Chapter 55
Jing Yuan sat up from the bed, a restless look on his face.
He hadn't slept well last night. After thinking about it for hours, he had finally come to a decision.
Just take the treasure chest. After all, it was an ownerless object—whoever defeated the monster guarding it had the right to claim it.
Jing Yuan washed up and looked at himself in the mirror. Dark circles clung stubbornly under his eyes.
At that moment, the housekeeper arrived.
"General, Lord Yanqing is back."
Jing Yuan nodded slightly. "Let him in."
The housekeeper bowed and retreated.
Jing Yuan casually splashed cold water on his face before making his way to the pavilion in the back garden. He lay down, waiting.
Before long, Yanqing arrived, accompanied by a squad of Cloud Knights, each carrying a small box.
Yanqing stepped forward and bowed. "General, the mission is complete. All the treasure chests in Luofu have been collected. But... for some reason, there seem to be fewer than expected."
