065 The Headmaster of Mount Shu

Located in the western suburbs of T City, the towering villa district isolates this area from other places. As the only wealthy area in T City, it is where the city's elite and upper class are concentrated.

Inside one of the quaint villas, a group of people were gathered together, discussing something.

"Professor Qin! Judging from the patient's reactions and behavior, he is indeed a normal person!" said a middle-aged man in a white coat, who was the most authoritative psychiatrist in T City.

“Old Qin! I also believe that this person has no mental problems!” said another young doctor, also wearing a white coat.

“Old Qin! I also agree with the judgments of Dr. Zhang and Dr. Li!” the third doctor said.

"Alright! I trust your judgment!" Old Qin waved his hand. "Xiao Wang, take the doctors down to rest!"

"Yes!" the young man next to Old Qin replied, and left with the three doctors.

"Grandpa Qin! Was that person really from ancient times?" Lin Xiaomo, who was hiding to the side, asked after everyone had gone far away.

"It's hard to say! But if even these doctors say so, it's probably true!" Old Qin sighed. "T City is really going through a turbulent time right now! Come on, Xiao Mo, let's go see that strange man. Oh, and bring your white fox with you."

Old Qin led Lin Xiaomo to the door of a room and gently knocked on the latch.

"Your Majesty! May I come in?" Old Qin asked, his demeanor completely lacking the authority of a mere cameraman, for he knew that the person inside might indeed be an ancient emperor!

"Come in!" The King of Wuji Kingdom's slightly weary voice rang out. Anyone who had suddenly traversed over a thousand years would be lucky to have their spirit intact, even if they were once an emperor!

"Squeak!" The door opened, revealing the layout of the room. It was a bedroom designed entirely in a European style, with extremely luxurious bedding and mattresses.

"Did you save me?" the King of Wuji Kingdom asked.

"Your Majesty! When we found you, you had already fainted in the well."

"Oh, is that so!" The King of Wuji Kingdom looked somewhat disappointed. "This world seems a bit special! Could you tell me about it?"

"Ding! The King of Wuji Kingdom has issued a mission: Local Customs and Traditions. Please tell the King of Wuji Kingdom about events that have occurred over the past thousand years. The mission reward depends on the King's mood!" A sinister female voice simultaneously rang in the minds of Elder Qin and Lin Xiaomo.

"This..." Old Qin and Lin Xiaomo looked at each other, both seeing doubt in each other's eyes. Could this guy really be the king?

“Ahem… Xiao Mo, you studied humanities, so you must be good at history. Why don’t you tell His Majesty the King about the changes over the past thousand years?” Old Qin coughed twice, winked at Lin Xiao Mo, and then turned to the King of Wuji Kingdom and said, “Your Majesty, this is the guide we have arranged for you. She will now tell you this history!”

After saying that, without waiting for Xiao Mo to react, he got up and left.

"Hey! This is ridiculous!" Lin Xiaomo thought to herself, speechless. However, when she caught sight of the King of Wuji Kingdom's expectant gaze, her heart softened inexplicably. "Your Majesty, I will now act as your guide. First, let's begin with the Tang Dynasty..."

Without lingering after leaving the room, Old Qin strode quickly toward his study.

"Xiao Wang! Go to the database and retrieve the relevant files about Wuji Kingdom!" Old Qin said into his headset.

"Yes!" Soon, Xiao Wang came over carrying a thick stack of documents. "Mr. Qin! All the documents you requested are here!"

"Alright, just leave it here!" Old Qin waved his hand, opened the file, and kept muttering to himself, "Could there really have been a country called Wuji Kingdom in history?"

Soon, the information provided the answer: Wuji Kingdom was indeed an ancient kingdom that once existed in the Western Regions. It lasted for seventy-three years and had three generations of kings. Their second king was once pushed into a well by a fake king and was only rescued after three years.

"So, this king is very likely the same king from Wuji Kingdom?" Old Qin frowned. "But the records here clearly state that the king was rescued by the Great Sage three years later, regained the throne, and the imposter who impersonated the king was brought to justice. How do you explain this one?"

Rubbing his swollen head, Old Qin sighed softly, "Young Wang! What do you think of this matter?"

"Elder Qin! There's something I'm not sure if I should say," the young man who had been waiting by the side said.

"Just say what you have to say!"

"Mr. Qin, do you think this matter is related to the launch of the game?"

"Open the server?" Elder Qin was taken aback. "Isn't this issue still unresolved? I doubt the Heavenly Court would agree to this proposal."

"However, the number of players this year has exceeded that of previous years. As far as I know, the number of new players in T City this year has already reached three digits. And hasn't the Western Church been pushing hard for the launch and operation of the game?"

"Western religion?" Old Qin thought for a moment. "That's quite possible. Historically, Wuji Kingdom has been within their sphere of influence..."

"Old Qin, do you think the King of Wuji Kingdom might be a backup plan left behind by the Western Sect?" Xiao Wang voiced his thoughts. "After all, the two sides have been fighting for so many years, it's normal for them to plant some pawns on each other's territory!"

"The people of Heaven shouldn't just sit idly by and watch this happen!" Elder Qin was still somewhat skeptical. "However, what you said does make some sense. Here, bring me the communication talisman, and I'll report this information to the head of the Shu Mountain sect."

"Yes!" Soon, Xiao Wang brought over a green jade talisman.

Old Qin held the communication talisman in his hand, muttering incantations. Soon, the talisman lit up, and the phantom of an old man with white hair appeared from it.

"Xu Ren, have you heard anything lately?" the old man asked.

"Reporting to the Sect Leader, this disciple has something to report!" Soon, Elder Qin recounted the matter of the King of Wuji Kingdom to the old man.

"So, your speculation makes a lot of sense. The Western Cult did indeed interfere in the affairs of Wuji Kingdom!" The old man stroked his beard and thought for a moment. "But you should put this matter aside for now?"

"Please enlighten me, Master!" Elder Qin asked, taken aback.

“There is a celestial being under your jurisdiction here to undergo tribulation. The Heavenly Court has already sent an immortal to receive him. Although my Shu Mountain lineage is outside the Heavenly Court system, there are still some formalities to be observed. You will be in charge of handling the reception for that immortal!”

"I will obey the sect leader's decree!" Elder Qin dared not object and agreed.

"Alright! I'll discuss the matter of that king with the elders when I get back. You wait for news!" The illusory figure flashed and disappeared.
