First things first, forget about systems, spies, who betrayed whom, who robbed whom, who went undercover.
Let's look at the raw silk.
Yes, divine silk of the Deity Transformation level, twisted into bundles that resembled glittering maltose. Li Fan picked one up and it felt like it weighed around ten pounds. An entire hold was filled with these, hidden in the secret chamber of the treasure ship. The compartment was made of composite materials, with a coating similar to the anti-detection bags he'd acquired from an apostle of the Legion called Axiba—probably had a similar function. Previously, when Li Fan had scanned with his Divine Sense, he hadn't even detected the existence of this secret chamber, much less the items inside. Only now that the treasure ship had completely crashed, breaking a corner, did a tray shatter, spilling the raw silk.
