Rest Assured, My Liu Clan Still Has Foundations to Rely On

Brush.

Liu Xun immediately contacted Liu Duanyuan:

"This Lu Changzhi is indeed unusable."

"Oh?"

Liu Duanyuan looked at it:

But what happened next?

Liu Xun didn't say much, but instead sent a message to Liu Duanyuan containing the information about the Emperor's Tomb and the scene of his conversation with the two of them.

"An imperial tomb?!"

Soon, Liu Duanyuan's expression changed, becoming serious.

A short while later, his gaze returned to Liu Xun, and he said:

"You mean you suspect Lu Changzhi has already obtained this information?"

"He definitely has it," Liu Xun said confidently.

"In the Emperor Dao, that palm strike was absolutely capable of killing or even severely injuring Lin Xie, but he stopped at the crucial moment."

Why would he do this if there's no reason?

Liu Xun paused, looking at Liu Duanyuan:

"And why was he in such a hurry to leave as soon as he got back? Was it really just because he was tired?"

"Does the Withering and Flourishing Sect really offer a better response than my Liu Clan?"

Liu Duanyuan remained silent.

He couldn't deny what Liu Xun said, nor did he intend to.

The news of an imperial tomb is incredibly significant.

This applies regardless of whether it's true or false.

Although the Liu Clan is strong in the Misty Clear Realm, it is only because they have a large number of people at the higher realms.

But no one can enter the Emperor Realm.

Ancient methods are unusable, and new methods have never existed. Basically, one reaches a certain level, then stagnates, consumes the remaining lifespan, and slowly awaits death.

However, if the Emperor's Tomb is genuine, it will undoubtedly provide them with some degree of assistance.

In other words...

If used properly, it could not only help the Liu Clan take their strength to a new level, but even achieve a great leap forward!

Such an important matter.

Lu Changzhi, however, did not mention it at all.

We should just let them study the stone chair without offering any thanks, since they did contribute something and it's just an object that can be studied later.

But they've remained completely silent about this news...

For a moment, Liu Duanyuan felt a deep sense of betrayal.

"He did go too far in this matter," Liu Duanyuan nodded.

Liu Xun nodded:

"Then what should we do with him?"

Even if this news is false, it already reveals a lot.

This saying, "Seeing big things in small things," is not just a casual remark.

The reason why I am so certain that Lu Changzhi already knew is actually quite simple.

Everyone probably knows how valuable news about an imperial tomb is.

But Lin Xie handed it over decisively.

There are only two possibilities: either Lin Xie has something even more important, and the Emperor's Tomb, though important, can still be abandoned.

Either it has already been handed over, or it's difficult the first time, but much easier afterward.

The latter best explains Lu Changzhi's sudden withdrawal from the Emperor Dao.

"How to deal with him is not urgent."

Liu Duanyuan said:

"The most important thing right now is to confirm the veracity of this news."

"If it's fake, we'll be happy for nothing; if it's real, we won't need it anymore."

"You just wait."

After saying that, Liu Duanyuan disappeared.

This journey took more than an hour.

Upon seeing Liu Duanyuan finally return, Liu Xun hurriedly inquired:

"How?"

"These pieces of information, upon closer examination, seem more like the recollections of someone who experienced them firsthand; otherwise, it would be difficult to remember them in such detail. However, we cannot rule out the possibility that this was indeed the tomb owner's modus operandi."

"If it's the former, the tomb has probably already been discovered by someone else, and the spoils will be limited."

"But we must go to this imperial tomb no matter what."

"But,"

Liu Duanyuan looked at Liu Xun and said, "Spread this news; the more people who know, the better."

Upon hearing this, Liu Xun was slightly taken aback and looked at Liu Duanyuan.

"Are you confident in doing this?"

The location of that emperor's tomb is not even in the Misty Clear Realm. The more people know about it, the greater the competition will be.

It's important to understand that the powerful figures in the Misty Clear Realm are far more numerous than those who appear on the surface.

The news of the Emperor's Tomb is bound to draw out countless reclusive powerhouses.

But there is also an advantage.

If you don't fight or seize, how can you expend resources?

How can you become stronger if others don't consume you?

Ultimately, whether it's beneficial or detrimental depends on one's strength.

Liu Duanyuan smiled and said:

"Don't worry, my Liu Clan still has these cultural heritages."

"As long as the items from this imperial tomb are in the hands of people from the Misty Clear Realm, they're already in our possession; it's only a matter of time."

The Liu Clan has been biding its time for so many years, but now that something truly capable of influencing the future has emerged, it is time to show its brilliance!

"Good."

Liu Xun nodded:

"I'll have someone arrange it right away."

"There's one more thing," Liu Duanyuan said.

"Let Tianming go too."

"If there truly is a lineage, we will spare no effort to ensure he obtains it."

"But remember to tell him about Lu Changzhi; he must not show himself easily before it is confirmed that there is truly a lineage."

Upon hearing this, Liu Xun was taken aback:

"This boy is disloyal? We still want to send him?"

"He has to go," Liu Duanyuan said.

"This move is too ambitious and may bring some disaster; he will be needed to ward off the calamity."

After a pause, Liu Duanyuan reminded him:

"Remember to pay attention to your demeanor and reaction then. This kid is definitely not naive; don't let him notice you."

Having heard this, Liu Xun nodded.

"Rest assured, since I am shielding Heaven from Tianming, I will not be dissatisfied with it."

Hidden Origin Peak.

Lu Changzhi got up from the stone chair and stretched thoroughly.

Are you satisfied?

The Artifact Spirit's voice rang in my ears.

Lu Changzhi smiled slightly and raised his hand to give a thumbs up:

Five-star review.

This Emperor Conferment Chair is clearly not only skilled in psychological manipulation, but also in physical spas.

"Shall we meet again?"

The stone chair immediately responded.

Such an easily satisfied master makes serving him truly feel worthwhile!

"I'll come back later."

Lu Changzhi hesitated for a moment, glanced outside, and said:

"Let's explain things first."

At that moment, Lu Changzhi had a thought and used telepathy to summon Gu Chen and the others.

"Master, what's wrong?"

Mu Fan glanced at the stone chair and said:

"Are they going to grant Hidden Origin Peak access to the Emperor Dao?"

Qin Li's gaze also fell on the stone chair.

"It's something else."

Lu Changzhi smiled, raised his hand and waved it, and all the information Lin Xie had given him appeared before everyone's eyes.

"Holy crap?"

Mu Fan's eyes widened:

"An imperial tomb?!"

After saying that, Mu Fan seemed to have thought of something and immediately turned to look at Zhong Ming:

"Sure enough, he's almost panting with excitement."

Gu Chen's face was full of disbelief. He checked again to make sure that what he was looking at was indeed the Emperor's Tomb.

We just finished with "The Emperor Dao," and now we have "The Tomb of the Emperor"!

Qin Li's eyes held four parts surprise, four parts uncertainty, and two parts doubt.

She suspected that this imperial tomb might be related to Lin Xie.

Or to be more precise, it concerns Lin Xie's past life.

"Is Master sending us to explore the Emperor's Tomb?"

Mu Fan asked.

Lu Changzhi nodded:

"The timing is just right, not too early or too late. You should prepare well; it will be a good experience for you."

Mu Fan glanced at the information again:

"We're only at the Saint Realm yet, and we're already venturing into Emperor's Tomb? That's a bit like pulling up seedlings before they're ready..."

As they were talking, Mu Fan's pupils flickered, and a smile immediately appeared on his face:

"Ahem, it's true that fathering a child is healthier!"

The system that hadn't done anything when I went to the Emperor Dao suddenly started giving me new quests again just now!
