To his surprise, no danger occurred until he landed.
When he got up from the ground, he was surprised to find an ancient tomb at the foot of the mountain. Outside the tomb, there were some broken walls and some statues, but most of them had been weathered away, leaving only some base stones.
Upon seeing the ancient tomb, his eyes lit up immediately, and all his fear vanished. He began to study the surroundings, sometimes looking at the remaining statues, sometimes examining the carved patterns up close, and then taking out a compass to explore the area while measuring something with his steps.
Seeing that he showed no signs of distress, the Demon Emperor then arrived with the Golden Crow Prince, his brows furrowed as he stared at the ancient tomb before him.
"This ancient tomb seems rather dilapidated," Prince Jinwu frowned. "A tomb in such a state of disrepair probably doesn't contain anything of value."
In order to demonstrate his usefulness to the Demon Emperor and prevent him from easily sacrificing himself, Wu Liang hurriedly explained, "Your Highness, don't underestimate this tomb. Although it looks extremely dilapidated now, its structure and scale clearly indicate that the tomb's occupant was an emperor-level figure in his lifetime."
"An emperor? How can it be so simple?" the Demon Emperor asked suspiciously.
“The location, the orientation of the tomb, and the details of these statues all indicate that this is indeed an imperial mausoleum, but the scale is indeed somewhat disproportionate,” Wu Liang said after a moment of contemplation. “There are several possibilities for this situation. One is that the country of the tomb owner was on the verge of extinction and did not have enough national strength to build an imperial mausoleum. However, I think the details of this mausoleum seem to be quite perfect, which does not seem to be the case.”
"The second possibility is that the tomb owner was likely an emperor who reigned for a very short period of time and died young."
"There is another possibility: the tomb owner was a deposed emperor who was overthrown, so the various forms and specifications of the tomb are much more rudimentary than those of a normal imperial mausoleum."
As he was explaining, a long sigh suddenly came to mind: "Hahaha, after so many years, finally someone knows my grievances."
Wu Liang was startled and quickly shrank back behind the Demon Emperor, because the voice was coming from the tomb, and it was exactly the same voice that had lured them here!
The Demon Emperor also looked solemn as he gazed in the direction of the ancient tomb: "Are you human or a ghost?"
