"Is he a descendant of the Chen Family from the Capital City?"
The old man was suddenly startled, frozen in place.
He stared intently at Yang Tian, scrutinizing him from top to bottom, without knowing why, he increasingly felt that Yang Tian bore so resemblance to Chen Ming, the Clan Leader of the foremost family in the Capital City, the Chen Clan.
Especially Yang Tian's nose, it was almost identical to that of Chen Ming as he rembered.
"Master Wu, I was the old steward of the Chen Family back in the day, you should be aware of this, right?"
Chu Qian asked with a smile.
"That's right, you and Chen Tianbao were indeed the old stewards of the Chen Clan back then!" The old man said, and then stared intently at Yang Tian again: "So this young man is really a descendant of the Chen Family from the Capital City?"
"Absolutely true!"
Chu Qian said earnestly.
"In that case, the old man must apologize to you!"
The old man said and then bowed to Yang Tian.
"What's going on here? Isn't this old man the head of the Wu Family, one of the four great families of East Sea? Why is he bowing to a young man?"
Not far away, several n and won imdiately recognized the old man as soone from the four great families of East Sea.
After all, the four great families of East Sea were well-known in Huaxia.
Their leaders often appeared on the list of Huaxia's richest, and frequently in the dia.
So it was normal for soone to recognize the old man.
But what they found abnormal was that such a significant figure from the Wu Family was bowing to a young man?
"Master Wu, young master, please follow ."
Chu Qian led Elder Wu and Yang Tian into a luxurious VIP room.
"Elder Wu, may I ask what important business brought you to West Capital suddenly?"
As soon as Yang Tian sat down, he directly asked.
Although it seed quite direct.
Still, Yang Tian was puzzled, wasn't Wu Yue already missing? How co the old man from the Wu Family ran over here?
Was the old man from the Wu Family here because of Wu Yue?
"Well..." Elder Wu glanced at Yang Tian and said, "Sorry, please forgive for not being able to answer that."
Yang Tian fell silent.
Seeing that the atmosphere was sowhat awkward, Chu Qian smiled and said, "Elder Wu ca here specially to see , an old acquaintance."
Elder Wu sat back on the sofa and also smiled.
"Is it because of Wu Yue?"
Yang Tian directly asked again.
Elder Wu looked puzzled: "Mr. Chen, you know my granddaughter? Although I don't know what your relationship with my granddaughter is, I'm here because of sothing else. My granddaughter is still in East Sea, you can find her when you have ti, she's still single..."
Yang Tian nodded, so Elder Wu wasn't here because of Wu Yue.
Then why did Elder Wu co here?
And from the first sight of Elder Wu, Yang Tian felt the other party's anxious and tense deanor, suggesting he was troubled.
Elder Wu was the clan leader of the Wu Family, and such a big event as Wu Yue's disappearance could not have escaped his notice.
The only explanation is that Elder Wu ca here secretly.
So why did Elder Wu co here?
At the mont, Yang Tian said nothing more and instead looked at Chu Qian: "Madam Chu, I'm here to trouble you a little."
"Young master, no need to be so polite. I was born a person of the Chen Family, and I shall die a ghost of the Chen Family. Whatever you need, just say the word!"
Chu Qian said respectfully.
Elder Wu also looked at Yang Tian with interest and asked, "Mr. Chen, what brings you here all the way from East Sea?"
"Looking for Emperor Taizong's tomb!"
Yang Tian hesitated for a mont but ultimately didn't ntion Wu Yue's disappearance.
"What?"
But Elder Wu let out a cry of surprise upon hearing about Emperor Taizong's tomb.
This cry of surprise ca subconsciously.
A significant figure like Elder Wu, who has seen all kinds of waves, wouldn't exclaim like this for a re Emperor Taizong's tomb, would he?
For a mont, Yang Tian was even more puzzled.
After realizing his gaffe, Elder Wu quickly said, "No problem, Emperor Taizong's tomb is indeed in West Capital. During the Tang Dynasty, many royal relatives were buried there. Which tomb are you looking for?"
Not only Elder Wu but Chu Qian also looked closely at Yang Tian.
"Emperor Taizong's tomb!"
Yang Tian said calmly.
Before disappearing, Wu Yue had left him a map indicating Emperor Taizong's tomb.
Although this tomb was under the custody of the cultural relics organization and had not yet been developed.
"Emperor Taizong's tomb?"
Although Elder Wu concealed it well, his eyes still betrayed him.
At this mont, Elder Wu's eyes revealed a look of shock.
And this gleam of shock was caught by Yang Tian.
Yang Tian sneered coldly in his heart. It seems Elder Wu ca here because of Emperor Taizong's tomb, and before Wu Yue disappeared, she also had drawn Emperor Taizong's tomb, so this suggests Elder Wu ca here to find Wu Yue?
Then why didn't Elder Wu clarify his purpose for coming here?
Could it be that Elder Wu had so other motives?
Looks like, to find Wu Yue, he still has to observe this Elder Wu more.
"Young master, are you planning to go to Emperor Taizong's tomb?"
Chu Qian looked at Yang Tian.
Yang Tian nodded.
"This Emperor Taizong's tomb is under the preservation of the cultural relics organization, the tomb has never been opened, and is fundantally not open to the public." Chu Qian paused for a mont and continued, "But if the young master has any instructions, feel free to co to !"
"Alright."
Yang Tian also knew that Chu Qian was a local leader in the West Capital area.
At the mont, the three continued discussing so topics related to Emperor Taizong's tomb.
During this, Yang Tian kept observing Elder Wu, noting his troubled expression. Yang Tian then stood up and said, "Madam Chu, please arrange a rest for ."
"Of course!"
Chu Qian imdiately led Yang Tian to a presidential suite.
Yang Tian had just been in the room for a short while when Ling Ying entered from the balcony: "Yang, are we heading straight to Emperor Taizong's tomb next?"
"No rush, I think there's sothing up with Elder Wu!"
Yang Tian then relayed everything about Elder Wu.
"You an the old man I bumped into was the clan leader of the Wu Family of East Sea?" Ling Ying was also puzzled upon hearing this: "He looked worried and quick to anger, he must be troubled by sothing. Could he also be here looking for Wu Yue?"
"I asked him, and he said no, but I think he might be connected to Wu Yue's disappearance!"
Yang Tian said.
"If he ca alone to West Capital, without his family's knowledge, it might indeed be related to Wu Yue's disappearance!"
Ling Ying also nodded.
"Let's follow him now!"
Earlier, Yang Tian purposely asked Chu Qian to take him back to the room to rest, hoping Elder Wu would leave the hotel sooner. Now, as Yang Tian used his Divine Sense to detect Elder Wu hurriedly leaving the hotel alone, he realized Elder Wu was hiding sothing.
Imdiately, Yang Tian and Ling Ying followed him quickly.
The two floated in mid-air, following Elder Wu.
Seeing Elder Wu board a taxi heading to the suburbs, arriving at a secluded place, he suddenly pulled out a spiritual tablet from his chest and knelt down in panic: "Father, you were supposed to be dead, why did you suddenly leave a ssage telling to find you in West Capital? Father, didn't you already die thirty years ago?"
Upon hearing this, both Yang Tian and Ling Ying frowned.
Elder Wu ca to West Capital not because of Wu Yue, but because his father called him?
Wait, Elder Wu's father?
Isn't he precisely Wu Tiandu, one of the Four Great Golden Spirit Guardians, whom Yang Tian is looking for?
