Chapter 163 Strange Movement!
Chapter 163 Strange Movement!
"Something's happened in the Kunlun Mountains!"
Qin Xiao's voice came through the receiver.
There was an unusual solemnity about it.
Zhang Yan raised an eyebrow slightly.
He sat up straight, and his previous lazy and relaxed posture vanished instantly.
Explain yourself.
His voice was calm and brief.
"I don't know the specifics either."
Qin Xiao quickly replied, "It's top-secret intelligence from within the military."
"All we know is that this morning, deep within the Kunlun Mountains, at the prehistoric site where 'Stardust Steel' was discovered, a sudden and intense energy fluctuation was detected!"
"That energy was very strange, unlike any energy we know of."
"And it's still getting stronger!"
Prehistoric relics?
Intense energy fluctuations?
Zhang Yan narrowed his eyes slightly.
He remembered the "Obsidian," which was the "Stardust Steel" that Qin Xiao had mentioned.
The remnant that could give birth to such a transcendent divine object is now showing signs of unusual activity.
Is something extraordinary about to be born?
"This is not my responsibility to handle."
Qin Xiao's tone became somewhat strange.
"But my dad personally ordered me to make this call to you."
"They're asking if you'd be interested in going to take a look together."
Upon hearing this, Zhang Yan understood.
Qin Changfeng, that old fox.
This is treating him as a free "expert consultant".
However, he was not averse to it.
Some were even tempted.
There's still some time before university starts.
I'm just idling around anyway.
Going to Kunlun Mountain for a visit would be nice.
Perhaps there will be some new discoveries.
and……
He glanced at the seemingly ordinary digital watch on his wrist.
【Ding! 】

[Failure penalty: None.]
really.
The communication system responded.
It seems I absolutely have to go to Kunlun Mountain.
How many people are going this time?
Zhang Yan asked.
"Including the two of us, there are seven in total."
Qin Xiao replied.
"Besides you and me, the other five people are all members of the military's top special forces teams."
"From the 'Dragon Scale' Special Operations Brigade."
Zhang Yan nodded.
It seems this operation is of a very high level.
Even the "Dragon Scales," an elite force that only exists in legends, has been mobilized.
"How's it going, Brother Yan?"
Qin Xiao asked cautiously, "Are we going?"
"go."
Zhang Yan's answer was concise and to the point.
He also wanted to find an opportunity to test the true power of the White Tiger.
That prehistoric site was undoubtedly the best testing ground.
If we really encounter some insurmountable danger.
He wouldn't mind letting those so-called "dragon scales" see what a true dimensional reduction attack really is.
"Very good!"
Upon hearing this, Qin Xiao was so excited that he almost jumped up from his chair.
He knew Yan-ge would be interested!
With Brother Yan around, this mission will be a piece of cake, won't it?
"Brother Yan, let's meet at the military airport in the western suburbs of Beijing at six o'clock tomorrow morning."
"At that time, there will be a special transport plane to take us there."
"it is good."
Zhang Yan responded and then hung up the phone.
He put down his phone and lay back down in the rocking chair.
Nie Qingcheng, who was standing to the side, had already moved closer without anyone noticing.
Her breathtakingly beautiful peach blossom eyes were staring at him without blinking.
"Going to Kunlun Mountain?"
She asked.
"Um."
"Is it dangerous?"
"have no idea."
Zhang Yan spoke the truth.
Nie Qingcheng's brows furrowed instantly.
She reached out and grasped Zhang Yan's hand tightly.
"You are not allowed to go."
Her voice carried an undeniable air of dominance.
And, a barely perceptible plea.
She is not afraid for Zhang Yan to face any business enemies.
Because in that field, she had enough confidence to clear all obstacles for him.
But Kunlun Mountain is different.
It was a place full of unknowns and dangers.
It was a realm that neither her power nor her wealth could reach.
She didn't want him to take any risks whatsoever.
Zhang Yan looked at her, and couldn't help but find it somewhat amusing to see her so nervous.
He took her hand in his, placed it to his lips, and kissed it gently.
"rest assured."
"I'm just going to take a look."
"Everything will be alright."
His voice was gentle yet powerful.
It possesses a peculiar, soothing magic.
Nie Qingcheng looked at him, at his clear and confident eyes.
The anxiety and unease in my heart were gradually soothed.
She knew she couldn't stop him.
This man appears to be gentle and unassuming.
But deep down, he has a stronger sense of self-determination than anyone else.
Once he makes a decision, no one can change it.
"That……"
She was silent for a moment, then slowly spoke.
You must be careful!
She knew that even if she went, she would only be a burden, so she didn't say "take her with you".
He reached out and pulled her into a tight embrace.
"it is good."
He whispered in her ear.
I promise you.
Nie Qingcheng leaned against him, feeling his strong heartbeat.
And that's how it was settled.
That afternoon.
Zhang Yan then began preparations for his trip to Kunlun.
He went to the mall and bought the top-of-the-line outdoor jacket and hiking boots.
They also prepared some high-calorie compressed food and first-aid medicines.
Even though the system exists, these things are unlikely to be used.
However, it's always better to be prepared.
Everything is ready.
Zhang Yan looked out the window at the setting sun.
His eyes sparkled with anticipation.
Kunlun.
That mysterious place, known in Chinese mythology as the "Ancestor of Ten Thousand Mountains".
What kind of secret is hidden?
He was curious.
