Chapter 397: Chapter 429: Plunder

Chapter Four Hundred Twenty-Nine

After all of the Qiu Family’s people were subdued, Zhao Xiaoqiao made a call to the division chief.

On hearing the news, the division chief was also very pleased.

The Qiu Family held significant influence in Hechuan City, and now they had finally uprooted it. The Special Action Division took away the Qiu family’s direct descendants, whereas the police were notified to deal with the Qiu family’s servants separately.

Zhao Xiaoqiao noticed that Long Xiaoshan was silently making his way into the Qiu mansion.

She shouted, “Long Xiaoshan, where are you going?”

“To the restroom, group leader, are you going too? Then let’s go together,” Long Xiaoshan replied.

“Go your sister! Scram!”

“Fine, I won’t go; why curse at me,” Long Xiaoshan said innocently, spreading his hands and slipping inside, quickly disappearing from sight.

Zhao Xiaoqiao furrowed her brows, always feeling that Long Xiaoshan was up to some trick. But with all the Qiu family members captured, what mischief could he possibly create? She was beginning to get paranoid because of him.

“Long Xiaoshan, don’t mess with the Qiu family’s stuff; it’s all evidence of their crimes,” she called out.

“Got it!”

After turning a corner, Long Xiaoshan had reached the Qiu Family Inner Courtyard.

He slowed his pace and began to search around. No doubt the Qiu family was a grand household. The interior was filled with ancient architectures, clearly genuine heritages. The doors and windows were made of old mahogany.

In any random room, there were antiques on display.

The paintings hanging on the wall were also authentic, without a single forgery.

Don’t ask how Long Xiaoshan was able to tell.

Being a Spirit Master, he was particularly sensitive to ancient objects, which carried an ancient aura. By sensing their age, he could be sure they were genuine.

However, Long Xiaoshan didn’t touch these items.

Though they were of considerable value,

They were not what he was really after.

Actually, he was looking for any secret rooms the Qiu family might have. Qiu Haishan had mentioned that he had some prized possessions and Hundred-Year-Old Medicine, which might be hidden in the Qiu mansion. Even if they were not, a large noble family like this would definitely have secrets to uncover. In his current situation, he had no reason to let this opportunity slip by.

The Qiu Family Mansion covered several hundred acres. Once Long Xiaoshan entered the inner courtyard and checked that no one was around,

He took out the Black Soul Banner and summoned Yue Ling, saying, “Brother Yue, can you help me check if there are any secret rooms around?”

Currently, his Divine Soul was damaged, and the Heavenly Eye was not functioning. Otherwise, with one sweep of the Heavenly Eye, nothing could hide from him, so he could only rely on Yue Ling, the Ghost King.

Yue Ling nodded and dissipated into the ground as a gust of wind.

As Long Xiaoshan wandered around, after around ten minutes,

Yue Ling emerged from the ground and said, “I’ve found three secret rooms. Two of them contain money and valuables, and one holds many of the Qiu family’s secret treasures.”

Long Xiaoshan’s eyes lit up as he rubbed his hands together, “Lead the way.”

Yue Ling nodded and led the way; Long Xiaoshan followed him through a series of twists and turns until they arrived at a quaint courtyard with a house inside. Yue Ling said, “The secret room is underneath this house. The mechanism is in the study.”

“Great,” Long Xiaoshan hurried inside the house and into the study.

The bookshelf in the study was enormous, taking up an entire wall and standing over three meters tall. To reach the books at the very top, one would need a ladder. Yue Ling directed, “The mechanism involves these few books; press them in sequence.”

Long Xiaoshan jumped up, reached for the eighth book from the right on the topmost shelf, and pressed it in. That book sank into the shelf.

Then he pressed the ninth book on the second shelf from the left.

After pressing five books in succession,

Click! Click!

The ground of the room vibrated slightly, and the bookshelf slowly moved apart to both sides.

A doorway behind the bookshelf was revealed, and on the ground of the doorway was a stairway about one and a half meters wide leading downward. Long Xiaoshan clicked his tongue; these big families really did have their secrets—who would have guessed there was another world hidden behind the bookshelf?

With Yue Ling there, he wasn’t afraid of any traps or hidden weapons.

Walking down the stairs for more than ten meters, he had clearly entered deep underground. However, the air wasn’t bad; the secret room obviously had a ventilation system. Long Xiaoshan pressed a switch on the wall, and lights came on, revealing a large secret room, ten meters square, before his eyes.

In the large secret room, there were several shelves, and to one side, seven or eight boxes.

Long Xiaoshan’s eyes gleamed as he immediately went up to one of the shelves.

On this shelf were some boxes and many small porcelain bottles.

Long Xiaoshan took one small porcelain bottle, poured out a green elixir pill, and sniffed it.

A medicinal fragrance rushed into his nose; Long Xiaoshan felt somewhat disappointed—it was just an ordinary elixir pill, nowhere near comparable to the spiritual medicine he produced. However, the medicinal herbs used were not bad, and it was indeed rare for the average person.

He put the bottle back and opened each of the bottles in turn, finally putting them all back.

These items did not catch his interest; taking them was pointless.

He picked up a box that had been placed among the medicine bottles, his eyes lighting up slightly, “Fifty-year-old Lingzhi.”

This was not bad.

He unhesitatingly put it into his space ring.

Then he opened another box, “Sixty-year-old Codonopsis!”

This was also good.

He opened the boxes one by one; all of them contained aged medicines of at least fifty years. Long Xiaoshan even found two hundred-year-old medicinal herbs, a hundred-year-old kudzu root, and a hundred-year-old poria. Hundred-year-old herbs were rare; it was indeed worthy of a Hidden World Family to have two hundred-year-old medicinal herbs, as well as dozens of other aged medicines over fifty years.

Unfortunately, even after searching through the entire wooden rack, Long Xiaoshan did not find the three-hundred-year-old medicine that Qiu Haishan had mentioned.

It seemed that either Qiu Haishan had lied to him or his precious collection was not kept in the Qiu Family.

Originally, if there were three-hundred-year-old medicines, he could have tried to refine Qi Nurturing Pills, potentially allowing his cultivation to break through again, giving him more confidence in the duel with the leader of the Iron Palm Gang in a month.

Long Xiaoshan was only slightly disappointed, but quickly discarded this trivial thought; even without it, he could cultivate them himself.

He moved to another wooden rack.

On this rack were some martial arts of the Qiu Family.

Long Xiaoshan flipped through them.

He quickly lost interest and put them down; the Qiu Family’s martial arts were considered rare for the average person, but to him, they were not as good as the martial arts passed on to him by Yue Ling. After all, Yue Ling had been a Grandmaster, and she passed on Wumu’s Ultimate Art, while the Qiu Family had never produced a Grandmaster.

He quickly turned to the third shelf.

After seeing what was on this shelf, Long Xiaoshan finally showed a trace of a smile.

The items on this shelf were all spiritual materials.

Green Silver Sand, Zihang Iron, Blood Jade Coral, Golden Silkworm Silk… The spiritual materials gathered by the Qiu Family were not something that could be found on the open market, and although there was only a small quantity of each, it was nonetheless a big gain for Long Xiaoshan.

After all, this was the legacy of a century-old family.

Without hesitation, he swept these spiritual materials clean.

Long Xiaoshan picked up a crystal as big as a thumb; with the heritage of the Blood Buddha, he was basically familiar with spiritual materials, but he didn’t recognize what this crystal was. Moreover, although the crystal was small, it gave him a feeling that it contained a very powerful energy, a dangerous feeling.
