Invincible Immortal Cultivator in the City
Chapter 123: Sweeping

Chapter 123: Chapter 123: Sweeping

Xu Family’s main hall.

When Lin Hao returned, Yu Song was sitting by the door, somehow procuring a flask of white liquor out of nowhere, aimlessly tilting it towards the moon, taking swigs as if it were plain water.

Seeing this scene, Lin Hao was not surprised; in his past life, Yu Song was not only known as the Great Demon King but also by another moniker.

Drunkard!

The fellow was as addicted to liquor as to his very life, and each time after drinking, his combat power would soar.

Compared to Great Demon King, Lin Hao was more fond of his title as a drunkard.

From a good distance away, Lin Hao could smell the alcohol, along with a scent of blood.

Behind Yu Song and through the open door, members of the Yu Family lay scattered on the ground.

"Hao bro, you’re back. I’ve finished what you tasked me with," Yu Song said with a hehe, "These people, they were really no match for me."

"You’re injured?" Lin Hao noticed that Yu Song’s calf had been soaked through by fresh blood and frowned.

"It’s nothing. My footwork wasn’t flashy enough, and I got shot, but it’s no big deal," Yu Song’s words were a bit slurred, a drunken look in his eyes.

"As long as it’s nothing serious." Lin Hao reached out and pressed a few acupuncture points on Yu Song’s body to stop the bleeding, then said, "Follow me."

With that, Lin Hao entered the Xu Family’s hall first, stood in the center, closed his eyes, and seemed to sense something.

Yu Song’s drunkenness cleared up considerably, waiting in confusion.

Only when Lin Hao opened his eyes did he ask, "Hao bro, what are you doing?"

"I called you here this time because I wanted to give you an opportunity for a great fortune. Just follow me," Lin Hao wove through the hall, leading Yu Song into a study.

Inside the study were many precious calligraphies and paintings, but neither of them even spared a glance at them.

One had lived for a thousand years and had long lost interest in such things, whereas the other, born into a wealthy family, had even less need for them.

After a quick glance around, Lin Hao had a clear understanding of the room’s layout, and with a slight shift of his foot, a floor tile indented under his step.

"Boom..."

Under Yu Song’s astonished gaze, a wall in the study slowly opened.

Following that, Yu Song’s astonishment turned into shock.

Inside the secret chamber, golden light shimmered, with gold, silver, and jewels scattered like trash, piled up together. On the walls, several top-tier night pearls cast the whole chamber in bright light.

Besides this, there were box after box of modern currency, stacked high like walls.

"Damn, is this their treasure room..." Yu Song swallowed hard, and even as a wealthy second generation, he couldn’t help but be extremely shocked.

"Do you see it? That is the opportunity I’m giving you," Lin Hao did not answer Yu Song’s question but pointed towards the center of the secret chamber.

In the brilliantly golden secret chamber, in addition to the gold, silver, antiques, paintings, and cash.

There was also an item that appeared very ordinary, yet was conspicuously placed.

It was a yellow gourd, enclosed in a glass case.

That is what Lin Hao was pointing to.

"A gourd?" Yu Song asked curiously, "What’s this for, storing liquor?"

"Of course not. Inside, there’s an elixir. That elixir was likely left by Xu Guanjie’s great-grandfather; it’s been around for some time. Consuming it can not only extend your life but also allow your strength to rapidly break through."

Lin Hao knew well what the elixir within the gourd was; in his previous life, Xu Guanjie had experienced a surge in strength as a result of consuming it, becoming one of the Binhai’s many powerhouses, and even when committing vile deeds, ordinary people would not dare to provoke him.

The elixir originated from the Late Qing period, refined by a great master.

Lin Hao called Yu Song over tonight in order to retrieve this elixir from the Xu Family and give it to him.

"With such a fine elixir, why didn’t the Xu Family just consume it instead of leaving it here?" Yu Song wondered.

"They wish they could. The gourd is sealed by an Array inscribed by a master. Only a specific person can retrieve the elixir inside, and if anyone tries to forcefully take it, the elixir would explode."

Lin Hao took out the gourd from the glass box and began to loosen its stopper.

As soon as his hand touched it, faint blue lines appeared on the gourd, humming as if it would explode at any moment.

Seeing this scene, Yu Song was dumbstruck.

He was not born into a family of Cultivators and had only stepped into the realm of Cultivation for a year, never having seen such a spectacle.

"Is this an Array... But Hao, if the Xu Family couldn’t open it, I certainly can’t. Do you understand this Array?!"

"I don’t."

Lin Hao said while effortlessly pulling out the gourd stopper, "But I can force it open."

As the stopper was removed, the Array on the gourd immediately dimmed.

Yu Song’s expression turned odd, and the corner of his mouth twitched.

Forced... open...

How is that forcibly opening? He easily opened it, alright? He even doubted whether there was the Array Lin Hao mentioned on it.

As soon as the stopper was removed, the entire secret chamber was instantly covered by a fragrant medicinal scent.

But the next moment, Lin Hao put the stopper back in and handed the gourd to Yu Song: "Take this back with you, consume it yourself, and don’t open it while on the road. This thing has been stored for too long, and just opening it briefly has already caused a lot of the potency to dissipate."

"Okay." Yu Song nodded without refusal, taking the gourd.

Yu Shilong had already warned him that whatever Lin Hao gave him, no matter what it was, he was not allowed to refuse!

Because whatever Lin Hao gave away was definitely good stuff!

"Um, there’s also the gold and silver treasure here, pick some to your liking first, take as much as you can." Lin Hao pulled over a chair, sat down, and casually said.

"You don’t want it?" Yu Song asked in surprise.

"You pick first, then I’ll take mine."

"Okay."

Excitement flashed in Yu Song’s eyes; this place was simply a Golden Mountain. Even for a rich second generation like him, it was impossible not to be moved.

It is no exaggeration to say that if all the items here were moved out, they would be worth at least several billion!

Unfortunately, there were too many items to move them all.

He found two chests and selected a few more valuable items, as well as some gems and the like, filling them to the brim.

"Hao, I’ve made my selections." Yu Song was very excited; Lin Hao was incredibly generous to let him pick first.

He was not shy at all and directly took all the most valuable items, with the two chests of treasures worth at least a billion.

Although it was a lot less compared to the whole room of treasures, Yu Song was still very satisfied.

This trip was definitely worth it!

"Alright, my turn."

Seeing that he was satisfied, Lin Hao stood up and walked into the secret chamber.

The next moment, Yu Song, who was standing at the entrance of the secret chamber, slowly became astonished, dumbfounded, and finally was left slack-jawed in shock.

He saw Lin Hao calmly walking inside the secret room.

With each step, his right hand reached out, sweeping past the treasures in the room as if skimming water.

Every item he touched disappeared into thin air as if by magic.

In less than half an hour, the secret chamber, once filled with treasures, was emptied.

Treasures worth nearly tens of billions had vanished as if they had evaporated from the earth, leaving nothing behind.

Yu Song stood frozen in place, completely petrified, like a wooden chicken.
