Chapter 382: 382 hurts so much.

"Who else could it be if not me, Great Elder," Han Yan poked her head out from a pile of miscellaneous items, looking at the Great Elder with a pitiable, breathless gaze. "Please do me a favor and help me out."

It was indeed too heavy. It was fine with the spiritual elixirs and cultivation methods, but those dozen or so longswords were really of exceptional quality, each made from refined steel. They looked light but weighed about one to two hundred pounds apiece.

Even for the strength of a Great Swordsman, carrying two to three thousand pounds at once was overwhelming for Mu Hanyan.

"You’re not dead?" the Great Elder asked.

"Have you ever seen a dead person talk?" Mu Hanyan retorted irritably.

"Did you take the things inside?" the Great Elder pointed towards the tomb and asked with a stern face.

"What things?" Mu Hanyan looked at the tomb with puzzlement, then suddenly said, "Oh, you’re talking about that chamber? Really strange. The place was supposed to be a Treasure Vault, who would be so bored as to build a tomb inside? It’s not like they want to scare themselves. This place is eerie enough, and then out of nowhere, there’s a tomb. I don’t want to invite any bad luck. If you’re interested in the wealth of the dead, you go look for it. I’m not interested."

Although the Great Elder’s question was vague, Mu Hanyan still guessed what he was referring to. If that Life Token was just a Life Token, giving it back to him wouldn’t matter, but after learning its secret, how could she willingly hand it over to someone else?

At that moment, she also guessed that Mu Tianlie must have some connection with the descendants of the Great Elder’s line in the Mu Family. But no matter, she too was one of the Mu Family members, so anything that fell into her hands was not going to other fields.

"Is what you’re saying true?" the Great Elder didn’t seem upset by Mu Hanyan’s irreverence but asked doubtfully.

"Why would I lie to you? Besides, you’ve said it yourself, take whatever I like from the Treasure Vault. If there had been anything worthwhile and I took it, you couldn’t do anything about it, so why would I need to lie to you?" Mu Hanyan said nonchalantly.

For a moment, the Great Elder was at a loss for words. He hadn’t thought of that. If Mu Hanyan really had taken ancestral relics from the tomb, he truly had nothing to say. As the Great Elder of the Mu Family, he still had some integrity to uphold. So, it seemed he didn’t actually need to lie to himself.

What the Great Elder didn’t realize was that the secret of the Life Token was too astonishing. Mu Hanyan dared not guarantee that if he knew the secret, he could still maintain the dignity and integrity befitting the Great Elder, so how could she dare tell him the truth.

Moreover, the Great Elder already held such a deep prejudice against her and had always wanted to deal with her. If he found out, he would probably try to snatch it away.

"Great Elder, please help me out. I really can’t carry it anymore," Mu Hanyan said pitifully, seeing the Great Elder silent and not wanting him to become suspicious after overthinking.

"If it’s too heavy, you should’ve taken less," the Great Elder commented irritably, feeling a twinge of pain.

This damn kid really had no scruples. Looking at her, if she could grow a few more hands, she would probably even empty out the entire Treasure Vault.

To think all these treasures were what he had saved up over decades by scrimping and saving. He originally wanted to pass them on for generations, but now Mu Hanyan had taken all the decent ones in one go.

With her wasteful habits, his decades of frugality were probably all in vain.

Forget it, he’d just continue to live frugally. Perhaps he could still accumulate some wealth for future generations. The Great Elder consoled himself with a look as dark as the earth.

"It’s not every day the Great Elder generously opens his mouth to allow it, so how could I not take advantage and show my gratitude for your kindness?" Mu Hanyan said with a mischievous smile.
