Trading system, I exchanged vegetables for golden pills.

When Sect Leader He heard the elder say this, he immediately jumped up in anger.

"Well, you old codger, I knew you were hiding something from me. Turns out you really were!"

The Foundation Establishment elder from the humble academy sneered, "If I hadn't held back, you would have ruined the entire academy long ago! Look at what it's become!"

Sect Master He was quite upset, but he couldn't lash out with Ye Chen present.

The Foundation Establishment elder of the Humble Clan looked at Ye Chen: "The treasures I've hidden are the personal belongings of the clan's past founders. They're all absolutely valuable. Since the Humble Clan is in such a state anyway, rather than letting them benefit others, I might as well give them to you directly. At least they'll have a final resting place!"

Ye Chen glanced at the Foundation Establishment Elder from the Humble Abode. This old guy is already a cripple, how could he be so kind?

Are you still thinking of giving him the truly good things from a poor family?

"Where is the item?" Ye Chen asked casually.

The Foundation Establishment elder from a humble background shook his head: "Without a map, it's hard to describe clearly. I'll need to take you there myself. But my limbs are crippled by you, could you heal me first?"

"Oh? You're quite confident in me. Are you so sure I can cure you?" Ye Chen chuckled.

The elder from humble beginnings nodded: "I believe that your acupuncture skills are so refined that you were able to save him from the brink of death. My situation is simpler and not a big problem. I just want to live a peaceful, ordinary life for a few years!"

"You wait here!" Ye Chen said noncommittally before going with Sect Leader He to retrieve the documents.

After many twists and turns, Master He finally arrived at a place halfway up a mountain, where there was a cave.

The cave is partially obscured by vegetation, making it a difficult place for the average person to find.

They definitely put a lot of effort into making it concealed.

The cave entrance is a large, thick iron gate, so its safety is beyond question, but the style doesn't quite match.

With both a key and a password, Master He finally opened the large iron gate.

The interior of the cave is made of poured concrete and looks quite large.

Ye Chen scanned the cave with his divine sense and found two rooms inside. One of the rooms was filled with various gold, silver and jade artifacts, which looked to be quite old!

The items weren't stacked neatly, but they weren't particularly messy either; at least each category was clearly distinguished.

It allows people to see clearly what's inside at a glance.

The gold bricks are the most eye-catching, estimated to be around two cubic meters in size.

If an ordinary person saw this scene, they would definitely be unable to move.

That was a fortune that would last for generations, and it was just piled up carelessly in this cave.

How much would two cubic meters of gold bricks be worth?

Ye Chen did a rough calculation in his mind, but the number was too large for him to calculate in a short time.

In short, you should be able to achieve freedom by simply taking a few things...

The other room contained shelves piled up with books, file folders, USB drives, and other similar items.

There was even an office desk and a laptop; the materials Master He mentioned should be in that area.

"We've arrived. This is it. Please!" Master He gestured for us to enter.

"Lead the way!" Ye Chen said calmly.

He had inspected the cave and found no special mechanisms.

He wasn't worried about being trapped inside.

While others couldn't break through the concrete, he could easily dismantle the main door of this iron gate.

If Master He wants to live a little longer, he has to pray that he doesn't lose his mind and have any bad thoughts.

Fortunately, Sect Master He really didn't have any other intentions; he simply brought Ye Chen to retrieve something.

Sect Leader He entered first, pointing around: "Ye Chen, take whatever you want, it's all yours. I just hope you'll keep your promise and let me go!"

Ye Chen remained noncommittal: "Let me take a look at the data first!"

"Yes, the documents are over there!"

Master He walked to another room, took a file folder from the shelf, and inside were two USB drives!

Then he opened a laptop next to him, plugged in a USB drive, and began to show Ye Chen various pieces of evidence and explain them.

Ye Chen took out his phone and recorded Sect Leader He's explanation.

Although Sect Leader He was somewhat disgusted, he ultimately said nothing!

Since we've already gone all in, nothing else matters.

Even if Old Chen saw it, so what? He would be too busy taking care of himself to care about him.

Master He spoke for more than 10 minutes, recounting almost all the despicable things that Old Chen had instructed him to do.

If this video gets out, Mr. Chen will probably be caught in a media storm, forced to accept an investigation, and his downfall will be only a matter of time.

After recording the video, Ye Chen took the USB drive and the computer.

"Alright, you can go out now, I'm going to wander around!" Ye Chen dismissed Sect Leader He.

Sect Leader He understood immediately that Ye Chen wanted to take something. The young man was shy and didn't want to lose face, so he sent him away first.

"Alright, take your time looking around. I'll go outside for some fresh air first!" Master He nodded and left.

I'm not afraid of Ye Chen taking things; I'm afraid of Ye Chen taking nothing at all.

If Ye Chen takes something, it means his chances of survival are much higher!

Of course, he didn't think of foolishly running away. He was seriously injured and knew he couldn't escape.

After Sect Leader He left, Ye Chen put everything in the two rooms into his storage ring.

His net worth increased several times over in an instant...

What pleased Ye Chen most were the pile of jade artifacts and the shelves of books.

He can use jade artifacts to inscribe formations. They are consumables. There are so many of them. It would take him a long time to select the raw stones, and he might not even be able to find this many.

Many of the books are ancient books, which are valuable items and perfect for system trading!

The practicality of storage rings is fully demonstrated here!

Others may need to pick and choose, picking out something of value to take with them.

Ye Chen said, "Adults don't bother choosing what to do; they can just pack everything up and take it all with them!"

Although he didn't like these gold, silver, bronze, iron, antiques, calligraphy and paintings, it would be a waste to leave them there, so he took them all with him.

Sect Leader He took a few breaths of fresh air as he walked to the cave entrance, and Ye Chen followed him out!

Sect Leader He was slightly taken aback: "You, why are you out here too? You can take your time looking around, there's no rush!"

Ye Chen's hands were empty, and it seemed that he hadn't brought anything with him.

So, did you not like anything at all?

Sect Leader He had a bad feeling!

Ye Chen wasn't interested in these treasures?

He glanced inside out of the corner of his eye. Hmm? Everything's gone!

Master He was startled and immediately rubbed his eyes.

When he opened his eyes again, the gold, silver and jade artifacts miraculously reappeared in their original place, arranged as before.

In fact, the inside was already empty; what he was seeing now was merely Ye Chen's illusionary divine technique.

"How about I... I'll arrange for a car to deliver it to you?" Master He asked cautiously.

Ye Chen waved his hand: "No need, I don't like these gold and silver things. I'm more interested in the items passed down from your ancestors in your humble abode. Let's go!"

Ye Chen then "kindly" closed the door behind him.
