The secret chamber was not large, about twenty square ters.
But within this small secret chamber, there were two small mountains piled up.
One was a mountain of gold, and the other was a mountain of silver.
The gold mountain was built entirely of long rectangular gold bricks, standing three feet high, and the base was five feet wide. Even if there were hollows in the middle, the amount of gold was still considerable.
The silver mountain was even taller, almost entirely made up of silver ingots, standing seven feet tall and nine feet wide at the base.
The small secret room was almost completely illuminated by these two mountains of gold and silver.
Beside these two mountains of gold and silver, countless treasures, such as jewels, jades, and agates, were scattered around, radiating treasure light.
"Yue... Yue’er, are these mountains of gold and silver, and these jewels and jades, all ours?"
After a long while, Bai Yong ca to his senses and walked down from the stairs, asking excitedly.
"How much silver is this worth?"
Hee Honghua stamred nervously.
"Around three hundred thousand taels,"
Bai Ziyue glanced indifferently at the piles of gold and silver and said: "Gold and silver are sufficient for our needs."
For our Bai Family, the most important things are these."
As he spoke, Bai Ziyue pointed to a row of bookshelves opposite the gold and silver.
"These are martial arts secret manuals I have deliberately collected and kept. Among them, for pile skill training, there are entry-level Zen ditation Posture, Wild Bull Force, and Three Low Five Subrge Breathing Force.
In external forging techniques, there are the Five-Forged Golden Body, Iron Cloth Shirt, Vajra Lock Jade Technique. For internal cultivation techniques, there are Glazed Vajra Body, Tiger Roar Thunder Sound Internal Refining thod... As for inner power heart thods, I have also included the Six Yang Technique and Purple Mansion Creation Technique among them.
With these martial arts secret manuals, along with these treasures and properties, even if our Bai Family cannot rely on the Sunburst Gang in the future, we can gradually develop and beco a martial arts family.
In this way, we can establish ourselves firmly in Wujiang County.
Even if so turmoil arises, we can secure our place by relying on our martial arts skills."
Bai Ziyue said in a solemn tone.
As for the Vajra Indestructible Divine Skill and the Purple Qi Divine Observation Technique that were modified and fused from the attribute panel, he thought for a while and still didn’t take them out.
So things left behind may not necessarily be a good thing.
They might even lead to disaster.
In fact, for martial artists above the Inner Power Realm, the attraction of martial arts secret manuals, gold, silver, and jewelry is not significant.
Because such individuals often have their own martial arts inheritance and rarely switch to practicing other inner power heart thods. As for gold and silver wealth, they can obtain it easily and would not care much about it.
As for martial artists below the inner power level... Bai Ziyue is the Vice Gang Leader of the Sunburst Gang. Even if he leaves in the future, with this relationship, no one would dare to offend easily.
Moreover, the official position Bai Ziyue sought for Bai Yong is not useless and can serve as a deterrent.
"However, before leaving, it’s still necessary to inform the Gang Leader.
It’s to avoid any small troubles that might disturb my parents."
Bai Ziyue’s eyes flickered, and he made up his mind.
"Yue’er, are you hiding sothing from us?"
Bai Yong’s expression gradually beca serious.
Although he was not highly knowledgeable, Bai Ziyue’s series of actions naturally revealed sothing to him.
"Actually, I didn’t intend to hide anything from you."
Bai Ziyue smiled and said: "After you adapt to the new environnt and take over all the properties, I will be leaving."
...
Even though they were extrely reluctant, with Bai Ziyue’s determined mindset, Bai Yong and Hee Honghua gradually accepted that their son would soon go on a long journey, possibly never to return.
In the following period, Bai Yong and Hee Honghua also began to get busy.
One managed internal affairs, and the other handled external matters.
The various properties were systematically taken over by Bai Yong.
Even without much experience, with one or two experienced stewards hired by Bai Ziyue to help manage things, the progress was quite smooth.
As for the internal affairs of Bai Mansion, under the suggestion of another steward, over a dozen more people were added, giving the Bai Mansion a new look.
During this ti, Bai Ziyue naturally didn’t remain idle either.
Lacking enough soul energy, he was not in a hurry. Instead, he cald down for a rare mont, started organizing the various martial arts skills he acquired during the successive battles, and studied them earnestly, practicing diligently.
He did not aim to reach any specific level but sought to understand the essence, which was a significant gain for him.
Of course, the daily routine practice was also indispensable.
After cultivating the Purple Mansion Creation Technique to the Eight Extraordinary ridians Chapter, his cultivation speed beca even faster.
Inner strength accumulated like rivers converging, endlessly.
He estimated that his current cultivation speed was not much slower than when practicing the Sunburst Technique and other techniques.
It’s worth noting that the early-stage cultivation of this technique was far inferior to techniques like the Sunburst Technique.
"Indeed, this Purple Mansion Creation Technique is truly a profound technique that grows stronger over ti.
The further you advance, the faster the cultivation speed becos.
