Tomb Raiders: After the Nine Gates Ancestor, they let loose and did whatever they wanted!

As dusk falls, the afterglow of the setting sun resembles a soft, velvety blanket, gently covering a corner of the sky.

A gentle breeze brought a touch of coolness to the height of summer, and the lush leaves rustled softly.

It seemed to be whispering a story of bustling life amidst the height of summer.

The dappled shade of the trees, bathed in the setting sun, exudes a touch of coolness, making it the perfect spot for a rocking chair.

A winding stream flows gently through the waterside garden, its surface shimmering with the light of the setting sun.

Everything was so natural and harmonious, all thanks to the little one who made all the difference!

?( ?'?'?)?

Lotus buds, waiting to bloom, float on the stream beneath the small bridge, releasing a fragrant aroma. I alone admire the lotus for its purity, rising from the mud unsullied.

Magnolia trees of various colors that originally bud in spring and are sun-loving and cold-resistant

Especially the magnolia tree in front of Xianxian's window, with its pink and white blossoms complementing each other, is thriving under the nourishment of spiritual energy, its branches laden with blossoms.

(?′ヮ′)?*:???

And immersed in the tranquil and simple happiness of living in the natural world.

However, the disappearance of two returnees from overseas across the ocean stirred up a ripple, shattering this tranquility and beauty.

If we start counting from when Lingwu passed the test, it's almost been three hours!

The enthusiastic little one even tagged Qianheng and Kuixing in the temporary group chat, but their responses went unanswered.

╮(?????|||)╭

If we're talking about Qianheng being so engrossed in researching materialistic explosives that his disappearances are somewhat understandable.

However, Kui Xing, the diplomat of the Ghost Spirit Sect, often went diving during his rest time; he was calm and taciturn.

But if it's related to the little star, I'll definitely say something; I'll never ignore a read message.

"They're not answering messages or replying to texts. Could they have been swept away by a storm at sea?"

Even drowning people at least try to surface, but these two just sank to the bottom!

Jin Yan spoke in a somewhat sarcastic and melancholic tone, twirling the jade and mother-of-pearl inlaid pipe in her hand.

As Jin Yan's fingers danced across the paper, she felt the warmth of the jade and the delicacy of the mother-of-pearl, which exuded an eccentric and mysterious aura.

The pipe shaft was meticulously carved from ebony and jade.

It is crystal clear throughout, emitting a faint luster and presenting a warm and smooth texture.

Its color is an extremely pure, bright green, like a tender new shoot in spring, full of vitality and life.

It complements Jin Yan's light green dress perfectly, creating a harmonious look. It's a small, exquisite fashion item that really adds to the overall appeal!

Jin Yan: Nothing I did today was a waste of time. It would be such a shame if Qian Heng and Kui Xing, those two very busy people, couldn't come back tonight!

(?▂?)

Xianzai'er: I understand you—so many regrets, so many expectations, do you know how you feel!

?(?ˊ?ˋ)?* ??(o^^o)?

The body of the pipe is decorated with cloisonné enamel and mother-of-pearl inlay techniques, which makes the entire pipe look more exquisite and luxurious.

The delicate and ornate texture of mother-of-pearl, combined with the brilliance of cloisonné enamel, showcases the exquisite craftsmanship of the artisans at Hibiscus Spring.

?(*′?`*)?wohu~

Jin Yan: It was worth all the time and effort I spent having people search everywhere outside the Forbidden City for the remains of Qimen Dunjia and the exquisite craftsmanship.

Such good stuff must be kept; it's just a matter of feeding a few more people. Let's pack it all up and put it in our pockets!

(???????)??

Due to the indiscriminate bombing of China, even the most basic needs for food and clothing could not be met, and many treasures were lost, gradually withering away and disappearing.

In the torrent of history, everything seems to be swept away and swallowed up by the merciless waves, leaving only these legacies as witnesses.

To record the traces of history clearly and vividly, and to carry on the bloodline of culture!

Transforming into special seeds that link the past, present, and future of national memory

??o·(? ?????????? )?o·?

Yan Ling and Jin Yan saw something rather regrettable while looting the spoils of war from the Kou Island people.

They decided to act immediately, planning to subtly develop their business using these rare items.

Finally, they quietly monopolized the market, increasing the popularity and appeal of Furong Spring Color!

To further expand the intelligence network and prepare for a market that will gradually become saturated in the future.

In the end, everyone unanimously decided that while actively learning, they could also make a quick buck—a valuable cultural heritage—and gain an extra legitimate connection in times of crisis.

Having more friends means having more options, right?

Who could complain about having too few connections and resources?

(￣y▽￣)~* Cover your mouth and snicker

Xianxian: Maybe~ Furong Spring Scenery can even become an intangible cultural heritage park in the future, promoting positive social energy!

When we all follow Boss Yan to grow bigger and stronger, we'll definitely be in high demand!

?(?ˉ???ˉ???)?”

Since you've decided to socialize with officials in the future, try not to cause trouble at home and leave a criminal record. Maintain good habits!

And here we are, two people on the other side of the ocean, still cleaning up the mess indiscriminately!

O-(///￣皿￣)? Retreat! Retreat! Retreat!

─═≡☆゜★▄︻▇▇〓▄︻┻┳═

Moreover, the Ghost Spirit Sect holds the secret to immortality, and since they had already decided on their development direction from the beginning...

—Become a law-abiding citizen, and even if you live a long life, never be a fugitive, constantly on the run, or a wanted criminal! ↗

Thanks! (｀?w?′)ゞ(｀?w?′)ゞ

It doesn't make sense. Braving wind and rain, spending money! Risking their lives! Risking their spiritual energy!

They racked their brains to rid themselves of evil spirits for happiness and peace, only to end up singing "Tears Behind Bars!"

(?·_·)︻╦╤─ ? - -●-●-●-●-●

Everyone: We want to be licensed monks openly and honestly!

You get discounts when you take the train, subway, or plane!

This isn't about money; it's about principle!

??

Whether it's gathering intelligence during wartime or protecting heritage during peacetime!

This keen insight and decisive action

Who wouldn't say that he's both politically sound and professionally competent after seeing this?
