But if it were Qin An saying this, Emperor Xuanwu would believe it. After all, many things up to now had been accomplished relying on Qin An, and coupled with Qin An’s title as a savior, sending him to handle this matter might produce miraculous results.
Qin An thought for a moment, then turned and left the Imperial Study.
He needed to hurry and smooth this matter over, then go back and continue cultivating his professional proficiency.
Moreover, he had a feeling that on this trip, he might discover a heaven-shaking secret.
As for what that secret actually was, he would have to personally go there before he could find it.
After Qin An left the Imperial Study, the room once again fell silent.
Emperor Xuanwu took a deep breath and set the memorial aside, as if he had laid down a thousand‑jin burden, then continued dealing with other state affairs.
...
At this very moment, when Qin An rose and flew toward Wuyun City, the many cultivators present, including the many experts in the capital of the Daqian Kingdom, all fixed their gazes on that figure.
They all knew very well that every time Qin An emerged from seclusion, he would stir up some earth‑shaking event, and these events were all good things for the Daqian Kingdom.
Therefore they were all filled with anticipation, wanting to see just how big a wave Qin An would cause this time.
Qin An was currently flying at high speed.
After reaching the Celestial Human Realm, his speed had increased tremendously, and his flight had become extremely fast.
As he sped forward, the scenery before his eyes rapidly receded backward.
Wuyun City was not far from the capital. Though it was a prefectural city, it was extremely prosperous.
Sometimes things were just like this: the closer a place was to the capital, the more prosperous it was; the farther it was from the capital, the more remote and impoverished it became.
The capital was like the very center of the entire Daqian Kingdom, radiating its prosperity outward in all directions.
Among the prefectural cities close to the capital, Wuyun City was one of the more flourishing.
Yet at this very moment, in the Evil Extermination Bureau of Wuyun City, Zhao Hai, the top official in charge there, had his brows tightly knitted.
The reason for his furrowed brows was entirely because the Dragon Vein of Wuyun City was weakening at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Along with the weakening of the Dragon Vein, some disturbances had recently appeared in Wuyun City.
These disturbances did not come from monsters wreaking havoc, nor from any Forbidden Area, but rather from certain natural disasters.
These were natural disasters; though not large, they had more or less caused some losses to the common people.
The prefectural government office had also been kept endlessly busy because of this matter, to the point of being utterly overwhelmed.
As the top official of the Evil Extermination Bureau here, Zhao Hai had also been doing his utmost to investigate, yet even if Your Majesty personally came, they still could not find any clues of value.
Zhao Hai understood very clearly in his heart that if they continued to let this Dragon Vein weaken, then even without any Heavenly Demons descending, they themselves would probably suffer great misfortune from the Dragon Vein’s decline.
But he felt extremely powerless, since this was something even Your Majesty could not resolve, let alone them.
Just as Zhao Hai was at his wits’ end, the sound of footsteps suddenly rang out.
Zhao Hai was slightly stunned, then lifted his head, his brows knitting tighter.
"Who is it?"
He had already given orders that unless it was something particularly important related to a way to resolve this, no one was to disturb him, so as not to disrupt his train of thought.
But now someone had suddenly come in, and Zhao Hai felt there might have been some new development.
The one who pushed the door open and entered was a member of the Evil Extermination Bureau.
Just after he stood still, he cupped his fists toward Zhao Hai and said, "Reporting to Mr. Zhao, Mr. Qin has arrived."
There was a trace of excitement in his tone, as if the heavy pressure that had weighed on his heart for so long had been completely lifted at this moment.
This time it was not only Zhao Hai who felt a tremendous pressure; all the cultivators of Wuyun City felt the same.
And now that the unfathomable Mr. Qin had arrived, that pressure immediately became much lighter.
"Quick, quick, quick, let Mr. Qin come in!" Zhao Hai immediately stood up. "Forget it, I’ll personally go out to welcome Mr. Qin."
