Chu Yi had never liked to be disturbed. The bodyguards and secret guards in the manor were far away, so Su Yao could successfully leave the study.

In the secret passage, Chu Yi placed the wooden tokens with complicated inscriptions on the coffin.

Beside the coffin stood a gray-haired old man.

“Mr. Lin, can this person really be revived?” Although from the moment he became the successor of the Chu family, he was already related to the corpse lying in front of him,

However, after so many years, they had used all sorts of methods but could not revive the person in front of them.

He had died for more than a thousand years. What was revival? A mummy?

The old man called Mr. Lin was the military advisor who had been following the Chu family. He touched his white beard and shook his head. “I don’t know either.”

To be precise, no one knew the authenticity of that prophecy.

“Did you discover anything from the records on those bamboo slips?”

“Yes.” Old Master Lin handed the things copied from the bamboo slip to Chu Yi. “We studied the records on those cultural relics and realized that one person’s name was hidden among many major events that happened at that time.”

Whether it was restoring the country, resisting the enemy, or various sacrificial celebrations, it could be seen from the murals that there was someone with a higher status than Emperor Xia Yuan.

However, in the history books, this person’s name had been erased.

Chu Yi took it and looked at it. His expression gradually became strange. “Did you deduce this dynasty’s history from the cultural relics?”

“Yes.” The old man nodded. “It’s strange. There’s clearly someone who has a huge impact on the entire dynasty, but the identity has been hidden.”

Looking at the various historical events on the document, the corners of Chu Yi’s lips curled up slightly. “Mr. Lin, do you usually like to watch movies?”

“No.” Old Master Lin did not know why Chu Yi suddenly asked this.

He was a more old-fashioned person to begin with and did not have much ability to accept many new things in the modern world. He rarely watched television dramas and movies.

“Then I suggest that Old Master Lin watch more movies, especially Xia Wanyuan’s,” Chu Yi suddenly said inexplicably.

Old Master Lin frowned. “Young Master, what do you mean?”

Chu Yi closed the document in his hand. “Come and talk to me after you watched Xia Wanyuan’s movie.”

With that, Chu Yi turned and left.

Looking at Chu Yi’s back, Old Master Lin was filled with confusion. He could not understand why Chu Yi had suddenly mentioned Xia Wanyuan. Who was Xia Wanyuan?

Chu Yi left the secret passage and lowered the mechanism again. The entire wall slowly closed. He walked to a chair and sat down. He thought quietly for a while before calling the butler in.

“Young Master, what’s the matter?”

“Let Su Yao pack up and go to China with me.”

“Didn’t you say yesterday that you weren’t going to Beijing?” As a superpower in Continent F, China naturally sent Chu Yi an invitation, but Chu Yi rejected it.

“I’ve changed my mind now.” Chu Yi tapped his finger on the table. “Prepare to set off in two hours.”

“Yes.”

In Beijing, almost all the departments were mobilized for the international exchange.

It was the busiest time in Beijing and the most secure time in Beijing.

However, under such circumstances, Jiang Kui was restless.

“CEO Jiang, are you sure you want to do it now?? The timing hasn’t been good recently. The exchange is imminent, and security is very strict everywhere.”

A hint of ruthlessness flashed across Jiang Kui’s eyes. “Now.”

At other times, Xia Wanyuan would be surrounded by all sorts of secret guards. It was because the security in Beijing was strict now that the other forces around her had relaxed.

It looked like the most tightly guarded time was often the easiest time to find an opportunity.

“Okay, but…” Everyone was still nervous.

In the past, it had always been small fights. This time, they were really going to touch Jun Shiling’s Achilles heel. If they did not succeed, they would die for it. Everyone had an indescribable fear in their hearts.

“What are you afraid of? I’m in front.” Looking at everyone’s expressions, Jiang Kui roared angrily, “Do as I say. This time, I want Jun Shiling to suffer so much that he wants to die!”
