Chapter 2562: A Friend
The many Genesis Shamans gathered around the sculpture looked calm; there were even faint smiles on their faces. It felt unnerving.
Zu An squatted down to inspect the nearest Genesis Shaman’s body. “He's been dead for 12 to 16 hours.”
The Goddess of Wu Mountain was taken aback. “How do you know?”
Zu An replied, “His body has turned cold and stiffened. You can see marks that don’t disappear under pressure all over his body. These are signs that appear on those who have been dead for around twelve hours. Beyond that, the body will start loosening up.”
The Goddess of Wu Mountain was awed. “You’re well-educated, to know such information.”
“It’s all the wisdom of the predecessors.” Zu An smiled. There had been so many detective shows in his previous life; it wasn't that difficult to pick up bits and pieces of information. Besides, he had also picked up some things during his time as an Embroidered Envoy.
The Goddess of Wu Mountain murmured contemplatively, “I have underestimated the humans’ ability to learn.”
Sensing the Goddess of Wu Mountain’s amazed gaze, the Mermaid Queen puffed her chest up in pride, but she soon felt troubled once more. It’s a good thing that my lover is outstanding, but it’s also troublesome because he’s too outstanding, so he naturally draws in other women.
Zu An walked to the center of the crowd, where there was a Genesis Shaman who was standing instead of kneeling like the others. It looked as if he was about to bow down and pay his respects. This shaman was old, but he was more muscular than the others. His clothes were also visibly more opulent.
“He’s the Genesis Shaman race’s chieftain, Yanshan. I have met him before,” the Goddess of Wu Mountain explained with a pale face.
“The Genesis Shamans feel rather strong, as you mentioned.” Zu An could sense the valiance and strength of the Genesis Shamans even though they had already taken their last breaths.
