Chapter 997: The Clan That Vanished Suddenly
"Why do you want to know that?" The second disciple, Qing He, was slightly surprised when she heard that Li Xiaofei wanted the exact coordinates of the human mother and daughter. "That pair of human women is the most critical part of my experiment."
Li Xiaofei replied, "I want to observe them up close. If any changes occur, I might be able to draw inspiration from it."
"I see." After hearing that, Qing He hesitated briefly. In the end, she actually nodded and agreed, sharing the detailed coordinates of Si Kongxue and her daughter with Li Xiaofei.
These coordinates... could it be the ancestral land of that perfected evolutionary race? Li Xiaofei analyzed the coordinates carefully, surprise flashing across his face.
By now, he was no longer the ignorant newcomer he had once been. Through days of studying and exchanging insights with the disciples, his understanding of the Evolution Temple had already surpassed that of most royal elites.
"That's right. That’s the place," Qing He confirmed without reservation. "If one wishes to find the path to perfect evolution, one must go to the race that succeeded. Those two human women might be able to find the key to evolution in that location."
Li Xiaofei slapped his forehead. He should have thought of that place earlier.
"Thank you for telling me." He cupped his hands respectfully toward Qing He, then turned and left in a hurry.
Qing He watched his departing figure with a trace of anticipation on her face. This research project was her life’s work. It was no exaggeration to say that it had become the very purpose of her existence.
Yet, she made no effort to stop the new Ruò Iron Clan chief from approaching the human mother and daughter. The pair had shown no signs of the evolution she had long awaited. So Qing He hoped for a catalyst to emerge.
In her view, Tie Wushuang's arrival might just be that catalyst. She hoped that Tie Wushuang, observing from outside the perspective of a researcher, might uncover a clue hidden within the mother and daughter.
After all, evolution was, at its core, a sudden transformation of life’s essence brought about by a chain of coincidences. And one of those coincidences might very well be Tie Wushuang’s appearance.
