After divorcing my celebrity wife, I became the world's richest person-Chapter 543: The Sand Hole
Chen Yu abruptly brought the car to a screeching halt and simultaneously unleashed the system.
In front of them were dozens of people, but the majority were ordinary and not worth worrying about.
However, there was one young man in his twenties whose body continuously emitted a strong magnetic field, allowing him to easily manipulate steel.
After getting a clear understanding of the opponent’s situation, Chen Yu immediately jumped out of the car and walked over without any fear.
"What do you want to do?"
A man in his fifties stepped out of the car opposite, holding a very ancient-looking curved knife in his hand.
"Not much, just want to borrow some money from you! If you’re sensible, leave your car and all the valuables on you; otherwise, don’t blame me for being impolite."
Chen Yu ignored the guy completely and walked straight up to the young man.
"You’re Tadole, right?"
The young man suddenly looked up and involuntarily stepped back a few paces.
He was a born supernatural, with an innate ability to sense danger, and he could feel how terrifying Chen Yu was.
"How do you know?"
Chen Yu laughed lightly. "I not only know your name but also know that you’re actually the leader of this group! That old guy there, shouting and yelling, is nothing."
A smile unaccountably spread across Tadole’s face.
The middle-aged man beside him immediately took offense and drew his curved knife, charging forward.
But as he approached, a golden spike suddenly pierced through his shoulder, nailing him harshly to the ground.
Jin Lingsu had also gotten out of the car at this point, waving a golden spike with a vigilant expression on her face.
The people around her were infuriated and drew their weapons.
Just as they were about to make a move, Chen Yu suddenly snapped his fingers, and a blue-white light spread out instantly, sending a powerful current that electrocuted the thugs to the ground.

Tadole’s breathing became rapid as his eyes filled with alertness.
"Who the heck are you?"
"Someone like you!" Chen Yu stretched lazily. "Someone like you shouldn’t be mingling with these thugs. Come with me, I’ll give you a better future."
Tadole glanced at the people lying on the ground, his eyes filling with disgust.
He had been an orphan since childhood, and although these people had raised him, they only cared about his ability to manipulate metal.
If he were to lose that power one day, then these thugs would not hesitate to take him out.
"Why should I believe you?"
Tadole was very cautious; after all, he had grown up in such an environment and had always been wary.
Chen Yu took a few steps back. "Simply because I’m stronger than you!"
The competitive spirit in Tadole’s heart was immediately aroused. He raised both hands, and all the metallic objects around him began to float in midair, under his control, and then they smashed down toward Chen Yu.
Jin Lingsu had never seen such a scene before and was instantly panic-stricken. She rushed forward to try to pull Chen Yu out of there.
But Chen Yu remained nonchalant, casually lifting his palm and gently clenching it.
Massive thunder and lightning suddenly released, shattering the metal into pieces.
Tadole’s eyes were full of shock, having never seen someone as powerful as Chen Yu before.
"Okay, I’ll go with you!"
Chen Yu didn’t say anything more and directly led Tadole to the car.
Jin Lingsu still held the golden spike in her hand, maintaining a defensive posture.
Supernatural beings who could manipulate metal like this were truly terrifying, for they could potentially take control of their vehicle and lead them astray at any moment.
Fortunately, no mishaps had occurred along the way, and Chen Yu, with his incredible physical endurance, had driven nonstop for a day and a night, finally arriving at the ruins of an ancient city.
According to the location marked on the invitation, the Sandy Hollow was right here.
As soon as they arrived, Chen Yu released the system, completely covering the ancient city.
Sure enough, there was a vast underground space beneath the ground.
Just as Chen Yu was about to get out of the car, two brawny men charged out from the ruins nearby.
"Where did you come from? Do you have an invitation?"
The physical strength of these two individuals was extremely formidable, their muscles appearing as hard as rock.
Furthermore, these two guys emitted peculiar magnetic fields from time to time, indicating that they were probably natural-born supernatural beings.
Having such individuals guard the gate was enough to show how powerful the owner of Sandy Hollow was.
Without saying much, Chen Yu handed over his and Jin Lingsu’s invitations.
After examining them for a while, the two men returned the invitations.
"And this person, why doesn’t he have an invitation?"
Jin Lingsu quickly got out of the car, took out two gold bars from her person, and stuffed one into each of the burly men’s hands.
"This one is our younger brother, just here to have some fun. Unfortunately, we only have two invitations. Please, make an exception! Don’t worry, we have plenty of money."
After a brief exchange and without any further conversation, they simply registered them and then guided them to drive the vehicle into a massive earthen wall.
This wall, to the eye, seemed like the remnant of an ancient city wall.
But only upon getting closer did one realize that it was in fact a mechanized gate.
Behind the door lay a huge underground garage.
After parking the car, the three followed the signs next to them and made their way down.
Upon reaching the spot, Chen Yu frowned.
There stood a giant at the entrance, an extremely tall figure with muscles solid all over.
Next to this fellow, there was a large sign that said to pass, one either had to defeat him or pay a toll of a hundred taels of Gold.
This place was indeed a true gold-dissolving den.
Having already spent two gold bars for entry, now they were faced with a toll of three hundred taels of Gold.
Chen Yu didn’t say more, unfastening a pouch from around his waist and tossing it over.
This was a collection of gold beans he’d casually taken from the Divine Eagle Sect, amounting to exactly five hundred taels.
"Big guy, according to the rules here, is there a hidden surprise if one pays extra Gold?"
The brawny man was taken aback for a moment.
Rarely did anyone pay extra when entering, so this hidden surprise had never been triggered.
It seemed that Chen Yu was visiting for the first time and could not have known about this hidden surprise.
Without further inquiry, the brawny man pulled out three tags from his person and passed them over.
"With these, you can get a twenty percent discount on certain expenses inside! However, there are some fixed costs that cannot be discounted, so don’t be too pushy."
Chen Yu took the tags, thanked the man, and then led Jin Lingsu and Tadole in with a swagger.
