Chapter 950: Angel Statue

However, Chen Yu sent a burst of finger force rushing toward him. The man with the small mustache let out a muffled groan, his body flew backward, and he collapsed onto the ground with a thud. Su Yan, who had been following behind, stepped forward, twisted his arm, and handcuffed him behind his back.

Chen Yu grabbed the kid's backpack. The bag felt soft to the touch; it should have been filled with something like cotton. Chen Yu opened it and saw that it was filled with layers of white cotton gauze.

"This is a new type of cotton gauze from abroad that can block electromagnetic waves, so it won't be detected when going through security," Su Yan said. "I've encountered it when dealing with Western agents; there's something hidden inside."

Chen Yu pondered for a moment and pulled out the contents. He saw that beneath the layers of wrapped cotton gauze, there was a Crystal Statue.

This Crystal Statue was only a little over two feet tall, but it felt heavy in the hand, and there was a faint fluctuation of energy within the statue.

The man with the small mustache's expression changed drastically. He roared, "Give that back to me."

"Chen Yu, what is this thing?" Su Yan looked up and asked Chen Yu.

"There should be a type of Mental Power inside this statue. This kid's ability was likely obtained from this thing. I was wondering why this guy's Mental Power was so strong; turns out he was cheating," Chen Yu said.

"Give it back to me," the man with the small mustache said angrily. "Otherwise, you will all die."

"Shut up." Su Yan glared at him. At this moment, several men in black arrived, and Su Yan threw the man with the small mustache toward them: "Take him back."

Night, in an interrogation room.

The Jinlü Jade Clothing, the most important item in today's international exhibition, had been stolen, so the exhibition was forced to stop. More importantly, this incident had a huge impact on the Tianyuan Pavilion. The item being stolen meant the mission had failed, and the expressions on the faces of the Tianyuan Pavilion members were not very pleasant.

"Trash, are you all trash?" Zhou Yuan's roar was somewhat hysterical. He shouted, "What are you all good for? Huh? I set up the security so well, and you still let such a big item get stolen? It's all your responsibility."

Several key members lowered their heads, saying nothing. Zhou Yuan was their superior, and since the item was lost, everyone felt embarrassed, so they just let him yell a few times.

But this sentence from this guy completely pissed everyone off. Was he trying to dump all the responsibility onto his subordinates?

"Team Leader Zhou, before the exhibition started, you refused to release the detailed security layout, and you only showed it to us at the very last moment. I pointed out on the spot that the security layout was unreasonable; you admit that, right?" Su Yan was furious.

"What do you mean, Su Yan? Are you saying all these things are my responsibility? Are you accusing me? I am your leader," Zhou Yuan said angrily. "Don't think that just because you are from Heihu, I can't do anything to you. If you anger me, I will punish you regardless."

"What Su Yan said is the truth," another member spoke up. "Team Leader Zhou, the Jade Clothing in this exhibition was borrowed from the museum, and the Tianyuan Pavilion had long received news that someone would come for it."

"For several days before the exhibition, everyone worked without sleep or rest on security and finding loopholes. When it was critical and we needed your signature, you were nowhere to be found. This responsibility cannot be placed entirely on us, right?"

"What do you mean? Are you questioning me?" Zhou Yuan exploded. "It is my misfortune to be stuck with trash members like you. Trash, garbage."

"Watch your mouth. Try cursing one more time?" Chen Yu, who had been silent, could no longer tolerate it.

This matter was originally an internal affair of the Tianyuan Pavilion, and he was only here to assist. Even if something went wrong, it had nothing to do with him.

It was just that Zhou Yuan's words were truly too excessive, and his insults were too nasty. Even as an outsider, Chen Yu could not listen anymore.

"Shut up. Is there any room for you to speak here? Su Yan, is this the so-called outside help you found?" Zhou Yuan sneered. "It didn't seem to be of much use either."

"If it weren't for Mr. Chen, we wouldn't even have been able to catch the person inside," Su Yan glanced at him coldly.

"Without him, we would have caught that person anyway. Also, I heard you got an item from that kid? Hand it over," Zhou Yuan said.

"The item is with me. What do you want?" Chen Yu took out the statue. The statue was a Western Angel, and it looked like energy was surging within it; it was definitely not an ordinary object.

"Hand the item over," Zhou Yuan's eyes lit up. This item didn't look ordinary, and he wanted to get his hands on it.

"If you have the ability, come and take it," Chen Yu said indifferently.

Zhou Yuan did not hear the anger in Chen Yu's words. He stepped forward and reached out to grab the item in Chen Yu's hand.

But at this moment, Chen Yu suddenly glared at him with a sharp look.

Zhou Yuan's body shook violently, and then he flew backward with a thud. He spat out a mouthful of blood and collapsed onto the ground, unconscious.

"Starting today, Zhou Yuan is stripped of his position as Tianyuan Pavilion Team Leader, and Su Yan will serve as acting leader," Chen Yu said indifferently. "I am making this decision in my capacity as acting Pavilion Master of the Five Elements Pavilion. If you have any problems, go find your Pavilion Master."

Everyone remained silent. To be honest, seeing Zhou Yuan get humbled, the word "deserved" flashed through everyone's minds.

This guy was actually just a blowhard, bossing people around here; many people had long been unable to stand him.

But there was no help for it; this guy's uncle was an Elder in the Pavilion, so most people dared to be angry but dared not speak out, which fostered this brat's arrogant and domineering attitude.

"Chen Yu... you, what qualifications do you have?" Zhou Yuan's mouth was full of blood; this time, Chen Yu did not hold back.

"Qualifications? Based on the Five Elements Order in my hand, do you think that is qualification enough?" Chen Yu said indifferently.

"Just you wait, my uncle will not let you off," Zhou Yuan said through gritted teeth.

"Is that so?" Chen Yu grinned. Suddenly, he stepped forward and kicked Zhou Yuan in the mouth.

Pfft... This guy spat out a mouthful of blood, then collapsed onto the ground with a thud, unconscious.

"Go in and interrogate that kid. Ask about his background, and by the way, ask about his accomplices," Chen Yu said.

Walking inside, the man with the small mustache sat there without moving. Under the light, his expression was somewhat gloomy.

"Still not talking?" Chen Yu stared at the man with the small mustache.

"Heh, you are Chen Yu?" The man with the small mustache stared at Chen Yu and suddenly laughed.

"That's right, have you heard of me?" Chen Yu asked.

"Someone paid money for your life," the man with the small mustache grinned and said. "You better be careful. My boss will come to save me."

"Who is your boss?" Chen Yu stared at the man with the small mustache and asked.

"The one who took your Jinlü Jade Clothing," the man with the small mustache chuckled. "Chen Yu, you can't hide."

"There is more than one person in your team, right? And your abilities should all come from external forces," Chen Yu said. "For example, that statue. Your statue is an Angel; I've seen it. There is very strong power inside this thing. The reason your Mental Power is so strong is because of that statue, right?"
