The Yunya Saintess wore a displeased expression.

Clenching her teeth, she looked as if she wanted nothing more than to directly swallow Bai Ruiguang alive.

Li Yun chuckled.

He could understand the Yunya Saintess's feelings. Who wouldn't hate someone who meticulously snatched away a great fated opportunity they had painstakingly found, and then tried to secretly kill them?

He would hate them too.

But what about the evidence?

Without evidence, anything said was useless. This wasn't because he was afraid of wrongly accusing someone, but rather afraid of finding the wrong person and instead alerting the real mastermind, which would be troublesome.

“It's a pity… Bai Ruiguang's strength is too great. Like you, he is a Divine Martial Realm expert. It's difficult for us to determine if he's been poisoned, otherwise everything would be clear.”

“Then what do you say we do?”

“What can I do? You are Holy Maiden Ruo, you are a Divine Martial Realm expert and you have no way. What way could I, a mere Celestial Human, possibly have?”

The Yunya Saintess rolled her eyes and corrected, “You are not a mere Celestial Human!”

Then, changing the subject,

she continued, “Forget it, no matter what, we finally have a relatively clear target. Let's secretly keep an eye on him for a while. I don't believe he won't reveal his fox tail if we watch him for a period of time!”

“Alright, that's the only way.”

“Next, do what needs to be done, just don't alert Bai Ruiguang for now…”

“Heh, I like hearing that.”

A bright smile instantly appeared on Li Yun's face.

Being a thief, how enjoyable.

Haven't you seen that just by making a move, he obtained a Profound Grade Divine Power, 【Boundless Sun and Moon】? The key is that it also involved the core temple of the Sun and Moon Divine Palace… just this alone has already been worth the price of admission.

There are so many treasure vaults. If he runs around a bit more, he might even have some more surprising gains.

Thinking of this,

Li Yun became completely energized.

Without alerting Bai Ruiguang, he quietly went up to the floors above the second floor of the Heaven Treasure Pavilion, and after netting another wave of benefits, he silently went downstairs and slipped out of the Heaven Treasure Pavilion, entering the next treasure vault.

Under the cover of shadows, it could practically be said that he was entering a place with no one around.

The night quietly passed.

Li Yun was already returning with a full load.

He had obtained no less than a hundred Profound Grade top-tier Heavenly Material and Earthly Treasure, and with other items, the value was immeasurable.

Especially three items among them.

In a black, unassuming piece of black iron ore, Li Yun actually sensed a Profound Grade spiritual fire.

In two damaged ancient paintings, through the System's trigger, he unexpectedly loaded two Celestial Human Realm cultivation techniques.

One was 【Heavenly Fire Divine Art】.

One was 【Returning Origin Divine Art】.

The two Celestial Human Realm cultivation techniques, one focused on fire, and one focused on water.

They were both relatively rare and should have originated from Reaching Heaven Realm experts who had extraordinary achievements in the fire and water elements.

These three items alone were priceless.

The Yunya Saintess, after learning what Li Yun had obtained, was speechless, and even felt a slight pang of heartache.

“You fellow, I really don't know how your eyesight is so sharp. Good things that the high-level members of the White Emperor Family didn't even discover, things that were even casually handed over to subordinates to record, were actually dug out by you.”

“If you keep stealing like this, the White Emperor Family will be emptied by you.”

“How will the White Emperor Family develop in the future? I even regret taking you to the treasure vault…”

“Hahaha, that's not my fault. If you want to blame someone, blame their own poor eyesight.”

“Besides, if I hadn't dug them out in time, a Profound Grade spiritual fire and two Celestial Human Realm cultivation techniques, I wouldn't say they would be forever buried, but at least it would take a long time for them to be discovered, right?”

“It is I who made these truly good things reveal their deserved brilliance…”

Li Yun said with a hint of smugness.

To be honest,

he actually liked stealing treasures from the White Emperor Family now.

He had developed a taste for it.

The White Emperor Family was a large and prosperous family with countless industries. Every day, people would collect various Heavenly Material and Earthly Treasure and other cultivation resources through various channels.

The quantity of these things was too large.

They were often first reviewed by the highest-level experts of the White Emperor Family. Things with great value would be placed in the main treasure vault and treated as the foundation of the White Emperor Family.

The rest would be allocated en masse to the more than twenty auxiliary treasure vaults to maintain the daily operations of the White Emperor Family.

But with such a large quantity, there were always times when things were overlooked.

Some high-value items were not discovered by the top experts of the White Emperor Family. When they reached the auxiliary treasure vaults, those with lower strength and insufficient luck couldn't discover them either, only performing simple recording and classification.

Being targeted by him in this process was simply a windfall for him.

Li Yun even felt that if he stayed in White Emperor City for a bit longer, not much, just three to five years, he would definitely become extremely wealthy.

The Yunya Saintess said angrily, “You're taking advantage and still acting smug!”

“Haha… If you get an advantage, you definitely have to act smug. If you don't act smug, what's the point of getting an advantage?”

“Alright, let's stop talking.”

“The grand show for the Third Holy Son's competition is probably about to begin, right? There's not much time, I'll go cultivation first.”

Li Yun waved his hand, directly leaving the Yunya Saintess behind. He chose a quiet room in the Yunya Saintess's residence and directly entered it, not being polite at all.

“This kid…”

The Yunya Saintess was somewhat speechless.

But when she thought of how she had lived for over a thousand years without being close to a man, yet last night she was held by a young man whose age was not even a fraction of hers.

The key was that this young man was not well-behaved and actually dared to take advantage of her.

She immediately felt a bit shy, and her face couldn't help but turn red.

Vaguely, some inexplicable thoughts, and even images, actually appeared in her mind.

This made her pretty face turn so red it was almost dripping water.

“Sigh, what am I thinking…”

After a while, the Yunya Saintess suddenly snapped back to her senses, secretly spat, and then secretly glanced at Li Yun's quiet room, leaving the residence in a bit of a panic.

This time,

she went directly to the main residence of the White Emperor Family.

She met with the patriarch, Bai Tianhuang, and officially finalized the time for the White Emperor City Third Holy Son competition to be held three days later. Then, she found an excuse to meet with some other experts of the White Emperor Family.

She wanted to see if she could find the person who administered the poison using her own methods.

Unfortunately,

it was just a waste of effort.

The Heavenly Injury Poison was too strange. Before it erupted, it was completely traceless. She didn't have Li Yun's ability to devour poison. Looking from the surface, she couldn't see any clues at all.

She simply couldn't accurately determine whether these people were poisoned or not.

Therefore, she could only give up.

Anyway, now there was a target, Bai Ruiguang, so she would just keep an eye on him for now. If it really was him, he would reveal his fox tail sooner or later.

So, she went back.

She simply closed her door as well.

Until three days later, when the time for the White Emperor City Third Holy Son competition arrived.

Only then did the two open their quiet rooms and come out!
