My Fierce Tigress Wife - Chapter 219

Chapter 219: Li Shimin’s Tomb   Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios He would go and take a look to see what exactly was going on.

  Even if he couldn’t see through those mysteries at this point in time yet, surely, there wasn’t any problem in him going over to take a look, right?   Wang Hu had to admit that he couldn’t hold his curiosity back anymore.

  Because of his past life, as well as all the mysteries surrounding China in this world, he simply couldn’t really just ignore it.

  As he became stronger and stronger, he naturally also became less and less capable of suppressing his curiosity.

  Moreover, it didn’t seem like it would be dangerous this time.

The foreigners hadn’t met any danger even though they couldn’t enter the light.

They were merely unable to enter.

  Wang Hu didn’t want to miss such a great opportunity.

COM   The moment he talked to Silly Girl about it, she also showed some curiosity.

  However, as though something had just occurred to her, Di Baijun said disinterestedly, “I’m not going.

Someone needs to look after Big Treasure and Little Treasure.

”   She paused for a moment before her expression became slightly more serious.

Then, she said, “If you’re going, then you mustn’t act recklessly.

An existence like that isn’t something that a Third Realm cultivator can probe into.

  “That light pillar’s power forbids anyone that isn’t from China from entering.

It’s evidently capable of identifying people.

  “Although it didn’t hurt anyone from the other countries, it may not necessarily refrain from hurting species other than humans.

”   “Don’t worry.

I definitely won’t be reckless.

” The look in Wang Hu’s eyes turned serious as he promised.

  Di Baijun wasn’t that worried either; she was just giving him a reminder.

To be honest, she didn’t think that there would be any danger either.

At most, he just wouldn’t be able to enter.

  The reminder was just something she had to do, that’s all.

  Without saying anything else, Wang Hu set off.

  He headed straight toward the south.

Golden light streaked across the sky and vanished from sight before anyone even knew.

  As his objective wasn’t battle this time, Wang Hu didn’t need to focus too much on keeping himself in peak condition.

He activated the third stage of the Extreme Agility Movement of Dao and the second stage of Wind-Riding Divine Art straightaway.

  Due to the increase in his base combat power, an unprecedentedly terrifying burst of speed erupted.

  Wang Hu believed that there wasn’t even a single person on Earth that could see him at the moment.

The Third Realm cultivators couldn’t, and neither could so-called advanced technology.

  Even satellites with wide imagery coverage wouldn’t be able to capture any traces of him at all.

  That wonderful feeling that came from being so fast, as well as from the ability to take control of everything around him because he was so fast…   This was something that no one else could feel.

It felt awesome.

  It was as if he had the world in his palm.

  He didn’t skimp too much on his divine power.

In under an hour, Wang Hu could already see the yellow light pillar that reached right into the clouds from afar.

  He cast his invisibility special ability and disappeared from sight.

Then, he continued to approach the light pillar at a high speed.

  Tigers were skilled at hiding themselves from the start.

Everything they did was for that instant where they sprang into action.

  As he became stronger and stronger over the last few years, Wang Hu had long gone past the point of only practicing those few battle-focused special abilities.

  With a treasure trove of special abilities like Silly Girl around, needless to say, what kind of special abilities wouldn’t Wang Hu be able to get after he successfully courted her?   On top of that, they were all special abilities of the highest quality for the Third Realm.

  For example, the Tiger’s Spirit Golden Eyes and the restriction spells.

  Another example would be the invisibility special ability that he was currently using.

It was the same kind of special ability as the one that the Deep Abyss demons used when they had secretly entered Earth.

  However, Wang Hu dared say that the one he was using was definitely better than the one that they had.

  He could conceal his form, scent, as well as all of his energy fluctuations.

  With his current prowess, there weren’t many Third Realm cultivators on Earth who would be able to detect him, even if he was within the range of their divine senses.

  Therefore, he openly ignored the crowds and large numbers of Third Realm cultivators and arrived right in front of the light pillar in mid-air.

  He activated Tiger’s Spirit Golden Eyes to its limit.

Two roaring tigers could be faintly seen in his eyes.

They formed a captivating sight and looked extremely mighty.

  Wang Hu looked at the yellow light pillar’s internal structure.

An enormous tomb with a very mighty and imposing aura around it appeared within his sight.

  Its aura was as if eternal and never-changing.

  At the same time, it also gave him a dangerous feeling.

  Apart from that, he couldn’t see anything else.

Wang Hu didn’t see even a single person from the groups of people that had entered.

All he saw was the tomb.

  His brows involuntarily furrowed.

As expected, it was still a little too early for him to investigate these things at his current level of combat power.

  He couldn’t tell anything at all.

  He wasn’t that disappointed, however.

He reached out and touched the yellow pillar fairly cautiously.

  Upon contact, he felt as if the thin light pillar had turned into the toughest and sturdiest steel wall.

He pressed against it with a bit of force, but it didn’t budge at all.

  Curious, he started to apply more and more force.

However, nothing happened all the same.

Toward the end, he was already using all of his strength, but it was still useless.

He couldn’t do anything to the light pillar at all.

