227 Another Level Up (1/2)
Firstly, his loot came in the tangible form of twelve million taels of silver banknotes and two million taels of gold banknotes. The sum was already substantial but this was only scratching the surface.
He had also found three thousand and seven hundred pieces of mystical stones, six hundred pieces of mystical crystals, three hundred and fifty-six pieces of fifth level mystical pills, seventy-five pieces of sixth level pills, eighteen pieces of seventh level pills, and even two pieces of top-grade eighth level mystical pills.
There were also one hundred and seventy-five pieces of exceptionally high-quality jade!
Yun Yang opened a secret door at one of the secret chamber’s corners and found an assortment of rare treasures, gems and treasured resources of heaven and earth filling the space inside.
It bewildered Yun Yang.
This Shen Yushi was only a vice head of hall for the seventh month in the Four Seasons Tower. Why did he feel like he had captured Supreme Lord Spring Frost himself? Could a mere vice head of the seventh month hall really possess such power and collect such a fortune?
It was frightening.
Since there were so many resources that they could not be completely taken away, Yun Yang gave most of those that he could not stow away to Emmie directly – it was an exception to let a certain seedling eat all it can!
”Ayaya…”
Emmie was ecstatic, absorbing the energy available greedily. It was only moments later that Emmie had already absorbed all the essence of the resources, leaving behind piles of powdered remains.
There were plenty of precious metals as well; other than thirty or forty pieces that Yun Yang could recognize, there were at least eighteen of them that he had never seen before.
”I’ll bring all these home, and see how Bai Yixue behaves. If he’s good then I’ll give them to him…” Yun Yang thought. ”If not…”
Finally, Yun Yang dug out all the Luminous Pearls that were embedded in the secret chamber’s wall. At the same time that the secret chamber fell into total darkness, Yun Yang left in his wind form together with his immense store of wealth.
This trip was fruitful indeed. Other than an immensely well fed Emmie that was almost always burping now, Yun Yang carried a huge sack on his back, slipping away into the night…
The sack was made by combining a few bedsheets in Shen Yushi’s home, only then could it contain all the loot to be taken away – those were the ones that Emmie could not finish.
Other than some of the resources being of such high quality that Yun Yang was reluctant to let Emmie have them, Emmie could not even finish the rest. However, these were all valuable resources to Yun Yang, regardless of their grade.
Just the one million taels of those banknotes could kill Supreme Lord Spring Frost; perhaps he could kill Mr. Nian with ten million taels?
One must be daring with his imagination – what if that was how success come about?
Luckily, it was already the fourth fragment of the night…
…
When Yun Yang returned home, Lao Mei and Fang Mofei hurried over to help when they saw what an embarrassing state Supreme Cloud was in, carrying a huge sack on his back like a thief. Great Swordsman Bai Yixue was indignant about petty matters like this, only observing their activities with his deific consciousness.
Yun Yang was delighted that he did not bother to come over, happy that the swordsman saw nothing.
If the Great Swordsman Bai did see how much resources there were that were compatible to his cultivation of swordsmanship, there was a likelihood he would shamelessly snatch them all? Yun Yang would not be able to fight him now!
One’s true intention was always concealed, one must always be on guard against others.
Yun Yang then asked Shui Wuyin to come over.
Seeing that Yun Yang carried so many things home, the latter knew right away that Yun Yang’s trip was smooth – he had succeeded!
”Take a look at these papers…” Yun Yang thrust about half a sack’s contents to Shui Wuyin and said, ”Check if there’s anything valuable inside.”
Shui Wuyin was not prepared for the sudden move, almost staggering by the motion. Just as he was about to speak, Yun Yang suddenly crowed with joy, ”My babies are back!”
”Meow!”
”Mewl…”
”Meoww…”
”Meow meow meow…”
Four snow-white fur balls that were actually palm-sized kittens charged over towards Yun Yang in delight.
Shui Wuyin realized at once that he had nowhere to sling his arm.
There was one kitten each on Yun Yang’s shoulders, one atop his head, one hanging on his waist, and what was that? There was another one swinging at his buttocks…
Yun Yang hugged them all in his embrace with a chortle. ”You’ve all worked hard this round… Come, come, let me prepare something tasty for all of you. I shall reward all of you handsomely… Let this raspy one handle the laborious work, we’ll go play!”
As he spoke, he left bringing the balls of fur along, completely at ease and graceful in his bearing.
Lao Mei and Fang Mofei were more than used to his whims, separating the loot Yun Yang brought home and moving them to the warehouse to store them properly; Shui Wuyin, on the other hand, was utterly speechless.
Such discourtesy! You have the cheek to order me around like a menial worker...
Despite his grumbling, he still carried the big pile of papers with unknown scribbles back to his room with a sigh, to meticulously check through each sheet.
