The Request

"Director Zhang, hey, Director Zhang, wake up!"

"Oh, Mr. Feng, what brings you here!"

Zhang Xuezhou spent nearly an hour and a half in the Luowu Emperor's Mausoleum. When he returned to his body, he saw several more figures under the excavator, and Feng Zhang Xuezhou waved repeatedly, greeting him.

This caused Zhang Xuezhou, whose Yang Soul had returned to his body, to shake his head slightly before greeting them as if he had just woken up from a dream.

Zhang Xuezhou coughed lightly, unlocked the cab, and then jumped off the excavator.

"I heard from Ziqiang that you were opening the Luowu Emperor's Mausoleum, so I hurriedly pulled some strings to rent a flying vehicle and rushed over," Feng Xiangyu said.

"Committee Member Zhang!"

Then, Zhu Youjia, looking somewhat helpless, bowed to Zhang Xuezhou.

Clearly, Feng Xiangyu's rapid arrival in Dongshan was inseparable from the Zhu family's help.

Although Zhang Xuezhou has become the manager of the Dongshan Imperial Mausoleum, the Zhu family has maintained many relationships with the old guard and descendants of the fallen dynasty for decades, and sometimes they have to give these people some face.

Zhu Youjia peered into the tomb of Emperor Luo Wu.

Dongshan is to be transformed into a tourist area combined with a museum, and these imperial tombs will inevitably be excavated and may even become part of the museum and open to tourists.

In other words, the opening time of the many tombs in the Dongshan Imperial Mausoleum is only a matter of sooner or later, and it may even require filling and rebuilding many imperial mausoleums according to their original appearance.

Zhang Xuezhou, the director of the management office, opening an imperial tomb was not a big deal. Moreover, Zhang Xuezhou was extremely disciplined and was willing to wait for people after opening it. Zhu Youjia felt that Zhang Xuezhou was being far too polite to the old guard.

"Director Zhang, why did you suddenly think of opening the Luo Wu Emperor's Mausoleum?" Feng Xiangyu asked with a forced smile.

Feng Xiangyu clearly understood what Zhu Youjia could think of.

Seeing that Zhang Xuezhou had not entered the tomb without permission or caused any damage, Feng Xiangyu felt a great sense of relief.

"I heard from Ziqiang that Emperor Luowu loved to meet heroes from all over the world, even after his death. I also happen to enjoy meeting heroes from all over the world and wanted to see the most powerful emperor in Luofu's history, so I dug up these bluestone pillars," Zhang Xuezhou said with a smile. "It would be good if Elder Feng could be a witness when he arrives, so that no one will accuse me of stealing from him!"

"No, no," Feng Xiangyu waved his hands repeatedly, "Even if you don't open it today, this imperial tomb will be opened in the future. You chose the first imperial tomb in Dongshan to be opened. This is a good choice, a brilliant choice!"

The imperial tombs will be opened sooner or later, and which one to open first will become a serious topic of discussion.

In fact, Feng Xiangyu and others have discussed this kind of thing quite a bit these days.

However, Feng Xiangyu and the others did not expect that before the agreement was even reached, Zhang Xuezhou had already opened an imperial tomb.

This made him realize somewhat belatedly that the opinions of the old guard and their descendants on the Dongshan Imperial Mausoleum were extremely important, but Zhang Xuezhou was an independent person who could almost control their entire plan by himself.

This made Feng Xiangyu extremely anxious, but seeing that Zhang Xuezhou adhered to the rules, his anxiety subsided.

Feng Xiangyu even thought that Zhang Xuezhou to open the imperial tomb was a good one, as it avoided their dilemma of choice and eliminated the need for endless discussions.

"The most capable emperor in Luofu's history must have been Emperor Luo Wu," Feng Xiangyu said. "He loved to recognize and value heroes. Although the territory during his reign was not vast, it was the era when the people of Luofu began to hold their heads high, and it made Luofu stronger and stronger ever since!"

"I think the most capable fighter should be... Luo Mo... Emperor Luo Li," Feng Ziqiang murmured, then quickly corrected himself.

"His Luo Zhong was certainly formidable," Feng Xiangyu muttered under his breath, "But unfortunately, the circumstances surrounding His Luo Zhong were somewhat unfavorable, and no historians agree with that!"

