About an hour later, Sun Xiuling arrived at the scene with several experts.

When Sun Xiuling saw Zhang Beixing, she went up to greet him.

When the village chief saw the experts arrive, he believed Zhang Beixing's words and hurriedly sent them to examine the stone tablet.

Several experts then went into the field and carefully examined the stone tablet.

Zhang Beixing knew nothing about this, only that it might be an artifact from the Ming Dynasty, so he stood quietly to the side.

Sun Xiuling then asked Zhang Beixing to recount what had happened.

"Didn't we explain everything clearly over the phone? That's the situation."

"You've really done a great job this time. Maybe we can use this to uncover the secrets behind the Divine Dragon Society."

Zhang Beixing said, "I hope so. I just hope to find Zhu Xiaoling as soon as possible."

As for what will ultimately happen to the Divine Dragon Society, he seems to no longer care.

"Would you like to walk around with me?" Sun Xiuling suddenly said.

Zhang Beixing was slightly taken aback. It sounded like he would only say something like that if he were very familiar with the other person.

Seeing this, Sun Xiuling smiled and explained, "I already consider you a friend. Can't you come for a walk with me?"

Zhang Beixing laughed and said, "Of course, they might have already figured it out by the time we get back."

Then, the two of them began to wander aimlessly.

Sun Xiuling said she especially likes coming to the countryside because the countryside can heal people's troubles.

Zhang Beixing wholeheartedly agreed, but added that while it was indeed a great place to visit, people might not be used to living there long-term.

After all, people are used to urban life now, and no matter how fast-paced or troublesome it is, they still prefer to stay there.

"You have a point."

Then, Sun Xiuling took the initiative to talk about her troubles.

Despite her good job now, her life isn't as wonderful as most people imagine.

"Many people think I'm very happy, but little do they know that I also have troubles?"

She said that she was willing to confide in Zhang Beixing because he was a stranger; if he were an acquaintance, she would be embarrassed to speak up.

I understand how you feel; I sometimes feel the same way.

Half an hour later, the two returned to the field. Sun Xiuling asked the experts about the current situation.

Several experts stated that they have reached preliminary conclusions, but further in-depth research is still needed.

Moreover, they planned to take the stone tablet with them.

Zhang Beixing thought to himself, "I need to go back and investigate. Are they being too cautious, or is their professional competence really limited?"

Sun Xiuling said, "Okay, you must let us know as soon as you have any news."

At this moment, Sun Xiuling remembered a crucial question and asked Zhang Beixing why he was here.

Zhang Beixing then told her about the martial arts school.

"Wow, you're amazing! You actually managed to run a martial arts school. Did you get all the paperwork done?"

"Don't worry, there's no problem. We're just waiting for the school to be built."

Sun Xiuling and several experts then left temporarily.

She told Zhang Beixing that she would contact him if she had any news.

"Okay, I'll wait for your news."

After they all left, the farmer asked Zhang Beixing, "If I find something like this, will I get a reward?"

"Don't worry, you'll definitely get your share of the benefits."

The farmers were very happy to hear this.

After a while, Zhang Beixing returned to the villa.

The next day, Zhu Xiaoling woke up, and Sister Ma left.

During breakfast, she asked Mr. Jia where they should go next. Were they going to stay here again tonight?
"Don't worry, I'll take you to another place tonight. Our Divine Dragon Society has many strongholds."

Then, Mr. Jia instructed the servants to pay their respects to the saintess.

The servants came quickly and bowed respectfully.

This made Zhu Xiaoling very happy. Although she had lost her memory, she vaguely felt that when she had her memories, she must have been a very insecure person.

She probably rarely received any greetings before, so she felt extremely satisfied with the treatment she was receiving.

Mr. Jia just liked making her feel that way.

After a while, Mr. Jia waved his hand, signaling the servants to leave.

"So? Are you satisfied?"

Zhu Xiaoling nodded, but she was also very curious.

"I'd like to ask, are you the top leader of the Divine Dragon Society?"

"Of course not, I'm just a nobody. The top leader is called the chairman."

Zhu Xiaoling said "Oh," and then asked, "So, who's older, me or the president?"

"Of course it will grow up."

"When can I see the president?"

Don't worry, we'll meet sooner or later.

