The wise and benevolent King You of Chen has passed away.

The whole nation mourned.

The crowd together escorted King You of Chen to his final resting place, placing him in the mausoleum.

The mausoleum was built by Liu Xu long ago, and its location and interior layout are the same as those of the ancient tombs they excavated in modern times.

Liu Xu did not place any gold or silver jewelry as burial goods. Instead, he sealed the bamboo slips and books from that time in a special way as his burial items.

There is a hidden chamber in the main burial chamber where the burial goods were placed.

Liu Tong led Han Xinying into the tomb first and found a place to hide.

Once the coffin was carried into the main burial chamber, the two men emerged from their hiding place.

A rumbling sound came from afar; it was the sound of the tomb being sealed shut.

Han Xinying said to Liu Dong, "If we can't get back to the modern world, we'll just have to die in this tomb."

Liu Tong: "Then, when Professor Han discovers your remains, it can be considered that you've gone home."

Han Xinying suffered a heart attack and ground her teeth at Liu Dong.

Liu Tong smiled at Han Xinying, quickened her pace, and ran into the main tomb chamber.

Liu Dong opened the coffin lid, and Liu Xu sat up inside.

Han Xinying twitched her lips and said, "You look like a zombie."

Liu Xu ignored her teasing and pulled Liu Qiu to another tomb chamber.

When they returned, the two had changed back into modern clothes.

The two cut off their long hair that had grown over the years and removed their makeup, restoring their youthful appearance, making them look exactly the same as when they entered this dynasty.

Han Xinying, on the other hand, has matured a lot in appearance over the past ten years.

This is because she has divine power nourishing her body, which makes her look no more than twenty-seven or twenty-eight years old despite being over forty.

Han Xinying couldn't help but feel jealous, and she asked, "Do you have women's clothing?"

Liu Tong: "Didn't you keep the clothes you wore when you came from the modern world?"

Han Xinying: "It's already been ruined by Huangfu Yingtian."

Fearing that she would return to the modern world, Huangfu Yingtian secretly destroyed her modern clothes.

Thinking of Huangfu Yingtian, Han Xinying felt much depressed.

The Huangfu family was destroyed by Liu Xu, but Huangfu Yingtian was, after all, a hero who killed demons and saved the world. Liu Xu did not punish Huangfu Yingtian, but instead gave all of the Huangfu family's property to Huangfu Yingtian.

Huangfu Yingtian learned what Han Xinying had done and divorced her.

After the divorce, Huangfu Yingtian left the capital with his son and two concubines and settled in Jiangnan, becoming neighbors with Mingguang and Shuixin.

Han Xinying never imagined that she and Huangfu Yingtian would end up like this.

She no longer believes in love, and even after returning to the modern world, she doesn't want to get married.

It's perfectly fine to live alone for the rest of your life.

There were no clothes for Han Xinying to change into, so she could only stand beside the Liu brothers in ancient costume.

Liu Dong released the power of time that the Four Gods had given him.

The power of time enveloped the three, sending them into the river of time.

After the white light faded, the three people disappeared from the main burial chamber.

……

In modern times, after the white light faded, everyone opened their eyes.

It's no longer just about discovering that three people have disappeared; things have changed without anyone knowing.
Everyone was stunned by Han Xinying's appearance.

Han Jianyuan asked in surprise, "Xinying, why did you suddenly change your clothes?"

Did he see wrong? Why does his daughter suddenly look several years older?

Han Xinying: "..."

In front of everyone, she couldn't tell Han Jianyuan about her experiences, so she only said, "I don't know either." Taking advantage of everyone's attention being on Han Xinying, the Liu brothers, Liu Dong and Liu Xu, perfectly blended into the crowd.

The crowd then saw the scroll with the imagery, and the main character depicted on it.

Everyone looked at the painting, then at Han Xinying, and they all believed that Han Xinying's change was related to the painting.

And the white light from before!
Could there really be some mysterious power in this world?
Han Jianyuan composed himself, handed over the excavation work to Zhang Wushuo, and left with Han Xinying.

Liu Xu and Liu Tong remained in the tomb, continuing their exploration with the others.

The coffin was opened, and to everyone's surprise, there were no remains inside, only a set of imperial robes.

Everyone looked at each other.

Someone said, "Could this tomb be fake? Otherwise, why haven't we found any burial goods along the way?"

Everyone thought this reason was very valid.

Everyone was very disappointed. Had this excavation yielded nothing?
Liu Xu: "Of course there are! The strokes on the outside represent harvests."

Zhang Wushuo nodded: "The murals outside have certain research value for our study of the history of the Chen Dynasty."

Liu Dong pretended to knock on the wall, "accidentally" opening the secret room.

Everyone: "..."

Zhang Wushuo was overjoyed to see the bamboo slips that were sealed so well.

"We've had a great harvest this time."

Even the scattered remains of emperors cannot compare to the value of these bamboo slips.

This is cultural material preserved for thousands of years!
While Zhang Wushuo was happily leading his students to carefully organize the bamboo slips, Han Jianyuan pulled his daughter aside and asked her what had happened.

There were only the father and daughter inside the tent. Han Xinying did not hide anything and told them about her experience.

Han Jianyuan: "..."

As an archaeologist, Han Jianyuan had seen some things that science could not explain, but his daughter’s experience was so amazing that he could not believe it for a while.

"real or fake?"

Han Xinying imitated Liu Xu by opening her right hand, and a small flame appeared in her palm.

Han Jianyuan: "..."

"I understand. Give me some time."

Han Jianyuan rubbed his forehead, sorting through his daughter's words: His daughter had been summoned to ancient times, become the spokesperson for the gods, and gained divine power, and then she returned...

This really sounds like a scene from a TV drama!

But the flame in the daughter's hand proved that everything was real.

Han Jianyuan sighed and said, "I'll make a phone call."

Han Xinying: "??"

Han Jianyuan found a name in the phone and dialed it.

Han Xinying listened to her father's conversation with the other party, her eyes wide with surprise.

So, does the Guo Jia actually have a department specifically for dealing with fantastical and bizarre events?

After hanging up the phone, Han Jianyuan said, "Someone will come to see you. Don't be afraid, just tell me what's going on. Don't worry, Guo Jia won't make things difficult for you. He might even recruit you into a special department. I heard the benefits there are very good."

The truth about my daughter can't be hidden forever.

After all, there were so many people in the tomb, and the daughter had changed so much.

Rather than letting others expose your daughter's affair, it's better to report it to the relevant authorities first and have them suppress the matter.

Han Xinying understood her father's considerations and wholeheartedly agreed.

She opened her mouth, wanting to tell the story of how the Liu brothers had traveled through time with her and that Liu Xu was still the King of Chen You, but found that she couldn't bring herself to say it.

If she absolutely had to speak, she feared she would lose her life the moment she uttered the first word. (End of Chapter)
