My Super Beautiful Lady Boss-Chapter 662 - 652: Treasure Digging

Su Xuan, Qiuyue, and Song Shuangshuang were already on their way up the mountain, and at this time, the Song Family had become quite tumultuous.

It started when Jing Gangzhi returned to his room and found the door shattered, which had been kicked to pieces by Su Xuan when he rescued Qiuyue.

Observing the extent of the door’s destruction, Jing Gangzhi knew for certain it was the work of a master, moreover, a master cultivator. At that time, the foot strength Su Xuan wielded was of the Foundation Establishment period.

Then the Song Family noticed their Gulfstream jet had been flown away by someone, and Qiuyue had mysteriously disappeared.

Li Tianming had been proclaiming within the Song Family that Su Xuan had returned, but no one believed it because Su Xuan had been killed by Jing Gangzhi, a fact many people following Li Tianming had witnessed, which was an undeniable truth.

Therefore, no one believed that Su Xuan could come back from the dead, and regarding the stranger who came to the Song Family, everyone was very curious; after taking the jet, the person unexpectedly returned it, then vanished again, which baffled the members of the Song Family.

Although Li Tianming was the person who had witnessed Su Xuan that night, since he was backed by a great expert like Jing Gangzhi, he was no longer fearful of Su Xuan.

As for Qiuyue’s sudden escape, Jing Gangzhi blamed it on Li Tianming, accusing him of intentionally untying the ropes, wanting to have his way with her when she managed to escape accidentally; Li Tianming, with tongue tied, simply chose not to explain.

Jing Gangzhi had intended to take Qiuyue as his disciple for future Dual Cultivation purposes, but now, upon hearing that Song Tianbao’s treasure hiding place contained the Heavenly Mountain Snow Lotus, he no longer pursued the matter of her escape and instead focused on the Snow Lotus.

Now, although Song Tianbao was the Family Head of the Song Family, he had been overshadowed by Li Tianming with the support of a group of experts, who were forcing him to reveal the exact location of those treasures.

"I really don’t know where the treasures are hidden."

Song Tianbao looked distressed, his face drawn long like that of a donkey.

"Old man, better speak up quickly and save yourself some pain. You say you have no money, yet that Gulfstream jet on the hill behind is yours, isn’t it?"

Li Tianming threatened.

Song Tianbao still had some backbone and said to Li Tianming, "Tianming, I was an old friend of your father, how can you treat me like this? If he knew about this, he wouldn’t spare you."

"Heh, don’t bring up my dad to me. My decision is his decision, and now he listens to me. Today, you’d best reveal the location of that treasure, otherwise I’ll start by cutting off one of your ears."

"You! You ingrate, to think I was going to marry my daughter to you, how ruthless of you."

Song Tianbao trembled with rage, regretting how he had almost married his daughter to such a man, cursing his own blindness.

"Whatever you say now won’t help, hurry up and reveal the location of the treasure, I’ll give you ten minutes to consider."

Having said that, Li Tianming went out, planning to return after ten minutes. Now, he was going to investigate the resources in the Song Family’s warehouse and see how much they could be converted into cash.

"I really don’t have any money, please let me go."

Song Tianbao couldn’t even save himself now and was pleading in low tones, but Li Tianming was unmoved. To deal with such an old man, one had to be merciless to stand firm.

"Anyone from the Song Family who resists, kill without mercy!"

Hearing such words from Li Tianming, Song Tianbao felt completely cold inside.

Ten minutes soon passed, and Li Tianming came back, asking, "Old man, have you thought it through? My patience is limited, don’t take me for a fool."

"I really don’t know."

"Heh, still playing tough, are you? Drag him in!"

Li Tianming dragged in a servant of the Song Family and said to Song Tianbao, "If you don’t speak, every ten minutes I’ll kill one person until every last member of the Song Family is dead."

"Li Tianming! Why are you so vicious? Your father and I were close friends, how could he have a son like you?!"

Slap!

Song Tianbao had just finished speaking when Li Tianming slapped him, saying, "Damn it, stop mentioning that old man to me, you’re no better yourself. Today, whether you speak or not, if you don’t reveal the location of the treasure, not one in the Song Family will be spared."

Seeing Li Tianming so obstinate, Song Tianbao realized that persuading him to turn around was hopeless, and he then said to Li Tianming, "Alright, I’ll talk, I’ll talk."

Li Tianming finally perked up, "That’s more like it, wise people know the times, it’s better to avoid suffering, bring me the rope for Old Master Song’s release."

Hearing that Song Tianbao was about to reveal the location of the treasure, Li Tianming’s attitude did a one-eighty, treating him amiably, almost like a dear father.

"Go on, I’m listening."

Li Tianming said with a chuckle, leaning in to listen closely.

"The location is hard to find, I still have to lead you there, but you must promise me one thing, not to harm any member of the Song Family."

"Sure, sure, no problem, I won’t touch a hair on anyone from the Song Family, can we go now?"

Li Tianming made a beckoning gesture for Song Tianbao to lead the way.

The excited group of experts following Li Tianming, upon hearing there really was a treasure location, were eager to try their luck, rubbing their hands and chomping at the bit.

"Wait a moment!"

