Urban Supreme Evil Young Master

The next day, in the security department of Victory Group.

Lu Yu was quietly sitting in his office alone, holding the Rope-Curled Sword he had snatched from Gu Yanzhou’s hands last night. At this moment, he was carefully observing it, looking quite leisurely.

Looking at the sword in his hand, thin as a cicada’s wing, Lu Yu’s eyes couldn’t help but show a hint of appreciation.

With his vision, it was clear to him that this Rope-Curled Sword was definitely a top-quality ancient sword. The blade was made by combining various metals and was thin as a cicada’s wing, exceptionally sharp. There were two small, ancient characters on the blade: Rope Curve.

This sword, both in design and craftsmanship, was definitely not of modern make; it was unquestionably a genuine ancient sword that could easily fetch a high price at an auction!

Thinking about this, Lu Yu shook his head, with a hint of helplessness on his face.

Even he hadn’t expected that the weapon in Gu Yanzhou’s hand would turn out to be such a priceless antique!

Originally, Lu Yu did not intend to bring this sword back, but while he was contemplating yesterday, he inadvertently took it home.

Due to the sword’s unique design, being both flexible and sharp, Lu Yu had no choice but to bring it to Victory Group today for careful study.

But he never expected that this sword would turn out to be a genuine ancient sword of considerable value!

”Enough, this sword having such craftsmanship and being a genuine ancient sword must have an extraordinary origin. It’s best to find a decent auction house and quickly sell it off; that’s the right path!”

Sizing up the Rope-Curled Sword in his hand, Lu Yu couldn’t help but shake his head secretly, and simultaneously took a box from beside him, putting the Rope-Curled Sword inside.

Lu Yu never intended to keep this sword by his side.

Just by its wing-thin blade and its incredibly sharp edge, it can be judged that it’s a first-class ancient sword, and not only that, it’s an ancient sword that has killed people!

Such an ancient sword, just its craftsmanship value alone is enough to prove its considerable value; the sword is akin to contraband drugs, an extremely hot potato—now that it’s in his hands, with time it is sure to bring unnecessary trouble!

Lu Yu was never afraid of trouble, but with all his current tasks, he truly didn’t want to get involved in new disputes!

After all, Paradise Island is eagerly plotting, and although the Jin Family and Gu Family are quietly at odds and cannot free themselves, they are constantly watching him like hawks.

Adding to that the Dongdao Group and previously the Shadow Martial Alliance, these matters piling up also gave Lu Yu a sense of invisible pressure!

Buzz!

Just as Lu Yu was feeling this invisible pressure, his phone on the table suddenly vibrated, and the screen displayed the number from Yunting!

Yunting?

Seeing the number displayed on his phone, Lu Yu frowned, showing a hint of confusion.

He had only called Yunting the day before yesterday, giving him a week to help investigate the Dongdao Group. Now, not even two days later, Yunting was calling—could he have encountered some trouble?

Full of doubts, Lu Yu picked up his phone, pressed the call button, and spoke, ”What’s going on? I asked you to investigate the Dongdao Group—did you encounter obstacles?”

Yunting calling early only means two things: either the matter is proceeding extremely smoothly or there’s significant resistance. Generally speaking, in such situations, it’s usually the latter.

That’s why Lu Yu asked this question.

”Young Master Lu, this matter with the Dongdao Group runs too deep, and I’m afraid my forces can’t get involved!”

After hearing Lu Yu’s words, Yunting’s voice instantly came through the phone, with a trace of helplessness.

”Can’t get involved? What’s going on?”

After hearing Yunting’s words, Lu Yu felt incredulous.

Who is Yunting?

He’s the head of Celestial Wolf Association, the biggest underground organization in Lin’an City, the notorious local gangster!

And now, asking such a local gangster to investigate information about the Dongdao Group, Yunting can’t even get involved—this situation truly shocked Lu Yu.

”That’s right!”

Upon hearing Lu Yu’s words, Yunting’s voice sounded even more aggrieved: ”Just these past two days, I asked my friends on the street to help investigate this so-called Dongdao Group, but not only did we find no information, the next day my email received evidence of my shady businesses!”

”If those pieces of evidence get sent out, even with my connections everywhere, I’d have to spend ten years or more in prison! Young Master Lu, this is clearly a threat!”

On the phone, Yunting’s voice was filled with grievance and a trace of fear!

Although over the years, eighty percent of Yunting’s businesses had turned legitimate, he still dealt with those shady businesses.

If those businesses were exposed, even with Yunting’s connections, he’d surely spend eight to ten years in prison!

Listening to Yunting’s words, Lu Yu was shocked; he never expected this issue to develop like this!

This so-called Dongdao Group actually has means to threaten Yunting; it seems Leng Huai Xin’s investigation results were indeed accurate—this Dongdao Group really has serious problems!

Quietly gathering all of Yunting’s shady evidence stands as a testament to the strength of Dongdao Group, and Lu Yu had to admit the waters here are indeed deep!

”Alright, I understand this matter now; from here on, don’t get involved in it anymore, understood?”

Lu Yu told Yunting over the phone that Yunting was still highly useful to him, so he couldn’t let him end up in prison because of this matter!

”Understood, Young Master Lu.”

After hearing Lu Yu’s words, Yunting’s voice continued from the phone: ”But I didn’t come out empty-handed this time. Tonight, there’s a large antique appreciation auction in Lin’an City, and many corporate heads will attend. Dongdao Group and your Victory Group are also invited; you should be able to meet the Dongdao Group’s representative at the auction!”

Antique appreciation auction?

Upon hearing this, Lu Yu’s heart lightly skipped, as his eyes glanced at the Rope-Curled Sword beside him.

Immediately, a glint appeared in Lu Yu’s eyes.

”Alright, I understand. Quickly take care of all your matters, and I’ll contact you when I have time.”

At this moment, Lu Yu finished speaking to Yunting on the phone and immediately hung up, while muttering lowly to himself, ”This situation is getting more and more interesting!”
