In a flash, his body disappeared.

When he appeared again,

Xuanqing had arrived in a sealed secret room, with surveillance cameras faintly glowing in the corners of the walls.

These were not important, though.

What was important –

Countless shiny gold bars, cut into neat shapes like weight blocks, were piled on the floor.

Gold!

What came into view was… a dazzling golden scene, shining under the light.

Xuanqing’s eyes narrowed slightly, surprised in his heart.

Of course,

He wasn’t amazed by the amount of money the gold was worth, but by the immense wealth and humanity’s energy he felt within the gold bars.

Just think about it.

Almost all humans on Water Blue Star use paper money now, and there are only two primary things underlying it-

Either oil, which determines the issuance of banknotes based on its quantity or gold, which determines the issuance of banknotes based on its quantity.

“The treasures in the real world are indeed endless!”

Xuanqing couldn’t help but exclaim.

The next moment –

He waved his duster, and thousands of dust tails shot out, wrapping all the gold bricks in the vault.

“Take them!”

On the other hand,

the monitoring room in Sakura Bank.

Two uniformed security guards were smoking and playing with their phones.

Their job was simple: guard the monitoring room and glance at the monitor from time to time to make sure it didn’t break.

“Damn it!” a security guard cursed as he lost a game on the screen. Visit nov𝒆lbin(.)c𝒐m for the l𝒂test updates

“So boring-”

The other security guard didn’t play on his phone, he just lowered his head to smoke, looking listless.

The job paid well, but it was too boring. Once they entered the monitoring room, they couldn’t leave halfway and had to wait for a shift change.

“Just wait a bit longer, Matsushita’s team will come to replace us soon!”

“One more round, I won’t believe it, there’s no way I can’t beat this small game!”

The phone-playing guard cursed and was about to start another round when…

Suddenly,

The monitor on the wall flickered, and then the gold bricks in the surveillance image disappeared without a trace.

This scene-

made the smoking guard freeze, and the cigarette in his hand unconsciously dropped to the ground.

He rubbed his eyes before looking at the monitor again, only to find that it was still empty. The once-overflowing gold was gone.

“Wh… what?”

The man muttered indistinctly.

It took him a while to regain his composure, and then he frantically grabbed his companion’s shoulder and shook him, “The vault… the vault… gold…”

“Gold your mom’s head, you bastard! You made me lose again…”

The game-playing security guard snapped back, then subconsciously glanced at the monitor only to freeze, dumbfounded.

The gold vault… was gone!

The two looked at each other and saw the shock in each other’s eyes. In the small monitoring room, their hearts pounded wildly.

“Quick… tell the president…”

Moments later,

An old man, with white hair and dressed in a loose kimono, leaned on a crutch and followed a group of security guards, passing through layers of checkpoints to open the vault door.

Creak…

As the last blast-resistant metal door opened,

What they saw was… an incredibly clean vault that didn’t even have a speck of gold dust left.

Seeing this,

“Huh-”

The old man’s eyes widened, blood oozed from the corner of his mouth, and he stiffly fell backward.

He knew he was done for, and not just him, but his entire family, and even the whole country… was done for.

“Mr. President… What’s wrong with you?”

“Mr. President, wake up… Mr. President…”

Everyone panicked and hastily tried to help the old man. They pinched his acupoints and performed CPR… after using a whole series of methods- “Puh~”

Finally,

The old man vomited blood, waking up with a faint life. But his hair turned more withered, and his whole person appeared feeble.

Seeing this,

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief. The president’s status in the Sakura Country was extraordinary, and they couldn’t afford to have anything happen to him, or they would all be doomed.

At this moment,

Ding-ding-

The ringtone of a phone rang out.

The old man tremblingly reached his waist and took out a specially-made phone, pressing the answer button.

“Hello…”

“Mr. Jin, it’s bad! The No.2 vault, N0.3 vault… N0.10 vault, all the gold….”

Plunk-

The phone fell to the ground.

The old man’s face turned pale. He was drenched in sweat, panting heavily.

“He…he…”

His once pale face turned black at an alarming rate, and finally, blood flowed from his eyes.

He died right there!

Seeing this,

Everyone around the old man woke up like a dream, and they all screamed out in pain:

“President Jin~”

“President Jin is gone!”

Let’s not say how the people of the Sakura Country lived their days after losing 700 tons of gold.

On this side,

In the Qingping Mountain Taoist Temple,

Xuanqing was sitting cross-legged, his face expressionless.

This trip took half an hour and harvested more than 700 tons of gold-filled wealth.

“I don’t know if more than 700 tons is enough, but for now… just use it!”

“First, enter the game and practice!” murmured Xuanqing softly.

Anyway,

If it’s not enough, he could always go to other countries like the top-ranked Beautiful Country, which would be a great target.

It’s just located across the ocean, a bit further away, it’d need an extra ten-minute journey..
