Pretending To Be A Boss-Chapter 567 - 21: Major Events of the Song Dynasty and Minor Events of the Tang Dynasty
Dealing with existences similar to oneself, the more meticulous the plan, the more it actually restricts the strategies one can choose.
Tang Xian's plan was far from complex; it merely involved some unconventional elements, which came with certain unstable factors.
After seeing off Dr. Shang Lu and Zhong Xiuxiu, he did not return to Fortress Thirty-Nine to observe the outcome.
Because whatever the outcome, it would benefit him.
However, before implementing the plan, he had to find a place.
The Divine Seer Fortress.
Each fortress is connected by unique passages.
Only the Divine Seer, the fortress used to cultivate the Order's child, is hidden and inaccessible by any passage.
In the world map known to humans, information about the Divine Seer Fortress cannot be found.
This mysterious fortress is known to only six people.
Tang Xian was one of them.
But now, even he could not travel to the Divine Seer.
Because the method to reach the Divine Seer involved the use of a special portable teleportation fracture.
Teleportation between current worlds could bring catastrophic destruction to the body and was extremely unstable, hence it could only transport inanimate objects.
The Divine Seer was different, the fortress seemed like a place that existed in a special world. Nevertheless, ordinary teleportation fractures could not mark that location.
Only a few special teleportation fractures could reach it. But only the Order's child had such special teleportation fractures.
This was also why Tang Xian suspected his parents were once the Order's children.
Tang Xian did not possess such a fracture; when Xi He died, he tore Xi He apart and found no valuable relics.
Tang Xian was currently crouching at the spot where he used to fish in the lakeside pavilion.
He held a tree branch in his hand and made random strokes on the water's surface, like a child with nothing to do caught in some odd contemplation.
He stared at the water, lost in thought, with no pattern to his movements.
After a long while, he stood up, judging by the position of the sun, it was already dusk.
He shook his head, thinking of the pavilion above the great lake. Wasn't it just like the "Divine Seer" of this pond:
"Indeed, now is still not the time to go. But I can invite them out."
After reviewing all the details in his mind, Tang Xian was confident the great battle that would follow the turmoil in the human world would not deviate too far from his expectations, and he opened the teleportation fracture—once more returning to Fortress Thirty-Nine.

The fourth level of Fortress Thirty-Nine was still in a state of commotion.
Everywhere in the world with internet access was watching the live broadcast from the ninth level at the first opportunity.
For those at the pinnacle, this meant the imminent reshuffle of the first chair in the human world.
For most residents of the Pyramid, perhaps they were still lost in the pleasant illusion that a small step on the ninth level was a giant leap for human civilization.
Tang Xian thought to himself how much they revered the Knight of Judgment now would be proportional to their anger later.
This was not necessarily a bad thing.
His return to Fortress Thirty-Nine was not related to the election between Song Que and Li Wanye.
Tang Xian arrived at Hua Science Academy.
The scientists here seemed a bit slow to catch on to the changes around them, not realizing that Zhong Xiuxiu and Dr. Shang Lu had left never to return.
He went to the front desk of the Hua Science Academy, deciding to try his luck, suspecting that the coming of the Eye of Nature to the Hua Science Academy would be an event worthy of record.
The receptionist girl remembered Mr. Tang Jikede.

As one of the witnesses at Dr. Shang Lu's wedding, his bizarre speech had left an impression.
Above all, he had money.
"Ah, are you here to see Dr. Shang Lu? He is in his office."
The receptionist girl was very enthusiastic. The front desk of the Hua Science Academy was not busy, and her phone was also streaming the live broadcast about the ninth level.
Yu Xiaozhe and Lin Sen made this exploration of human civilization very sensational. It was also the first time in the history of the Pyramid that the opening of a new layer was shared with the whole world in real-time.
"Not at all, lovely lady, this time I am inquiring whether the Eye of Nature delegation has ever visited the Hua Science Academy. You know, I always enjoy dealing with these bright young minds."
"Yes, they have! Just a moment, please!"
Tang Xian appeared patient, having little hope for this matter.
But soon, the receptionist girl surprised him with unexpected good news.
"Found it. They did come here. And this time it was specifically to interact with our Hua Science Academy, they are staying at the North Riverside Street International Hotel."
"Thank you very much for your help. They haven't left?"
After all, more than a month had passed, especially since Xi He had died not long ago, Tang Xian didn't expect Ju Mang to be able to sit tight.
"No, it seems they stayed because of some relationship with Dr. Shang Lu."
The great sacred tree of Zu Dun.
Tang Xian's first thought was this.
Even if Dr. Shang Lu and Zhong Xiuxiu were tight-lipped, Ju Mang might have discovered something.
But his expression remained calm, as if everything made sense.
"Thank you very much for your help."
Tang Xian left slowly, heading towards the location of Ju Mang.
Finding Ju Mang so "coincidentally" without going through Konstant was lucky.
Tang Xian did not believe in luck; he could only think that perhaps Ju Mang was also waiting for someone.
As Tang Xian made his way to the North Riverside International Hotel, the meeting of the power holders on the eighth level was also coming to a close.
...
...
The eighth level of Fortress Thirty-Nine.
The scene inside the great hall was actually more shocking than the outside; laymen watch the excitement, while professionals watch the technique.
