With a warehouse full of supplies, I stood alone as king in this chaotic world, gun in hand.

"We found it!" Nangong Wu looked at the detector's increased frequency, listened to the continuous and rapid beeping, and saw the screen displaying off-the-charts numbers, a bright smile spreading across her face.

Li Shuang couldn't understand, but seeing how happy she was, she figured it must be something good. "Your Highness, have you found gold and jewels?"

"Yes, gold and silver jewelry were detected, a lot of it, more than what's hidden in the underground vault of Prince Jing's mansion." Nangong Wu felt that her trip to Yulong City was worthwhile and she had gained a lot.

Li Shuang was also very pleased to hear this. "Your Highness, this provides another source of funding for the reconstruction of Runan City."

"Yes, this is the Fan family's property. Even if we don't want it, it will fall into other people's hands." Nangong Wu thought of Shi Shengqing and Wan Shuhua's vicious and greedy faces. She would never let them die a good death.

"Shi Shengqing killed everyone in the Fan family, not even his own daughter. He seized everything from the Fan family and dreamed of enjoying wealth and luxury for generations to come!"

But what goes around comes around. Those who steal by robbing and murder will have to pay for everything they've gained.

"But they still got to enjoy wealth and luxury for over twenty years for nothing. For a scoundrel like Shi Shengqing, it was still a win!" Li Shuang said.

"There's nothing we can do, this is everyone's fate, it's all fate's cruel joke." Nangong Wu sighed, "It's also the Fan family's destiny to perish!"

Judging from Shi Shengqing's appearance, he was destined for wealth and honor. Even if he hadn't seduced Wan Shuhua, he would have enjoyed endless riches and glory in his life. Unfortunately, his insatiable greed ruined his future. This is the karmic cycle of fate.

Shi Shengqing might not have been able to reach a high-ranking official position like Minister if he hadn't curried favor with the Wan family, but with the Fan family's wealth and his own talent, he wouldn't have risen to a low rank. With the Fan family's vast fortune, he wouldn't need to be subservient to anyone.

"Your Highness, you are amazing! You can tell a person's fortune and future just by looking at their face." Li Shuang was very impressed.

"Nothing is absolute." Nangong Wu shook her head. "Besides looking at his face, we also have to look at his birth chart. Shi Shengqing's face is that of someone of wealth and nobility, but his birth chart is not good. Moreover, the divination results are not immutable."

"..." Li Shuang seemed to understand but not quite.

Nangong Wu kept checking the screen of the detector and found that the place with a large amount of gold and silver jewelry was about 500 meters away, in a secluded part of the backyard of this mansion.

About 100 to 200 meters away, a lot of gold and silver was found, but it was not underground. It was most likely a public treasury or a private vault of Shi Shengqing and Wan Shuhua, but the amount of gold and silver treasures hidden inside was not much.

"His Highness the Crown Prince said that he and his men had searched the Shi residence many times but had not found the Fan family's treasury. They thought that Old Master Shi had moved the silver out and hidden it. But now that you have found it, it seems that these places are very well hidden," Li Shuang said.

"Mm." Nangong Wu nodded, put away the detector, and sent it back into her spatial storage.

"This treasure underground is buried in the soil, about ten feet deep, and it will take people to dig it out."

The treasures buried by the Fan family were several feet deeper than the gold and silver they dug up from You Zhao's tomb in Jinniu City.

"If that's the case, the Crown Prince will have to personally send people out. Once the unearthed treasures are made public, they might be added to the treasury of the Southern Qi Kingdom," Li Shuang said with some regret.

"No." Nangong Wu recalled the things she had experienced with Bei Chenyan.

They stole treasure together multiple times, mostly from unearthed artifacts.

The backyard of the government office in Jinniu City was involved; the treasury of the Eastern Jin Dynasty was seized; and the private treasury of the Eastern Jin Emperor was also seized.

Thinking about the four years she had spent with that man and the many interesting things they had done together, a slight smile crept onto her lips.

"Li Shuang, let's go into the space to rest. We'll make our move tonight."

"Your Highness, please go inside and rest! I will stay outside and keep watch." Li Shuang wanted to stay outside.

They've caused such a big commotion today; someone could come looking for trouble for them at any moment.

"Don't worry, they won't come looking for us, nor will they send us anything." Nangong Wu led Li Shuang into the space.

Shi Shengqing was just waiting for nightfall so he could kill them; he wouldn't bother her during the day.

night.

As soon as it got dark, Nangong Wu quietly jumped out of the back window.

Because if we stayed any longer, the courtyard would be surrounded by people, and it would be troublesome to get out.

There were several large trees behind the house. She squatted down by the wall, took out a sniper rifle, and fired a shot at them.

She knew all along that there were people in that tree, specifically there to spy on them, damn it!

"Ah..." A low scream echoed from the tree, and a dark shadow fell from it.

Just as this person was about to fall to the ground, Nangong Wu used her mind to collect him into her spatial storage.

She closed the window again, left, and headed towards the goal she had discovered that day.

At this time, the servants and guards in the mansion were still walking around outside, but to Nangong Wu, these people were practically useless.

Her lightness skill was taught to her by Bei Chenyan. Although she wasn't as skilled as him, she was definitely an expert, something these ordinary guards couldn't detect.

After walking about 200 meters, they stopped. Seeing that no one was around, they took out the detector again to check and determine the location of the treasure.

As soon as the instrument beeped, Nangong Wu immediately put the item into her spatial storage.

As soon as she disappeared, two people flew over.

"There's no one here. There were definitely strange noises. Could we have imagined it?"

"Let's look for it. The adults said there can't be any mistakes tonight."

The two people left while talking.

Nangong Wu only came out of the space after confirming the location.

"Your Highness, I'll go out too," Li Shuang said to her from inside the space.

"No need, you can stay in the space with the children," he said to her, then leaped onto a rooftop.

She looked at the row of houses across the street, which had six rooms in total, and found one of the gold and silver treasures there.

She took out her night-vision binoculars and saw that there were about twenty guards around the six houses, which seemed to be the Shi family's storeroom.

Suddenly sensing someone approaching from behind, Nangong Wu's thoughts flashed into the space.

She couldn't get into a fight here, lest she alert the guards stationed around the warehouse, otherwise she wouldn't be able to get anything done tonight.

A figure flashed to the spot where she had just been standing, and seeing that she was gone, let out a soft laugh, "It's me."

"Bei Chenyan." Nangong Wu saw him in the space and pulled him into the space as well.

"Why are you here?"

Bei Chenyan looked her up and down before saying, "I was worried about you, so I came to check on you."

"You must have heard about what happened between me and the Shi family during the day, right?" Nangong Wu knew that he had planted people in the Shi family.

"I've heard about it!" Bei Chenyan looked at her with some helplessness. "I told you not to confront them head-on."
