Chapter 402: Chapter 402 Heavenly Master Long Tian

Jin Lingsu’s eyes were full of envy; she hadn’t expected Chen Yu to stumble upon such a windfall upon his arrival.

Just as she was about to step forward and help Chen Yu gather the gemstone, she suddenly became aware of several hostile gazes fixed on their location.

Jin Lingsu was instantly alert and grabbed the golden spike at her waist.

Chen Yu suddenly stopped her.

“It’s better not to start a fight in a place like this, I haven’t figured out the specific rules here yet,”

Jin Lingsu sighed heavily. She hadn’t been about to act, and it seemed like there had been no issue.

As they were collecting the gemstone, a figure suddenly appeared before them.

“Mr. Chen, you’ve finally arrived,”

Chen Yu frowned slightly, not having expected Fox to have already arrived here.

“Mr. Fox, long time no see!”

After exchanging a few pleasantries, Fox grabbed Chen Yu by the arm and pulled him into an alleyway.

The place seemed to be just a dark, damp alley, but a few steps in revealed a whole new world.

Descending a highly concealed staircase, they came upon an exceptionally vast space.

Dongming Canyon actually had a fourth underground layer.

Chen Yu’s breathing quickened; he had previously scanned the area with his system and had only acquired a three-dimensional map of up to the third layer, having not detected the fourth layer.

It seemed this place must be protected by some special magnetic field.

Chen Yu subconsciously activated the system’s scanning function, covering the entire fourth layer.

[System alert, ionic energy magnetic field detected, unable to perform comprehensive scan]

Chen Yu narrowed his eyes; it seemed this place was much more formidable than he had imagined.

Before long, Fox brought Chen Yu to a great hall.

Compared to the ramshackle scenery outside, this place was far more luxurious.

Moreover, there was a large group of people whom Chen Yu had never seen before.

They must now be from different organizations; besides the Knights of the Round Table, there were at least four other organizations.

These people all wore the unique insignia of their respective organizations and communicated with each other in very niche languages.

Chen Yu adjusted his breathing slightly and found an empty seat to sit down.

“This must be your Knights of the Round Table’s new member, isn’t he too young? What merits and abilities does he have to join you all?”

An old man of over ninety glared intensely at Chen Yu, his eyes full of resentment.

Chen Yu was slightly confused; he was sure he had never seen this old man before, so why the animosity towards him?

Fox let out a hearty laugh and sat down beside Chen Yu.

“This young fellow here is a rare genius. He has made significant achievements in the field of biological science,”

The faces of everyone present changed at once, and a few even stood up immediately.

Although these people were not from the Knights of the Round Table, they shared a common goal: the pursuit of immortality.

The ordinary words “biological science” suddenly became synonymous with immortality when spoken by Fox.

Moreover, Chen Yu’s recognition by the Knights of the Round Table at such a young age indicated a potential link to immortality.

Two of the elderly men, on the verge of death, promptly had their assistants hand their business cards to Chen Yu.

Chen Yu did not say much and simply poured himself a glass of wine.

Fox placed a distinctive wooden box on the table.

“There are only two days left until the auction, if we want to get that item, we must make thorough preparations, and we can only cooperate.”

Those present all nodded in agreement, and several people also took out identical wooden boxes.
