Chapter 949: The Theft of the Jade Clothing

~7 min read 1,282 words

The exhibition has now begun, and because there are too many people, it is very dangerous for security; Su Yan went directly to the organizers and requested to stagger entry by appointment, which finally eased some of the pressure.

"Based on the information you received, what exactly is the background of the people coming here today?" Chen Yu asked while patrolling with Su Yan.

"It is said to be a Superpowered Person, ability unknown, who came here just for that item." Su Yan pointed to a huge glass cabinet in the center of the exhibition hall.

"Jinlü Jade Clothing?" Chen Yu took one look at the Jade Clothing, and his heart stirred, because he vaguely sensed a trace of Divine Power fluctuation from the Jade Clothing.

It seems this Jade Clothing is not simple; otherwise, it would not have alarmed forces from outside the borders.

"Yes, this Jade Clothing is not an ordinary Jade Clothing; there are Divine Scripts on it. Our experts have been studying what these Divine Scripts represent, but unfortunately, there have been no results so far." Su Yan said, "So I think the forces from outside the borders are likely targeting this Jade Clothing."

"That should be Divine Script; after the exhibition ends, I would like to take a good look at this thing." Chen Yu said thoughtfully.

"Alright, that shouldn't be a problem." Su Yan nodded slightly.

The crowd gradually grew, and many tour guides were explaining the excavation sites and origins of these cultural relics at the exhibition stands.

Those responsible for security also dared not relax; after all, this matter was not simple, and if something really went wrong, no one could afford the blame.

Suddenly, a man in the crowd rushed forward, took a hammer out of his bag, and began to strike a glass display cabinet fiercely.

The alarm bells rang out loudly; this glass display cabinet was made of special bulletproof glass, and unless it was a large-caliber sniper rifle, it would not cause any damage to the glass.

But this man's actions drew a group of bodyguards. Zhou Yuan stepped forward and twisted the man's arm, acting as if he had performed a great service: "Grab this kid for me, interrogate him thoroughly to find out what his background is—wait, I will interrogate him personally."

After saying this, the guy walked away triumphantly to interrogate the strange man.

"He just left like that? A small fry, is he worth his personal interrogation?" Chen Yu felt it was unbelievable; this kind of person is actually a captain of Tianyuan Pavilion? Is this for real?

"No choice, he's a connection hire. He wouldn't have been sent here originally, but since this guy took office, he hasn't done anything, so the connections behind him assigned him here." Su Yan shook her head helplessly.

"Alright, pay more attention. I feel that this person's appearance is just to attract attention; the big fish will appear very soon." Chen Yu said, glancing in the direction of the Jinlü Jade Clothing.

With just one look, his expression tightened; he saw a fair-skinned man standing in front of the Jinlü Jade Clothing display cabinet, and the display cabinet had been opened at some point.

The Jinlü Jade Clothing display cabinet was originally guarded by six bodyguards, but now these six bodyguards were standing there in a trance, motionless, as if they had not seen the man's actions at all.

Chen Yu shouted: "Who are you, what are you doing?"

The man's hand was already reaching toward the Jade Clothing. Hearing Chen Yu's roar, he turned his head in surprise, then quickly covered the Jade Clothing with a piece of cloth in his hand, and the huge Jade Clothing actually disappeared into the black cloth in his hand.

Chen Yu flickered his figure, quickly stepped forward, and grabbed at the man, but the man flashed, turned into an afterimage, and began to dart around the exhibition.

Chen Yu was startled; this man's movement technique was quite fast, and his hand only grabbed an afterimage. Moreover, this guy was not a Cultivator, but a Superpowered Person with an acquired awakened ability; with Chen Yu's Divine Sense, he actually couldn't lock onto him.

"Someone has stolen the Jinlü Jade Clothing in Exhibition Area 1. Everyone, seal the entrances. The opponent is a Superpowered Person, everyone take note." Su Yan quickly pressed the button on her earpiece and shouted.

The room suddenly became chaotic, and the uninformed tourists ran around like headless flies.

The response team of Tianyuan Pavilion was not bad; they quickly controlled the scene, calmed the tourists, and then led the tourists to evacuate in an orderly manner.

But just at this moment, a tourist suddenly raised his head abruptly, and a flash of blue light flickered in his eyes.

"Watch out for that person, control him." Chen Yu shouted.

The team member standing in front of that tourist quickly locked onto him. Almost at the same time he made his move, the tourist's eyes suddenly turned blood-red, and he was about to go berserk.

However, several people swarmed up and pressed him down firmly, which prevented him from breaking free.

Chen Yu quickly stepped forward and tapped the tourist's forehead with one finger. A surge of Divine Sense poured in; the faint light in the tourist's eyes flashed, and then he fell to the ground with a thud and fainted limply.

"Chen Yu, what's going on?" Su Yan ran over.

"They are not alone; they should be a super squad. They still have people mixed in the crowd. This person is skilled in mental-domain abilities and can control people's minds; he must be found." Chen Yu looked around.

"Pay attention, there are still Superpowered Persons in the crowd, estimated ability Level 2, capable of controlling people's minds to create chaos. Also, have Tianyu Pavilion immediately dispatch reinforcements of similar Mental Power experts." Su Yan quickly issued the notification.

Tianyu Pavilion is also a pavilion under Dragon Breath, containing Superpowered Persons gathered from all over the world. For this kind of scene, it is better to use experts of their own kind.

Suddenly, a man with a small mustache wearing a duckbill cap in the crowd caught Chen Yu's attention. This person was short and inconspicuous in the crowd, but the huge package on his back caught Chen Yu's attention.

This person was about to evacuate, and Chen Yu roared: "Stop."

The man with the mustache was slightly startled; he had already reached the door and was about to leave with his cap pulled low.

Chen Yu flashed his figure and chased after him. The man with the mustache saw the situation was not right, opened his right hand, and gripped a fist in mid-air.

The moment his fist clenched, the five armed guards beside him suddenly became sluggish, and then the guns in the five men's hands turned around, ready to fire at Chen Yu.

Chen Yu quickly swept past the five men, pointed his right hand into the void, and sent five bursts of finger force toward them. *Puff, puff, puff*, the five men groaned and fell to the ground, and the man with the mustache ran out the door.

This man with the mustache's ability is Mental Power control, and his running speed is also very fast, but compared to Chen Yu, his running speed is about the same as a duck's.

With a flicker of his figure, Chen Yu was already behind him. Chen Yu reached out to grab the backpack on his back. The guy was startled; he grabbed with his right hand, pulled a Dagger from his bag, and stabbed fiercely at Chen Yu.
