Seeing the throngs of people, jostling shoulder to shoulder, Yang Yan couldn't help but frown.
No wonder it's the most populous country; even in such cold weather, there are so many people out to play.
From the looks of it, those guys can't even think about slaying a dragon here, let alone doing anything else!
"What's wrong?"
After checking the tickets, the two ghosts and two people finally walked up to the Great Wall.
Zhou Hanyun looked at Yang Yan, who seemed lost in thought, and couldn't help but ask quietly.
"Nothing, it's just that there are so many people. It's not even a holiday, and the New Year's over. Why do these people still have so much time?"
Yang Yan shook his head, speaking somewhat helplessly.
"Haha! After all, this is one of the most iconic attractions of Huaxia. Friends from any country would definitely choose this place first."
"Moreover, even domestically, the Great Wall is well-known. Isn't there a saying, 'He who has never been to the Great Wall is not a true man'?"
"So, anyone coming to the Imperial Capital, if they have the time, almost never misses this place. Therefore, there's really no telling when it's low season here."
Zhou Hanyun explained with a smile.
Since she plans to develop in the Imperial Capital, she clearly has done enough research and is well-versed in these basics.
"Yang Yan, we feel very uneasy here. Haven't you noticed anything wrong?"
Wuyou glanced at You Meng, then turned to remind Yang Yan.
Of course, this time she turned her head like a normal person, unlike last night when her head turned without her body moving.
"Uneasy? How so?"
Hearing Wuyou's words, Yang Yan couldn't help but frown.
Wuyou is a very peculiar existence.
Clearly a Sha, but the Merit Golden Light on her is so bright that it feels somewhat dazzling to him.
However, now she says she's uncomfortable, so naturally there is some kind of peculiar power here directly affecting her.
"I can't quite explain it; I always feel like something is suppressing me."
Wuyou gently shook her head, uncertainly.
She initially thought Yang Yan would surely sense it, but now it seems the situation is perhaps not as she imagined.
Hearing Wuyou's words, Yang Yan immediately shifted his gaze to You Meng.
He wanted to see how You Meng was reacting.
"No need to look at me; I'm the same as Sister Wuyou. There's indeed something here suppressing us."
"Although it won't harm us, it does make us feel very uncomfortable."
Leng Youmeng frowned lightly as well.
Upon hearing this, Yang Yan cautiously let his senses go.
Because he was afraid of being noticed by the other party, since stepping onto the Great Wall, he had kept himself disguised as an ordinary person, hiding all his detectable breaths.
Once he quietly released his senses, Yang Yan also noticed the anomaly here.
Indeed, as Wuyou and Youmeng said, something here was suppressing his senses, making him feel very uncomfortable.
"It should be the Great Wall itself, rather than anyone meddling with anything."
"But thinking about it, this was built in ancient times to repel foreign invaders, so it's not surprising to have some Aura Forms here."
"Of course, in its current state, it is indeed quite distressing!"
Yang Yan whispered.
"Maybe, both of you should avoid going further?"
Yang Yan suggested, lowering his voice.
"No way!"
Wuyou raised an eyebrow and flatly refused Yang Yan:
"I feel like there's something here calling out to me, and it's sensed through the Merit Golden Light."
"Most likely, there's something extremely ominous and evil here."
Upon hearing Wuyou's words, Yang Yan's heart sank.
He was even more sure of the presence of Taowu here.
When it comes to something extremely ominous and evil, what else in Huaxia is more notorious than the Four Fierce Beasts?
"Keep going, be careful, just conceal your aura. This suppression seems to only target people of the Hidden World."
After saying this, Yang Yan retracted his senses and continued walking forward nonchalantly.
In modern times, the Great Wall has not been without repairs.
There are roughly two main reasons for this.
One is natural disasters.
Due to its age, the frost and thaw have greatly damaged this magnificent structure.
The second is man-made disaster.
Besides the limited damage from wars, there are always some meddlesome people who like to carve "So-and-so was here" on the ancient bricks as a souvenir.
On the Great Wall, when it comes to scenery, most people aren't too keen; it's merely to feel the atmosphere or fulfill a wish.
Otherwise, there's genuinely nothing much to see.
For landscapes, there are many places across the Shen Zhou Land more beautiful than here.
The four of them continued walking along the Great Wall, Zhou Hanyun silently feeling the weight of history it brought, as well as the heroic sentiments expressed in the poetic lines of great men, like "Looking beyond the Great Wall, the vastness that remains."
Meanwhile, Yang Yan continuously scanned the surroundings with his naked eye, looking for suitable places to set up the Eight Trigrams Array.
"We can't go any further."
Wuyou suddenly stopped and turned to Yang Yan, speaking softly.
"What's the matter?"
Yang Yan hadn't deployed his senses, so he didn't know what Wuyou was referring to.
"That thing is right ahead! If we move forward now, it will discover us."
She appeared anxious, possibly affected by Taowu.
"Then retract your senses and disguise yourself as a regular person. If you both focus on concealing, that creature, no matter how powerful, surely won't find you?"
Yang Yan chuckled softly.
"No way! Not just us, even you would be the same. Don't be deceived by your normal appearance; thinking you're safe. I'm sure the moment you move closer, that creature will spot you."
Wuyou shook her head, earnestly replying.
"Is it really that capable?"
Yang Yan asked incredulously.
His full-on concealment could truly make him indistinguishable from ordinary people.
But now, Wuyou definitively stated that if he got any closer, that entity would discover him?
"It's true!"
Seeing Yang Yan's apparent disbelief, Leng Youmeng quickly chimed in:
"There's not just that creature, but probably other entities as well. You know, I've walked the Path of Solitude, and I'm well-versed with such intangible beings."
Upon hearing the two women's words, Yang Yan finally believed them completely.
It seems the complexity of the situation was beyond his estimation.
Those guys must have prepared long ago.
