Tang Zheng stared at this person, and the other party looked at him with interest.
Obviously, this person was not an ancient person, but a modern person. His modern outfit was even more fashionable than Tang Zheng's.
"Who are you?" Tang Zheng asked cautiously.
This person was definitely not an ordinary grave robber. Those grave robbers were not even worthy of carrying his shoes. Even Tang Zheng did not dare to underestimate the aura that was faintly emitted.
"Tang Zheng!" The other party did not answer, but instead called out Tang Zheng's name.
Tang Zheng and Professor Qi were both shocked. Tang Zheng was sure that he had never seen this person before. The other party left a deep impression on him. Even if he had only seen him once, he would never forget.
"You know me?"
The other party laughed, and his smile was even a bit evil. "Of course I know you. Your great name is like thunder to my ears. "
"We have never met."
"Yes, but I have seen your picture." The other party said bluntly. "I really did not expect to see you here. Allow me to introduce myself first, otherwise it would be rude."
The other party was polite, like a noble gentleman.
"This humble one is Jade-faced Flying Dragon." His voice was raised a few notches, and his head was raised high as he said proudly.
"Jade-faced Flying Dragon?"
Tang Zheng frowned. He had never heard of this person in the Jianghu. Where did this expert come from?
"I think you have never heard of me, but you will remember my name in the future." Jade-faced Flying Dragon said confidently.
"Why?"
"Because, I want to kill — — you!" Jade-faced Flying Dragon deliberately dragged out the word "kill", and a murderous aura seemed to burst out from this word.
Tang Zheng's body tensed up. The other party had said that he wanted to kill him. There were only two possibilities.
First, he was an idiot, and only then would he be so arrogant.
Second, he was a true expert, and had this confidence.
Obviously, the other party did not belong to the first category. Then … he was definitely an expert, and an extraordinary one at that. He was an expert that Tang Zheng could not see through.
The other party was only in his thirties, yet he had this kind of cultivation. He was definitely an outstanding person. Why was there no news of such a fierce person in the Jianghu?
Seeing that Tang Zheng didn't move, Fair-faced Flying Dragon smiled. "Very good. You can still stand here after hearing that I want to kill you. In the past, when others heard this, they would immediately run away."
"Is that useful?" Tang Zheng asked.
Fair-faced Flying Dragon praised, "You are very smart. You know that running away is futile. It only adds to the fun of the game. It doesn't have much of an effect because they all died in the end. “
Tang Zheng's eyelids twitched as he sneered, "Is that so? I'm not like those people. Are you so confident that you can kill me? "
"Of course!"
Fair-faced Flying Dragon said without hesitation.
"I never thought that I would meet you here. This can be considered fate. Before I kill you, I'll let you take a look at the Heavenly Palace."
"Heavenly Palace?" Tang Zheng and Professor Qi cried out in surprise.
"Oh, it seems that you don't understand the purpose of this trip, nor do you understand the truth of this ancient tomb." Fair-faced Flying Dragon raised an eyebrow and said with a smile that was not a smile.
"Could it be that you understand?"
"I know a thing or two!" Fair-faced Flying Dragon elegantly turned around and pointed into the distance, completely unafraid of Tang Zheng's sneak attack.
Of course, Tang Zheng would not sneak attack. He and Professor Qi strode forward and looked up. Immediately, the two's attention was firmly attracted.
In the distance, there was a huge palace that towered into the sky. Wasn't this the palace in the painting?
Didn't so many people work so hard to build this palace?
The altar and the palace were exactly the same as in the painting.
The two's breaths involuntarily quickened.
Fair-faced Flying Dragon glanced at the two and said with a smile, "The wisdom of the ancients is truly endless. It's unimaginable and unattainable for us descendants."
"This is the Heavenly Palace you were talking about?" Professor Qi asked with a trembling voice.
He was not afraid, but excited. There had never been a record or description of this building in the history of Hua Xia. This meant that this discovery was unprecedented.
What did this mean for him?
Money?
Fame?
No!
He did not care about any of these.
He could complete the history of Hua Xia and even fill in the gaps in Hua Xia's history. This was what tickled his nerves the most.
Fair-faced Flying Dragon nodded, "Yes, this is the Heavenly Palace. It's magnificent and beautiful. Back then, Emperor Qin was truly an emperor, a peerless hero. Not only did he build the Terracotta Army, he also built a Heavenly Palace that ordinary people do not even know about."
"You're saying that Emperor Qin built this?" Professor Qi's breaths quickened as if he was about to have a heart attack.
"Of course. Don't tell me that you don't know who the owner of the tomb is after entering it?" Fair-faced Flying Dragon asked curiously.
Tang Zheng and Professor Qi's cheeks turned red. They really did not know.
"That's true. This ancient tomb didn't even exist in historical records. How could a normal person know about it? Who knows what kind of luck those tomb raiders had, but they somehow stumbled upon this ancient tomb and allowed it to see the light of day again." Fair-faced Flying Dragon sighed.
