After divorcing my celebrity wife, I became the world's richest person Chapter 405 The Old Town Master

"Kid, where do you co from? Have you not noticed that this is just a competition, not a place to sell vegetables?"

Jin Lingsu's voice was filled with murderous intent, startling the youth, and a nearby bodyguard imdiately stepped forward to grab her arm.

These guys were no match for Jin Lingsu; her hand had barely stretched out when it was pierced by gold spikes.

"Ah! You woman, do you want to die? Don't you know my young master is the city lord of the East Bright Canyon."

The bodyguard wailed ghostly, while shouting confidently.

But Jin Lingsu was not scared at all.

She had been here for so long and never once abided by the rules of this place. Besides, Chen Yu had a Token of the Knights of the Round Table in his hands. With this token, they could act with impunity here.

"No matter who your city lord is, just don't cause trouble here and beat it, or don't bla for not being polite."

Chen Yu was full of black lines in his mind, he had not anticipated Jin Lingsu to be so domineering.

But after thinking about it, maybe Jin Lingsu wasn't domineering but just cautious.

The East Bright Canyon was a dangerous place to begin with. Who knew what might happen next, one careless move and you could lose your life.

Ever since Jin Lingsu entered this place, she had been highly vigilant.

Chen Yu sighed helplessly and took Jin Lingsu's arm away.

"All she wants is to taste a bit of fish-flavored shredded pork, there's no harm done."

The youth imdiately sighed with relief and enjoyed eating a plate of fish-flavored shredded pork.

After he finished eating, Chen Yu suddenly stepped forward and grabbed his shoulder.

"You just ntioned that you are the city lord of East Bright Canyon, may I know who is the lord of this place?"

The youth stood up excitedly.

"Brother, your fish-flavored shredded pork is really good. I would like to invite you to cook a al for my father, would that be possible?"

It must be said the youth was quite adept at speaking. Although he did not directly answer Chen Yu's question, he extended an olive branch in a way.

"Of course, that's possible," Chen Yu agreed without hesitation.

The youth was imdiately overjoyed, pulling Chen Yu to leave.

Li Zhengdong's eyes were filled with terror. He hurried over and grabbed Chen Yu's arm.

"Young brother, you must be careful!"

Chen Yu couldn't help but frown; the so-called lord must be up to sothing.

"Don't worry, old senior, I will be careful."

Jin Lingsu was also in a hurry to follow, but Chen Yu stopped her.

"You don't need to co along, just wait for at the inn."

Jin Lingsu was montarily startled, unsure of what Chen Yu was planning.

Not far down the street was a pavilion, which appeared exceptionally luxurious compared to other buildings.

When Chen Yu entered here, he imdiately felt a different atmosphere.

"Dad, I found a master who can make fish-flavored shredded pork in the street today, and I've brought him back."

The youth went straight to the inner room and after a short while, ca back out, supporting an old man with unsteady steps.

The old man looked to be in his sixties or seventies, with sowhat cloudy eyes and deeply wrinkled skin.

"You child, how can you casually bring people into the house? East Bright Canyon is quite tense these days; what if so disreputable person gets in, then what?"

The elderly man scolded the youth before walking up to Chen Yu and scrutinizing him from head to toe.

"This is not a place where just anyone can casually enter. Now that you're here, you'll have to prove your talent, or I'll have to evict you."

By the look of the city master, he seed to crave the shredded pork with garlic sauce; however, due to his status, he could only speak such stern words.

Chen Yu didn't bother with all that and went straight into the nearby kitchen.

At the sa ti, he had the system overlay the entire loft.

Aside from being a bit cleaner, there wasn't anything unusual about the place.

It was just in a corner of the storeroom where several boxes of gold were stacked.

Chen Yu quickly prepared a plate of shredded pork with garlic sauce and brought it up, then, as if he were at ho, casually grabbed a chair and sat down.

The old man couldn't help frowning; he hadn't expected Chen Yu to be so presumptuous.

But he didn't fuss over it much, after all, a plate of delicious shredded pork with garlic sauce was before him, and he had to take a few bites first.

As soon as he put a piece of at in his mouth, the old man's pores opened instantly and his cloudy eyes beca clear.

"This is delicious. To eat sothing so tasty in this confined place is indeed a life well-lived."

Chen Yu lay on the table, drawing circles with one hand by his side.

"City master, I haven't been in the Dongming Canyon for very long and I'm not very familiar with this place. Could you give an overview?"

The city master paused, "Those who have recently co here are special individuals who received invitations and should have soone to guide them."

Chen Yu looked up slightly, "You understand what I an, I want to know what exactly you are in charge of as the city master?"

The city master's body stiffened and he sighed helplessly.

"I am just a figurehead as the city master. Dongming Canyon is managed by several of the world's top organizations working together. In the end, I'm just the security guard they employ to watch the door."

Chen Yu nodded, took out the Token of the Knights of the Round Table, and placed it on the table.

"What exactly is the 'item of eternal life' being sold at this auction?"

Upon seeing the Token of the Knights of the Round Table, the city master was no longer calm; he hadn't expected the Chen Yu before him to have such a status. Continue reading on empire

The city master hurriedly stood up and took out a map from the side.

"As you are one of the Knights of the Round Table, I must disclose everything! In fact, there is no such thing as an 'item of eternal life' in this world; it's rely a life-extending elixir concocted by the Xuanqing Sect."

Chen Yu looked at the map on the table, it was a map of the nearby desert highlighted by red circles indicating several special locations, including where he was.

The red circles were conspicuously connected by fine lines with the words "Dongming Canyon" inscribed above them.

It seed that Dongming Canyon was not a fixed place, but a large area.

These locations combined to form Dongming Canyon.

The map also identified that aside from the aforentioned elixir, other rare items were to be auctioned.

And they were said to be items of destiny in legends.

Chen Yu's breathing suddenly quickened; he hadn't anticipated the existence of such a unique auction in the world.

No wonder it had attracted not only the Knights of the Round Table but also elders of various top organizations.

"Young man, do you have any other questions?"

Chen Yu finally ca back to his senses, "No, but may I keep this map?"

The city master generously pushed the map toward him.

"Of course, you may."
