Tomb Raider: Call Me Dragon Vein Cleaner

Chapter 357: A single move affects the whole body

As Wu Xie threw this punch, countless points of light filled the air around him.

After an unknown amount of time, the light gradually faded, leaving only darkness around them.

Although Wu Xie was in the darkness, he felt an unprecedented sense of ease, as if a hidden shackle had been removed.

He continued forward in the darkness, and before he knew it, a beam of light illuminated the entire darkness ahead.

"Move forward and stand in the light."

The sound of him smashing the mirror came again. This time, Wu Xie did not hesitate and immediately went to the lamp post that resembled a stage light.

The moment he stepped into the lamppost, Cheng Feng outside also withdrew his finger.

"That's enough. Iron-Faced Man's personality has been shattered, but even a wild goose leaves a trace. Iron-Faced Man's will will still have some influence on Wu Xie."

But regarding the memory, it is certain that it has been completely lost.

Cheng Feng flicked his fingers, sending the cold sweat from Wu Xie's forehead back to his own.

Zhang Qiling approached Wu Xie and nodded when he saw that Wu Xie's expression was peaceful and his face was no longer ferocious.

"I'll take him back right away."

Once Cheng Feng nodded, Zhang Qiling grabbed Wu Xie by the back of the neck and carried him out of the study.

Once downstairs, Ah Xiang got up and saw Zhang Qiling off from Cheng Feng's house.

Cheng Feng was also pulled by Huo Ling to sit on the sofa.

"What exactly is going on, sir?"

Cheng Feng recounted how Wu Laogou had given Wu Xie a pill, turning him into a Wu family medicine man.

The women were quite amazed by Tie Miansheng's methods.

"This Iron-Faced Scholar is definitely not some nobody. He wears an iron mask to hide his true identity."

Yang Xueli guessed.

Cheng Feng remained noncommittal. No matter how astonishing the Iron-Faced Man's true identity was, he was now dead at his hands.

There's no point in investigating his identity anymore.

"Wu Xie is such a pitiful child. I've realized that people who dig up graves really do bring misfortune to their descendants."

The direct descendants of these nine families were not considered to have good fates.

Chen Wenjin recalled her experiences in the archaeological team. If it weren't for Cheng Feng, she and Huo Ling would probably have ended up worse off than Wu Xie.

Cheng Feng nodded in agreement, deeply agreeing.

Look at the descendants of the Nine Gates of the same generation as Wu Xie. Xie Yuchen's elders either died or disappeared when he was eight years old, leaving him, a child, to shoulder the heavy burden of the family.

Moreover, even before he was born, he was trained to handle the key moments of the final event.

Huo Xiuxiu was no less remarkable; she was innocent and carefree for the first twenty years, but the death of Huo Xiangu marked a turning point.

With no one left to rely on in the Huo family, this young lady had no choice but to change herself, growing up amidst pain and helplessness.

The other schools were not as good as the Wu, Xie, and Huo families, and their lineage simply ended.

This shows that tomb raiders are not blessed.

"We have no descendants, so any trouble or misfortune is none of our business."

Huo Ling leaned against Cheng Feng and said nonchalantly.

The three women had talked about having children before, but as their bodies increasingly displayed signs of longevity,

Their views on having children are gradually changing.

Unlike ordinary women, they don't have any obsession with procreation.

The next day,

Wu Sansheng and Wu Xie began sightseeing in Golmud. Neither of them mentioned that they had come to collect something.

Just treat it as a trip.

On the way to the salt lake, Wu Xie mentioned the dream he had last night.

It was said that a mirror was broken to save Wu Sansheng's life, and Wu Sansheng didn't say anything.

Despite his worries, he was also relieved, as his support for Zhang Qiling in thwarting Wu Laogou's scheme had not been in vain.

On Cheng Feng's side, the Unloading Ridge began to operate like a giant machine, and information about the Second Mausoleum of the World began to be compiled and sent to Golmud.

To do a good job, one must first have the right tools. Although this time it was about escorting lamas, Wu Sansheng had intelligence about the second-best mausoleum in the world.

But Cheng Feng didn't want to be controlled by others in this regard.

Three days later, Wu Sansheng and Wu Xie boarded the train home, accompanied by Hei Xiazi.

He was responsible for representing Cheng Feng in the preliminary preparations before the operation.

After three days of gathering information, Cheng Feng had acquired a considerable amount of data about the Second Mausoleum in the World.

At home, Chen Wenjin opened a file folder and took out more than a dozen documents.

"I've roughly reviewed these materials. The Second Great Tomb in the World has a long-standing reputation in the tomb raiding world."

There are rumors that this mausoleum was built by Yang Lianzhenjia for Genghis Khan.

However, this can be ruled out.

Indeed, Genghis Khan's incorruptible bones are still burning in the boundless flames of karma.

"Therefore, the occupant of the Second Great Mausoleum in the World must be Kublai Khan, the founding emperor of the Yuan Dynasty."

Although Genghis Khan conquered half the globe and swept across Europe, it was Kublai Khan who truly destroyed the Song Dynasty and unified China.

Yang Lianzhenjia must have built this second-best mausoleum in the world under his orders.

Sitting on the other side, Yang Xueli picked up a few documents to help her look them up.

"Almost all the information indicates that the Second Mausoleum of the World is a deadly place. Many people have found it, but no one has come out alive."

Chen Wenjin looked worried. "This time, several forces are acting together. We not only need to guard against the dangers in the tomb, but also be careful not to be tricked by these people."

While Ah Xiang was out, Cheng Feng pulled the two women onto his lap.

"I think you're all overthinking things. They're the ones who should be worried. Anyone who dares to have any wicked thoughts, I'll bury them in the second-best mausoleum in the world."

Following Wu Sansheng's actions, major forces interested in immortality began to take action.

Among them was Qiu Dekao and his entourage. At Dalian Airport, a group of foreigners in suits escorted an elderly man wearing a gentleman's hat off a private plane.

Originally, Jude Kao knew nothing about the Second Mausoleum of the World.

Thanks to his good friend Wu Sansheng, who told him that the elixir of immortality was hidden in the Second Mausoleum in the World.

The cautious Jude Kao certainly wouldn't simply believe Wu Sansheng's words.

After investigation, Qiu Dekao confirmed that there was a divine object in the Second Mausoleum of the World called Wan Shi Liu Xia, which could grant immortality by consuming it.

With a clear opportunity for immortality, Jude Kao abandoned some of his plans and personally led his men back to the place where he had once preached.

Like Jude Kao, the Xie family also activated forces that had been hidden for many years.

This force has always been secretly controlled by Xie Lianhuan, and this operation is no small matter.

Especially with Cheng Feng, a recognized monster, involved, it's very likely that the final event Qi Tiezui mentioned can be resolved in one go.

The Xie family, who have dedicated generations to this matter, have truly utilized their resources.

This series of major moves has also attracted the attention of some people, such as the Zhang family overseas, remnants of the Wang family, and members of the Nine Gates...

"Honey, my mom said she's bringing Xiuxiu to Golmud in a couple of days."

At Cheng Feng's home, Huo Ling hung up the phone and turned to Cheng Feng, saying...

Chen Wenjin, standing beside him, said helplessly:

"It seems that there may be far more than three companies involved in this matter."
