2228 It’s Bad for the Guan Clan!
He saw that Concubine Jiang was wrapped up in a thin blanket, showing only a ghastly pale face.
“Humph.” The steward snorted and said brusquely, “A thief has just been to the Tower of Wondrous Treasures! If Sixth Young Lady discovers anything, remember to immediately report it. You must not act independently on your own.”
“The cultivation of the thief this time is rather high.”
Guan Yibo looked coldly at this snobbish steward and did not say anything else to him.
Just as the steward turned around, Guan Yibo bluntly slammed the door shut.
It infuriated the steward so much that he turned around and glared at the door. He had the urge to smash it open again.
How dare the unfavored Sixth Young Lady lose her temper with him? She simply didn’t know how recklessly she was acting. He’d make sure she would suffer in the future.
“Head Steward Hu, where should we go next?”
“We’re going back!” Steward Hu snapped, “We’re going back to check the Tower of Wondrous Treasures.”
“Head Steward, Head Steward!!” Suddenly, a frantic shout came from the meandering path.
Soon, one of the official mansion’s servants hurried to this Head Steward Hu and nearly tumbled to the floor.
“Head Steward, it’s awful, it’s awful!”
“You’re awful!” Head Steward Hu kicked that boy servant angrily. “Quickly spit it out. Don’t just be shouting all day.”
The boy servant’s waist hurt from getting kicked, but he dared not retaliate. He hastily nodded while saying obsequiously, “Head Steward Hu, just now you ordered this humble one and the guards to take an inventory of the items in the Tower of Wondrous Treasures. We subordinates d-discovered! Everything on the third floor and above, has, has! Has all disappeared!”
What?!
The items on the third floor of the Tower of Wondrous Treasures and above were mostly curious treasures black rank and higher.
There were forging materials, pills and herbs, as well as countless spiritual weapons and cultivation techniques. Basically, the Guan Clan’s entire fortune was inside!
Head Steward Hu jumped up and hastily rushed toward the Tower of Wondrous Treasures.
He cursed while running, “Didn’t I have all of you stay there and keep watch!! What happened?”
“Have you contacted the prefecture lord yet?”
After hearing the voices in the courtyard getting farther away, Guan Yibo waited for a while longer before opening the door. She looked coldly at the desolate courtyard.
By this time, Concubine Jiang was completely fine getting out of bed.
She hastily got up and walked to Guan Yibo. She held her arm and asked, “Bo’er, what happened?”
Something really had happened to The Tower of Wondrous Treasures.
Guan Yibo couldn’t help but snigger.
Just now, she had purposely not used that healing medicine so as to deliberately let Head Steward Hu see her injuries.
Today, the Guan Clan was in disarray. It seemed like someone had infiltrated the Tower of Wondrous Treasures. If her injuries had suddenly vanished, she would definitely be Head Steward Hu’s crucial investigation target.
“Mom.” Guan Yibo quickly walked to her bedside and looked at the scars on her body. She said quickly, “You don’t need to get rid of these for the moment.
“The Guan Clan is in trouble, but this has nothing to do with us,” Guan Yibo said with a cold smile, “We only need to remember to avoid getting implicated.”
At the same time, Qiao Mu was under the influence of an invisibility talisman. She held Mo Lian’s hand as she made a round through the Tower of Wondrous Treasures. She suddenly came to a halt.
