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

Chen Yu didn't say much either, he patted the little boy on the shoulder and then led the way down.

The people following behind were also clear-cut, they organized their equipment swiftly and marched down imposingly, but still leaving half their team outside on alert.

The people trailing behind drew closer with each step and would soon reach the ancient city.

Those remaining outside could only use their vehicles to encircle the edge of the ancient city and also set up sandbags on the spot.

If those guys wanted to force their way in, they would have no choice but to engage.

The underground palace turned out to be much more complicated than imagined, and Chen Yu felt somewhat overwhelmed as soon as he descended.

Although his mind now contained all knowledge within human cognition, he was still unfamiliar with some of the mechanisms here.

He could only rely on the knowledge in his mind to deduce backwards and barely managed to dismantle a few traps.

But just these few traps left him dizzy and covered with sweat on his forehead, fearing that if he continued, he might faint.

"I really didn't expect Mr. Chen to be so familiar with this place, with you here, we will soon be able to reach the depths of the underground palace."

Snow spoke without any discomfort of his own, even though he had long noticed the sweat beads on Chen Yu's forehead, he still chose to offer these flattering words, not wanting Chen Yu to stop.

"Kid, we've given you enough respect already!" Jin Lingsu directly drew the golden spike from her waist. "You'd better stand there quietly, don't talk, or else I'll stab you to death."

Snow certainly understood the importance of Chen Yu, and since Jin Lingsu and Luo Sanpao were experts, he didn't dare act rashly, only able to squat by the wall and wait quietly.

A nimble voice suddenly rang in Chen Yu's mind, stirring excitement within him.

The next moment, blue and white light rippled out, instantly covering the entire underground palace, revealing all its traps and secret passages within his mind.

Chen Yu adjusted his breathing slightly and then stood up, leaning against the wall.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

After several evolutions, the system now seemed like a human being with its consciousness.

Within its protective functions, not only did it have defensive capabilities, but also medical ones, and it could even control the consumption of nutrients inside Chen Yu's body when necessary, helping to maintain his stamina.

Seeing Chen Yu suddenly as if transformed into another person, Snow's eyes widened in disbelief.

"Mr. Chen, hadn't your strength completely depleted just now? How did you recover so quickly?"

Jin Lingsu was not pleased, she immediately placed the golden spike against Snow's neck.

"Are you really serious about cooperating with us, or do you want to see our people get into trouble?"

Startled, Snow quickly retreated several steps back.

Jin Lingsu didn't say anything else; after all, they were in a cooperative relationship for now. If they were to start a conflict, both sides might immediately come to blows.

In such a narrow place full of traps, if they were to fight, neither side would benefit.

Chen Yu didn't say much either, just kept walking deeper into the place by himself.

After navigating several bends, they finally reached a large hall.

This place looked extremely luxurious, with a vast amount of jewels piling up the entire room.

Considering the scale of the treasures here, even if all those present worked for three days and nights, they might not be able to move out all the treasures.

Chen Yu had no interest in these things and walked straight to a wall.

He fiddled with the wall with his hand a few times, and the wall made a rumbling sound.

Soon, a door appeared before them.

Snow suddenly rushed in like a madman.

"This is it! We've finally found it."

In the dark room, there was a spot filled with strange light. Snow headed straight for the light, then grabbed a glass bead placed on a high platform.

The item was about the size of a baby's head, with a crystal-clear exterior, and it looked mystical on the inside, emitting a light that had a sacred aura.

[Biological composite material can alter the structure of human cells, potentially extending life to some degree, but ninety-nine percent of people can't withstand the changes brought by this substance.]

Chen Yu instantly understood everything, his face twisting into a curious arc, then he turned and left the place.

Jin Lingsu was full of confusion, "Are we not going in to take that bead with us?"

Chen Yu shook his head, "That item doesn't belong to us; we take as much of these treasures as we can carry."

The boy who sold the map appeared to have grasped the principle early on. He directly had the dozen or so strong men that came with him fill the prepared snake-skin bags with the treasures.

Luo Sanpao was not to be outdone, filling his backpack to the brim with his own hands.

At that moment, a large group of people charged grandly into the underground palace.

They seemed to have a detailed map as well and quickly found this place, but their objective was clear—they only cared about the pillar on the high platform and nothing else.

Chen didn't bother with much, as after everyone's backpacks were full, he led them out of the place.

The guards outside deliberately opened a pathway, letting the outsiders in.

When Chen Yu had entered, he had told them that if too many people came, they shouldn't entangle with the opposition, just letting them through would be enough.

Most of those who arrived were from major organizations with the goal of eternal life; they had no interest in the gold and jewels on the side.

Unfortunately, there was only one bead, which inevitably led to a struggle between them.

Meanwhile, Chen Yu and his team could carry the gold and jewels out with peace of mind.

A member of the Lakato family approached Chen Yu in a hurry.

"Where is Lord Snow?"

Chen Yu pointed in the direction of the underground palace, "He's still inside. But at this time, he's probably fighting with people from other organizations. Go take a look quickly."

All of the Lakato family members didn't dare to delay and rushed towards the palace.

Chen Yu shook his head and didn't bother with the rest, instructing his people to load the gold and jewels onto vehicles before leaving the site with grandiosity.

Not long after they left, the underground palace behind them erupted in a violent explosion.

Chen Yu laughed heartily, his face filled with disdain.

"What a bunch of daydreamers, that bead isn't something just anyone can use. To exchange their lives for such a thing in a broken palace, it's beyond me what they were thinking."