  From the looks of it, it seemed like he really couldn’t enter.

  He couldn’t help but feel somewhat disappointed.

Mixed feelings also flashed across his mind.

No matter what, he had ultimately still been human in his past life.

  However, these emotions lasted only for a moment before he recovered and went back to being puzzled and curious.

  What exactly was this?   He then tried a few other methods, but to no avail.

Wang Hu stopped his experiments and shifted his gaze to the people going in and out instead.

  From afar, he effortlessly checked the memories of someone leaving.

  Then, he frowned—his memories were empty.

  As though he hadn’t gone in at all just now, his memories were completely blank.

There wasn’t any memory of what had happened after he entered at all.

Had Wang Hu not personally seen him going in and out, even he himself would have been dubious whether it had even happened or not at all.

  He checked quite a few people’s memories successively.

All of them presented the same situation.

  Unable to find out anything despite trying various methods, Wang Hu could only give up.

This ultimately wasn’t something that he could get a clear idea of right now.

  He thought for a while and decided not to leave just yet.

He wanted to see what exactly would happen after the tomb’s sudden appearance.

  He disappeared in a flash and went to a mountain nearby, where he called Silly Girl and informed her of what had happened.

After telling her not to worry, he stayed there and quietly started to watch the place.

  The moment he did, it went on for more than a day.

  More and more people came over and went in and out.

Wang Hu didn’t discover much, but there was something that fairly astonished even him.

  Within the short span of a day after his arrival, he discovered that more than 400 Chinese Third Realm cultivators had actually arrived at the place one after another and subsequently left.

  There were more than 400 of them, and this didn’t even include the ones who were overseas, the ones who had already come and left in the last two days, and the ones who temporarily couldn’t come over due to various reasons.

  How many Third Realm cultivators did China have, exactly?   Even Wang Hu couldn’t help but be astonished.

The numbers were too great.

Moreover, so many Third Realm cultivators’ combat powers were improving by leaps and bounds.

This wasn’t normal.

In fact, it was too abnormal.

  China’s cheat was simply too massive.

  It was so massive that even he felt somewhat lost for words.

  That was rather shameless of them.

  Had it not been for his own diligence, talent, a virtuous wife like Silly Girl, and a bit of insignificant cheat that allowed him to reach his current level of combat power…   China would probably really have monopolized Earth by now.

They likely would already have pressured the other countries and species so badly that they wouldn’t even be able to catch their breath.

Some remaining alliances might even have already been swallowed up by China.

  Perhaps his existence was even standing in the way of China’s development and humanity’s unification on Earth.

  After all, with a mighty figure like him around, China would end up having misgivings and be forced to tone down their actions, no matter what.

  Even if they had already become invincible among the humans, it nevertheless wasn’t appropriate for them to adopt a stance that was overly aggressive toward the other human countries.

After all, it wouldn’t reflect well on them.

  If he didn’t exist, given China’s level of combat power…   Wang Hu couldn’t help but chuckle as he thought about it.

  He knew the country too well.

  As long as they were strong enough and as long as it really brought profits…   For this country and its people whose pride reached all the way to the very core of their being, there would only be one thought in their minds.

  ‘Mine, mine, all mine…’   ‘It’s only yours if I don’t want it.

’   They couldn’t get any bossier than that.

  A thought occurred to him in the midst of his musing.

  Was he being a little too slow by waiting so passively?   His existence itself was indirectly obstructing humanity’s unification.

  He would never officially establish an alliance with the humans unless humanity was unified and left with only one voice.

  If he continued to ignore the situation, it was hard to say how long more this would drag on.

  Should he give China a hint or two?   He hesitated for a moment… but ultimately suppressed the thought.

  It wasn’t necessarily true that China wasn’t already aware of certain things.

It was likely that they just couldn’t be completely sure of how he felt, that was all.

  Even if they were, they still had to be reserved toward things they should hold reservations with.

  After all, they were two different species.

  This wasn’t something that he could eliminate just by saying a few words.

  In fact, it might even be counter-effective if he said too much.

  Moreover, he didn’t feel that he was wiser than those sly old foxes among China’s senior officials.

  It was best for him to just wait quietly instead.

  Come to think of it, the fact that China held reservations toward certain things and understood that they should tone down their actions was also something positive for him.

  Should they thoroughly lose their reservations and stop toning down their actions altogether, oftentimes, they would also end up losing their sense of rationality along with it.

Nobody would be able to predict what would happen by then.

  Be it humans or other species or whether they had human intelligence or not…   It would never go wrong for one to keep a sense of fear and reverence within themselves.

  Fear and reverence made one rational.

Without them, one would only go down the path of destruction.

  No matter how firmly Wang Hu believed that he was invincible, he had always maintained a sense of fear and reverence within his heart.

  This was fear and reverence toward his arrival in this world, and fear and reverence toward the knowledge that there were people stronger than him out there.

  This was fear and reverence toward life and death, as well as…   In any case, after thinking through a lot, Wang Hu chose to watch the situation quietly.

  He cultivated while keeping an eye on the tomb.

  Wang Hu suddenly noticed something.