He had no other choice; they were already at the end of the road, and Qin An’s arrival was undoubtedly like a powerful tonic, making his side feel as if they had just been injected with chicken blood.
But before he could bow and pay his respects, Qin An had already walked over at an unhurried pace.
"No need to greet me, I’m already here."
After Qin An entered the room, the excitement on Zhao Hai’s face grew even stronger.
He hurriedly poured a cup of tea and offered it to Qin An with both hands.
Even as the top official of the Evil Extermination Bureau in this prefectural city, facing Qin An he still maintained an incomparably respectful attitude.
Qin An sat down slowly, took a sip of tea, and then said succinctly, "Where is the place where the Dragon Vein is weakening? Take me there now."
He had come precisely to resolve this matter, so he did not want to waste any time. He only wanted to finish the job quickly, so that he could return to continue cultivating, raise his professional proficiencies, and temper both of them to the level of qualitative change.
Zhao Hai immediately nodded and said, "Alright, Mr. Qin, I’ll take you there at once."
As the top man here, presiding over many affairs, he naturally also wanted to resolve this issue as quickly as possible.
If it wasn’t resolved, he too was utterly overwhelmed, so he did not waste any time.
The two of them immediately left the room and walked off in a certain direction.
...
A great river cut through the wilderness. This river was extremely wide and vast; if an ordinary commoner fell into it, they would be submerged within just a few moments.
And this river, even someone extremely skilled in swimming would frown here.
Because the current was simply too rapid.
Two figures descended from the sky and landed right on the riverbank.
Qin An looked at the river before him and slightly furrowed his brows, then turned and asked, "Has this river always been this turbulent?"
Zhao Hai shook his head and said, "It wasn’t like this. In the past this river was very calm, and everyone in the city relied on it. Quite a few people even fished here."
"But Mr. Qin knows that once the Dragon Vein shows abnormalities, it will trigger natural and man‑made disasters, and the place where such disasters appear first is where the Dragon Vein first dries up."
"When the Dragon Vein began to dry up, this river was the first to change. It became turbulent, and the water level even rose, forcing the surrounding commoners to temporarily move away."
"Those commoners who lived by fishing here also lost their livelihood for the moment, and have been temporarily relocated by the people from the Government Office to other places, to ensure they won’t suffer casualties because of this disaster."
Qin An nodded. Dealing with it from the source was only natural.
Everything had to have a source; only by handling it at the source could things be properly resolved.
The Dragon Vein was no exception.
Qin An asked again, "What methods did you use to explore this place?"
Zhao Hai did not conceal anything. He described in full the methods they had used, including the way Emperor Xuanwu had come here, without leaving anything out.
After Qin An finished listening, his frown deepened.
He knew that many of these methods were complicated, but they were also the most basic means of probing the changes in a Dragon Vein.
Qin An thought about it. If it were him, he would probably also use these methods. However, he did not stop; instead, he circled continuously along this river.
As he walked, he kept extending his True Qi and Power of Divine Soul, using this method to sense the changes in the Dragon Vein.
In fact, Emperor Xuanwu and the others had already used this method before, but Qin An still wanted to try again, because this was the method he had used in the past as well.
And with the Dragon Vein matching his profession, plus his identity, it might have a miraculous effect.
Zhao Hai simply followed behind Qin An, not leaving his side even half a step, the curiosity in his eyes hard to conceal.
He very much wanted to know whether Qin An would be able to perceive the abnormalities in the Dragon Vein.
The two of them walked along the river for about the time it took to burn a stick of incense, when Qin An suddenly stopped.
"So it’s here."
At this moment, through his profession, his own identity, and his senses, Qin An discovered the abnormality in the river.
And the abnormal spot was right here.
Qin An could feel that a weak golden Dragon Vein was currently lying dormant beneath his feet.
And this golden Dragon Vein was like an old man, its life slowly ebbing away.
