Chapter 548: Shooting Blindly
Chu He quickly stepped forward, blocking in front of Chen Yu.
“Mr. Ma, isn’t this a bit too much? I have already verified it, and Mr. Chen is indeed the Sect Leader of the Xuanqing Sect, there is no doubt about it.”
Ma Chengfei didn’t care about that, taking out a dagger from his person and aiming it at Chen Yu.
“This kid appeared in the Core Tower for no reason, he must have ulterior motives! Seize him immediately, or our Sand Hollow will be destroyed by him.”
Frustrated, Chu He always felt that Ma Chengfei acted arrogantly because of his status in the Core Tower, and now he was being unreasonable in front of Chen Yu.
This could likely cause conflict between Sand Hollow and the Sect.
Chen Yu chuckled, his body suddenly flickered, appearing in front of Ma Chengfei, and lightly tapped his shoulder.
A strong current was immediately released, knocking Ma Chengfei to the ground, while the other Core Tower members were stunned, their gazes turning to Chu He.
“Mr. Ma has passed out, everyone listen to my command, disperse immediately, and go back to your duties!”
The people promptly dropped their weapons: those who should eat, ate; those who should patrol, patrolled, as if nothing had happened.
Chu He sighed deeply, had someone carry Ma Chengfei away, and then sat down in an empty spot with Chen Yu.
“Sect Leader Chen, you see, my words don’t carry much weight here. Besides Ma Chengfei, there are a few old men, they are the elders of the Core Tower! So, I can only take you on a simple tour of a few floors, please forgive me!”
Chen Yu waved his hand, “No matter, a casual look will suffice!”
Chu He immediately felt somewhat embarrassed and quickly handed a metal card to Chen Yu.
“This is a ticket to the bottom three floors of the Core Tower. With this, you can move freely within them! As for the other floors, I’ll discuss it with the elders in the tower.”
Chen Yu didn’t say much, as he had already roughly scanned the layout of the place with his system, and by just visiting the bottom three floors, he could virtually reconstruct everything inside the tower in his mind.

After eating something simple, Chen Yu took Jin Lingsu and others to the very bottom layer of the Core Tower.
This level had very few people, just several relatively young individuals with innate superpowers sitting at the workbenches, examining some antique jade wares.
This place looked like a giant collection center, filled with various treasures, dazzling to the eye, akin to a world-class museum.
The moment he entered, Chen Yu was stunned by everything here; just the two vases placed at the entrance were imperial tributes from the Qianlong era.
“Who’s there?”
A girl looking to be in her twenties suddenly jumped out, blocking Chen Yu’s path.
“This is a restricted area of the Core Tower; outsiders are not allowed in without permission. Leave immediately, or don’t blame me for being rude.”
Her candy-fierce demeanor made Chen Yu find it somewhat amusing; he directly took out the metal card Chu He gave him.
Upon seeing the card, the girl immediately became respectful and let Chen Yu in.
Jin Lingsu rushed to a display case, her face full of excitement.
“Wow, all the treasures here have been lost for years, if they were all taken out, they’d be worth at least several billion!”
Upon hearing this, the girl quickly ran over.
