Chapter 1030: Chapter 1028 Homeward Chapter 1030: Chapter 1028 Homeward Old Master Xiumeng indeed hurried over in a rush.
Once the matter here was settled and he had exchanged a few old words with President Cass, he didn’t even glance at the final report of the Ian incident and directly said his goodbyes and left.
And it was apparent, this trip was fruitless, unavoidably leaving him somewhat disheartened, but it also slightly relieved him as there was no need to take action against Cass, who was somewhat an acquaintance.
Of course, for Fu Qian, Old Master Xiumeng’s visit this time was quite significant.
Having safely passed this test, his current identity as an Academy Instructor had effectively received official recognition as a good citizen, making subsequent actions more convenient.
Moreover, today’s academic harvest was unexpectedly plentiful.
Not only had he successfully completed an academic examination, but the existence akin to the Divine Burial Mounds that Old Master Xiumeng mentioned was equally eye-opening.
Some previously chaotic pieces of information were almost connecting.
Of course, Old Master Xiumeng’s warning was also very clear, that place was an absolute taboo for the Night Watchman.
Once touched, there would be no discussion, only execution.
So, what could be a method to touch it again?
Watching Old Master Xiumeng’s retreating back, Fu Qian already had a rough idea of an approach he could try.
…
“President Cass, Professor Fu, Professor Lanaya.”
As Xiumeng left, Li Weixuan also came forward, his demeanor noticeably more relaxed.
“This time, thank you all for your hard work, the matter has finally come to a close.”
This man did not intentionally posture himself, revealing a sense of relief with his worries gone.
“Old Master Xiumeng’s visit was truly unexpected, I could vaguely sense he had another purpose, but with the current situation, there’s really no choice but to cooperate.”
“Don’t look at me, I don’t know more than you do, including the news of Emperor Yasui’s death.”
Seeing Li Weixuan staring at him while speaking, Yuan Fang beside him showed a wry smile.
“But regardless, isn’t it a joyous ending for all? Old Master Xiumeng just said it himself, you all don’t need to have any further concerns, and then Professor Fu…”
Yuan Fang turned to look at Fu Qian, his tone unexpectedly sincere.
“Honestly, although it’s our first meeting, I haven’t appreciated your actions previously, but this time… I am very grateful for your handling.”
“Not only did you kill Ian, but also what you did at the ball. Clearly, more than one person avoided an irreparable situation because of your help.”
“If there’s anything you need help with in the future, please feel free to ask.”
Did Brother Yuan Fang mean that he actually purified a few tainted hearts at that moment?
Realizing Yuan Fang was referring to the Decree Residue he had casually activated, Fu Qian was struck with reflection.
Was the merit points of this profile brushed too high?
However, it was evident that Brother Yuan Fang was full of sincerity… Fu Qian thought for a moment.
“Actually, I have a question I’d like to ask you.”
…
You really don’t know the first thing about politeness!
Seeing Fu Qian hitting the mark again, not only the audience was impressed, but Yuan Fang was momentarily stunned before bursting out laughing.
“Don’t mention it, as long as it doesn’t go against my principles, feel free to ask.”
“Don’t worry, it won’t.”
Fu Qian waved his hand, signaling not to worry.
“I just find your name a bit unusual, does anyone else in your family have this name?”
…What do you think?
As soon as these words came out, the spellbound listeners began to doubt their ears.
What kind of question is that? Would a family really name people like this?
“Uh… actually, there is.”
However, contrary to expectations, the equally shocked Yuan Fang hesitated for a moment before nodding.
Hmm?
The scene became even more surreal.
“My father is somewhat unconventional, even considered an oddity within our family.”
Faced with many gazes, Yuan Fang awkwardly explained.
“According to him, there was an ancestor in our family who had this name, and at a young age, he was recognized as a genius, an exceptionally talented individual. After hearing some stories about him, my father greatly admired him and insisted on giving me the same name despite opposition.”
There really was!
Initially thinking it was a far shot, faced with this unexpected gain, Fu Qian mulled over it for a moment.
“So, that person is no longer around?”
“To be precise, he has been gone for many years… it’s said that at the age of thirty, he felt the call of the highest will, went into seclusion to meditate, and ten days later successfully achieved Transcendence.”
“Transcendence?”
“Yes… The person vanished without a trace, leaving behind only a few personal belongings, nothing else.”
Your father really is unconventional… Aren’t you afraid you might also achieve Transcendence?
Facing Yuan Fang’s explanation, the audience was unanimously impressed.
“I see, thank you for explaining.”
Fu Qian also ended the conversation contentedly.
True to its reputation as a haven of knowledge, this visit to the Academy was indeed fruitful.
Although uncertain whether Yuan Clan’s transcended ancestor had any connection with the Prophet from Unseen Hillock, having this clue was sufficient; asking too much could arouse suspicion.
More information could be accessed through Chief Yuan’s data library anyway.
…
An emergency meeting that unexpectedly ended in a delightful atmosphere.
“Finally sorted out.”
Stepping out together, Lanaya stretched a supremely relaxed lazy stretch.
Unfortunately, this sentiment did not resonate, as Fu Qian had already walked a few steps ahead, showing no interest in chit-chat.
“What’s the rush?”
Considering her troubles were over, Lanaya’s curiosity was piqued, and she quickened her pace to satisfy it.
“To the lab.”
The lab?
Lanaya frowned slightly.
“Are you sure you’re headed in the right direction?”
“Of course.”
Professor Fu proudly reported the address of his new laboratory.
“President Cass really went all out!”
Lanaya was taken aback.
“You even saved on living quarters, so are you rushing back to rest?”
“An experiment… a dangerous experiment.”
Fu Qian shook his head, leaving a definitive answer behind and drifted away.
“On the path of truth, there’s no room for negligence.”
…
Unlocked and unrestricted.
Not long after, Fu Qian pushed open the somewhat heavy door in front of him and stepped into his laboratory.
The space beyond was quite sparse but was also clean and neat.

Yet Fu Qian didn’t take another look; he directly took off his mask.
[Warning–]
This reminder was only able to get two words out before Fu Qian picked up the [Affection Ring] and returned.
Intellectuals ought to innovate and be pragmatic, and the so-called experimental statement is of course not made up; as for the part about innovation–
The next moment, the Affection Ring shimmered, and everything before his eyes became blurry.
After acquiring it, Fu Qian first used the second effect of the Affection Ring, Homeward.
See if you can stop me? I’m calling for backup.
