Chapter 38: Fanatic Fan

"Sister Xiaorou?" Lin Chao wore a puzzled expression.

"She's the girl who came with me to pick up things last time; she is certainly no Ordinary person.

She is the Head Senior Sister of the Sanji Martial Arts Hall, and in the future, this martial arts hall will fall into her hands," Zhao Xiaoyi chattered on incessantly.

An image of a burly woman immediately surfaced in Lin Chao's mind.

That woman—Lin Chao's previous guess was that she was either a martial arts practitioner or someone from the military.

Now it seems, it is true.

It's just that she is perhaps a bit too strong.

Regarding these things, Lin Chao understood very well.

The world he currently resides in is an Ordinary world.

Practicing martial arts is about practicing technique, practicing the sinews, bones, and muscles.

Things like the Extraordinary Person, who are corrupted, do not exist here.

"Brother Lin Chao, do you want to go together tomorrow?" Zhao Xiaoyi said happily.

Having one more person on the road won't be too boring.

"Okay." Lin Chao thought for a moment and agreed; it was on the way anyway.

"Plane or high-speed rail?" Zhao Xiaoyi asked.

"High-speed rail, I suppose," Lin Chao said after thinking.

With his current strength, if he fell from a plane, he would likely die.

Better to take the high-speed rail.

Even if an accident occurred, he would have means to deal with it.

Of course, Lin Chao knows that investigation data indicates planes are the safest mode of transport in the world, with the lowest probability of accidents.

Of course, once an accident happens, it is very likely to be total annihilation.

"Alright, I'll go tell Sister Xiaorou."

Zhao Xiaoyi took out her phone and sent a bunch of voice messages to Sister Xiaorou.

Soon, a look of delight appeared on Zhao Xiaoyi's face: "Brother Lin Chao, send me your ID number, I'll buy the tickets; there's a way to get seats together!"

"Mm." Lin Chao nodded, "How much is it? I'll transfer the money to you in a bit."

"Okay," Zhao Xiaoyi replied.

While operating her phone to buy tickets, she watched a livestream on her computer.

The livestream on the computer was still the excavation of the Dahuang Mountain Range.

During this period, the excavation progress of the Dahuang Mountain Range had increased rapidly, but all that was discovered were bones; there were no other findings.

Expert Liu Chengchao and the host, Wang Jiao, rarely appeared on screen.

The entertainment value of the livestream had decreased quite a bit.

But it still had quite a lot of popularity.

The camera of the livestream swept over the excavation scene; sometimes, the camera would also move to sweep over Liu Chengchao and the others.

"Look quickly, Brother Lin Chao!" Zhao Xiaoyi paused the livestream screen.

"What is it?" Lin Chao looked over.

In the livestream footage, three figures could be seen in the distance.

Two of them, based on their silhouettes, could be identified as Liu Chengchao and Wang Jiao.

There was also another one, who seemed to have a black veil draped over her face; her features could not be made out.

It should be a woman.

Lin Chao's gaze landed on this woman, deep in thought.

"See that woman in the black veil?" Zhao Xiaoyi said mysteriously, "This woman has appeared several times in the past few days, and every time she appears in the livestream, it's just a flash."

"And then?"

"Don't you find it strange? At a scene like this, to have a young woman wearing a black veil appear, it just feels like it reeks of something odd," Zhao Xiaoyi said.

Lin Chao nodded.

He agreed with Zhao Xiaoyi's assessment.

At this kind of excavation site, the people who come are generally either experts or some relevant staff members.

This woman in the black veil looked very special and seemed completely out of place at this excavation site.

"Do you know the identity of this woman in the black veil?" Zhao Xiaoyi asked.

Lin Chao shook his head.

Naturally, he did not know.

In fact, his level of attention toward the excavation situation at the Dahuang Mountain Range was not very high.

The only thing he cared about was whether Heize's corpse, or rather that Spear, was still there.

"According to the gossip I've picked up in small circles, this woman is from the Jia Family," Zhao Xiaoyi said mysteriously.

Clearly, she was a gossip-loving girl, and the kind who was very good at it.

"The Jia Family, what about them?" Lin Chao was puzzled.

"Have you heard of the thousand-year-old aristocratic families?" Zhao Xiaoyi's eyes lit up.

"I've heard of them," Lin Chao said casually.

