Jin's historical studies are in the Fifth Sequence, a tier that was not particularly prominent among the previous Alliance States and could only serve as the middle tier.

However, even among the Alliance States today, Kim's historical studies are considered quite advanced.

Just by gazing at the Wuliang Jade Disc that Zhang Xuezhou had taken out, Jin Dynasty history studies were almost completely abandoned in a short period of time.

Zhang Xuezhou glanced back and sensed that the Boundless Jade Wall he had acquired was somewhat strange.

This made him suspicious, and he felt that the number of people who could view the Boundless Jade Wall should be limited.

"Their strength must be at least similar to mine... It seems only the professor's ability is roughly the same as mine, but even that's not An Ran safe!"

He covered the Boundless Jade Wall with his clothes, something Zhang Xuezhou and others often did when dealing with unknown situations; concealing the light could indeed avoid a lot of trouble.

"Director Zhang, Jin Shixue was hit by the stone figure and is likely contaminated with something unclean. He's having health problems now. Can we evacuate first?"

Before Zhang Xuezhou could speak, Feng Ziqiang, who was supporting Jin Shixue, had already shouted out as Feng Xiangyu had instructed.

The group couldn't just come and go as they pleased in the Luowu Emperor's Mausoleum; only Zhang Xuezhou could lead the way safely out.

Since it was the first time anyone had entered the tomb, they couldn't remember the locations of the mechanisms Zhang Xuezhou had mentioned, and it was very easy for them to get lost in the tomb passages.

It was obviously extremely disappointing to have to leave the mausoleum so soon after entering the palace. Feng Xiangyu didn't dare to speak carelessly, so he had to use his son as a mouthpiece, so that if Zhang Xuezhou objected, he could persuade him indirectly.

"Withdraw!"

To Feng Xiangyu and the others' surprise, Zhang Xuezhou agreed far too quickly.

Some of them hadn't even jumped into the area where the palace was located before they faced having to turn back.

"Are they really withdrawing?"

Zhu Youjia couldn't help but ask in a low voice.

"You can go to the mausoleum early or late, but illness can't be delayed!"

Zhang Xuezhou nodded, and the bright light from his flashlight quickly illuminated the path leading out of the mausoleum.

He jumped down first and walked at the forefront, also reminding people of the relevant locations to prevent them from stepping on the traps.

After some bumping and jostling, it took the group, carrying Jin Shixue's knowledge, forty-five minutes to finally exit the tomb.

"Jin Shixue's pupils were dilated, as if he had experienced fright. What did he see?"

Bathed in sunlight once more, everyone quickly checked themselves before turning their attention to Kim Sege.

Feng Ziqiang looked at Jin Shixue, who was curled up, and then pried open Jin Shixue's eyelids to take a look, which made him somewhat incredulous.

Within their group, Feng Ziqiang believed that Jin Shixue was the most capable, but unexpectedly, the strongest among them suffered the most.

"The imperial authority of Luofu cannot be defiled. He must have violated the divine authority by forcibly breaking through the mechanisms at the entrance to the tomb, and thus was punished by the ancestors," Feng Xiangyu murmured.

"Everyone, let's get him to the hospital," Zhang Xuezhou suggested. "We can take the Zhu family's flying vehicle back to Western Capital City quickly. I have connections at the Jishi Medical Center in the Academy District; I can arrange the fastest medical care for Jin Shixue!"

Zhang Xuezhou also found it difficult to observe carefully inside the imperial tomb. After a brief re-examination outside the tomb and with the rough judgment of others, Zhang Xuezhou was well aware that Jin dynasty historiography had encountered similar methods of psychological intimidation and suppression.

Having obtained the Boundless Jade Disc, Zhang Xuezhou had no desire to linger at the Eastern Mountain Imperial Mausoleum.

This even disrupted his plans to enter the Luo Yan Emperor's Mausoleum to advance his cultivation of magic.

He felt he could conduct the research independently at this point, and asked Ren Yisheng to take care of him to prevent any accidents.

After making arrangements, Zhang Xuezhou even borrowed the Zhu family's flying vehicle.

"I've already applied for a flying vehicle. If I ever need to get sick and urgently need help, I can use it to handle the emergency!"