"I heard from Mr. Feng that Emperor Luowu possessed something called the Boundless Jade Disc, and I'm very interested in it!"

Zhang Xuezhou interrupted the father and son's murmured words and also expressed his own meaning.

Zhang Xuezhou originally only wanted to see the Boundless Jade Wall, to identify whether it belonged to the Soul Jade or the Spirit Jade, and to find out why the tomb of Emperor Luowu was suitable for building a feng shui formation.

He was more focused on figuring out the situation and exploring the potential connection between it and the fortunes of Dongshan.

But Zhang Xuezhou didn't expect to find a heavy array-like object inside the imperial coffin.

The Boundless Jade Disc can undoubtedly serve as a crucial artifact for the eye of the formation.

The traces of Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon reflected in the Boundless Jade Wall further piqued Zhang Xuezhou's interest.

Zhang Xuezhou had clashed with the Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon twice, but he had only seen them a handful of times in the past ten years. Zhang Xuezhou never expected that there would be an object that could reveal traces of the Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon.

This made him extremely interested in the Boundless Jade Wall, feeling that once he obtained this artifact, he could carefully observe the Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon, which might have immeasurable benefits for him.

Before Feng Xiangyu and the others could speak, Zhang Xuezhou directly stated his request.

"It's just an antique. If Director Zhang wants to keep it, he can take it. Just mark it when you want," Feng Xiangyu assured him quickly.

Zhang Xuezhou's request was very direct, but Feng Xiangyu liked people who spoke up directly; it was much better than people who secretly sent money home behind people's backs.

Moreover, there are many burial objects in the imperial tombs. There is nothing wrong with a single item; it will just sit there regardless of who keeps it.

If Zhang Xuezhou examines the item carefully and loses interest, it might be possible to reclaim it and place it back in the museum.

After thinking it through, he quickly provided the guarantee and also requested that a mark be made, which Zhang Xuezhou readily agreed to.

"I'm just taking a look when I feel like it. If I'm not interested, you can just put it in a museum," Zhang Xuezhou said. "Personally, I have no interest in cultural relics!"

"That's right," Feng Xiangyu nodded repeatedly, "With our modern capabilities, creating some ancient artifacts is no problem at all. Even the most exquisitely crafted objects from hundreds of years ago are nothing special today. I estimate that this Boundless Jade Disc is just a legendary masterpiece, but in reality, it's nothing special!"

"Um!"

"But I've heard that the Wuliang Jade Wall may have some radiation or heavy metals, so Director Zhang should be extra careful when touching it," Feng Xiangyu cautioned.

"Thank you for the reminder, Mr. Feng!"

Zhang Xuezhou nodded, indicating that he would handle the Boundless Jade Wall with caution.

"The Qin Household used to be in charge of constructing imperial mausoleums. Should we ask Qin Household to come and clear the way?" Feng Ziqiang interjected.

"Even if a five-hundred-year-old imperial tomb has many structures, it will have decayed by now. Apart from falling rocks and sinkholes, there are virtually no other risks," Feng Xiangyu said. "The risks of the Luowu Emperor's Tomb are not too high. It's enough for the historians of Jin to go and explore the tomb!"

Feng Xiangyu pursed his lips, clearly unwilling to get involved with the Aristocratic Clan clans again, lest they have to borrow things from here and there, and all the valuable items in Emperor Luowu's tomb be taken away.

He was clearly happy to see Zhang Xuezhou go as soon as possible.

After a brief greeting, a middle-aged man with two small braids in his hair stepped out from behind him.

He patted his leather armor, pulled down the mask covering his face, took out a powerful flashlight, and carefully stepped forward, crouching down to crawl under the bluestone pillar.

"This is Jin Shixue. He's an expert in antiquities and possesses the strength of Fifth Sequence expert, enough to avoid most risks. We just need to follow behind him!"

Feng Xiangyu pointed to the middle-aged man who was entering the Luo Wu Emperor's Mausoleum, then put on a breathing mask and approached the bluestone pillar with a solemn expression.

With the top experts from the old and young clans scouting ahead, Feng Xiangyu felt the risks were manageable, so he even walked in front, closely following behind Jin Shixue, proceeding cautiously and bowing as they entered the tomb.
