Buzz——

The buzzing sound echoed again.

Right after.

The ground vibrated once more, and this time the tremors were even stronger than before.

Everyone’s bodies swayed back and forth.

"No way... it’s getting worse."

Gong Fei steadied himself, his face a bit grim, looking at the Golden Kingfisher that still stared at Chen Lusi but was reluctant to land on the Jade Seal: "This isn’t a solution."

"Then let’s head to the First Emperor’s Mausoleum."

Chen Lusi noticed Si Yujie’s resolute expression, hesitated for a moment, then stopped insisting, and looked at Gong Fei. "If you can say such audacious things... it proves there must be answers inside the First Emperor’s Mausoleum."

...

Everyone got back into the car.

And that Golden Kingfisher had been staring at Chen Lusi from the beginning to the end.

Even though Gong Fei called it to another car.

Chen Lusi could still vaguely feel the bird’s gaze.

Until the car started, the feeling of being watched persisted.

"Chen Lusi."

Si Yujie held the Heirloom Seal of the Realm, placed it on her leg, then turned her head towards Chen Lusi’s profile and called to him.

Chen Lusi withdrew his gaze from the Kingfisher’s direction and turned back: "Hmm?"

"That’s your Authority Ability, right?"

Everyone in the car knew some of the inside story, so Si Yujie asked directly: "Like that little girl in the white dress..."

Chen Lusi nodded: "Yes."

Si Yujie slightly tightened her grip on the Jade Seal and continued: "Then what I saw... is it true too? The filth on you..."

"..."

Chen Lusi was silent for a moment, shook his head: "Honestly, I don’t know, I’m here this time to find answers... but I’ve never intended to hurt you, whatever you saw, remember this, I won’t be swayed by anything."

"I never doubted that, or I wouldn’t hold you."

Si Yujie shook her head, then hesitated: "But, going to the First Emperor’s Mausoleum in your condition..."

Chen Lusi frowned slightly, interrupting: "Then should I let you go alone?"

"..."

Si Yujie saw the expression on Chen Lusi’s face, was slightly startled, and understood.

She was silent for a moment, then reached out and gently pinched Chen Lusi’s face, laughing softly: "You really are as reliable as always."

"..."

Chen Lusi turned his head to avoid her, somewhat helplessly.

Si Yujie didn’t mind, she looked at Chen Lusi’s profile again, watched for a while until he turned back in confusion, then shifted her gaze, looking down at the Heirloom Seal of the Realm resting on her shapely long legs.

Then, she thought of the recent embrace, couldn’t help but smile again.

Exceptionally charming.

Nearly half an hour later.

The group finally arrived at the North Slope of Lishan, 5 kilometers east of Lintong District.

Speaking of the First Emperor’s Mausoleum.

Most people immediately think of the Terracotta Warriors.

But in fact, the Terracotta Warriors currently displayed are just three burial pits.

These over 6,000 Terracotta Warriors.

Are just the tip of the iceberg.

Strictly speaking, they are not the First Emperor’s Mausoleum; it’s nearly two kilometers away from the actual resting place of Emperor Qin Shi Huang.

So understandably, the scale of the tomb of the country’s first Emperor is certainly astonishing.

After all, it utilized 720,000 laborers over 38 years to build, and the most core area... the Underground Palace of the First Emperor’s Mausoleum, has never been excavated.

Chen Lusi and the group arrived at Lintong District and did not head straight to the Underground Palace but stopped near the Terracotta Warriors Museum.

And right after getting out of the car.

Tang Language, Xia Panqiu, and Wu You, who had been notified and were waiting, immediately came up to greet them.

"Did you just ignore me!?"

Tang Language, upon seeing Si Yujie, immediately glared at her angrily.

Si Yujie glanced at her, completely ignoring her, quickly lowered her head, and continued staring at the Jade Seal in her hand.

Even though they arrived at the burial pits.

The Jade Seal still didn’t show any reaction.

Clearly, such a huge anomaly had just occurred near the Apang Palace ruins...

Si Yujie furrowed her delicate brows, somewhat puzzled, looking towards Gong Fei who had just gotten out of the car, wanting to ask him.

Beside her.

Chen Lusi noticed her gaze and asked: "What’s up?"

Si Yujie heard this and turned around, about to speak.

Buzz——

The third buzzing sound rang out.

The ground shook again.

And this time... it was more exaggerated than the previous two!