Then, Zhu Xiaoling frowned.

Mr. Jia asked, "What's wrong?"

"I just want to regain my memories; this feeling is just too agonizing."...

As Zhu Xiaoling spoke, tears welled up in her eyes. She told Mr. Jia that she had heard the Divine Dragon Society was incredibly powerful, and that it must be full of hidden talents and experts.

Perhaps there is a skilled doctor who can help her regain her memory.

Mr. Jia gently comforted her, saying he would do his best to make it happen.

Zhu Xiaoling added that although she had lost her memory, she still had the ability to read. There were many pictures painted on the walls of the room, and she could recognize the words on them.

"Of course, you've just lost your memory, not your intelligence."

Zhu Xiaoling pointed to her phone and said that she could use it too, but it was completely empty because Mr. Jia had cleared all the information on it and restored it to factory settings.

She even changed her SIM card, just in case someone called her, especially Zhang Beixing.

"Actually, losing your memory isn't necessarily a bad thing; at least you'll have far fewer worries."

Then, Mr. Jia began to expound on some profound philosophical viewpoints.

After hearing this, Zhu Xiaoling found it quite reasonable.

Meanwhile, in Lin Kingdom, Shui Qingli continued to closely monitor the case of the woman's missing daughter.

She instructed her office staff to go to the police station to find out more.

Half an hour later, the office staff returned to report that the woman's daughter had been tricked by a friend, and an investigation into this friend was underway.

But when they arrived at their friend's house today, they found that he had already committed suicide by taking poison.

Shui Qingli asked why she had only gone to that person's house today.

It turns out that I had been unable to contact this person for the past few days; it was as if they had vanished into thin air.

We finally managed to get in touch today, but then this unexpected turn of events happened, and the trail went cold again.

Shui Qingli increasingly felt that this matter was inextricably linked to the mastermind behind it all.

Therefore, she asked everyone to continue to keep a close eye on the case.

Meanwhile, Shui Qingli also issued a nationwide announcement reminding everyone to be wary of high-salary temptations. She stressed that job hunting must be done through legitimate channels, and those with daughters in their families should be especially cautious.

She also specifically mentioned related events that occurred in the Kyushu Empire, suspecting they were the work of the same person, and hoped everyone would take this seriously.

The news spread quickly and attracted widespread attention.

Many people recalled that night when Shui Qingli went to the restaurant for dinner and couldn't help but sigh that their new king truly cared about the safety of his people and was a rare good king.

They felt incredibly proud to have such a ruler.

Online, people have also begun to spontaneously investigate the disappearance of the girl.

Moreover, similar cases have occurred in other places recently, leading to widespread speculation about a possible connection between the two.

Another day passed. In the early morning, after Zhang Beixing got up, he quickly received a call from Sun Xiuling.

The investigation into the antique is nearing its end, and Sun Xiuling wants to arrange a meeting with Zhang Beixing to ask if he is available.

"Of course I'm free. Send me your address and I'll come to your office to find you."

Zhang Beixing received the address very quickly.

An hour later, Zhang Beixing arrived at Sun Xiuling's office.

However, Sun Xiuling happened to be out on business at the time, so she asked him to wait in the office for a moment.

There were several other employees in the office, and they all looked at Zhang Beixing with some strange expressions.

Before long, they started whispering among themselves, saying that Sun Xiuling must have taken a liking to this boy.

Sun Xiuling is usually a very aloof person, and most people simply don't catch her eye.

It seems this boy truly has exceptional abilities. Although they were speaking very softly, Zhang Beixing could hear them clearly.

However, Zhang Beixing pretended not to hear, so as not to embarrass them.

"Alright, let's stop talking about it. It wouldn't be good if someone overheard us," an employee said in a low voice, finally ending the discussion.

A few minutes later, Sun Xiuling rushed over and apologized to Zhang Beixing as soon as she saw him.

He said he was busy with official business and had just gone out on errands.

"It's okay, I understand."

Then, Sun Xiuling formally introduced Zhang Beixing to her colleagues.

At this moment, many people suddenly realized that they had heard of Zhang Beixing before, but had never had the chance to meet him in person. They never expected to meet him here today.