Regarding the upper echelons, the general public always has many guesses and fantasies.

For example, the legendary Xia Group, a special forces unit that can kill a fierce tiger with a sliding tackle.

For example, the thousand-year-old aristocratic families that secretly control Daxia.

"This person, it is said, is a genuine member of a thousand-year-old aristocratic family!" Zhao Xiaoyi said, his gaze filled with excitement.

"And then?" Lin Chao yawned; he was not interested in these matters.

Regardless of whether it was a thousand-year-old family or not, as long as it didn't affect him, it was fine.

"Such a noble woman, to actually go to the Dahuang Mountain Range.

There are three theories circulating on the internet.

The first is that this woman is a hardcore history enthusiast;

The second is that this woman is a fanatical fan of Heize;

The third is that this thousand-year-old Jia Family might be related to the destruction of the Wolf Tribe.

Brother Lin Chao, which one do you think it is?"

Lin Chao thought for a moment: "The first one?"

"Why?" Zhao Xiaoyi was puzzled.

"Let's use the process of elimination. First, look at the third one. If the destruction of the Wolf Tribe were related to the Jia Family, then as a thousand-year-old family, the Jia Family would certainly not let such a merit go unclaimed.

As it turns out, no information at all has leaked out regarding the destruction of the Wolf Guard."

Lin Chao was talking nonsense.

In fact, the real reason was that he was the one who destroyed the Wolf Guard, and no one else was involved.

Knowing this, he naturally ruled out the third option.

"The second one is even more ridiculous.

If she truly comes from a thousand-year-old family, how could she be a fanatical fan of someone as ethereal as Heize?

Have you ever seen a powerful noble chasing after celebrities?"

"Brother Lin Chao, you're wrong about that," Zhao Xiaoyi said. "Doesn't the Queen of Fengcan Kingdom still chase after Jacks?"

Fengcan Kingdom, located in the West, is an ancient nation and can be considered in the first tier of the world's current powerful nations.

The Queen of Fengcan Kingdom chased after Jacks crazily when she was young, which became a well-known story.

Zhao Xiaoyi often follows gossip, so he is naturally very clear about such things.

"Jacks is a living person, Heize is a dead person; they cannot be compared." Lin Chao smiled.

Men are lustful, and women are lustful too.

Moreover, due to physical characteristics and other reasons, in a certain sense, women's lustfulness is even more intense than men's.

Especially for a woman of the level of the Queen of Fengcan Kingdom, taking a fancy to a handsome man like Jacks and having a brief affair is nothing.

"So what if he's a dead person?" Zhao Xiaoyi clearly did not understand the implication of Lin Chao's words. "You don't know how many fans Heize has now.

Nowadays, there are even martial arts schools claiming that their ancestors studied under Liu Tou and were fellow disciples of Heize.

A few days ago, the female CEO of Anhuai Biotechnology Co., Ltd. even said she was willing to pay three million to purchase a finger bone of Heize for her collection.

She also said that if any of Heize's calligraphy or paintings appeared in the world, she would be willing to pay hundreds of thousands."

"Cough, cough, there are really a lot of rich people." Lin Chao said casually.

He didn't expect his own finger bone to be so valuable.

"That's right!" Zhao Xiaoyi said smugly. "So, this woman in black gauze is very likely a fanatical fan of Heize."

Lin Chao smiled; these things had nothing to do with him.

"What about you?" However, Lin Chao still asked casually.

"I am a rationalist; I'm not that mindless.

Although Heize is very strong, I admire him very much.

However, modern people are too mindless and have deified him excessively.

I dare say, even if Heize were alive today, he might not necessarily be able to beat my Sister Xiaorou.

Of course, in other aspects, he is far superior to Sister Xiaorou.

Moreover, he Slayed the Wolf Guard and contributed a lot to the continuation of Daxia civilization; for this, I admire him extremely!"

Lin Chao smiled.

He had met that Sister Xiaorou of Zhao Xiaoyi's.

She was indeed a practitioner and had some strength.

Moreover, modern martial arts training methods are more scientific and pay more attention to impact.

If it were just a martial arts competition, Heize's fellow disciples—two of them might not necessarily be a match for Zhao Xiaoyi's Sister Xiaorou.

However, if it were a life-and-death struggle, Xiaorou would definitely lose.

After all, in that era, martial arts were all about killing techniques.
