Return of the Immortal Emperor Daddy novel Chapter 161

Chapter 161: Chapter 161 Cao Cao’s Heaven-Defying Sword

Upon arriving at Liuli Factory, the bustle of commerce from the shops lining the streets could be heard from afar.

"Everything is available here. Besides common items, there are Shuimu University diplomas, women, hackers, and more," Lin Zhan explained respectfully as he walked alongside Wu Tian. "Someone once committed murder and came here to buy an acquittal, and they actually got it. You could say Liuli Factory is the most remarkable place in Longjing."

"Do the officials permit such a place to exist?" Wu Tian asked, his brow slightly furrowed.

Since the founding of Dragon Country, its leaders have always been chosen based on talent and merit. It’s safe to say none of them have been incompetent. How could such figures tolerate the existence of this place? He didn’t believe for a second that Liuli Factory was without powerful backing.

"The Seven Saints of Dragon Country are also behind Liuli Factory," Lin Zhan said with a grave expression. "They are willing to act unconditionally for the head of state, but not without conditions of their own. As long as they don’t cause any major incidents, the officials turn a blind eye."

Wu Tian nodded. However, he knew that an entity like the Seven Saints of Dragon Country would inevitably have to be eradicated someday. Small evils will gradually grow into great evils, and minor selfish desires will ultimately become major ones.

"Besides, things like acquittals are all handled in secret. On the surface, no such shops exist," Lin Zhan said, leading the way until they finally arrived before a storefront.

Ancient Artifacts Shop.

It was a simple, plain-looking shop, truly unremarkable from the outside.

"Don’t be fooled by this shop’s simple appearance," Lin Zhan said gravely. "It’s the only one in all of Liuli Factory that sells certain antiquities. Things like Luoyang Shovels, Paratrooper Knives, Engineer Shovels, black donkey hooves... this is the only place in all of Longjing that sells them. Mr. Wu Tian, do you understand what this implies?"

The little one shook her head, indicating that this little cutie didn’t understand.

But Wu Tian understood. Even now, Tomb Raiding was an activity that attracted many people, yet this was the only shop in the entirety of Longjing that sold Luoyang Shovels, Paratrooper Knives, Engineer Shovels, and black donkey hooves. This meant the owner of this little shop was no simple character. No one else dared to compete for his business.

Wu Tian, Lin Zhan, and the little one walked in and were immediately approached by a servant asking what they wished to purchase.

There were many items on display, such as a chamber pot supposedly used by Yang Guang, a chair by Li Shimin, a pillow from Xiao Meiniang, and a quilt from Yang Guifei. Whether they were real or fake, who knew?

In Wu Tian’s view, the items here were a mix of real and fake. It was like "treasure hunting" online—sifting sand for gold. If you bought a fake, it was due to your own lack of judgment. The shop bore no responsibility.

"Is Mouse Tooth in?" Lin Zhan asked.

"And you are?" the servant asked, slightly taken aback.

He typically handled all the customers himself. The shop belonged to Mouse Tooth, but the man himself rarely came by anymore. In the past, Mouse Tooth and members of old tomb-raiding families frequently went on expeditions, facing countless dangers and brushes with death. He had seen the secret lands of Kunlun and faced the perils of Loulan.

Mouse Tooth was tired now. These days, he preferred to drink tea with old friends and chat about life. He only visited the shop once a year.

"Just tell him it’s about a Tomb Raiding matter," Lin Zhan stated solemnly.