Suddenly Jing Gangzhi called out to Song Tianbao, and Li Tianming, not knowing what he was up to, watched him nervously.

"Song Tianbao, tell me, does the place where the treasure is hidden have Heavenly Mountain Snow Lotus?"

Jing Gangzhi, who had little interest in the treasures, was a National Guardian Divine Monk from Tibet and was not short of wealth, but the Heavenly Mountain Snow Lotus was something not even money could buy. His visit to Mount Everest was not solely for money; it was more about finding the whereabouts of the Heavenly Mountain Snow Lotus.

Song Tianbao was startled, not knowing what he meant, but assured him, "Yes, plenty, with some of superior quality and some with average quality."

"Then let’s go," Jing Gangzhi said, feeling reassured. If the treasure’s location only contained some wealth, Jing Gangzhi would definitely become furious. Li Tianming had mentioned earlier that the treasure’s location included the Heavenly Mountain Snow Lotus, and to his surprise, it was true.

Li Tianming broke out in a cold sweat, thankful that Song Tianbao had affirmed the existence. If Song Tianbao had said otherwise, Jing Gangzhi might have sought him out to assign blame.

So Song Tianbao led the large group of people to the Song Family’s treasure location.

Song Tianbao had never imagined he would see such a day, his steps shaky, suddenly aging a great deal. At that moment, he desperately missed his daughter, Song Shuangshuang.

Song Shuangshuang was his only daughter, and as Song Tianbao glanced into the distance, he couldn’t help but shout, "Shuangshuang, Daddy loves you!"

"Quit your stupid yelling, just move it."

Li Tianming pushed him from behind, urging him on.

Song Tianbao led them to the back mountain where snow accumulated year-round. Aside from an aircraft runway, it was hard to see any traces of human activity—the perfect picture of a frozen land stretching thousands of miles.

Soon, Song Tianbao brought them in front of a stone wall covered in ice. Li Tianming had no idea why he was brought there; this didn’t look like a place that would hide treasure.

"Where’s the treasure? Spit it out, and don’t dawdle."

Li Tianming said impatiently.

"The treasure is inside here; open it yourselves,"

Song Tianbao stepped aside after speaking, allowing others to proceed.

"There better not be any traps or mechanisms inside, you old man. Don’t try any tricks, or I’ll kill you."

Li Tianming threatened from the side. Jing Gangzhi, not wanting to waste more time, stepped forward and punched a hole in the stone wall, then moved aside, letting the laborers begin to break through the wall. In no time, they had carved out an entrance the size of a door.

"Go on in, the treasure is inside,"

Song Tianbao stepped aside, letting everyone enter.

"Damn it, stop playing games with me. You lead the way, hurry up!"

Li Tianming couldn’t help but give Song Tianbao a kick in the rear; the old man was so resistant to taking the initiative.

Having no choice, Song Tianbao had to lead the way, walking into the dark cave. A chilling breeze made everyone involuntarily break out in goosebumps.

After walking inside for a few minutes, they came across a large door with a dragon and tiger pattern, and the surrounding wall lamps mysteriously lit themselves.

A bright light filled the area.

Song Tianbao went to the wall lamp, turned it left three times, then right three times, and following a thunderous boom, the door gradually opened.

The moment the door opened, a golden glow rushed out, so bright it made it difficult to open one’s eyes. Once their eyes adjusted to the light inside, they saw dozens of chests full of treasures, innumerable precious items.

Whoosh!

Many people rushed in, and Li Tianming was among the first, dazzled by the troves of treasure. Jing Gangzhi also entered, but couldn’t find any trace of the Heavenly Mountain Snow Lotus.

"Where’s the Heavenly Mountain Snow Lotus? I don’t see it,"

Jing Gangzhi asked Li Tianming.

"Keep looking carefully, it’s definitely here if Song Tianbao said it is,"

Li Tianming responded, holding a necklace from the Song Dynasty, looking at it from different angles, unable to part with it. If taken outside, it would certainly fetch a high price.

"Nobody move, this belongs to the Li Family."

Li Tianming told the others. But with so many treasures in front of them, who would listen to Li Tianming’s orders? They kept stuffing their pockets.

"The fuck, you don’t listen to me anymore?"

Li Tianming angrily yelled at those grabbing the treasures.

Unfortunately, nobody paid him any heed.

Li Tianming, enraged, said to Jing Gangzhi, "Kill a few for me, and I’ll pay you more."

Jing Gangzhi this time didn’t listen to Li Tianming but instead turned to him and said, "What’s a higher price? Is it higher than the value of these treasures?"

Jing Gangzhi asked seriously.

"If you listen to me, I’ll give you a Heavenly Mountain Snow Lotus!"

"Where will you get it from?"

Jing Gangzhi inquired.

"The wealth and businesses of the Li Family are vast. Do you think we can’t come up with a single Heavenly Mountain Snow Lotus? You underestimate us,"

Li Tianming asserted firmly.

"Okay, we’ll cooperate one more time,"

With that, Jing Gangzhi leapt up, kicking the stomach of a man grabbing treasure. The man immediately vomited blood and, after rolling on the ground a few times, died.

"Haha, you all saw that, right? If you dare touch my things again, this is what you get!"

Li Tianming told the others.
