to enjoy it a lot, Wei-xiong." said Nie Huaisang.

"It looks fun." said Wei Wuxian and they just shook their heads.

"So he is trying to humiliate them to know what exactly the revenge Mo Xuanyu really wanted." said Lan Xichen.

"I thought he was just being shameless." said Jin Zixuan.

Would he really have to eliminate the Mo family?

To be honest, it wouldn’t be too difficult of a task.

"He'll really eliminate the whole family." exclaimed Su She.

"Shut up!" yelled Jingyi while the Jiangs are glaring at him.

Wei WuXian strolled back to the Mo family’s West Courtyard. The disciples of the Lan clan were standing on top of the roofs and walls, discussing with a solemn look. Although the GusuLan clan contributed greatly during the siege on him, at that time, these juniors were either not born yet or still young children. He shouldn’t direct his hate towards them, so Wei WuXian decided to linger around and observe what they were going to do. After a while, he felt like something was wrong.

"So he hates the Lans." said a rouge cultivator said.

"No, he doesn't. Wei-daijui will never hate us." said Jingyi.

Why did the fluttering black flags on top of the roofs and walls look so familiar to him?

This type of flags was called the “Phantom Attraction Flag”. If it was set on a living person, it would attract all of the spirits, wronged ghosts, moving corpses, or evil beings within a certain area, so that they would only attack that person. Because the flag-bearing person would be turned into a living target, it was also called the “Target Flag.” It could also be set on a house, but the house must have living humans inside of it. Then, the attack range would expand to include everyone inside the house. Because of how there would always be a sinister energy that surrounded the area in which the flag was set in, as if there was a swirling black wind, they were also called “Black Wind Flags”. Arranging the flag formation in the West Courtyard and not allowing anyone to approach them must have meant that they wanted to lead the Walking Corpses here and capture them in one go.
