Chapter 227 The Function of the Five Jade Pendants (1/2)
Reading Settings
Yan Yu shifted his gaze from the dazzling golden light back to Ruan Tang's face.
"This money must not pass through anyone's hands."
His voice was serious and earnest: “We don’t have much time, so we can’t implement everything one by one. The most effective way is to send these directly to where they are most useful.”
In this day and age, such a large sum of wealth is of great importance to the entire Yan Kingdom.
Every minute of delay is a betrayal of those ancestors who risked their lives to achieve all of this.
Without saying anything more, he turned around and walked to a black lacquered wooden box. With his tall frame bent down, he used the box as a table.
Yan Yu quickly took out paper and pen from his spatial storage and wrote a sentence on the paper: "The donated wealth will be used for the benefit of the people."
The handwriting isn't particularly beautiful, but it has a sharp and unrestrained quality, yet each stroke carries a sense of solemnity.
Just as Yan Yu was writing, Ruan Tang also moved.
She walked to the mountain of boxes, made a hand seal, and water elemental energy flowed from her fingertips, rapidly weaving in mid-air as if weaving an invisible pale golden net.
The net slowly descended, silently blending into every box, every gold bar, and every gem.
This serves as a safeguard and a verification for everyone who handles this wealth.
If anyone dares to have any ill intentions towards this money, this spiritual light will enter their soul, burn their heart, devour their luck, and bring them utter misfortune.
As the last ray of golden light merged in, Ruan Tang felt a beam of golden light enter her body, nourishing her spiritual field and purifying the spiritual energy around her.
However, the Heavenly Dao's repulsion against her intensified, and Ruan Tang had to perform another hand seal to suppress the repulsion.
Just as Yan Yu finished writing the last word, he looked up and his dark eyes locked onto her pale face.
His eyes narrowed sharply, and with a long stride, he was beside her in a flash.
The next second, Ruan Tang felt herself being lifted into the air, and he picked her up horizontally.
His scalding heat penetrated through the thin fabric of his clothes, dispelling the coldness in her hands and feet.
"What did you do?"
His voice was low and deep, ringing in her ear, carrying a hint of heartache and anger.
His rough fingertips gently brushed across her cheek and forehead, confirming that the little girl was not sick, and he knew that she must have done something behind his back.
Ruan Tang leaned softly against his hard chest, greedily inhaling his pleasant, cool scent, which helped ease the dizziness from exhaustion.
She tilted her head back, her lips curving upwards, revealing a slightly weak but also smug look, like a little fox who had succeeded.
"We insured them and gained some benefits, but the repulsion became even stronger."
Yan Yu lowered his head, looked at her intently, and didn't ask any further questions.
He understands.
His little girl always has her own way of using her own strength to protect what she feels she should protect.
He stuffed the folded paper, along with the letter from the Ruan family ancestor and the blackened photo frame, into Ruan Tang's hand.
"Keep it safe."
Ruan Tang obediently put the items into her spatial storage.
The next second, Yan Yu's arm tightened suddenly, and his unfathomable eyes swept across the entire mountainside.
There was no sound, and no warning whatsoever.
One second ago, hundreds of large, golden boxes, piled up like a small mountain, vanished into thin air.
The entire mountainside was instantly emptied, leaving only echoes and dust.
