Chapter 255: Chapter 255: Take Them All Away

Chen Yu exhaled slowly, and then subconsciously took a few steps forward, wanting to take away the Luminous Pearl.

Kaylo and the two old men beside him hurried forward to stop him.

“Young man, since you recognize the value of our goods, we’ll get straight to the point! You can take anything you like here, but we have the final say on the pricing. Whatever you take, you must pay the corresponding price!”

Chen Yu’s face immediately darkened. He didn’t expect that these three old men would be so shameless.

Everything here was indeed authentic, and he could take whatever he wanted, but if the three old men were to ask for astronomical prices, he simply couldn’t afford it.

Besides, the assets he currently possessed amounted to just a few billion. If he were to waste it all here, his factory would definitely face a funding crisis.

Chen Yu didn’t respond. He simply focused on his breathing. Taking advantage of the old men’s lack of attention, a flash of silver suddenly streaked from his hand.

By the time the three old men realized what was happening, they had already collapsed onto the ground, completely knocked out.

“Ling Ling, I’m not sure about these items. Scan them for me!”

Ling Ling’s ethereal form appeared on Chen Yu’s shoulder and immediately, a large swath of blue and white light covered the entire room. Not long after, a wealth of information filled Chen Yu’s mind.

Apart from a few fake vases, the rest of the items turned out to be authentic.

Chen Yu became instantly excited. He picked up a large bag from the side and gathered all the genuine treasures in the room.

[System Notification: Hidden compartment discovered]

Chen Yu paused for a moment. The place was already underground, and carving out such a vast space was the limit; he hadn’t expected there to be a hidden compartment.

Without hesitation, he followed the system’s guidance to the hidden compartment.

The items stored here far surpassed those in the outside space. Despite the dust, the paintings and treasures here could be categorized as national treasures.

Chen Yu’s breath became rapid. He never imagined he would see so many treasures in his lifetime.

Without wasting any time, he grabbed a box from the side, packed all these items into it, and then followed the system’s directions, crawling through a nearby pipe into an underground tunnel that led back to William’s family.

Victor was shocked when he saw the items Chen Yu brought back.

These were almost all of the Illuminati’s possessions!

“Mr. Chen, how did you do it? These items have been hidden by the Illuminati for over two hundred years, and even we seldom see them. How did you manage to bring them here?”

Chen Yu didn’t explain much. He simply asked Victor to arrange a private ship for him in the shortest possible time.

Victor didn’t dare to delay and immediately had his subordinates make the arrangements, also helping Chen Yu to properly store these items.

The next morning, Luo Kai arrived at Victor’s castle with several members of the Illuminati in tow.

“When the Illuminati first met with William’s family, your people were the elders. I didn’t expect that now, you’d let your guest steal the Illuminati’s treasury. How are we going to settle this account?”

It seemed Victor had already guessed they would come; today, he just sat in the principal seat, tapping on the table, not saying a word.

Meanwhile, a large number of William’s family bodyguards rushed into the hall en masse, occupying all corners.

Should any member of the Illuminati dare to act recklessly, they would take action.
