Not long after, the six men returned.

Six people in turn made signs, indicating that there was no guard in the whole City Lord Residence.

The lax security inside the residence was a total polar opposite of the strict defense outside.

Gu Qingming slightly knitted his brows.

"Did you see clearly?"

The six people nodded their heads at once.

"Have you ascertained the location of the storeroom?"

One of the young men nodded hurriedly.

Gu Qingming immediately ran to the storeroom with the six men.

The storeroom of the City Lord Residence was only secured by a lock; there was not even half a sign of a magical array. Gu Qingming very easily unlocked the door and quietly stepped into the storeroom.

The whole storeroom was illuminated by light-congealing crystals, and one could see that a variety of rare treasures were placed inside the rows of rosewood cabinets.

Even these Silver Hands’ members, who were used to seeing rare treasures, could not help but suck in a mouthful of cold air when they saw this trove of treasures.

"Could... could we add other things to our plan?” A man wiped the drool on his mouth. His eyes were full of treasures and he was very dazzled. Shen Yanxiao's storeroom was no worse than a state treasury. There were even many good things here that could not be seen in the state treasury of the four countries.

The six members of the Silver Hands were not calm at all. Their eyes were green with greed, wishing that they could steal back all these treasures.

Gu Qingming shook his head.

Although he was also surprised at the extreme wealth of Shen Yanxiao's family, the Silver Hands had the rules of the Silver Hands. Apart from the things indicated in the notification letter, they would not take any other thing.

"Find those five things right away." Gu Qingming said in signs.

The six men immediately moved separately.

In the darkness, there was not a single sound in the huge storeroom. Even if someone passed by, that person would absolutely not expect that there were seven big living people standing inside, looking for five treasures everywhere.

"Got it!" The six people soon found the five treasures. They wrapped them in cloth bags and stuffed them all in Gu Qingming's storage ring.

With their goals in hand, Gu Qingming directly turned away without any trace of reluctance, and left with his men.

It was not until the seven figures disappeared from the City Lord Residence that five figures came to the storeroom.

"They're gone?" Tang Nazhi opened his eyes wide and looked around, but found not a bit of traces. The lock in the storeroom remained the same, and there was no trace of it being forcibly opened.

If it hadn’t been for Shen Yanxiao suddenly asking them to come and have a look, they would have never thought they had been visited by thieves.

Actually...

Until this moment, Tang Nazhi still had some doubts.

"They’re gone." Shen Yanxiao went in front of the storeroom, touched the intact lock and looked at it.

"Their lock picking skills are good."

"What?" Tang Nazhi was stunned.

Shen Yanxiao said, "There are no scratches on the lock. Obviously, the other side is quite skilled in picking a lock."

Tang Nazhi stared at Shen Yanxiao and listened carefully to her analysis.

But before he could ponder over her words, he saw that the lock in Shen Yanxiao's hand, which was still locked just a second ago, was now suddenly opened!

He swore!

He had seen it still locked just now. He only saw Shen Yanxiao put her one hand behind her, holding the lock with her other hand. He also didn't see her holding the key. How come in the blink of an eye, it was unlocked suddenly?

"Little Xiao you... How did you do that?" Tang Nazhi swallowed his saliva and asked.

Shen Yanxiao blinked her eyes at him and lifted the hand holding the lock. On the side of her middle finger, a thin wire was quietly attached.

"..." Tang Nazhi completely kneeled in admiration!
