Chapter 1320: The Truth a Hundred Years Ago

Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios

Old Master Fu did not say anything else, but Lin Jing could feel that Old Master Fu’s memories of back then were deeply traumatized. Seeing his teachers and classmates die in front of him was a huge blow to the 18-year-old Old Master Fu.

Later on, Old Master Fu had also gone to Longqi Mountain to investigate the truth, but for all sorts of inexplicable reasons, he could not find any clues in the end.

“Madam, Old Master Fu finally instructed me not to disturb him in the future.”

“Mm, I understand.” After hanging up, Xia Wanyuan frowned slightly when she thought of Old Master Fu’s “alive”. A thousand-year-old ancient tomb. What was alive? Was it human or something else?

In the small courtyard of the Fu family, Old Master Fu quietly looked at the flowers and plants in front of him. His weathered face was filled with the sadness of memories.

He thought of his mentor’s last wish many years ago.

Actually, his mentor had long known that there was a huge risk in heading to Longqi Mountain, but he had no choice.

A new historical dynasty had a fatal attraction for an archaeological digger.

What Old Master Fu felt sad about now was that he had used his entire life but could not find the truth behind the ancient tomb. He did not know how to face his teacher, who had long passed away.

Since he had already obtained the information he wanted from Old Master Fu, Lin Jing bade farewell to Old Master Fu and prepared to leave.

However, just as he left the research institute, a new message entered.

“Special Assistant Lin, we found out that recently, two other groups of people have only investigated Longqi Mountain.”

“Source.”

“The Lin family and the Chu family.”

“Okay, I understand.” Lin Jing quickly reported the information to Jun Shiling.

At the same time, most of the secret guards lying in ambush around Longqi Mountain surged forward and captured everyone when those who were secretly gathering information appeared.

The secret guards searched these people and finally found a large number of cultural relics. Some could be seen that they had just been unearthed.

The secret guards cuffed these people and prepared to send them to the relevant institutions to deal with them. However, to everyone’s surprise,

In the blink of an eye, these people committed suicide by consuming poison.

When the news spread to Beijing, Jun Shiling was even more puzzled. What are the Chu family and the Lin family hiding?

Thinking of the battle between the Chu family and the Feng family a hundred years ago, Jun Shiling stood up and went straight to the courtyard.

In the courtyard, Old Master was sunbathing leisurely. Seeing Jun Shiling walk over, Old Master leaned over and looked behind Jun Shiling.

Old Master was clearly disappointed that he did not see Xiao Bao. “Why are you here? Where’s Xiao Bao?”

“He’s in school.” Jun Shiling walked over with a serious expression. “Grandpa, I came over because I have something to ask you.”

Old Master glanced at Jun Shiling’s expression and picked up his teacup to take a sip. “What’s wrong? Your expression is so ugly. Did something go wrong at work?”

“Grandpa, do you know why the Feng family and the Chu family collectively moved abroad back then?”

The moment Jun Shiling said this, Old Master’s hand that was holding the teacup clearly paused for a moment, but he almost instantly returned to normal. “A hundred years ago, I wasn’t even born at that time. How would I know?”

No matter how well Old Master Jun disguised himself, he could not escape Jun Shiling’s eyes. “Grandpa, I’m asking you very seriously. This matter is very important.”

Old Master Jun glanced at Jun Shiling. Sensing the seriousness in his eyes, Old Master Jun was puzzled. “What happened?”

Over the years, Jun Shiling had been able to hold his own and rarely had a situation that made him worry. This was the first time Jun Shiling had asked him such a serious question.

“Did the Feng family and the Chu family really move out of the country because of family conflicts?”

Old Master Jun put down his teacup and was silent for a while. In the end, he said, “No, there are some things I don’t know much about.”

The breeze gently blew across the courtyard, shaking the leaves of the tree.

Old Master Jun pointed at the seat in front of him. “Sit down and I’ll tell you slowly.”

A hundred years ago, the south was dominated by the Feng family and the Chu family. The two sides fought to obtain the greatest benefits.

Such a large family that had been passed down for hundreds of years basically had secrets that were not worth telling outsiders.

The Feng family and the Chu family’s ancestors were originally one, but later on, they were divided into two families.

In their family history, there was the same ancient prophecy.

Obtaining Emperor Yuan meant obtaining the world.

Legend had it that as long as one could find the tomb of the Emperor Yuan, they could obtain endless treasures and abilities that surpassed time and space.

This was only a legend. Initially, the two families did not take this matter to heart.

Until a hundred years ago, a worker accidentally dug out something during a construction on Longqi Mountain.
