A few years after the Guanyin temple incident, Nie Huaisang used a very intricate, elaborate and powerful ritual array, using a piece of yin iron and 10 sabers from the saber hall. It was balanced through 10 people, 5 living- Wei Ying, Lan Zhan, Lan Xichen, Nie Huaisang, Jiang Cheng and 5 dead- Wen Ning, Wen Qing, Xie Hua (Wei Hua), Jiang Yanli, Jin Zixuan. All wake up just before the march to the Nightless city. After Wen Rouhan's death, Wei Ying sends his ghost soldiers to evacuate Dafan mountain and a few other villages filled with Wen civillians. He is found by his brother, who had also come back. He tells him to send them to a town emptied due to a few crimes, millitary conscription and people going to the capital.
