Choose the Emperor Tomb: If It's Real, Take Everything We Can

Mystic Yang Realm, a place where people gather.

"I heard that a lot of people have suddenly flocked to the south recently. Could it be that something is about to be born? Have you heard about it?" One of them started the conversation and then looked at the others.

"I've heard about it. I've heard even more details than you have. Those people who went there are said to be from the Mystic Yang Realm, and it seems they came from the Misty Clear Realm further south," another Human Dao.

"The Misty Clear Realm?" One person raised an eyebrow. "That place is said to not even have a single Emperor Realm, yet they dare to come all the way here?"

"People die for wealth, birds die for food," another person laughed.

"Why would someone do something like this if there were no benefit to it?"

"But what are the benefits? Does anyone know?" one person asked, glancing around at those who had been drawn to the topic.

Upon hearing this, the group fell silent, exchanging bewildered glances.

The surrounding crowd, also intrigued, looked left and right, waiting for someone to provide an answer.

At this moment.

A man not far away suddenly stepped forward and said:

"Stop thinking about it, it's an imperial tomb."

"What?!"

Upon hearing this, not only the few people discussing the matter, but also everyone around who heard the voice turned to look and stared at the speaker.

"Really?" some people asked, full of doubt.

How did you know?

"Believe it or not, it's up to you." The man shook his head, looking completely indifferent.

"It's just answering one question."

After saying that, he got up and left.

The remaining people quickly began to discuss it.

"News about an imperial tomb isn't something you can just learn about casually, and even if you did, why would you tell others so easily? There's probably a trap involved."

"I have indeed heard some things. It seems that a lot of people are heading that way recently. I've been asking around but haven't found anything. Maybe it's true."

"That should be it. There are no Emperor Realm in the Misty Clear Realm, let alone Emperor Tomb. Their current actions can indeed be explained by mentioning an Emperor Tomb."

"..."

After a heated discussion, people reacted in various ways.

Some people were skeptical, some treated it as a rumor, and some even made plans and prepared to go. Reactions varied.

But then they saw that the person who had left earlier had returned to a short distance away at some point, but now with a disguise on his face. He looked at the group of people who had started the discussion and gave them a wink.

At that moment, one of the group said, "Whether it's true or false, the people of the Misty Clear Realm won't take a single thing from our Mystic Yang Realm," and led the others away.

A moment later, the two sides met.

"Next place, where to?"

"This city is too big, let's go somewhere else, otherwise the message will travel too slowly."

Mystic Yang Realm, Ye Clan.

"Clan leader, have you also heard about the news from the Heavenly Treasure Pavilion?" One person spoke, and several high-ranking members all turned their gaze to the man at the head of the table.

The man's gaze was deep; he nodded slightly and said slowly:

"It seems someone is planning to bring chaos into our Mystic Yang Realm."

"If the Heavenly Treasure Pavilion could confirm the candidates for the Human Emperor, why would they release this information? It must just be a rumor."

After saying that, the man shook his head.

There are many people who believe news without thinking.

While some may remain skeptical, a significant number will believe it's a deception disguised as truth, ultimately finding themselves no different from those who are easily swayed by biased opinions.

"Shall we sit back and watch the tigers fight?" someone suggested.

"No." The man shook his head:

"You have to choose one side."

"It's either friend or foe. With only this much information available, making a decision might be difficult," another person mused.

"Not difficult." The man waved his hand.

"The tomb of the elector—if it's genuine, take it all."

Rumors and potential are all false; only the benefits you actually receive are real!

In a short period of time, news of the Emperor's Tomb, along with the claim that a candidate for Human Emperor had been reborn, began to spread rapidly under the impetus of the Heavenly Treasure Pavilion.

All those who received the news reacted to varying degrees.

Regarding the selection of candidates for the Human Emperor, all the more powerful forces unanimously expressed their doubts.

However, they had made thorough plans regarding the matter of the emperor's tomb.

The logic from all parties is surprisingly consistent.

If it's all fake, now that we know the approximate time and location, sending some people there won't be much trouble.

If all of this is true, then the imperial tomb, which even so-called candidates for reborn Human Emperor would visit, is certainly worth the effort to acquire.

In an instant, all factions in the Mystic Yang Realm were mobilized.

The news is spreading far beyond the Mystic Yang Realm, reaching the areas Lin Xie had selected.

At the mountain peak, the young man slowly rose, a faint smile appearing on his face;

"It seems this time it's like finding a needle in a haystack, only to have it come to you effortlessly."

"A reborn individual, and a candidate for the Human Emperor at that—if this were a main character, taking some action against him would likely bring me a significant boost."

Having said that, the young man put away the jade token from the Heavenly Treasure Pavilion and called out:

"System, what do you think?"

As soon as the words fell, they echoed in the boy's mind:

"Too far to judge. Please maintain a suitable distance from the target."

Upon hearing this, the boy shook his head:

"Fine, I'll go myself."

"I hope this Liu Tianming of the Liu Clan is a shrewd and reliable person; otherwise, traveling this far would be a waste of my energy."

Misty Clear Realm.

Yue Clan.

"The recent news seems a bit off; it looks like we're not the only ones causing trouble for the Liu Clan."

A high-ranking member of the Yue Clan approached Yue Peng and recounted the events of the past two days.

"While the method of attracting curiosity through discussion still works, in many places, someone can answer as soon as you ask."

"From what they've said, this imperial tomb is also related to some candidate for Human Emperor, and there's also talk of a reborn person; it sounds far more astonishing than that."

Upon hearing this, Yue Peng's expression slightly hardened:

So, do they believe it or not?

"They are mostly waiting for the reaction from the top forces in the Mystic Yang Realm, and they are probably quite skeptical of this claim."

Yue Peng nodded, then a hint of helplessness appeared on his face:

"I don't know who's stirring things up, but doing so seems a bit overkill."

"The Liu Clan hasn't set off yet. If they knew, they would probably be even more cautious."

The Yue Clan leaders nodded and said at the same time:

"However, these rumors are currently circulating in the deeper parts of the Mystic Yang Realm. It will probably take some time for them to reach the vicinity of the Emperor's Tomb. As for whether it will be exactly the same time, we cannot be sure."

Yue Peng didn't speak, remained silent for a moment, and then said:

"To get the pot boiling, you need to add more firewood to the bottom."

"It seems I can't avoid getting involved after all, and I'll have to provoke the Liu Clan."
