After divorcing my celebrity wife, I became the world's richest person

Chapter 482: Shangri-La



The crowd on site immediately became excited and stood up to watch.

What surprised them was that Liu Daotong fell to the ground and started convulsing the moment he came into contact with Chen Yu, as if he had been electrocuted.

The several Sect Leaders looked on in disbelief.

Liu Daotong was the most skilled in martial arts among them, and his physical fitness had even reached the human limit.

They had not expected him to be defeated so easily!

"No, this kid must have cheated!"

Someone shouted, and all the Sect Leaders sprang up, leaping into the center of the plaza.

Without regard to rank, they ran directly to Chen Yu and started searching him.

But after a long search, they found nothing.

Chen Yu sighed lightly and took two steps back.

"Since you all have come up, why not come at me together, to save trouble!"

The crowd's eyes widened in shock; they hadn't expected Chen Yu to dare such a provocation.

A few were so enraged that they charged at him all together.

The Sect Leaders of the Xuanqing Sect's branches were all being cultivated as potential future Grandmasters.

Every one of them had reached the peak of human physical fitness without exception, and to a certain extent, they could even perform some supernatural feats.

The so-called experts of the Knights of the Round Table were no match for them at all.

This time, Chen Yu didn't use his system's electric current but assumed a stance, ready to fight them fair and square.

After several system upgrades, his body had long surpassed human limits. Now was the perfect time to test just how powerful he had become against these Sect Leaders.

When the two sides collided, the sound of metal clanging, as if their bodies were made of steel, rang out.

Under the gaze of the crowd, Chen Yu held his own, and at times, he even gained the upper hand.

As time passed, all the Sect Leaders grew increasingly alarmed; they could never have imagined that someone in their twenties or thirties could be so powerful.

As two Heavenly Masters became exhausted and were flung away by Chen Yu, the rest retreated in unison and stopped there.

By now, they were thoroughly convinced.

Physical fitness is the foundation of a Sect Leader; without it, one would not be qualified to lead.

The rest of the Daoist scriptures could be learned slowly over time.

The various Sect Leaders exchanged glances and then knelt down respectfully.

"We pay homage to the Sect Leader!"

Chen Yu was somewhat surprised; he had thought that after the commotion, these people would come up with various ways to embarrass him. He did not expect that after just one fight, they would acknowledge him.

"Please rise!" Chen Yu quickly went forward to help them up: "I am still young and not very familiar with the rules within the Xuanqing Sect. I will need the help of my seniors in the future."

The crowd was taken aback, as they had not expected Chen Yu to be so modest.

The Xuanqing Sect was the top-ranking mysterious organization in the world, and it wouldn't be a big deal for its Sect Leader to be a bit arrogant.

But Chen Yu seemed to have no such inclination.

When the assembly concluded, many of the Xuanqing Sect's elders gathered together, and Chen Yu naturally took the principal seat.

"Grandmaster, we received an invitation the day before yesterday. It's a banquet hosted by the Knights of the Round Table, and many organizations will attend. The Xuanqing Sect is no exception. How would you like to arrange things?"

Chen Yu was somewhat surprised, as such a banquet was the most high-end gathering in the world, and many people would never have the chance to appear at the venue in their entire lives.

"Would any of you like to accompany me?"

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone present stared at Chen Yu with a strange look.

Liu Daotong respectfully stood up, "Sect Leader, matters of this mundane nature are usually handled personally by the grandmasters, never bringing anyone with them. This is the rule of the Xuanqing Sect."

It was then that Chen Yu remembered, back in the Eastern Ming Gorge, it seemed that he had only seen Heavenly Master Long Tian alone. Your journey continues with My Virtual Library Empire

"In that case, I'll go alone."

Liu Daotong extended his hand again, "Please select a few people to accompany you, Sect Leader. We will not enter the banquet with you, but we must deploy outside to ensure your safety."

Chen Yu waved his hand, "No need, I can ensure my own safety! Moreover, if so many of us go together, what if we're all taken out in one swoop?"

The others didn't know what to say, just exchanged glances and fell silent.

Since Chen Yu had made up his mind, they could only comply.

There is a mysterious sea area in the eastern hemisphere, where the magnetic fields and terrain are extremely peculiar, causing ships and planes passing through mysteriously to disappear.

In the center of this area, there was an archipelago.

All the small islands were connected, and the architecture on them was magnificently imposing, looking like a small kingdom from afar.

This was the secret base of the Knights of the Round Table.

However, they did not conduct any experiments here, instead, this place served as an upscale venue for hosting guests and gatherings.

The banquet this time was held here.

After leaving Tianhu Mountain, Chen Yu was taken to the seaside and boarded a very special ship.

More precisely, a submarine.

The people responsible for greeting Chen Yu stood stunned upon seeing him.

After several confirmations, they welcomed Chen Yu into the cabin.

"Mr. Chen, aren't you one of the Knights of the Round Table? Since when did you become the Sect Leader of the Xuanqing Sect?"

A middle-aged man, rather sycophantic, sat next to Chen Yu.

This guy was also considered a core member of the Knights of the Round Table, but when compared to Chen Yu, he was nothing.

"That doesn't seem to concern you!" Chen Yu swirled his wine glass, his face showing disdain.

The man chuckled twice.

"I mean no offense, but someone like you, joining the Xuanqing Sect while being a member of the Knights of the Round Table and even becoming the Sect Leader, would be considered a traitor by the Knights! Come back to attend the banquet as the Sect Leader of the Xuanqing Sect—isn't that courting death?"

Chen Yu's lips curled into a strange arc, "Are you threatening me?"

The man waved his hands frantically, "You can't say it like that. If word gets out, the people of the Xuanqing Sect won't let me go."

Not daring to say another word, the man hastily returned to his position in the cockpit.

The submarine was very fast, and it reached the piers outside the islands in less than a day.

When Chen Yu set foot on this land, his eyes were filled with astonishment; he had never dreamt that there could be such a place in the world.

Buildings of different styles appeared on the small island at the same time, with various subtropical plants and expanses of lavender everywhere.

From a distance, this place seemed like a utopian island.
