God Destroying Pearl

Chapter 247 City Lord’s Treasure

The banquet ended with laughter and joy, and Song Yun went to the City Lord's Mansion accompanied by Yang Yuxuan.

The two walked side by side on the streets of Yuxu City. The afternoon sun was warm and bright, covering the city with a golden coat.

On the way, Yang Yuxuan asked softly, "Brother Song, are you really leaving tomorrow?" There was a hint of reluctance in her voice.

"My spiritual roots are quite special. My cultivation progress is slow here, so I have to leave." Song Yun nodded.

"Don't worry, I will come to Yuxu City to see you as soon as I have the chance." Seeing that Yang Yuxuan was a little unhappy, Song Yun comforted her.

"Really? You must keep your word." Yang Yuxuan said with a happy smile on her pretty face.

There was a gleam of anticipation in her eyes, and she was obviously very happy about Song Yun's promise.

"Of course." Song Yun smiled.

Not long after, the two arrived outside the City Lord's Mansion.

The guards of the City Lord's Mansion have now all been replaced by people from the Yang family.

When the guard saw Yang Yuxuan and Song Yun approaching, he bowed and said, "Greetings, Miss. Greetings, Mr. Song."

Their attitude was very respectful and they recognized Song Yun's strength.

Song Yun nodded, and then the two of them entered the City Lord's Mansion.

The City Lord's Mansion seemed a little deserted, but it still revealed a solemn atmosphere.

"Brother Song, what do you think we should do if we can't find the treasure or it has been taken away?" Yang Yuxuan asked with a hint of worry in her voice.

Her eyes revealed worry about the unknown and uncertainty about the outcome of her search for the treasure.

"That means the treasure is not meant for me. Let's look for it first. If it doesn't work, forget it." Song Yun consoled with a smile.

Yang Yuxuan nodded, and her expression relaxed a little.

Afterwards, Song Yun thought carefully about what Yun Che said before he died.

The key words for the location of the treasure that Yuxu City Lord Yun Che mentioned before his death were "in the courtyard...mountain".

Song Yun guessed that the treasure might be found in a place related to the mountain in the City Lord's Mansion.

"Miss Yang, do you know how many courtyards in the City Lord's Mansion have mountains?" Song Yun asked.

"Two places." Yang Yuxuan thought for a moment and said, she was very familiar with the layout of the City Lord's Mansion.

"Oh? Which two places?" Song Yun asked.

"One is the mansion where the city lord lives, and the other is the mansion where the meeting hall of the city lord's mansion is located." Yang Yuxuan replied.

Song Yun thought for a moment and said, "Let's go to where the city lord lives first."

He knew that the place where the city lord lived was often the best place to hide treasure because it was usually the most private and safest place.

The two soon arrived at where the city lord lived.

I didn't expect that this courtyard is so large, with exquisite layout and quiet environment.

What is even more surprising is that there is a small hill in the courtyard, covered with lush ornamental trees and plants, which looks full of vitality.

Song Yun and Yang Yuxuan searched the hill carefully, and they did not miss any place where treasure might be hidden.

Even the small plants on the hill were not spared; they checked every stone, every tree, every inch of land.

Later, Song Yun guessed that the treasure might be hidden under the hill, and he deliberately released his spiritual sense to explore the situation under the hill.

He hoped to find some clues through the exploration of his spiritual sense, but in the end he found nothing.

"Brother Song, why don't we go to the courtyard where the meeting hall is located. Maybe we will find something there." Yang Yuxuan said softly when she saw Song Yun in deep thought.

Song Yun calmed himself down, nodded, and followed Yang Yuxuan to the courtyard where the meeting hall of the City Lord's Mansion was located.

The mountain in this courtyard is different from the mansion where the city lord lives. It is actually a small rockery. It is made of carefully selected stones and has a unique shape that complements the surrounding environment.

Next to the rockery is a clear pond with a few water lily leaves floating on the water. Occasionally, a few fish swim in the water, adding a bit of vitality to the courtyard.

Song Yun walked to the edge of the pool and used his spiritual sense to explore the bottom of the pool, but found nothing.

Although the pool was clear, the bottom was clearly visible and there was no sign of any hidden objects.

Only then did Song Yun notice the rockery. He walked around it and observed it carefully.

I didn't expect that the rockery was hollow, with a space in the middle that could accommodate one person.

Song Yun bent down, stuck his head in, and used his spiritual sense to carefully explore the inside of the rockery.

The interior of the rockery was dry and empty, and nothing was found hidden except some dust and spider webs.

Song Yun couldn't help but feel a little suspicious, thinking to himself: "Isn't the real treasure hidden here, or has the treasure been taken away by someone else?"

A hint of disappointment flashed across Song Yun's eyes, but he quickly adjusted his attitude.

He knew that treasures require opportunities, and sometimes even if you try hard, you may not be able to find them.

"Brother Song, don't be discouraged. Maybe the treasure that City Lord Yun mentioned is hidden somewhere else." Seeing that Song Yun didn't find anything, Yang Yuxuan whispered to comfort him.

"It doesn't matter. I didn't have much hope in the first place. If I can't find it this time, I'll just treat it as an adventure. Wait a moment, I'll look for it more carefully." Song Yun said with a smile.

Song Yun carefully checked the two mountain settlements twice, but still found nothing.

He stood in front of the meeting hall of the City Lord's Mansion. Although he felt a little disappointed, he was not discouraged.

At this time, the sun was setting, and the golden sunlight was shining on the buildings of the City Lord's Mansion, adding a unique beauty to the mansion.

Song Yun said to Yang Yuxuan, "Miss Yang, it seems that the treasure is not for me. Let's go."

There was a hint of calmness in his voice, and he had obviously accepted the result.

Yang Yuxuan nodded to show her understanding.

Just as Song Yun turned around and prepared to leave the meeting hall in the City Lord's Mansion, his eyes were attracted by a scene in the sunset.

The golden sunlight shone on the rockery, and the shadow of the rockery stretched out on the ground, forming a "Che" character on a huge pillar in front of the meeting hall.

There was a gleam in Song Yun's eyes, and he realized that this might not be a coincidence.

He walked quickly to the pillar and carefully examined the word "Che" on the pillar. He discovered that this pillar actually had the ability to isolate spiritual consciousness.

He gently touched the place where the shadow was cast, feeling the surface of the pillar, looking for possible mechanisms or hidden compartments.

Yang Yuxuan also noticed Song Yun's actions. She walked up to Song Yun and asked curiously, "Brother Song, did you find anything?"

Song Yun did not answer. His eyes were focused. He tapped lightly on the pillar with his fingers, listening to the changes in the sound.

Suddenly, he found a tiny bulge, which was almost integrated with the surface of the surrounding stone pillars. It was difficult to find without careful observation.

Song Yun pressed it carefully, and with a slight "click" sound, part of the pillar slowly moved away, revealing a hidden compartment.
