Chapter 775 - Chapter 775 Underground Chamber of Commerce
Chapter 775 Underground Chamber of Commerce
Lu Yu walked into the machine, and the machine’s door closed as it began to scan Lu Yu’s entire body.
Outside the machine, Hu Dao and his few underlings looked at the machine running and smirked.
“I can’t wait to see what level he is at!”
“I’m sure he’s less than 20 years old. At the maximum, he will be at Gold Rank.”
“Are you crazy?” Hu Dao immediately turned around and retorted angrily. “Are you suggesting that he has the strength of a Gold Rank at the age of 20? You think we are in his dream?”
“He’s at most a Silver Rank 5. It’s wishful thinking for his strength even to reach Gold Rank!”
“Moreover, he’s an office worker, so he doesn’t have time to cultivate. Perhaps it’s an overestimation to say he’s at Silver Rank!”
At this moment, Hu Dao’s gaze landed on Han Xuefei.
Han Xuefei was wearing a tight black suit and a short black skirt. Her snow-white, slender legs were more than capable of making one’s mouth dry.
Her beautiful face also made passersby linger for a moment before leaving.
Hu Dao’s heart raced as he walked over shamelessly.
“Hello, gorgeous. My name is Hu Dao. I’m now at Gold Rank 1. How about we be friends?”
Han Xuefei glanced at him and replied coldly, “No, I’m not interested in you.”
Seeing how cold she was, like an icy beauty, Hu Dao got even more excited.
“My family is within the top 50 in Central City, and I can give you anything you want. My family is rich, so you won’t have to work anymore. How about I support you?”
Hu Dao was direct in saying that he wanted to take care of Han Xuefei.
Hearing this, Han Xuefei was a little angry.
“There are quite a lot of rich people in the Central City. You, a member of a family that only ranks in the top 50, dare suggest being my sugar daddy?”
Hu Dao frowned slightly. “What do you mean by that? Are you looking down on the Hu family? You’re not even a socialite; don’t overdo it!”
“Get lost, or I’ll kill you!” Han Xuefei was furious and rebuked him mercilessly.
Immediately, a shocking killing intent erupted from her body, scaring Hu Dao into retreating. He immediately felt the powerful aura from Han Xuefei’s body and knew she was definitely not someone he could afford to provoke.
He backed away and looked at Han Xuefei nervously, swallowing a mouthful of saliva.
He could feel that Han Xuefei wanted to kill him that instant.
“Just treat it as a joke. Please don’t mind…”
He hurriedly explained.
At this moment, Lu Yu’s machine came up with some results.
The display above the machine showed Lu Yu’s current strength.
The big word ‘Diamond’ was particularly eye-catching, and the rank displayed behind it was Rank 1!
Lu Yu’s strength was Diamond Rank 1! Seeing this scene, Hu Dao hurriedly rubbed his eyes and said in disbelief, “That’s impossible; Diamond Rank 1? What kind of joke is this?”
He refused to accept such a result, especially when Lu Yu looked so young. How could he have such strength, Diamond Rank 1? The Hu family’s strongest did not even have such might!
Lu Yu walked out of the machine.
“Diamond Rank 1? Well, this is beyond my expectations. I thought I was still at Platinum.”
Lu Yu walked out, and a smile appeared on Han Xuefei’s cold face.
“In this case, we have two Diamond Ranked cultivators on our team. I’m sure we won’t have to be afraid of most forces now.”
Lu Yu walked over and nodded slightly.”That’s right. However, I still need to continue strengthening myself. I need to do everything I can to get stronger!”
The enemy’s strength was too strong, so Lu Yu did not dare to even relax for a moment.
Hu Dao, standing to the side, widened his eyes and could not even blink.
“Two Diamond Rankers, this… this is ridiculous!”
He quickly walked toward Lu Yu and asked respectfully, “Sir, what is your name? My family, the Hu family, is weak and needs the protection of a strong cultivator. Do you think you can…”
Lu Yu quickly waved his hand and refused. “You want me to be your family’s bodyguard? Save it.”
“We’ll pay a lot of money! To tell you the truth, a mysterious organization has recently threatened our family. If we don’t join them, we’ll be ostracized, and our family will disappear!”
Hearing this, Lu Yu’s interest was piqued.
“What organization? You are saying they are forcing you to join them?”
“A small-scale Chamber of Commerce, at least in name.”
“This organization is called the Underground Chamber of Commerce. The president of the Chamber of Commerce is not Qin Kang but someone else. No one knows who’s the president!”
Lu Yu frowned slightly and asked, “Doesn’t the Qin family know about this organization?”
It would be hilarious if the Qin family did not know about such a blatant underground organization.
“Of course they know, but so what? This organization is too mysterious. No one knows where they meet up, and the people involved are completely unknown. There’s almost no evidence to prove they existed!”
“So, even if the Qin family sent someone to investigate, it always ended up with nothing of value.”
Lu Yu turned to look at Han Xuefei, and she nodded slightly. The two of them understood instantly that this was their breakthrough point.
“Why aren’t you guys considering joining that organization?” Lu Yu asked.
“Well, of course, it’s because we’re already members of the Star Science Chamber of Commerce. We’ll be punished if we join other Chambers of Commerce and are discovered.”
“In other words, once we join, we will be controlled by this organization. We will have no choice but to only listen to their orders from then on.”
Lu Yu still felt something was off. How could this unnamed Chamber of Commerce easily control so many companies under the Qin Group’s watchful eyes? It seemed their methods must be extraordinary! “Can you still join the Underground Chamber of Commerce?” Lu Yu asked.
“Brother, I want to hire you as our bodyguard to prevent us from being threatened with joining an underground organization. Why are you trying to ask me to join them?” Lu Yu nodded calmly.”That’s right; I want you to join them. That way, I can investigate this so-called Underground Chamber of Commerce.”
“Impossible; no one can investigate them. If the Qin family can’t do it, no one in Central City can!”
Hu Dao’s tone was decisive, and he did not believe Lu Yu could do it.
“It seems that in your heart, the Qin family is a very powerful family.”
“Of course?” Hu Dao stated matter-of-factly. “The number one family in the Star Science Chamber of Commerce has many strong cultivators. It’s just that they are hidden from plain view under normal circumstances!”
“If they can’t solve a problem, all we can do is avoid it.”
Lu Yu roughly knew that this underground organization was the enemy Qin Kang wanted him to deal with.
After bewitching many family businesses and controlling their lifelines, they began expanding their hold on Central City. It seemed that this was a troublesome enemy.
