Chapter 483 Gemstone Scam
“Little brother!”
Fox ran over excitedly from the side and hugged Chen Yu tightly.
“We haven’t seen each other for so long, what have you been busy with? You’ve lost weight!”
Chen Yu raised an eyebrow, he didn’t believe for a second that this old fox hadn’t arranged for someone to investigate his whereabouts.
He probably even knew about him becoming the Sect Leader of the Xuanqing Sect.
But the old man just loved to feign ignorance, he looked around and then took two steps toward the dock.
“Wasn’t it said that the revered Sect Leader from Xuanqing Sect would also land here? How come I haven’t seen him? Could my people have made a mistake?”
Chen Yu directly took out the specially made invitation and handed it over to Fox.
“Old sir, there’s no need to look any further, I’m the new Sect Leader of Xuanqing Sect!”
Fox pretended to be surprised.
“Oh my, you really bring glory to us Knights of the Round Table, to think that you’ve really become the Sect Leader of Xuanqing Sect!” Discover stories with Novgo.com
He reached out and gripped Chen Yu’s shoulder, enthusiastically guiding him into the venue nearby.
The place was extremely spacious, with people from many world-class organizations arriving there, discussing various business affairs with each other.
Suddenly, Chen Yu spotted Jin Lingsu in the crowd.
She was probably representing the Lakato Family, surrounded by several people dressed like wizards.
Jin Lingsu also saw Chen Yu and immediately came over with her wine glass.
“I’ve been looking for you for ages, wasn’t it said that the banquet was hosted by the Knights of the Round Table? Why didn’t you arrive earlier?”
Chen Yu chuckled lightly, “Today, I’m not here on behalf of the Knights of the Round Table, but as the representative of Xuanqing Sect!”
Jin Lingsu seemed surprised; she often mingled among various organizations and was aware of some of their strange rules.
For example, when participating in any banquet, the Sect Leader of Xuanqing Sect would always attend alone.
If Chen Yu was here on behalf of Xuanqing Sect, then it proved that he had indeed become the Sect Leader.
Immediately, Jin Lingsu’s eyes turned complex, filled much more with killing intent.
It wasn’t directed at Chen Yu, but rather at Fox standing next to him.
“Mr. Fox, Chen and I go way back. Could you give us some privacy?”
The threat in her voice surprised Fox.
Though he represented the Knights of the Round Table, behind Jin Lingsu stood the wizards of the Lakato Family.
Ever since the Lakato Family had really unified, their potential had far exceeded that of the Knights of the Round Table.
In some ways, they even overshadowed the Knights of the Round Table.
Fox immediately released Chen Yu’s shoulder and stepped back.
“Of course! Oh, by the way, there will be an appraisal event happening over there later; if you’re interested, you might want to check it out.”
Fox’s face was filled with smiles, but as he turned around, his expression became laced with murderous intent.
Chen Yu shrugged, “You’re now bold enough to confront the Knights of the Round Table!”
Jin Lingsu took out a badge from her person.
“I’m now an honorary wizard of the Lakato Family, eligible to compete for the title of ’Elder of the Mountains’.”
Chen Yu was somewhat surprised; he hadn’t expected Jin Lingsu to climb so high in the ranks of the Lakato Family after such a long time apart.
