After searching around Wu Qiulan’s hometown, Qin Yun still found no success.

"Forget it, being able to increase the balance by ten billion and shorten the time for the fourth-level Wealth Gathering Array to open is already quite good. Being too greedy isn’t good."

Helpless, Qin Yun could only return to Jinling.

In the car, Qin Yun was still thinking about the whereabouts of other fragments.

But the world is so vast, to search for them, place by place?

He estimated that even if he spent a lifetime, he wouldn’t be able to set foot in every corner of the world.

Buzz...

Just as he was thinking about this, a call suddenly came in. He glanced at it; it was Yu Leyao calling.

"Qin Yun, have you returned from Hang City?"

Qin Yun had previously said he went to Hang City for something important.

"Yes, I’m back," Qin Yun said with a smile. "Did you and your grandmother return from the old house?"

Professor Zhao and Yu Leyao didn’t used to live in their current community but in another place.

Of course, this place was also in Jinling.

In the afternoon, when he went to Hang City, Yu Leyao and Professor Zhao also returned to their old house.

"Yeah, we did."

Yu Leyao said with a grin, "I found some childhood things and brought them back."

"Childhood things? I remember I collected a ton of marbles when I was a kid, still stored in bottles," Qin Yun laughed.

Marbles were the dream of so many children in that era.

"Hehe, I’ll show you what I collected tomorrow. Grandma said you came at noon and didn’t eat, you should come for lunch again tomorrow," Yu Leyao said.

At noon, when Yu Leyao’s parents arrived, Qin Yun saw the awkward situation with Yu Jiancheng and Feng Min and found an excuse to leave.

"Sure, I’ll come over tomorrow," Qin Yun said with a smile.

...

The next day quickly arrived, and Qin Yun came to the community where Yu Leyao lived. 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝕨𝕖𝗯𝚗𝚘𝕧𝕖𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝕞

"Hmm?"

Just as he approached the community, Qin Yun suddenly looked toward a place.

Buzz...

The Wealth Gathering Array Source suddenly appeared in his mind, then started to pulse.

"Another fragment appeared?" Feeling the pulse, Qin Yun was stunned, seemingly not believing his sensation.

Previously, he desperately wanted to get another Exotic Fragment, but after searching around, he found nothing. He thought that in such a vast world, the chances of finding another fragment were slim.

But, only the second day, he actually felt something again.

Shocked, Qin Yun’s heart was instantly filled with delight.

Of course, he wanted to obtain these Exotic Fragments to upgrade the system faster.

"I’ve come to this community many times before, there was no reaction from the Wealth Gathering Array Source, not even yesterday, so this fragment must have come to this community within the last twenty-plus hours?"

Silently contemplating, Qin Yun sensed the pulse of the Wealth Gathering Array Source in his mind.

Following this pulse, he kept advancing, but he hadn’t walked much before a look of extreme astonishment appeared in his eyes again.

"The pulse of this fragment seems to be... coming from the place where Leyao and Professor Zhao live?" he thought in surprise.

Thinking this, Qin Yun had unconsciously arrived at Yu Leyao’s home.

"Qin Yun, you’re here?" Seeing Qin Yun’s arrival, Yu Leyao said joyously.

At this moment, Qin Yun wore a smile, but his heart was in shock.

He sensed that the fragment was indeed in Yu Leyao’s home, in her room.

While he was thinking, Yu Leyao walked into the room, then came out again, holding a small wooden box in her hands.

Opening the small wooden box, the contents appeared before Qin Yun.

Inside was a small rabbit toy, only palm-sized, looking somewhat aged, and two beautiful small stones... At this moment, Qin Yun’s gaze was fixed on a spot where an Exotic Fragment lay.

The fragment was crescent-shaped, with a material that looked like a fragment of an ancient bronze artifact, with several lines on it.

It was the Exotic Fragment Qin Yun had been searching for.

"Qin Yun, these are my childhood things. Didn’t you say you wanted to see them before?" Yu Leyao said with a grin.

She had just said two sentences when she noticed something unusual about Qin Yun and couldn’t help but ask, "Qin Yun, what’s wrong with you?"

At this moment, Qin Yun seemed a bit dazed.

"Oh, nothing." Qin Yun smiled, looking at the Exotic Fragment, suppressing the shock in his heart, and said, "Leyao, what is that little crescent fragment? How did you get it?"

He never expected that Yu Leyao would have this Exotic Fragment.

Moreover, she had it since childhood!

"This one?"

Yu Leyao glanced at it, thought carefully, and then shook her head, embarrassed, "I forgot."

The things here should have been carefully collected by her as a child, which should mean they were her most precious items, yet she couldn’t remember them now.

"Forgot?" Qin Yun was silently speechless; he originally wanted to know how Yu Leyao obtained it.

"Qin Yun, you seem really interested in this crescent fragment?" Yu Leyao asked curiously.

Upon hearing this, Qin Yun smiled and said, "Yeah, I’m indeed interested. I collected two similar pieces before."

"I see." Thinking for a moment, Yu Leyao took the crescent fragment out and handed it to Qin Yun, saying, "Then I’ll give this fragment to you."

Qin Yun had been thinking of asking Yu Leyao for that crescent fragment since it was related to the upgrade of the Wealth System, and who knew what benefits it might have later.

But before he could ask, Yu Leyao just gave it to him.

Of course, Qin Yun did not refuse.

...

After eating lunch, Qin Yun stayed for a while, then went to school with Yu Leyao, and afterward, he left the school.

In the car, Qin Yun looked at the crescent fragment in his hand, pondering silently for a while.

Swish!

His heart stirred, and the fragment instantly vanished, appearing within the Wealth Gathering Array Source.

This Exotic Fragment, appearing after the other two, attracted each other like magnets, merging into a larger piece!

After forming the new fragment, a series of cold, mechanical-like voices instantly echoed in Qin Yun’s mind.

"Name: Qin Yun."

"Level 3 Wealth Gathering Array: None"

"Level 2 Wealth Gathering Array: 112 (112 used)"

"Level 1 Wealth Gathering Array: 194 (194 used)"

"Balance: 4,451,615,000"

The Wealth System appeared once more!

"It’s back again!" Qin Yun’s heart leaped with joy.

The Wealth System only updates on the first of the month, but now it has appeared for the third time this month.

"The Wealth System is experiencing an update due to an unknown anomaly. Host please wait... updating..."

Listening to the voice in his mind, Qin Yun wondered silently, "I wonder if this time I can increase the balance by another ten billion?"

If another ten billion was added, his balance could exceed fifty billion!

Qin Yun didn’t have to wait long; in less than three seconds, certain information suddenly changed.

"Name: Qin Yun."

"Level 3 Wealth Gathering Array: None"

"Level 2 Wealth Gathering Array: 112 (112 used)"

"Level 1 Wealth Gathering Array: 194 (194 used)"

"Balance: 6,451,615,000"

"System update complete."

"Balance not reaching one hundred billion, insufficient to activate Level 4 Wealth Gathering Array."
