"Big brother, this can't be real, can it?"

After a moment, Qi Fang, tears streaming down her face, looked at Di Yun and tugged at his sleeve as she asked.

Di Yun sighed: "This is the result of divine calculation!"

Upon hearing this, Qi Fang felt as if a thunderclap had exploded beside her ear; she remained stunned for a long while.

She never imagined her own father was someone who betrayed his master and destroyed his lineage.

She never imagined he would even harm his own daughter, his direct disciple.

Human hearts are simply terrifying.

In the divine prophecy, Big Brother was imprisoned, and I married a heartless, cruel man.

In the end, I died at Wan Gui's hands.

Now, she finally understood why Big Brother had struck Wan Gui with such ferocity.

If she were in his place, she would do the same!

"Big brother, what should we do?" Qi Fang asked.

Di Yun: "We'll resolve the Liancheng treasure, save Ding Dian and Ling Shuanghua, then find a place to live in seclusion."

Qi Fang nodded gently: "Alright."

Originally she had still thought of her father; now, she felt only coldness in her heart.

"But Big Brother, please don't strike Father when we meet him."

Di Yun nodded: "Do you think I'm some ruthless outlaw with a black heart? He's my Master—I could never kill him."

Qi Fang nodded, her spirits sinking.

Seeing everyone gallop out of the city, Di Yun quickened his pace.

A moment later.

Di Yun and the group arrived at Tianning Temple, 623.

As they were about to enter the temple, a massive palm descended, smashing and hurling away all the outer buildings, revealing the Buddha statue within.

Di Yun shook his true qi, and immediately the clay coating over the Buddha statue cracked and fell away, revealing streams of Jin Guang.

"It's gold!"

"The entire Buddha statue is gold!"

Everyone's eyes filled with greed, their hearts surging as they rushed forward.

But Di Yun had no intention of giving them any chance.

He reached out through the air—and instantly, the golden Buddha and the underground crypt beneath it were lifted and drawn up into the clouds.

The treasure left by Emperor Wu of Liang hung suspended in the sky, as large as a small mountain, stirring fierce longing in all who saw it—but they could do nothing.

Because it was in the sky, they simply couldn't reach it.

"Young master, there's so much treasure—why keep it all for yourself?"

"Yes! If you surrender it to the imperial court, you'll surely be promoted!"

"No, just give me a share!"

Ling Tuisi and the many martial artists began pleading.

Di Yun looked at Qi Fang and smiled: "Look, aren't they ridiculous?"

Qi Fang nodded: "Yes. For money, they've lost all humanity. Big Brother, let's go—I don't want to stay here another moment."

"Alright."

"Young man, don't you think of your own Master?" Suddenly, Wan Zhenshan shouted loudly.

Di Yun turned back, waved his hand—and the ground trembled, leaving behind a massive crater several miles wide.

"Try it, all of you!"

As he spoke, the figures in the sky vanished.

The crowd stared at the enormous palm print—ten meters deep, with underground water gushing wildly out, soon turning the print into a vast lake.

Wan Zhenshan's heart turned cold; he dared not move.

Even Ling Tuisi, backed by the imperial court, dared not act rashly.

With a palm like that, what use were ten thousand soldiers?

As he pondered this, a fast horse arrived with news.

"My lord, Ding Dian has been abducted!"

"My lord, the Young Lady has been abducted too!"

Ling Tuisi froze, then roared: "Who did it?"

"I didn't see anyone—only a giant hand reached down from the sky and took them both," the servant and constables said in terror.

Ling Tuisi snapped back to reality—it was Di Yun's doing.

Thinking of Di Yun's power, and remembering that he had only captured Ding Dian for the treasure, which was now gone, he realized Ding Dian was no longer worth pursuing.

"Forget it. Let him go."

The crowd lingered unwillingly at Tianning Temple for a while, digging three feet deep, hoping to find something left behind—but found nothing at all.

Half a day later, they finally left, disappointed.

"Shuanghua, your face?" Ding Dian asked, puzzled.

Ling Shuanghua sighed: "To avoid being forced into another marriage, I destroyed my own beauty. Dian Ge, will you despise me?"

"How could I?" Ding Dian shook his head. "You're still the most beautiful Miss in my heart."

Di Yun said: "Big Brother Ding, I have a Soul-Returning Pill that can restore Ling's beauty."

Ling Shuanghua shook her head: "Since Brother Dian doesn't mind, whether to restore it or not isn't important. That kind of spiritual pill must be extremely precious. We've already received great favors from both of you—how could we ask for more?"

Ding Dian nodded, holding Ling Shuanghua's hand, his gaze still burning.

"If that's the case, once I remove the poison from this treasure, Brother Ding, take some of it and leave," Di Yun urged.

Speaking, he gathered water vapor with true qi, transforming it into flowing water.

Then he took out the detoxifying pill given by Su Xiao, dissolved it within, and poured it over the treasure.

Moments passed.

Di Yun stepped forward, picked up a pearl, secretly channeling true qi to examine it—indeed, not a trace of poison remained.

"Su Xianzi's methods are truly remarkable."

"Has the poison been removed from all these treasures?" Qi Fang stepped forward, picking up a pearl, and asked.

Di Yun nodded.

Ding Dian was startled: "There's still poison on this?"

Di Yun nodded: "And it's deadly—even a Wu Lingaoshou would die instantly if exposed!"

Ding Dian was filled with dread, grateful he had not reached for the treasure.

Otherwise, he would surely be dead by now.

"Brother Ding, take some."

Ding Dian smiled, taking only two gold ingots: "Enough. With these, Su Hua and I have more than enough."

Ling Shuanghua smiled sweetly; though her face was ruined, she carried a gentle grace that drew glances.

"Then let us part ways," Di Yun bowed. "I must find a place to retire with my junior sister!"

"Retire?" Ding Dian was surprised. "Su Hua and I are retiring too—why not join us?"

"Good," Di Yun was delighted. With true qi, he lifted the treasure and all four of them, soaring into the clouds.

Chat group.

Di Yun: "【Red Packet】The treasure has been detoxified—divide it among everyone. My junior sister and I, and Brother Ding, can't use so much."

【Ding, Li Hua Zou grabbed the red packet.】

【Ding, Xiao Qingxuan grabbed the red packet.】
