The formation was not particularly strong, but if someone were to recklessly enter, they would draw attention and expose themselves.

While Jiang Xiaobai wasn’t completely clueless about formations, he was also unable to break through this one in a short amount of time. Though he had the “Divine Concealment” technique that could avoid detection, he was not sure if this would work.

Then, Jiang Xiaobai thought about waiting to see if there was another opportunity to open the treasury. He could then sneak in disguised as a mosquito.

However, after waiting for quite a while, there was no sign of additional treasures being delivered. It seemed like the banquet was coming to an end.

If he lets this drag on, the good stuff inside might be seized by the city lord, Yuwen Tiancheng, and he would miss an excellent opportunity.

Thinking about this, Jiang Xiaobai gritted his teeth and decided to give it a try.

He swiftly transformed into a mosquito, taking off from the wall with ease and bypassing the guards’ inspection. He then slipped into the treasury through the crack in the door.

His heart pounding in anticipation, he knew he’d have to run for his life again if discovered.

The good news was that he managed to enter the treasury unnoticed. His face lit up with excitement as he looked towards the large chests on the ground.

Most likely, they contained spirit stones, spirit medicines, spirit pills, and some other valuable treasures.

He immediately set about opening the chests, revealing a wealth of spirit stones and treasures. The spirit stones were all stored in the “Meandering Veins Record,” and all other treasures and spirit medicines were put into his storage space.

It only took about five minutes to do all this. In total, he secured an estimated seventy to eighty million high-grade spirit stones, inclusive of the value of the treasures and spirit pills.

Satisfied, Jiang Xiaobai moved to a conspicuous place near the treasury door, preparing to leave a message.

Just then, the treasury door suddenly began to open. Jiang Xiaobai immediately froze against the wall, maintaining a fixed stare at the door.

If danger or exposure threatened, he would not hesitate to flee.

Two servants walked in carrying a few large chests. They threw the chests on the ground without a glance and turned to leave.

The door closed again, and Jiang Xiaobai let out a sigh of relief before promptly

seizing the newly brought chests.

After leaving a message on the wall, he left the treasury satisfied.

Throughout the process, he managed not to alert anyone, and he had left no trace of his presence. The other party would not be able to pin anything on him.

Jiang Xiaobai quickly returned to AnRan, who was ecstatic to see him return.

Suppressing his excitement, AnRan whispered to Jiang Xiaobai, “How did it go? Was it successful?”

“Of course it was successful, at least to this extent.” Jiang Xiaobai exaggerated his gains, nearly popping AnRan’s eyes out.

“What are we waiting for, then? Let’s run. If we’re found out, we’re going to be in big trouble,” AnRan urged.

Jiang Xiaobai nodded, and they both stood up, calmly making their way out of the city lord’s mansion without arousing suspicion.

Once out of the city lord’s mansion, they took off running as fast as they could and made their way out of Four Seas City according to plan.

“Let’s go to the Spirit Stone mine!” Jiang Xiaobai said excitedly.

Under the cover of darkness, they flew for about ten minutes before reaching the Spirit Stone mine. It held over three hundred million high-grade Spirit Stones, a treasure of immense value.

By now, many of the city lord’s mansion guards were stationed here. As many factions were involved, necessary protection was required.

After a glance, Jiang Xiaobai found that the guards were not very strong. The strongest among them was only at the late infancy stage, whom Jiang Xiaobai could now squash with ease.

They exchanged glances and Jiang Xiaobai transmitted, “Change of plan. We directly seize.”

“What if we can’t retreat on time?”

“Against those weaklings over there? You fear nothing. They can be killed in no time.”

“Alright, let’s do it.”

After deciding on the details, they attacked from two sides. AnRan, although chubby and only at the late Yuan Infant stage, wasn’t to be underestimated. He could fight off the common transcendence stage for a few rounds without falling short.

As soon as AnRan rushed out into the night, his heavy iron rod smashed the head of one guard, splattering blood and brains everywhere.

On Jiang Xiaobai’s side, each of his casual sword strikes cut his opponents in half.

Together, they dealt with close to half of the guards within a minute.

The remaining guards, their eyes bloodshot, rushed to alert Yuwen Tiancheng. Jiang Xiaobai had expected this.

He wanted Yuwen Tiancheng to know that he, Jiang Xiaobai, had come for him.

This was not just an attack on Yuwen Tiancheng but also a slap across the

Thousand Yuan Dynasty’s face.

Soon, the entire mine’s defenses were wiped out, and without wasting any time, Jiang Xiaobai took out the “Meandering Veins Record” to do away with the mine.

A golden light flashed as the “Meandering Veins Record” flipped its pages on its own, sucking in the spiritual aura from the mine. The mined spirit stones were stored inside the magical artifact, where they transformed into a mine once again.

Seeing all this, AnRan was stunned, “Jiang Bai, what the heck is that?”

“Ah, it’s just some stuff for eating. No need to fuss about it.”

Jiang Xiaobai casually waved his hand, grabbed AnRan’s collar, and flew into the sky at high speed. Yuwen Tiancheng was bound to be on his way here soon.

While here, Jiang Xiaobai made sure to leave a parting gift for them.

As expected, shortly after Jiang Xiaobai left, seven or eight figures descended from the sky. All were Yuwen Tiancheng’s men.

They saw the corpses scattered on the ground and their faces changed dramatically. They hurried into the mine, checking the situation.

The result left them dumbfounded.

“Where are the spirit stones? Not a single one is left!”

All the spirit stones in the mine were taken by Jiang Xiaobai using the “Meandering Veins Record.” Apart from collapsed soil, there was nothing left.

Suddenly shocked, they stood still, like they’d been struck by lightning.

Such a big mess, how were they going to explain this to Yuwen Tiancheng?

Before they could react, a cloud of white smoke suddenly exploded from the ground, engulfing them all..