Perhaps, even without relying on soul energy, I might only need two to three years to break through the other six mystic ridians and reach the level of a first-class expert."
Bai Ziyue’s eyes brightened slightly.
Of course, if he had enough soul energy, he wouldn’t deliberately hold back.
"On the other hand, the Purple Qi Divine Observation Technique has noticeably slowed down after reaching the Eighth Layer.
If relying on my own efforts, it might take at least three to five years to break through to the Ninth Layer of Qi Refinent."
Bai Ziyue calculated slightly, unable to help but sigh.
This speed is actually not slow.
Independent cultivator Elder Wu, after a hundred years of cultivation, had only reached the peak of the Ninth Layer of Qi Refinent Stage.
He had lingered at the bottleneck between the Eighth Layer and the Ninth Layer for seven full years.
The three to five years for Bai Ziyue were already considered very short.
However, for Bai Ziyue, who had broken through three to four bottlenecks in just a few months, three to five years naturally seed long.
It’s also worth ntioning that although Bai Ziyue’s incident of sneaking into the Governnt Office had initially caused quite a stir,
many parties were apprehensive and did not dare to investigate thoroughly after hearing that the assailant was an expert at the Ninth Layer of Qi Refinent Stage.
As a result, it quickly faded into silence with the passage of ti.
Bai Ziyue, who had been keeping an eye on it, secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
In the blink of an eye, a month had passed!
At night, the sky was slightly cool, and a misty drizzle was falling from the void.
In a spacious courtyard, a tall man wielded a long sword, practicing rapidly.
The misty drizzle didn’t affect the man’s performance at all. The long sword swept through the air like rolling river waves.
Suddenly, a sword light shot out like a lightning bolt, expanding up to a distance of five zhang before gradually dissipating and vanishing.
On the distant lake surface, a carp leaped out of the water due to the rain, just in ti to et the sword aura.
Almost silently, the carp was cut in half, falling back into the lake with two light splashes.
The water surface shimred, and the sound was crisp and clear.
"Who’s there?"
At this mont, the man’s gaze swept towards a particular rockery like lightning.
"The Gang Leader’s skills have beco more refined."
Bai Ziyue leaped down from the rockery and spoke.
"Vice Gang Leader Bai? Why are you here at night?"
Jiang Tao frowned, looking at Bai Ziyue.
"Gang Leader, I’m here to bid farewell."
Bai Ziyue said aloud.
"Bid farewell? When are you leaving?"
Jiang Tao suddenly recalled the ti when he bestowed the Vice Gang Leader title upon Bai Ziyue and asked, his eyes flickering.
"Leaving tonight."
Bai Ziyue said, "In the future, I’ll need to trouble the Gang Leader to look after the matters of my Bai family."
"I said before, Vice Gang Leader Bai has been a great benefactor to and the Sunburst Gang.
I will naturally take good care of your family’s matters."
Jiang Tao assured with a serious expression.
"In that case, thank you. Goodbye!"
Bai Ziyue cupped his hands, turned around, and with a movent of his body, stepped into the void and drifted away.
In the blink of an eye, he had flown several hundred ters away.
"So it was him who sneaked into the Governnt Office."
Watching Bai Ziyue stepping into the void and drifting away, Jiang Tao’s pupils contracted, and his expression changed, he whispered.
In fact, he had already been suspicious before.
At that ti, the commotion was so big that he naturally conducted so investigations.
He knew that the assassin had entered the Governnt Office to get a golden paper from Mr. Yang Zhen, a first-class expert who was even stronger than he was.
Afterward, he rembered that his gang also had two golden papers locked in their treasure vault.
However, when he started to investigate, he quickly discovered the golden papers were missing.
And the person who had exchanged the golden papers was their Sunburst Gang’s Vice Gang Leader, Bai Ziyue.
Coupled with the fact that he had already noticed Bai Ziyue’s mysterious and powerful techniques, he naturally made a judgnt.
The reason he didn’t take action was that he wasn’t sure if the assassin was really Bai Ziyue.
If not, there would be no point in pursuing it further. At most, he would learn the whereabouts of the two golden papers from Bai Ziyue.
But if Bai Ziyue really was the assassin, not to ntion that Bai Ziyue had saved his life before,
just the fact that Bai Ziyue could easily defeat Yang Zhen, who was stronger than he, and then calmly escape from the County Governnt Office, was enough to make him wary and hesitant to act rashly.
So, he chose to remain silent.
"It seems that I really need to pay extra attention to his parents and take good care of them."
Confirming Bai Ziyue’s identity, Jiang Tao couldn’t help but smile wryly.
Suddenly, his expression changed, and he whispered with a twinkle in his eyes, "Just now, he didn’t hide anything in front of .
Stepping into the void and drifting away, how can ordinary people achieve that?
So, Vice Gang Leader Bai’s actions included so warnings?"
Thinking of this, Jiang Tao’s expression changed, gradually becoming sowhat unpleasant.
After thinking for a long ti, he sighed deeply and decided to compromise!
