Chapter 869: Chapter 869 Make a Decision

The next day at dawn, Jun Zhenlin had everyone hold their positions while he went alone toward the front. Luo Qiao and Lu Yichen detoured around the group and caught up with Jun Zhenlin, who had left the others behind, and watched him enter a narrow passage after walking eight or nine hundred meters ahead.

Luo Qiao and her companion didn’t dare follow too closely. They waited until all sounds had ceased before stealthily moving forward, seeing that the mountain wall inside was covered in vines. If they hadn’t seen Jun Zhenlin pulling apart the vines to enter, they never would have guessed there was more to this place.

The duo found a place to hide and heard Jun Zhenlin inside say, "Heaven truly isn’t fair. Must I really see it without being able to touch it?"

Luo Qiao wanted to go inside to see, but Lu Yichen disagreed and a dispute ensued between the two.

With a smile at Lu Yichen, Luo Qiao sent him into the dimension before quietly opening the vines herself and tiptoeing inside. Lu Yichen almost panicked in the dimension, as Jun Zhenlin was armed with a wooden barrel.

Fortunately, there was a rock they could use to take cover. Luo Qiao quickly hid behind it. Sensing something was amiss, Jun Zhenlin called out, "Who’s there, come out."

Luo Qiao held her breath and entered the dimension before Jun Zhenlin came over. Once inside, Lu Yichen pulled her into his arms and severely scolded her, only letting go after getting a promise from her.

Lu Yichen said, "He has a wooden barrel, and he doesn’t hesitate to kill. Don’t think you’re invincible just because you have the dimension."

Luo Qiao realized she had been reckless and began to coax him, "Alright, I was wrong. I promise I won’t do it again."

Having no other choice, Lu Yichen held her in his arms, moving and reasoning with her long enough before finally taking her to eat some fruit.

Jun Zhenlin roamed the cave for quite a while but didn’t find anyone, eventually attributing it to his own over-sensitivity.

Jun Zhenlin stayed there for over an hour before leaving.

Seeing him leave, Luo Qiao prepared to come out of the dimension, but Lu Yichen stopped her, "Considering Jun Zhenlin’s suspicious nature, he might come back again. Plus, he was already doubtful earlier."

So, Luo Qiao and Lu Yichen began to organize the dimension, waiting for Jun Zhenlin’s return.

True to his words, half an hour later, the man returned, looked around, and finding nothing amiss, left again. Luo Qiao remarked casually, "He’s really gone this time, right? He won’t come back again?"

Lu Yichen replied, "We’ll leave later, in case he comes back again."

Since there was indeed enough work to be done inside the dimension, and with Lu Yichen’s help, Luo Qiao managed quite easily.

Unexpectedly, just as Lu Yichen had predicted, Jun Zhenlin came back once more. Finding nothing unusual, he shook his head and said, "It seems I was worrying for nothing."

Once he left, Luo Qiao and Lu Yichen emerged from the dimension. They watched him meet up with the others below and leave together before they moved behind the vines, searching meticulously to eventually find a well-crafted slot.

Luo Qiao took out the jade pendant Lu Yichen had given her from the dimension, exchanged a glance with him, and placed the jade pendant into the slot. The stone door in front of them slowly opened, and they walked in.

My goodness, the room was about three hundred square meters big, piled high with various boxes categorized and arranged neatly, filled with gold, silver, gemstones, jewelry, porcelain, antiques, paintings, and silver dollars. There were even quite a few books placed deeper inside.

On the cabinet near the entrance lay thick inventory ledgers. After discussing, they decided to take five boxes each of gold, gemstones, jewelry, porcelain, antiques, paintings, and silver dollars. Luo Qiao first gathered everything from one room into the dimension, picked what they needed, and then replaced the layer from the dimension above it.

This way, there was no trace of tampering. They also collected some books that interested them and took the ledger at the entrance into the dimension.

Afterward, they took out the jade pendant from the slot, and the stone door automatically closed.

The two left the place without any reluctance. It turned out that Jun Zhenlin had sprained his ankle. The descent was slower, and they managed to catch up with him. After discussing, they took a different path, descended the mountain early, and drove back to the city.

Lu Yichen directly called his grandfather, asking him to discuss with the family that a decision must be made in advance. Their conversation sounded like gibberish to others, but grandfather and grandson understood each other perfectly.

Two hours later, Old Master Gu reported the matter and donated the treasure, which was unseen by others, to the authorities, asking them to coordinate with Lu Yichen and Luo Qiao directly.

Furthermore, Old Master Gu insisted the matter be kept confidential. His only request was that the perpetrators behind the annihilation of the Huang Family be investigated. Although it was a case from the Republic era, crimes had been committed, and the culprits should not be allowed to remain at large.
