Lin Mu felt the dense spirit qi wafting out of the safe as soon as he removed the door. He looked inside and saw that the safe had two compartments. The upper compartment was the source of the spirit qi. He extended his hand and pulled out a small box that seemed to be leaking the spirit qi.

Lin Mu opened the box and found three spirit stones kept inside it. These spirit stones seemed different from the ones that he already had. These spirit stones seemed to be filled with much more dense spirit qi than the other spirit stones.

"Are these mid-quality spirit stones?" Lin Mu muttered.

"Yes, they are indeed mid-quality spirit stones. But they don't seem to be stable." Xukong replied.

"They're not stable?" Lin Mu questioned.

"You see how there is the spirit qi that is being released out of the spirit stones, that should not happen. A proper mid-quality spirit stone should not release any spirit qi and should keep it completely contained within it. These ones are damaged." Xukong answered.

"What do I do with them then, senior? I mean won't they lose all of the spirit qi and become useless." Lin Mu asked.

"You don't have to worry about that. Just put them in the ring, they won't leak any spirit qi in there." Xukong replied.

Lin Mu followed senior Xukong's advice and stored them in the ring. Then it came the turn for the next item, which had pulled his eyes the moment he had opened. This thing was shining and was very prominent to one's eyes, they were solid gold bars.

The gold bars occupied most of the upper compartment, and only a small part was taken up by the box that had the mid quality spirit stones. Lin Mu counted them and found there to be forty of these gold bars.

Each of these gold bars was the thickness of a finger and was the size of a palm. There was a special pattern engraved on each of the gold bars. The engraving read: Shuang Qian. But after reading them, Lin Mu once again felt anger rising within him.

"Where did the Town Head get all this gold? And these engravings they are of the name of this kingdom. Was he hiding all this wealth from everyone?" Lin Mu spoke with a grim tone.

"Seems like it is indeed as you thought. But now is not the time for this, you can think about it later, for now, focus on your task." Xukong advised.

Lin Mu chanted the calming heart sutra and dissipated his anger.