Tang Zheng looked at the magnificent palace as if he was looking at a mountain. This was the work of Emperor Qin. No wonder it was so shocking.
This emperor was truly not someone that ordinary people could hope to reach. It was even possible to imagine.
His thinking was far beyond the limits of a human.
As a Celestial as well, Tang Zheng could not help but feel ashamed of his inferiority. He was too inferior as a Celestial. Let alone a god-like figure like Chiyou, even Qin Shi Huang was someone he could not compare to.
He was usually proud of his achievements, but now he realized that his achievements were simply insignificant compared to this identity. It was even a bit laughable.
He could not smile at all. There was a bitter taste in his mouth.
However, he also felt that it was very strange. He had just learned of Emperor Qin's identity from the Five-clawed Golden Dragon, and now he had accidentally stumbled into his tomb. Was this the will of the heavens?
The shock in Professor Qi's heart far exceeded Tang Zheng's. There were many records of this ancient emperor in history, but many of them were vague and even mysterious. It was a secret that many historians could not find out even if they scratched their heads.
Back then, the appearance of the Terracotta Warriors had shocked the world of archaeology, the world of history, and the world.
No one would have thought that it was just the tip of the iceberg. What was even more shocking was that this was a project that could not be completed by human strength.
Professor Qi remembered another mystery in the world of archaeology. That was Emperor Qin's tomb. There were many different opinions, but no one had a definite conclusion.
He would never have thought that his tomb would be built in the vast Qinling Mountains, hidden deep in the heart of the mountains. No wonder no one had found it after such a long time.
He could not help but think of some of the famous emperors in history. In order to prevent their tombs from being raided after their death, they had used all kinds of methods and set up all kinds of traps. But compared to Emperor Qin's tomb, it was simply child's play.
Professor Qi pointed at the Heavenly Palace and asked, "Is Emperor Qin's coffin in the Heavenly Palace?"
Fair-faced Flying Dragon nodded and said, "Yes."
Professor Qi was overjoyed. He grabbed Tang Zheng's hand and said, "We must go to the Heavenly Palace, we must!"
Tang Zheng nodded. He also wanted to see this Celestial from thousands of years ago. He wanted to see if he could learn more about the secrets of Celestials.
Fair-faced Flying Dragon interrupted Professor Qi's beautiful dream, only to hear him say coldly, "I'm afraid you don't have this life. However, to be buried here with Qin Shi Huang, to be disguised as an Emperor for all eternity, this is a great honor."
Tang Zheng stepped forward to protect Professor Qi and said, "You really can't wait to kill me?"
"The longer we delay, the sooner we kill you, the better. In this world, there are too many idiots who don't make a move, and in the end, they will miss the opportunity. I, Fair-faced Flying Dragon, am not that stupid."
Tang Zheng's pupils shrank. Professor Qi was indeed a difficult person to deal with.
"Professor Qi, when we fight later, if I can't defeat him, I will find an opportunity to put you down. Then, you can't turn back. Immediately run back the way you came, and then leave this tomb. Remember, don't look back!" Tang Zheng whispered.
Professor Qi's face changed drastically. He looked at the Heavenly Palace and said reluctantly, "leave this place?"
"Yes, your life is more important than anything else. Where there is life, there is hope." Tang Zheng tried his best to persuade him. He was afraid that Professor Qi would lose his temper.
Professor Qi hesitated for a moment and then sighed, "… Okay."
Tang Zheng walked forward in large strides. When he was a few meters away from Fair-faced Flying Dragon, he looked at him with shining eyes.
Fair-faced Flying Dragon smiled and said, "Pay attention, my attack has begun."
Tang Zheng had already paid 120% attention. Hearing these words, War Soul was already firmly grasped in his hand. The sporadic mottled light was unable to cover up the destructive light of War Soul.
On the altar, there were only a few flashlights on the ground. They were not very bright, but for these two experts, it was enough to determine victory and defeat. It was enough to decide life and death.
Although he had already paid enough attention, the moment Fair-faced Flying Dragon's voice fell, Tang Zheng felt a despicable aura shoot towards him. He had not seen clearly what it was.
He quickly raised War Soul.
Ding!
With a crisp sound, War Soul trembled non-stop. Tang Zheng's feet slipped and he almost fell back.
War Soul buzzed non-stop, and Tang Zheng's arm went numb.
It was just a single strike. Moreover, he had not seen clearly how powerful it was. This caused him to be extremely frightened.
He quickly looked up and saw Fair-faced Flying Dragon's finger in the air. That despicable aura shot towards him again.
Tang Zheng did not sit still and wait for death. He leapt into the air and swoosh swoosh swoosh. War Soul slashed through the air. A cold light blossomed on War Soul's blade, creating dazzling sparks.
Tang Zheng finally saw clearly that his opponent's weapon was a throwing knife.
