Chapter 511 - Jiao Fang's Secret

In Jiao Fang’s residence, what Lin Mu saw could only be described as a treasure trove. There were literally mountains of gold coins and gems lying around along with spirit tools and what looked like pill bottles.

Had it not been for the basic formation that isolated the spirit Qi fluctuations coming from outside and inside the residence, the residence would have been nothing less than a bright beacon, shining in the middle of the night.

Even Lin Mu, who had a substantial amount of wealth currently was astounded on seeing all this.

"How...." Was the only word that came out of his mouth.

"Ahh~ Home sweet home," Jiao Fang said as he tossed the badge he had been wearing the entire time into one of the piles of treasure.

He then went to a bed which looked to be made out of solid jade and had a mattress made out of what could only be the finest of silk spun by an Arctic Frost Silkworm. Even the bed itself was a spirit tool that could help one in cultivation and would help one restore their mental condition when they slept in it.

While lying on the bed, Jiao Fang took out the page from his sleeve and opened it. Lin Mu took this opportunity to take a look at what was written on the page. He stood right behind the bed and leaned out slightly from the floor.

"Let’s see... where is the next clue to the inheritance..." Jiao Fang said as he read the page.

Lin Mu saw it too, but couldn’t find anything special in it. The page described some cultivation experiences of a cultivator by the name of Yulong. Lin Mu reckoned that this was the person who had made that book.

Jiao Fang read the page multiple times before nodding his head in understanding. Lin Mu on the other hand, was completely in the dark about what this all was. He was as confused as a fish in the sky and could only wait for Jiao Fang to say something.

But the man didn’t do anything and simply folded the page, putting it back into his sleeve before closing his eyes.

"Is he... sleeping?" Lin Mu questioned.

~snore~

"Oh yeah, he’s sleeping alright..." Lin Mu confirmed.

"This man is really carefree, isn’t he?" Xukong said.

"Indeed senior. All this treasure and barely any security. It’s as if he’s not scared of this getting stolen at all." Lin Mu replied.

"Though if you think of it this way... he’s hiding the things by not hiding anything at all. If he put up additional security, there is bound to be someone that notices this. Not to mention if he started to act as if he had treasure and behaved like that it would become suspicious too.

But being as he is now, there is a very minute chance that anyone would even doubt him. No one would think that an inner court disciple would have enough treasures to make even the sect master jealous." Xukong said.

"That’s true. There is no way all of this was earned by him." Lin Mu said.

"He was talking about some inheritance, wasn’t he? When he looked at that page." Xukong added.

"Oh yeah, but we didn’t find anything particular on the page." Lin Mu spoke, feeling a bit confused.

"Hmm... perhaps that’s because we don’t know the full context behind it. That page may be a small piece in a large puzzle. If we only look at it alone, it would be hard for us to understand the reality." Xukong said.

"You mean to say all of this is that inheritance that Jiao Fang was talking about and that it is not the entirety of it?" Lin Mu asked.

"Yes." Xukong replied simply.

"Hmm... if it is like that... then where did he get the source of the inheritance. Not to mention why hasn’t he used it at all?" Lin Mu said as he glanced at the alchemical pills and spirit stones that ranged from low grade to high grade.

"We can’t come to a conclusion like this. You will need to observe him more." Xukong said.

Lin Mu went silent for a bit after hearing senior Xukong’s words and nodded his head.

"Or... we can just ask him." Lin Mu suggested.

"Oh? You want to confront him?" Xukong asked.

"Yes, seeing his actions and how he’s been doing things; perhaps we can come to a certain kind of an arrangement." Lin Mu replied.

"Alright... but be careful. We don’t know if he is also being controlled by Gu Yao or not. Perhaps all of this is part of his scheme too, or something like that." Xukong advised.

"I’ll keep that in mind, senior. Don’t worry." Lin Mu said, as he nodded his head.

Lin Mu did not wake up Jiao Fang here, as he wanted to prepare a bit. He wanted to see what made the man tick and what made him act.

Thus, he took a better look around the residence and checked all the items that were in there. It was a bit hard for Lin Mu to check things due to almost stumbling on some random treasure, but he got the gist of it after a few more minutes.

Lin Mu scanned the entire residence with his spirit sense and realized that there were perhaps over ten million gold coins in the residence all piled up in small hills. There were also tens of thousands of precious gems that would make nearly any cultivator in this world jealous too.

But these were not the things that would give Lin Mu more information about Jiao Fang. What Lin Mu wanted were documents and records; letters even. He spent about an hour searching around the residence before he was able to find something worth his effort.

The thing he had found was a diary whose cover pages were made out of a thin sheet of wood that was covered in leather. The diary did not have any title written on its cover and only had inner pages that were densely filled with handwritten notes.