  Some Chinese experts seemed to be setting up an array formation around the tomb.

  He carefully investigated what they were doing.

A short while later, a rather strange expression formed on his face.

  They set up a security alarm array formation.

  As long as the intruder wasn’t stronger than the Third Realm, the array formation would be able to emit a warning.

No one would be able to get past it.

  He laughed and shook his head.

True enough, they had really lived up to his expectations.

  Despite possessing such abilities, they hadn’t publicly announced it at all.

  This led to Russia being constantly invaded by the Deep Abyss.

The other alliances also experienced similar things.

  Even if it might lead to certain terrifying consequences, China had nevertheless stubbornly kept it a secret and refused to share it.

  As for why they had done that, wasn’t it obvious enough?   They continuously weakened the other alliances until these alliances eventually…   Those benevolent-looking fellows were the sly old foxes that were truly in control of the chessboard.

  Without anyone realizing and as though going along with the flow, they had set up one trap after another.

  Who knew exactly how many traps they had openly and secretly set up for the other alliances?   In fact, who knew how many traps they had set up for him?   Thoughts flashed past his mind.

However, after laughing about it, he wasn’t really concerned at all.

  The weak were prey for the strong—this was a never-changing truth.

  China was setting up traps, but the other alliances were also setting up traps.

Similarly, so was he.

  Earth was in a perilous situation at the moment, and everyone was indeed huddling together for safety.

However, it was also very normal for everyone to harbor their own selfish thoughts.

  As senior officials of a large force, if they didn’t even harbor such selfish thoughts, then one could only say that they weren’t suitable to be senior officials at all.

  He would instead be disappointed if China wasn’t this scheming.

  How could a country as unmotivated and unambitious as that be worthy of forming an alliance with him?   Reality was simply this cold and cruel sometimes.

  A pure and kind person would only be someone else’s fighter and pawn; they would never become the person in charge of the game.

  This remained true no matter how strong they were.

  Had he not always held a cold and arrogant attitude toward others and had it not been for his rationality…   He, too, would have been nothing but a pawn to the human alliances.

  After laughing, he retreated further away with a flash.

  Although his invisibility special ability was pretty good, he wasn’t confident that he could hide from their security alarm array formation.

  Even though he didn’t mind China discovering his presence, he wasn’t fond of creating unnecessary trouble either.

  Besides, he had become interested in the security alarm array formation.

  Furthermore, China undoubtedly still had a lot of good stuff.

It was just that they had strictly kept them under wraps for now.

  He would have to probe them for it if the opportunity arose in the future.

He wouldn’t be happy until he got some, too.

  He secretly mused to himself as he continued to wait.

  In the blink of an eye, another two days had passed.

With the tomb as the center, the number of people coming to and fro constantly increased.

  Even though China had controlled the spread of the news on the Internet, they hadn’t been very strict about it.

Through word of mouth and the spread of the news via other communication devices, it was already enough to tempt more and more people into coming over.

  In this increasingly dangerous world, there were scores of people among the very well-protected Chinese who were awfully curious and bold, especially those who thought highly of themselves and wanted to be a hero of their own story.

  Besides, there wasn’t anyone in the world who wouldn’t want to have a serendipitous encounter.

As such, more and more people naturally gathered.

  On this day around noon…   Hordes of people were queuing when all of a sudden…   An explosion that seemed to shake even the heavens and earth broke out.

The yellow light pillar emitted blinding light and started to rapidly shrink.

  Everyone inside was expelled from within for some reason.

  A huge uproar went through the crowd.

  Wang Hu, who had been quietly waiting, instantly activated his Tiger’s Spirit Golden Eyes to its limit and looked over.

  The next moment, the yellow light pillar vanished completely and fully entered the enormous tomb.

  As though a hologram, the enormous tomb also started to shrink rapidly.

  All of it entered a figure that shone with yellow light.

  An even bigger uproar went through the huge crowd.

  There were people who were astonished, curious, indignant, and so on.

  Wang Hu naturally didn’t care about those people.

His pupils had contracted intensely during the moment when the yellow light pillar entered the tomb and when the tomb appeared clearly.

Great astonishment arose within him.

  ‘The Tomb of Li Shimin1‘!   Although the tomb had entered the person very quickly, Wang Hu would never make a mistake.

  Those were exactly the five words inscribed on the tombstone.

  How could it possibly be Li Shimin?!   Was this a coincidence?   Wang Hu dispelled the thought the moment it formed in his mind.

  How could it possibly be a coincidence?   How could there possibly be so many coincidences in the world?   This was definitely no coincidence.

  He subconsciously clenched his fists tightly.

Li Shimin…   Although he had already formed a vague guess beforehand—after all, the Era of Severance had existed…   When he truly witnessed it for himself, he nevertheless couldn’t help but find it incredible.

  It was that Li Shimin!   Wang Hu gradually deduced a lot of things in his mind.

  His emotions uncontrollably spread to the outside.

  It was only after a long while that he finally calmed himself down a little.

However, his brows were still drawn together.

  He closed his eyes for a moment.

Then, with a flash, he vanished from sight.
