After discussing matters with Qin Jiawei's team for a long time, Liu Chengchao left.
Qin Jiawei patted Liu Chengchao on the shoulder. "Keep today's conversation confidential."
Liu Chengchao nodded.
He knew Qin Jiawei was not referring to Heize, but to the two abnormalities on the corpse.
That was Qin Jiawei's field of research, and it concerned the will of the upper echelons.
"Alright." Liu Chengchao nodded.
What he was responsible for now was uncovering the hidden historical truth of the Great Wilderness Mountain Range.
Not investigating the abnormalities of the remains.
Liu Chengchao left the building and headed toward the sedan ahead.
Given Liu Chengchao's status, he had his own car and driver.
However, Liu Chengchao's gaze froze slightly, and he paused.
He had spotted an acquaintance.
"Hello, Old Liu. We meet again." A woman in casual clothes looked at him.
Liu Chengchao recognized her.
She was one of the people by Miss Jia's side.
At that time, Miss Jia had been accompanied by a group of people.
They all seemed either wealthy and noble, or powerful and influential.
Most of them were from the military.
However, there were also people from the political side.
The woman before him was probably from the political side.
"I was about to see Old Qin. I didn't expect to find you outside, so I came over to say hello," the woman said casually.
Liu Chengchao did not know her position or identity, but he knew it must be far from ordinary.
"What a coincidence. I just finished discussing matters with Old Qin." Liu Chengchao smiled.
"Oh, Old Liu, an order from above will probably come down in another day."
I'll overstep a little and tell you beforehand." The woman wore a smile.
Liu Chengchao's expression turned solemn. "What order?"
It seemed the other party was definitely one of the upper echelons.
Otherwise, she could not possibly know so much.
"Don't be nervous, Old Liu. It's nothing major."
"If Heize's corpse is found, don't conduct examinations or the like right away. Preserve and protect it first," the middle-aged woman said, her gaze calm.
"This..." Liu Chengchao was somewhat puzzled. Why was she telling him this?
Was there something special about Heize's corpse?
"Alright." Liu Chengchao nodded without voicing his doubts.
Just then, the middle-aged woman smiled apologetically. "I need to take a call. It's my daughter."
"Xueyan, why did you run off to Tianhai?"
"I'm following Miss Jia now, in Cangxi. Do you want to come to Cangxi and have some fun?"
"Haha, Miss Jia isn't that frightening. She isn't some god either, just an ordinary person. Otherwise, why would she, like a little girl such as you, be interested in Heize?"
"Besides, Miss Jia has a very good relationship with your Aunt Qin."
"Isn't Aunt Qin the person you admire most?"
"You've recently taken a liking to a student from Tianhai University named Lin Chao?"
"I'm not that old-fashioned. Bring him home someday and let your Aunt Qin vet him for you."
The middle-aged woman hung up.
Beside her, Liu Chengchao's expression remained unchanged.
The middle-aged woman had only said a few words during that phone call.
Although it had not been much, Liu Chengchao had still gleaned plenty of useful information.
"Old Liu, I'll head in first." The middle-aged woman greeted Liu Chengchao and entered the building ahead.
Liu Chengchao nodded.
His mind was actually in turmoil.
This middle-aged woman should have been one of the upper echelons.
Yet before Miss Jia, she seemed to be a rank lower.
Miss Jia looked very young. At that age, she could not possibly hold a very high position within the system.
Even if her parents were powerful and noble.
Those were still her parents.
She could not possibly wield her parents' authority.
Everything about this revealed something strange.
Most importantly, the order from above was bizarre: do not examine Heize's remains.
That was truly absurd.
Could Miss Jia be pushing this from the shadows?
Why would she do that?
Liu Chengchao felt that not only was history shrouded in mist.
The mist enshrouding reality was just as thick.
"If I remember correctly, when I died, there were still some Wolf Guards who hadn't been killed. But they probably couldn't get out either and would die inside the valley. It's just that my corpse..."
Lin Chao looked at the trending searches online about Heize.
Watching a trending topic about himself from an outsider's perspective was quite an interesting feeling.
At present, the excavation was already more than halfway complete.
As more and more corpses were uncovered and photographs exposed, the Great Wilderness Mountain Range grew increasingly popular.
Heize in particular had been praised as Great Xia's number one war god.
A war god who sealed wolves at Mount Xuwu.
Of course, Lin Chao merely smiled at such remarks.
Neither Heize nor he himself understood military strategy.
Calling them war gods was simply ridiculous.
"Going by the looks of it, if they keep digging, they'll definitely find Heize's corpse."
"Then... is that really my corpse?"
Lin Chao felt as though he had fallen into a tangle of conflicted thoughts.
"Forget it, I won't think about it anymore. I should continue simulating reincarnation instead."
During this time, he had looked through some information about Great Cang, but there had been little of value to gain.
There were almost no serious historical records concerning Great Cang.
According to the current account, Azure Lord had been cruel and tyrannical, burning books and scriptures.
Lin Chao had also found time during this period to continue simulating reincarnation.
By now, on Great Cang's timeline, he was already a fourteen-year-old youth.
In that era, he was already old enough to establish a family and career.
"Begin reincarnation simulation."
Lin Chao spoke and reincarnated once more.
