Chapter 1040: Black Market
Chen Yu said indifferently, "You don't need to play any little tricks in front of me. I've traveled far and wide, and your little tricks can't fool me at all."
"Brother Chen, don't be angry." Zhang Qiang's face was now piled with smiles. "I know the previous few matters made you unhappy, but there's no help for it. You know, we people are careful in our work; after all, sometimes we walk in the gray areas."
"There's a gathering in Fengluo Village today. I'll take you to see it. The people inside are all extraordinary, the kind who understand Magic. I'll take you to see them," Zhang Qiang said with a smile.
"Fine, I'll trust you one more time. I hope you won't disappoint me this time." Chen Yu nodded slightly. He no longer gave Zhang Qiang face now; with this kind of person, the more face you give him, the more he will take advantage. Only this lukewarm attitude could make him pay more attention to you.
"Good, don't worry, Brother Chen. The people coming this time are not ordinary, and the things you want, I definitely have here," Zhang Qiang grinned.
Chen Yu followed Zhang Qiang to a restaurant in the center of the village. The village was large, and its black market attracted many people to hunt for treasures, so this village was effectively a small marketplace.
Of course, the environment inside the restaurant was average, and when they entered, several groups of people were already sitting inside.
"Brother Chen, these are people from nearby villages. In the last few days, the village will hold a sacrifice. My master, the Mu Clan, is the recognized Great Wizard, so everyone has gathered here," Zhang Qiang said with a chuckle.
"I understand." Chen Yu nodded and found a seat. Zhang Qiang had other intentions in bringing him here; Chen Yu was clear about that in his heart.
Zhang Qiang bringing Chen Yu here was actually to prevent Chen Yu from running away. After all, the people in the restaurant now were not ordinary people; even if Chen Yu had the thought of running, the people here could stop him.
And more importantly, the nearby villages were all dominated by the Mu Clan. Here, Zhang Qiang could be said to have a hundred responses to a single call.
Zhang Qiang answered a phone call and went outside. Chen Yu did not know anyone, so he sat there without saying a word.
"Heh, is this kid an outsider?" One of the middle-aged men, draped in robes and holding a staff, looking like a Wizard, looked toward Chen Yu.
Chen Yu glanced at the other party without answering, because the other party's attitude was extremely arrogant, and when he spoke, he looked sideways, his arrogance tinged with three parts contempt, which was very unpleasant.
"Chen Yu, what is that attitude? Do you know who this is? This is Zhu Si, the Great Clan Leader of Qianzhong Village. You had better be respectful to the Great Clan Leader, otherwise, you won't even know how you died." Lili looked at Chen Yu's attitude, and she was becoming increasingly annoyed.
"Oh, why should I be respectful to him?" Chen Yu asked in return.
"Do you know how powerful Clan Leader Zhu is? He understands the Five Elements Origin Talisman. Do you know what the Five Elements Origin Talisman is? This is a special ability of a Great Wizard; you can understand it as Magic."
Lili had long been annoyed with Chen Yu, and she had long been holding a belly full of anger toward him. Now, seeing Chen Yu with this attitude again, she was extremely displeased.
"Oh, is that so? Then tell me what I should do? Should I kowtow a few times when I see him, and then retreat a few miles?" Chen Yu sneered.
He didn't know where Lili's sense of superiority came from. These people might have some special abilities, but to Chen Yu, these were just small tricks.
Chen Yu was now an expert at the Entering the Dao Realm. In the eyes of ordinary people, these people could dig out the five elements of gold, wood, water, fire, and earth, but in Chen Yu's eyes, they were just scum.
"Chen Yu, what is your attitude?" Lili was furious. She felt that in front of this group of people with special abilities, Chen Yu shouldn't be so aggressive. She said angrily, "Don't think you're something just because you have a little stinking money."
"That's right, I have a little stinking money and I am something. You don't even have that little stinking money, how can you compare to me?" Chen Yu glanced at her.
"Chen Yu," Lili shouted, "Don't be too arrogant. This is our territory. Anyone here could pinch you to death. What's so great about having money? The Wizards and Clan Leaders here all practice Magic; they possess abilities beyond what ordinary people can imagine. Do you?"
"They do indeed have some abilities beyond what ordinary people can imagine, but what does that have to do with me? And what does it have to do with you?" Chen Yu sneered, "Your boyfriend knows how to lick, which is why Mu Xiaotian of the Mu Clan took him as a disciple."
"But his status isn't as high as you think, is it? What, could it be that with one word from you, these people could come up and kill me?" Chen Yu asked.
"You..." Lili was so provoked by Chen Yu's words that she couldn't say a word. Just then, a man wearing ethnic minority clothing walked over and whispered something into Zhu Si's ear.
Zhu Si's expression changed slightly, and then a look of ecstasy appeared. Several Great Clan Leaders exchanged glances, instantly understanding each other's intentions, so Zhu Si stood up and, leading several key figures, walked to Chen Yu's side.
"Your name is Chen Yu?" Zhu Si stared.
"Yes, my name is Chen Yu." Chen Yu nodded. "Something up?"
"Heh, I heard you obtained a Spirit Stone. Is that true?" Zhu Si sneered.
"That is the case, but I obtained this thing through my own ability. It doesn't have much to do with you, does it?"
"What a coincidence, this stone is a treasure of our Nine Great Tribes. It was lost some time ago. I don't know why it appeared in the black market. Thank you for retrieving the treasure for us." Zhu Si put on a shameless look. "You bought this raw stone for fifty thousand. Now we'll give you fifty thousand; that's fair enough, right?"
"I went to a lottery shop, spent two yuan to buy a lottery ticket, and then won five million." Chen Yu smiled. "The owner of the lottery shop says he'll spend two yuan to buy back the ticket in my hand. Do you think that's appropriate?"
"Kid, don't be ungrateful. Our Great Clan Leader is talking to you nicely. This is Fengluo Village, and the surrounding Three Towns and Sixteen Zhais are all our tribesmen. If you don't hand over this Spirit Stone, I'm afraid you won't be able to walk out of here," a man shouted.
"Chen Yu, I advise you to hand it over. No matter how important money is, it's not as important as your life. If you don't hand this thing over, I'm afraid you really won't be able to walk out of this area." Lili felt secretly pleased.
Yes, she didn't have the qualifications to order the people in front of her to grab Chen Yu and beat him up, but Chen Yu had a heavy treasure in his hands. These people were definitely jealous, and now they had started to target Chen Yu.
"What if I can't hand it over?" Chen Yu smiled slightly. "What can you do to me?"
