After A-Yuan's fever broke Wangji tucked him in as he slept, since he and Yingyue were going to look for Wei Ying's body again.

Yingyue placed a small mirror facing A-Yuan.

She pulled out another one and said "it's a two way mirror, I can see what happens through this one here," she said fidgeting with it.

Wangji just nodded impressed, and Yingyue then teleported them back to the burial mounds.

They walked for ages, checking every nook and cranny for a hint that may lead them somewhere.

But that was when Yingyue spotted a strange mist in the distance.

"A-niang look at that! What is it?" She said excitedly.

"Be careful Wei Yingyue!" Wangji said sternly.

"Let's just go take a closer look!"

They approached the mist slowly.

"It has poisonous fumes" Yingyue detected.

"But I sense something else... , huh? It's resentful energy!" She said smiling happily.

"We may have a lead!"

"I'll go check, you stay here Yingyue," Wangji said getting ready to go through.

"Oh no you don't," Yingyue said holding him back, " not in your condition remember?"

Wangji huffed silently.

"Fine please be careful and don't stay too long in there!" he said worriedly.

"I will a-niang don't worry!!" She said as she disappeared.

Wangji sat down and waited.

And waited.

Suddenly the mist parted and a coughing Yingyue came though with a body in her arms.

"ITS HIM! The mist must attracted to resentful energy and his body is covered in it!"

"Wei Ying" Wangji breathed, it was Wei Ying's body in Yingyue's arms.

He caught Yingyue as she collapsed..

"Are you alright little one?" He asked holding her tight.

"You scared me" he said softly.

"I'll be fine, just give me a minute and I'll be ready to teleport us back to the cave" she panted.

"Most of the bones in his body are broken after the fall" she gasped.

"We're a little bit away from where he fell, the body must have rolled down since it's sloped, and the mist must have prevented anyone else from finding his body." She continued.

As Yingyue got her breathing back to normal he banished all the mist that clung to Wei Ying's body with his guqin.

He went to pick the body up, but Yingyue picked the body up instead and shook her head at him.

"I'll carry him!" She said giving Wangji a don't-you-dare look.

She held out her hand and the world dissolved again.