"So you are the hero of the Kyushu Empire. It is a great honor to meet you today."

"Yes, I was so excited to meet the hero."

Next, many people began to flatter Zhang Beixing, which made Zhang Beixing a little embarrassed.

"Alright, stop praising me, or I'll get cocky," Zhang Beixing said with a grin.

"Alright, let's get back to the main topic now," Sun Xiuling said.

Sun Xiuling began, saying that after careful examination and in-depth research, the experts had confirmed that the stone tablet was indeed from the Ming Dynasty. Several colleagues nearby listened attentively upon hearing this.

After all, they had heard about it recently.

Sun Xiuling then stated that, after analysis, experts believe that the Shenlong Society already existed during the Ming Dynasty.

"Could it be even earlier than the Ming Dynasty?" Zhang Beixing asked.

Moreover, is that stone tablet really from the Ming Dynasty? Could it be a forgery by later generations?
Sun Xiuling responded that, after analysis, the experts clearly stated that it was absolutely not a forgery.

Some of the inscriptions on the stone tablet are enough to prove that it is indeed an object from the Ming Dynasty.

They also plan to consult relevant historical experts to conduct in-depth research on this matter.

Perhaps this will allow us to uncover some secrets of the Divine Dragon Society.

For example, their principles or such.

Zhang Beixing reminded them that they must investigate the matter concerning the saintess.

“I understand, and I have already mentioned this to the experts.”

Sun Xiuling said that she would have lunch with Zhang Beixing today and would also introduce him to a historian. Zhang Beixing was very pleased to hear this.

"Alright, in that case, you can wait in the reception room tomorrow, and we'll go out together at noon."

Zhang Beixing nodded, and then someone led him to the reception room.

At noon, Sun Xiuling and Zhang Beixing went out for lunch together.

Sun Xiuling had already made an appointment with a history professor, an elderly man in his sixties with gray hair.

The old professor's surname was Meng. He had also heard of Zhang Beixing's name and was very polite to him when he met him.

They said things like, "I've long admired your name, and seeing you today, I can confirm that your reputation is well-deserved."

The professor seemed very humble. Sun Xiuling's main intention was to introduce them to each other so that they could communicate more easily in the future.

Professor Meng suggested that Zhang Beixing come with him to the university campus later so that they could have a proper chat in his office.

This was exactly what Zhang Beixing wanted, so he readily agreed.

In the afternoon, in the university office.

Professor Meng asked Zhang Beixing to give a detailed account of what he knew about the Shenlong Society.

Zhang Beixing then began to recount the story, naturally starting with the information he had learned from the Fang siblings.

Professor Meng took a book from the bookshelf and opened it to a page.

"I've marked this page, take a good look at it."

Zhang Beixing read it carefully.

This book does indeed contain records about the Divine Dragon Society.

However, the recorded information is not extensive.

Moreover, there are very few records of this in other materials.

“I had actually seen this information before, but I didn’t study it in depth and just ignored it.”

But Zhang Beixing was somewhat disappointed to see that there were only a few hundred words inside.

Professor Meng smiled and took out another book.

"This book contains more detailed information; I borrowed it from a large library."

Professor Meng also said that the record contained information about the saintess.

Zhang Beixing immediately began to read it carefully.

Originally, the leader of the Shenlong Society, which started in the Ming Dynasty, was not called the president, but the dragon lord.

The dragon lordship was hereditary, and around the tenth generation, it was suddenly invaded by foreign enemies.

The Dragon Lord was chased into the wilderness.

Just then, he was rescued by a girl in white.

The girl in white was a martial arts expert with exceptional skills. She ultimately helped him regain power and eliminate his enemies.

To thank the young woman, the Dragon Lord made her a saintess of the Divine Dragon Society and had his subordinates support her.

The girl agreed, because although she was highly skilled in martial arts, she came from a poor family and was looking for a place to stay.

Furthermore, it was stipulated that any girl among the descendants of a saint would become a saint herself, while any boy would become a pillar of the society.

That's all the information recorded. As for what happened to the saintess's descendants, nobody knows.

After reviewing these records, Zhang Beixing still hadn't gotten the answer he wanted.

"Zhang Beixing, I know you're disappointed, but it's better than no news at all, right?" (End of Chapter)
