Chapter 210 Good Insight

Upon hearing this, Shen Luoyi frowned.

This result was completely unexpected. After all, the whole of Zhonghai is so small, how come the location of the ancient tomb still cannot be found?

"Continue to send more people, day and night, we must find it as soon as possible."

Coming to her senses, she immediately gave the order in a deep voice.

Faced with these words, the secretary seemed somewhat hesitant.

After hesitating for a while, she said helplessly, "President Shen, we've reached our manpower limit and can't send any more people. The Su family is keeping a close eye on us, and if we continue, they might notice."

Jiang Junyao put down her pen and gently rubbed her temples with both hands.

An unprecedented problem was looming before them, the deadline for the task assigned by their master was fast approaching, and on the other hand, they were being held back. This feeling was incredibly frustrating.

How to choose?

Just then, a strange voice suddenly rang out in the president's office.

"It seems Mr. Shen is in some trouble. Do you need my help?"

The sound seemed extremely hollow, as if it came from an unknown place.

The two people in the office were startled and looked up to find the source of the voice. When they looked in front of them, a figure had appeared there at some point.

The other person's face was obscured, as they were shrouded in a large black robe. With a slight step, a long, slender, and shapely white leg was revealed.

Shen Luoyi was startled, and her face became extremely wary.

The fact that this person could appear silently in front of him was enough to prove that the other party was quite powerful. As for the secretary next to him, she took a slight step back, maintaining a posture of being ready to strike.

At the same time, she casually placed one hand behind her waist, clearly indicating that she was ready to take action.

Shen Luoyi lowered her voice and asked coldly, "Who are you? What do you want here?"

The woman in black robes raised her hands, feigning innocence, and called out in a melodious voice, "Hey, Mr. Shen, there's no need to be nervous. I have no ill intentions towards you."

"State your purpose." Shen Luoyi remained vigilant.

"Oh dear, how heartless of you!"

The woman in the black robe casually joked before revealing her purpose, "President Shen, I won't beat around the bush. Actually, I'm here today to discuss a collaboration with you."

Hearing this, Shen Luoyi became even more suspicious.

She had never met the person in front of her before; this was their first meeting, so what was there to discuss about cooperation?

The woman in black robes noticed the confusion on Shen Luoyi's face and asked directly, "Weren't you just looking for the location of the ancient tomb, Mr. Shen?"

"The cooperation I'm referring to is naturally this matter. I believe that our cooperation will yield twice the results with half the effort."

In an instant, Shen Luoyi's pupils contracted, and her whole body tensed up, as if facing a formidable enemy.

She suppressed the panic in her words, keeping her voice extremely low, "Who are you? How do you know about the ancient tomb?"

This matter is extremely secretive; ordinary people would never know about it, let alone know that they are looking for an ancient tomb.

Could this guy be from the Su family?

Or perhaps it's someone from another force?

The woman in black robes chuckled, then said without any pretense, "Mr. Shen, I forgot to introduce myself. I am the Holy Maiden of the Holy Sect, 'The Other Shore Flower'."

"You seem to care a lot about the ancient tomb, but please don't worry. The matter of the ancient tomb is of great importance, and you are not the only one eyeing it. Various forces have also made moves."

Holy Church?

Shen Luoyi was somewhat taken aback, staring intently at the person in front of her, "I really didn't expect you to be the Holy Maiden of the Holy Church."

"But why did your Holy Church target me? If, as you say, many forces are eyeing the ancient tomb, I don't seem to be the best choice!"

This matter is of great importance. Since many forces have gathered here, her strength is naturally not among the top tier.

Since the Holy Church is choosing partners, why not choose someone stronger? Wouldn't that be more advantageous?

Shen Luoyi was cautious and quickly discerned the inconsistency in the conversation.

No human being has any reason not to think about their own interests. There must be something fishy about things that happen. How could the people of this Holy Sect be so stupid?

"Mr. Shen, I can't go into the details. Just tell me if you're willing to cooperate with our Holy Church."

The woman in the black robe smiled, remaining silent about the reason.

The more this happened, the more vigilant Shen Luoyi became. From the other party's insistent attitude, it was not hard to tell that something on their side had caught the eye of the Holy Church.

Moreover, this point seemed particularly important, and she couldn't afford to be careless, so she immediately shook her head.

"Forget it, the Holy Church is too powerful for me to be associated with." After careful consideration, Shen Luoyi still refused.

Nobody knows what these people are really up to.

Even if the ancient tomb is found, the local Holy Sect will likely stab it in the back, making it difficult to succeed due to being attacked from both sides.

"Mr. Shen, you are more cautious than I imagined."

"However, you're being a bit too cautious. Have you considered why, despite deploying a large number of people and almost searching the entire Zhonghai area, you still haven't found the ancient tomb?"

Beneath the black robe, a confident smile played on the woman's lips.

This statement resonated with Shen Luoyi, who was also pondering why. Given the effort she had invested, the ancient tomb should have been found long ago.

Even if you can't find it, there should at least be some clues, but there's absolutely nothing.

It's as if this ancient tomb doesn't exist in Zhonghai.

Upon hearing the woman in black ask this question, she instinctively inquired, "Why?"

The other shore flower smiled mysteriously, slowly walked to the huge floor-to-ceiling window, overlooking the city, "I wonder if President Shen has ever heard of a mysterious thing."

"This kind of thing can block all technological means and prevent detection. The only way to find it is through special methods."

Shen Luoyi was startled, and the two words almost slipped out, "You mean... an array?"

"The ancient tomb is within an array, which is why it hasn't been found... Yes, yes... That's the only possibility..."

If it weren't for that, she would have heard from them long ago.

These words were a wake-up call for Shen Luoyi, who couldn't help but feel a pang of regret that she had only realized this today, having wasted too much unnecessary manpower, material resources, and financial resources.

"Mr. Shen, you have great insight."

The other shore flower chuckled lightly, then continued, "Our Holy Sect also has research on formations. With a little effort, we should be able to find the location of the ancient tomb very soon."

"If Mr. Shen is willing to cooperate, we can share the benefits of the ancient tomb project, how about that?"

Hearing this, Shen Luoyi was somewhat tempted.

Indeed, it would be extremely difficult for her to break through the formation and find the ancient tomb with her abilities alone, but cooperation would offer some hope.

"What is the purpose of your Holy Church?"
