As expected, a horse without night grass won't grow fat, and a person without ill-gotten wealth won't become rich.
Yu Xian then discovered a large amount of gold, estimated to be at least one hundred jin, in Scott's storage ring.
The price of gold has been rising steadily, on par with silver as the most expensive metal; however, silver's price has been intentionally inflated by the Blood Clan's capital, while gold is genuinely rare.
Gold is the most important medium for alchemy; alchemical products like magic stones and philosopher's stones all require large quantities of gold.
Yu Xian calculated that if he sold all this gold, he would instantly become a billionaire.
Although the so-called billionaire was just a small wealthy person who had just reached a minor goal.
Yu Xian was already thinking about buying a new house.
The community he currently lived in was, after all, a place for ordinary people, and he often felt constrained, fearing he might affect others.
If conditions allowed, he still wanted to buy a larger house, preferably a private detached villa with a large garden, so he could sunbathe freely in the garden and even exercise his abilities there without worrying about affecting others.
"One hundred million should be enough."
Yu Xian recalled the housing prices in Silver City and calculated in his mind.
Silver City had just experienced an Alienated Insect disaster not long ago, and housing prices had dropped significantly; houses that used to cost four or five hundred million now sold for one or two hundred million, and some less desirable locations could be bought for seventy or eighty million.
It could be said that if one needed to buy a house in Silver City, now was the best time.
Next, Yu Xian continued to inventory Scott's assets.
Scott might have had a habit of collecting and hoarding spoils of war; his storage space contained a large number of second-hand equipment.
Because there were too many types of weapons, and some equipment was even engraved with the original owner's name, Yu Xian clearly knew that these were theoretically stolen goods; either the original owner had died, or they had been robbed by Scott.
Yu Xian categorized the weapons and carefully inspected each one.
The quality of a weapon actually had no necessary connection with the strength of its wielder; a weakling might also possess a divine artifact, and adventurers fresh out of the beginner village still had their beginner swords.
In fact, there were indeed good items among these weapons and equipment.
For example, a certain second-generation heir who had just left his sect used a Dragon-level treasure sword; Scott had collected the sword after killing him and had never used it since.
Yu Xian finished counting this equipment and estimated that if he sold it all, he could earn at least five or six hundred million.
He felt a bit numb; killing one Scott made him so rich, if he killed a few more in the future, wouldn't he become the richest man in Silver City in minutes?
Killing and arson bring wealth.

Yu Xian decided to keep the gold and not sell it, and all the equipment he didn't need would be sold to the Headquarters.
Qilin Headquarters had always been recycling various transcendent equipment, mainly because various squads were very short of transcendent-level weapons and equipment.
According to protocol, weapons and equipment confiscated from criminals would first be publicly displayed by Qilin to transcendent beings, and the owner or the victim's parents/relatives would be contacted to inform them that the perpetrator had been apprehended and to ask if they wished to redeem the weapons and equipment.
If the other party did not wish to pay to redeem them, the weapons would enter the official store, where members of various squads could purchase them.
In the world of transcendent beings, laws are limited to within the city; once outside the city, it is the law of the jungle, where the strong prey on the weak.
This was also the reason why transcendent beings had to pay to redeem equipment.
Qilin Headquarters killing the perpetrator was considered helping with revenge, and the spoils of war naturally belonged to Qilin Headquarters; this was a game rule acknowledged by all transcendent beings.
When Yu Xian learned these rules, he was still curious why it was necessary to publicly display them and even contact the owner.
Later, he learned the necessity of doing so from one of the archives: several hundred years ago, when Qilin Headquarters didn't have this rule, a team member, holding a weapon confiscated from a criminal, was mistakenly believed to be the perpetrator by the victim's father and was tragically killed.
After this case, Qilin Headquarters promulgated this regulation, and it has been enforced ever since.
In fact, many parents of missing persons always pay attention to the Warriors' Police Force website, both hoping to get news of their children and fearing that their children's weapons might appear on the public display website.
Yu Xian looked at Scott's spoils of war and knew that in the future, hundreds more parents would probably be heartbroken.
Around nine in the evening, the Perfect Creature finally died.
Perhaps because it could no longer photosynthesize at night, the energy in its body was insufficient to continue repairing its injuries, and it eventually died, its flesh withered and dried, its body like sun-dried straw at the time of death.
After confirming the Perfect Creature's death, Jin Dajun and Ou Huchen each left; both had taken time out of their busy schedules to provide aid, and now that the matter was resolved, they naturally had to return to their own affairs.
The Evil Extermination Squad, carrying the Perfect Creature's corpse, passed through a bubble and returned to the office; the Perfect Creature's corpse would be transferred to the Headquarters for research, and Yu Xian, Zhang Shou, Gong Qian, and Qingniao discussed it and decided to rest for the night, leaving everything else for tomorrow.
Currently, all clues about the potion were in Yu Xian's mind, and 'Peng Zu' must have gone into hiding; even the 'Peng Zu' that Hu Weijie had always seen was just a disguise, so there was no point in rushing.
Yu Xian returned home.
He first fought against the Perfect Creature, and then engaged in a battle of wits and courage with Scott and Nightwing.
Even if his body wasn't tired, his mind was somewhat exhausted, so after showering, he simply lay on the bed and fell into a deep sleep.
The next day.
Yu Xian and Zhang Shou first returned to school; the process was uneventful.
After school in the afternoon, the two came to the office, where Yu Xian, with the assistance of staff, perfectly recreated Peng Zu's appearance; if Peng Zu had ever appeared in public with this appearance, he would certainly not escape investigation.
Then Yu Xian took out a large amount of equipment, had the staff inventory it, and subsequently sold it all to Qilin Headquarters.
Qilin Headquarters certainly wouldn't lose money, and Yu Xian also benefited, directly becoming a small local tycoon with several small goals achieved.
After finishing his own matters, Yu Xian leisurely returned to Jin Sheng's office; Zhang Shou was lying on the sofa playing games, while Gong Qian and Qingniao were quietly discussing clothing and fashion.
Yu Xian sat on a single sofa and asked, "Who's free this weekend?"
"Not free, I saw a good mission and plan to go to Rong City," Qingniao immediately said.
Under normal circumstances, squad members didn't really gather much; everyone sought out missions suitable for themselves, striving to earn merit and become stronger.
This time, due to a series of events like the Alienated Insect, Zhou Tai, Demos, and the Perfect Creature, they had gathered for such a long time; now that various matters had come to an end, and Peng Zu couldn't be found in a short time, Qingniao would leave after Saturday's memorial service.
"Qingniao and I will go together," Zhang Shou raised his hand at this point.
Yu Xian asked in surprise, "You're going to Rong City?"
"Yes, I also need to work hard to become stronger; I can't always just be a spectator," Zhang Shou nodded, uncharacteristically serious.
This mission was a big blow to both Qingniao and Zhang Shou; neither of them had played any role, and if it weren't for Yu Xian, Qingniao would already be dead.
And Zhang Shou had been watching the entire time, as if everything had nothing to do with him.
When Yu Xian went to intercept Scott and Nightwing, Qingniao and Zhang Shou reached a consensus that they must catch up and at least not become a burden to the squad.
Since the two really had plans, Yu Xian could only look at Gong Qian, but Gong Qian also said she had private matters to attend to.
Yu Xian felt helpless, and the image of a golden Dai Tou E suddenly appeared in his mind; since everyone else was busy, why not try asking Nora?
