Chapter 1926: Chapter 1048: Exhibition

Long Wei originally wanted to invite Tao Yu to stay directly in his large villa. As the most popular action star in Xiangjiang at the moment, Long Wei’s wealth is also quite considerable, and he owns a luxury villa on Tai Ping Mountain in Xiangjiang.

However, Tao Yu is here to make his presence felt, and simply staying in that rich area doesn’t connect him to the real world.

He also wants to see how many worlds this place has actually stitched together.

“Young Master, many reputable people in Xiangjiang have sent you invitations. Do you have any thoughts?”

Old John brought several invitations, and none of the four major families in Xiangjiang were left out. In terms of wealth, they all far exceed the assets Tao Yu inherited, hence even Old John took this matter seriously.

“Quite a few, huh? Then let’s find a time to meet them all.”

Tao Yu didn’t appear too aloof. In fact, these wealthy individuals’ invitations mostly stem from his title, purely out of ceremonial social exchanges.

In terms of sheer benefits, at least on the surface, Tao Yu can’t offer them anything.

But having attained his current status, most people care about their own face.

“I think the same way. Recently, there’s a famous jewelry exhibition at the hotel we are staying at, featuring many unique pieces globally. It could be a good time to meet.”

Old John, as a butler, handled many trivial matters and had also learned about various big events in Xiangjiang recently.

This jewelry exhibition is an excellent stage.

Upon hearing Old John’s words, Tao Yu couldn’t help but smile. If it weren’t for sensing the fellow’s loyal emotions, Tao Yu might suspect he colluded with the ’Doctor’.

Or perhaps that assassin-hiring fellow arranged something again.

Without surprise, that jewelry exhibition might be the doctor’s team that killed Li Jie’s family, setting a new action target.

If those were all unique jewels, the value inside could be much faster than robbing a bank.

“Alright, let’s take this opportunity for everyone to get acquainted.”

Tao Yu remained non-committal; there’s no need to reveal the wizard and magic abilities directly now.

However, relying purely on his physical prowess and skills, he could slowly build his reputation.

Besides this jewelry exhibition, there are other events coming up.

For instance, the King of Thousand Kings, Huang Shihu, would take advantage of parole to duel with Gambling God Gao Jin on the high seas.

That cruise ship itself is a sightseeing vessel, attracting many prominent figures to witness the event.

Apart from these publicly glamorous events, Xiangjiang’s police and gang forces are equally tumultuous.

Hongxing’s oldest hall’s leader, Ni Kun, was assassinated. Since the Ni Family always handled the Tsim Sha Tsui hall, they held a unique position in Hongxing where the leader didn’t interfere, leaving it to Ni Kun’s son, Ni Yongxiao.

Now, he has used an iron fist to reclaim a few ill-intent subordinates under his command.

On the other side, Chen Haonan has begun to stand out in Tongluowan, a major in Big Brother B’s forces under Tongluowan hall.

As for Dongxing, there’s a competition for a new leader. Original leader Ah Chui, though experienced, only has a few bars and lacks strength. The strongest, Big D, and most reputable, Le Shao, are the frontrunners.

Crow is Big D’s top enforcer.

On the police side, there are legendary figures like Chen Guorong, rising stars like Chen Jiaju, Flying Tiger Team’s Zhou Xingxing, mobile unit’s He Wenzhan, Anti-Black Group’s Fat Sha, Major Case Team A’s superintendent Huang Zhicheng…

“Hmm? Miscellaneous Affairs Office…”

After arriving in Xiangjiang, Tao Yu conducted an in-depth investigation and couldn’t help but raise an eyebrow when viewing the black INTERNAL files. Though strange, it seemed logical.

The Miscellaneous Affairs Office deals with seemingly unsolvable entities, akin to embodying odd rules differently.

Compared to some tricky enigmas, there remains a considerable gap.

Tao Yu raised his hand, releasing the restrained Jackal’s soul, along with a Dementor he captured.

Compared to the Jackal’s spiritual body, a Dementor’s eerie image is far scarier, chilling the entire room just by floating there.

A Dementor is similar to a spiritual body, invisible to ordinary people who can only feel the chill.

Even the Snake Monster, under Tao Yu’s control, was slowly swimming from Great Britain to Xiangjiang.

There’s no need to worry about any accidents along the way due to its tough skin and thick flesh.

“Have you sensed any special magnetic fields or changes within yourself around here?”

As Tao Yu pressed his hand against the Jackal’s spirit to inspect, he also understood the change in his mindset.

“There’s a weird sensation, as if I can attach myself to someone.”

The Jackal replied honestly, even now, viewing Tao Yu with some fear.

He only intended to complete a task, but not only did he fall here, even his soul was pulled out as a stray entity.

He truly feared the seemingly young master before him.

So, even if he felt he gained some possession ability, he dared not show it, let alone entertain thoughts of counterattack.
