The Yang Gong Treasure Vault was not simply a treasure vault; it served the purpose of "raising an army." Whether it was to raise an army to serve the emperor or to rebel depended on the intentions of the person who controlled the treasure vault.

There are four passages, three inside the city and one outside. The passage leading outside the city is in an inconspicuous cave in a small hill. Di Yun is already waiting outside the cave in his carriage.

They entered the city, but the carriage did not; they had been waiting for this day.

Wanwan went out along the tracks, and then returned with Di Yun. The two of them didn't even look at the rusty weapons and armor, but focused on moving the only treasure vault.

At this moment, Zhu Yuyan was staring blankly at the Evil Emperor's Relic.

Zhou Ye was right. She couldn't use this thing, or rather, eighty percent of the people in the martial arts world couldn't use it. It did indeed contain the power of past evil emperors, but it was too mixed...

Each Evil Emperor cultivated a different technique. For example, the previous Evil Emperor, Xiang Yutian, cultivated the "Demonic Seed of the Dao Heart," while the current Evil King cultivated the "Undying Seal." And there was the Evil Emperor before that...

It can be said that as long as the two sects and six paths of the demonic sect are not unified, whether one can become an evil emperor or an evil king depends entirely on one's fate and personal efforts, and has nothing to do with cultivation techniques.

Zhou Ye glanced at his mother-in-law and realized that what she needed most right now was to calm down, so he turned around and helped her carry the treasures out.

"Why is there so much gold and silver, but so few treasures?"

Wanwan was very dissatisfied with the treasures in the vault. The Yang Gong Vault had such a great reputation, but there were no rare treasures inside. Instead, there was mostly gold and silver.

"This isn't a genuine treasure; it's meant to fund military operations. When it comes to military expenses, gold and silver are more practical. Treasures... they're not that useful."

The ancient system was very well-established and not as chaotic as it is today.

Just like the Zhou family mansion in Jiangling City, many people wouldn't believe it if it was said to have used two-thirds of the Liancheng Jue treasure, but it really is true.

How much treasure could be inside a three-meter-tall golden Buddha statue?

If Zhou Ye wanted to buy a house, he would take a jade Buddha with him, but the brokers would not accept it. He would have to go to a pawnshop to exchange it for real gold and silver before the brokers would start accepting money and doing business.

Everyone adheres to these rules in their respective industries. Even if someone from a brokerage firm takes a liking to the jade Buddha, they won't buy it from Zhou Ye; they'll buy it from a pawnshop instead.

If you're unwilling to abide by these rules, then they won't do business with you, and they'll even sell the news that you possess valuable treasures. Don't expect to live in peace; see who ends up suffering the most!

Modern society is truly indescribable; it's just chaotic!

They are both driven by the same desire for profit, but they have long since lost their integrity and sense of responsibility.

"Ah Ye, do we need to melt all this gold and silver down again when we get home?"

Zhou Ye nodded: "We need to melt it down, then mark it with our own logo, and then take it out for spending."

Di Yun nodded: "Alright, now that all the treasures have been moved, I'll head out now and sort through these things."

"Okay, let's go back the way we came."

Di Yun left the city a day early, so it wasn't surprising that he returned from outside the city. But the three of them hadn't left the city, so how could their sudden return from outside the city not attract attention?

Details matter, and they are very important!

Di Yun left, and Zhou Ye prepared to return the way he came. The most valuable items in Yang Gong's treasure vault had already been taken, and as for the scrap metal, let whoever wants it take it...

"Mother-in-law? Snap out of it, we're about to head out."

Zhu Yuyan sighed deeply, stuffed the Evil Emperor's Relic into her bosom, and walked out first. Wanwan and Zhou Ye walked together: "Didn't you say that Xiang Yutian was protecting this thing? You're not lying to me, are you?"

Zhou Ye glanced at her: "What? You want to bump into that person and get an autograph? Have you forgotten what I made you do on the way here?"

Wanwan paused, and Zhu Yuyan, who was in front of her, also perked up her ears...

"You mean, you had me spread the news that Mo Yiming's inscription had appeared in the desert..."

"That's right, Mo Yiming is Xiang Yutian's master. He learned 'The Demon Seed of the Dao Heart' from Mo Yiming. So much time has passed that many people no longer know the name, but Xiang Yutian definitely knows. He won't let 'The Demon Seed of the Dao Heart' spread, so regardless of whether it's true or not, he will make a trip. And during the time he's away... hehe!"

Wanwan narrowed her eyes and laughed, "You're so naughty!"

"So, do you like it?"

"like!"

"cough!"

Zhu Yuyan couldn't take it anymore, so she coughed lightly to remind the two of them that there was still someone else here!

They came slowly, but returned quickly. After the three of them came out of the well, they found a place to change their clothes. It was already daylight, and it wouldn't be appropriate to go out in night clothes and with their faces covered by black cloth.

After leaving Xiji Garden, the three of them wandered around the city. After eating some snacks, Zhou Ye went back to catch up on sleep, while Wanwan pulled Zhu Yuyan along and started shopping.

Even though there's only one head, they buy hairpins by the handful, and the rouge and face powder are almost sold by weight!

Wanwan paid for all the shopping sprees. She had been saving up her secret stash of money at home for so long, and she was just waiting to indulge herself today!

To be honest, this method did alleviate Zhu Yuyan's depression quite a bit...

They had their fun, but the people keeping watch were exhausted. Could it be that... Zhu Yuyan brought her followers to Chang'an just to spend money?

Are the Demonic Sect really that rich?

In modern tourism and shopping, there are courier services that can help you send your items back. But what about in ancient times?

Of course it was a security escort agency. This is the source of modern logistics. There were five whole carts of goods, none of which were of any value, but the clothes, hairpins, rouge and powder in those five carts were bought for six thousand taels of silver.

Not to mention outsiders, even Bai Qing'er clung to her senior sister, unwilling to let go: "Senior sister, next time there's something like this, you must call me! I'll help you carry your bag."

Because of her marriage, Wanwan has essentially retired from the Yin Gui Sect, and her competitive relationship with her fellow disciples has diminished considerably, making their relationship more harmonious than before.

Wanwan patted her hand and laughed, "Okay!"

Although everything seemed normal, in the eyes of her fellow disciples, Wanwan was clearly someone who was rich and powerful!

This trip of visiting relatives, shopping, and treasure hunting has come to an end.

Sitting in the carriage on the way home, Fu Junzhuo was still feeling dizzy. She had never had this experience in Goguryeo. Now, what she wanted most was not anything else, but to bring her sister to the Central Plains so that they could live a good life together.
