Lin Caogen turned to Gu Qing and Zhang Xieling and said, "I thank you both for your chivalry today for coming to help me outside the city! This matter was done by me alone and has nothing to do with you. I will bear all the consequences!"
Zhang Xieling laughed and said, "Brother, you're being too polite! I, Zhang Xieling, am just offering my life to accompany you!"
Gu Qing smiled and said, "I didn't expect that Young Master Lin really possesses unparalleled martial arts skills. No wonder you've always been so confident!"
Look at Gu Qing!
Lin Caogen couldn't help but think of Gu Xun'er! All these consequences were caused by his return to the past! At this moment, Gu Xun'er hadn't even been born!
Lin Caogen suddenly cupped his hands to Zhang Xieling and said, "Brother Xieling! I heard Miss Qing'er say that you might know the whereabouts of the Soul-Startling Vine!"
Zhang Xieling laughed and said, "Gu Qing told me about this! I know where to find the Soul-Shocking Vine, but I was too scared to go alone before! But seeing Brother Lin's incredible bravery today, I'm much more confident now!"
Lin Caogen asked curiously, "Oh? Brother Evil Spirit, tell me where this place is? No matter how dangerous it is, I have to go! After all, this Soul-Scarring Vine is of great importance to me!"
Zhang Xieling smiled eerily and said, "Brother Lin, have you ever heard of the tomb of the Queen Mother of the West?"
Lin Caogen exclaimed in surprise, "Queen Mother of the West! Who is this person? I've never heard of her before!"
Zhang Xieling laughed and said, "In this Ziwei District where we are, a million years ago there was a Celestial Emperor of the 9th level! She was the Queen Mother of the West! Unfortunately, the Queen Mother of the West perished in the last world-destroying war, and her descendants buried her remains in this Ziwei District! I heard that the Ziwei Emperor Du Ziqiong is a descendant of the Queen Mother of the West. However, the Ziwei Emperor awakened her talent, so she was able to quickly advance to the Celestial Emperor level, while most of the Queen Mother of the West's other descendants are mediocre, and there are very few who can even advance to the Celestial Saint level!"
Lin Caogen gasped, "So that's it! No wonder Du Ziqiong's cultivation speed is so fast!"
Zhang Xieling said, "Du Ziqiong has advanced to the Immortal Emperor realm and unified the Ziwei District. She now holds considerable influence in the Immortal Continent! Although she is only a one-star Emperor, she is still an Emperor, and the Great Emperors of the surrounding nine districts still give her some face! To express her gratitude for the blessings of her ancestor, the Queen Mother of the West, I heard that Du Ziqiong also renovated the Queen Mother of the West's tomb a few years ago!"
Lin Caogen said, "So! Brother Xieling means we're going to rob the tomb of the Queen Mother of the West!?"
Zhang Xieling chuckled eerily, “Exactly! My Zhang family, as one of the eight great families, originally made our fortune through tomb raiding! It’s just a pity that we were born with a defect; every member of our clan has a cursed pattern on their back, meaning none of us will live past three thousand years old. If it weren’t for the age limit, my Zhang family could have produced an emperor long ago! I’ve heard that the Queen Mother of the West possesses a treasure called the Ten Dragons and Eight Phoenixes Pearl! This pearl can defy fate and is extremely effective at breaking curses! That’s why I’ve always wanted to go to the Queen Mother of the West’s tomb!”
After saying that, Zhang Xieling took off his shirt and exposed his back to Lin Caogen!
A menacing, blood-red eye pattern was visible on its powerful back muscles! Black lines had spread around the pattern all over its body!
Zhang Xieling said, "I am already 2,000 years old! If I can't find the Ten Dragons and Nine Phoenixes Pearl in another hundred years, I will die! It's just a pity that my parents are already 2,990 years old! They only have less than 10 years left!"
Lin Caogen was deeply saddened upon hearing this!
"Brother! I'll lend you a hand in finding the Ten Dragons and Nine Phoenixes Pearl. So what if it's the tomb of the Queen Mother of the West? Tell me where the tomb is! Let's go there now!"
Zhang Xieling was overjoyed and said, "Brother Lin is indeed highly skilled and daring! Even my elders wouldn't dare to sneak into the tomb of the Queen Mother of the West. I never expected Brother Lin to have such courage and loyalty! Alright! I'll tell you where the Queen Mother of the West's tomb is!"
Gu Qing said, "You two are going! I'm going too!"
Gu Qing is Zhang Xieling's childhood friend; the two are inseparable!
Even if Ruolin Caogen hadn't shown up today, Zhang Xieling and Gu Qing would still have gone to the tomb of the Queen Mother of the West! Unsurprisingly, they both died inside!
Gu Qing's soul was reincarnated as Gu Xun'er, while Zhang Xieling's soul was reincarnated as Ling Chong!
Gu Xun'er was fortunate; she was reincarnated as the daughter of the Gu family patriarch and became a direct descendant. Zhang Xieling, on the other hand, was reincarnated into an ordinary family and relied on his own hard work throughout his life, never resorting to bribery. Fortunately, being reincarnated into an ordinary family also broke his cursed fate!
Once a person is reincarnated, all memories of their previous life are erased!
Lin Caogen's return to the past has actually interfered with the life trajectories of these two! If these two do not die, Ling Chong and Gu Xun'er will never exist again!
Lin Caogen had already understood everything by this time!
He discovered who others were reincarnated from, but what about himself? Who was he reincarnated from?
Zhang Xieling interrupted Lin Caogen's train of thought, saying, "Brother Lin! Let's set off now! I've already prepared everything! The tomb of the Queen Mother of the West is actually located at the foot of Qixia Mountain on the First Ring Continent!"
Lin Caogen nodded and said, "Alright! Let's not delay! Cangyue, go back to Zijing City and find the most luxurious restaurant to wait for me! The tomb is dangerous, so don't go!"
After saying this, the three of them embarked on their journey and arrived at Qixia Mountain a few days later!
Qixia Mountain is not very high, and it is about ten kilometers long and wide!
Tens of thousands of troops are stationed on Qixia Mountain, which is 300 meters high!
Zhang Xieling said, "Qixia Mountain is one of the garrison locations! The soldiers on the mountain are all direct troops of the Ziwei Emperor! The commander is a newly promoted Immortal Saint named Wang Ping! Among these 10,000 elite troops, there are 10 Immortal Venerable experts, each commanding 1,000 soldiers! There are more than 100 junior commanders with my strength!"
Lin Caogen nodded and said, "They are indeed elite! Even a saint-level expert would likely be captured alive if he dared to venture in alone!"
