Mo Lingyu sighed and lifted up her skirt.
"hiss…"
At first, everyone was a little confused, but when they saw it clearly, they all gasped in shock.
Between them, her thighs, which should have been smooth and fair, were covered with something that looked like scales, segment by segment, which was not like the skin that a human leg should have.
"Junior Sister, what's wrong with you?"
Upon seeing this, the disciples of the sect behind Mo Lingyu all cried out in alarm and rushed forward to check the situation.
"Don't come any closer. This isn't poisoning; it's a curse."
Mo Lingyu lowered her skirt again, her face filled with sorrow, and said, "Although our Yi people were not wiped out, the curse has not let us go. Every midnight, we turn into dried corpses with bird legs to atone for all the sins we have committed against the gods."
"I never expected it to turn out like this."
After listening, Fan Qiyue's feelings towards the Youyi people suddenly became complicated. "So they haven't been doing well all these years, have they?"
"Yes, it's very bad. Because of this curse, we haven't dared to go out and see anyone. We're all confined to this small area."
Mo Lingyu calmed herself down before continuing, "My grandfather was a member of the Yi clan. Fortunately, my grandmother loved him very much and kept it a secret for him, which allowed him to live a peaceful life outside. As for me, because I have some Yi clan blood, I was also tainted by the curse."
"But it's daytime now, how could you be here?" Ji Fanya couldn't help but ask.
“My situation is quite special right now. My parents used a secret technique on me at the cost of their lives so that I could live a normal life.”
Mo Lingyu lowered her head, her eyes filled with sorrow, "It was only by having many people help me share the burden of the curse that I was able to barely have a normal life."
“But those people all have scales on their legs, just like you, right?” Fan Qiyue said after thinking for a moment.
"Yes, I know my parents did this because they felt sorry for me, but I didn't want to delay or implicate others any longer. I've been trying to find a way to break free from the curse. The reason I came here was because I overheard my father blurting out something in his excitement, and that's how I learned that the ancient site of the Youyi Kingdom is buried here."
Mo Lingyu took a deep breath before slowly saying, "Furthermore, it also seals the body of the god who cursed us back then."
"Do you believe what your father said?"
Zhan Wushuang couldn't help but ask, "Generally speaking, few people would believe something so extraordinary."
"I was actually half-believing, half-doubting."
Mo Lingyu said very honestly, "I believe that our family is cursed, and I believe that our people live here, but I don't really believe that there are divine bodies here."
"I see, that makes more sense."
Fan Qiyue nodded. "So, you know the location of the village?"
"I don't know, but because of the curse, we have a special connection with each other."
Mo Lingyu continued, "I only hope that, considering my efforts to help and the fact that my people have suffered for so many years, this animal god can forgive my people and free them from this terrible curse."
"Don't worry, we will definitely find out the truth about this matter. No matter who is right or wrong, we will resolve this grievance."
Fan Qiyue stepped forward and gently helped Mo Lingyu up. "You are so sincere, I believe Wang Ziye can feel it too. After so many years, all the resentment should have dissipated."