First, there was the swift abandonment of the exploration of Emperor Luo Wu's tomb, and then there was the arrangement for Jin Shixue to provide medical care. Zhang Xuezhou did not treat Feng Xiangyu and the others as outsiders, which led to Feng Xiangyu and the others frequently glancing at each other after entering the aircraft.

It's difficult to judge a person based on deliberate arrangements, but their character can be fully revealed when faced with unexpected choices.

Most importantly, Zhang Xuezhou was too decisive; he didn't hesitate at all.

This greatly increased Feng Xiangyu and the others' goodwill towards Zhang Xuezhou, who felt that Zhang Xuezhou, the director of the Dongshan Imperial Mausoleum, was capable of doing his job properly and did not meddle in bad things. He also treated them with great respect.

Compared to Zhu Haishan, a stubborn old scoundrel, Zhang Xuezhou was undoubtedly different in many ways.

"Director Zhang, you shouldn't cause trouble while you're in office. After I die, you should all live peacefully and not interfere anymore!"

Feng Xiangyu murmured something indistinctly.

Changkong Luo and the others have moved into the Twilight Mansion, and Feng Xiangyu and the others have also grown old.

Like someone approaching the twilight of their life, Feng Xiangyu looked at Zhang Xuezhou, who was completely different from Zhu Haishan, and felt that the grudges and grievances of the older generation ultimately needed to be put aside so that the younger generation could accept this new Alliance States.

The younger generation doesn't need to restore a dynasty, nor does it need to yearn for Luofu. They just need to live a good life and join this new era that is changing the world.

Western Capital City is not only home to outstanding young people like Zhang Xuezhou, but also to members of the provincial committees. Everything felt unfamiliar to Feng Western Capital City, yet he felt he had to accept it.

If it weren't for her advanced age, Feng Xiangyu would even feel that she needs to change her attitude to embrace the new era.

He whispered instructions to Feng Ziqiang and the others, and then signaled to Feng Ziqiang to make arrangements as much as possible so as not to embarrass Zhang Xuezhou, the person in charge of Dongshan.

"Father, don't worry!"

Feng Ziqiang whispered.

The Western Capital City Sequence Committee has been in constant turmoil, and the old guard and descendants are not united as a single entity.

The times have shrunk their group, and more and more people have been assimilated.

Today, these people are no longer able to hold up the ship alone, their power having degenerated from the Anti -Sequence Committee to the point where they can only cause sporadic disruptions and small-scale riots in the Alliance States.

Feng Xiangyu now wants to minimize this destructiveness while continuously integrating into the Alliance States.

Ultimately, these remnants of the old regime were not some Luofu Imperial Family family attempting to restore the dynasty. They simply found it difficult to accept the collapse of the unified Luofu dynasty. Furthermore, their prestige, status, and wealth allowed them to attract a group of people dissatisfied with society.

Some people genuinely want to follow them through thick and thin, but most are just slackers.

Zhang Xuezhou and others are right; whether someone is a genuine remnant of the old regime can be determined by how much money they spend.

Feng Xiangyu and Feng Ziqiang spoke in hushed tones, discussing how they, as outdated individuals, should adapt to this ever-changing new era.

"We've arrived at the helipad on the roof of the Jishi Medical Center in the Academy District. The hospital has already arranged for someone to pick us up. If we encounter any difficult or complex cases, we can even invite renowned doctors from Western Capital City!"

Only when the roar of the aircraft rapidly subsided did Feng Xiangyu remove the earmuffs he used to communicate with others.

The sound of Zhang Xuezhou making arrangements brought Feng Xiangyu great comfort. He hardly needed to do anything; Zhang Xuezhou had already taken care of everything.

Seeing the medical team rushing over, Feng Xiangyu was about to thank Zhang Xuezhou when Zhang Xuezhou waved to him.

"To avoid any accidents, let's all get a checkup!"

Having arranged for Jin Shixue, Zhang Xuezhou also made arrangements for everyone else, thus allowing himself to distance himself from the group.

After quickly finishing his business, he carried the Boundless Jade Disc and used the specially password-protected elevator to reach Ren Yisheng's residential area.

"So this is the misalignment between my body and soul, which is why my body has always struggled to function normally!"

After Zhang Xuezhou moved into Ren Yisheng's residence, the two found a secret room.

With a simple glance, Ren Yisheng felt that his face and body were reflected on the boundless jade wall, yet a sense of disharmony was subtly present.

It took him several observations to discern this disharmony.
