The Lin family and the Zhu family both belonged to the lower echelons of the Juewu Realm, but they have a fairly good relationship. Now that the Zhu family has suffered this calamity, Lin Zheng feels both helpless and shocked. What did the Zhu family commit to offend someone? To suffer such a cruel retaliation! Three stewards and one family head, all losing their Juewu abilities, becoming cripples. For Juewu practitioners, to go from a position of power to being ordinary is akin to a fate worse than death. What concerns Lin Zheng the most was who could have done this? There aren't many in this region who could bring Zhu Tianba down to such a state. Although the Silver Realm is not on par with the major families, it still holds considerable strength and status in this area. Who could it be? "It's Chen You," Zhang Steward said, his voice low, suppressing the pain radiating from his hand. "Chen You?" Lin Zheng was taken aback. After witnessing that scene, he had considered countless names, but he never expected it to be this one. "Chen You, you mean the abandoned Chen Shao of the Chen family?" Lin Zheng furrowed his brow tightly. Zhang Steward nodded slightly. Lin Zheng's face looked grim. "Has that guy already reclaimed the position of the Chen family's young master? How many people from the Chen family came?" In his view, only if Chen You had reclaimed the position of the young master could he lead the Chen family to slaughter the Zhu family. Upon hearing this, Zhang Steward tightened his grip on his right hand, his voice was heavy. "The Chen family hasn't sent anyone. The only one who came was Chen You." "Only him alone?" Lin Zheng was stunned. "Chen You alone? He alone crippled all three of you and the head of the Zhu family?" His voice, deep and tinged with astonishment, couldn't help but reveal a hint of disbelief. Zhang Steward closed his eyes, his face filled with bitterness. "He's a Juewu practitioner at the Silver Realm." Upon hearing this, Lin Zheng trembled all over and stood up. "This can't be!" Zhang Steward slowly opened his eyes and looked at his palm, which was being bandaged. "I also find it hard to believe, but this is the reality. Moreover..." He turned his head to look at Zhu Tianba lying by the tree. "It seems that even the family head wasn't a match for Chen You. His strength surpasses what I imagined." "It's impossible... from what I know, Chen You is only eighteen years old!" Lin Zheng's eyes showed even more astonishment. "To surpass Zhu Tianba at the age of eighteen, this talent... it can't be." Zhang Steward smiled bitterly. "In families like the Chen family, it's not unheard of for a talented individual to reach the Silver Realm at the age of eighteen. I can only say that Chen You has been concealing his strength for these years, to the point where we all had underestimated him." At this, Lin Zheng's expression changed. After hearing this, it was certain Chen You has been hiding his strength all along. He's not a Juewu practitioner without abilities, but an absolute genius! In other words, if the Chen family knew that Chen You had been concealing his strength, they would surely restore his status as Chen Shao. Even if for some reason they couldn't reinstate his status, with Chen You's talent, he would undoubtedly become a powerful figure in the future. Recruitment! The word echoed in Lin Zheng's mind. It would be best to approach Chen You while he still needs help to develop his potential. This would be advantageous for his own family in the future. The thought of recruiting Chen You lingered in Lin Zheng's mind for a long time. Meanwhile, after obtaining the Juewu weapons, Chen You didn't go home to cultivate immediately. Instead, he drove off in search of a store. A jewellery store. There was one ahead with a grand name: Jinyao Jewelers. Upon entering, Chen You approached the counter, and the female attendant inside stood up. "Sir, do you need to purchase any jewellery?" The female attendant's face lit up with a slight smile, her respectful tone making people feel comfortable. Chen You glanced at the dazzling array of jewellery in the store, then his gaze returned to the female attendant. "You sell jewellery here, but do you also buy them?" The female attendant was slightly taken aback, her beautiful eyes revealing a hint of confusion. "You want to sell jewellery?" She looked Chen You up and down, seeming doubtful that this young man who looked no more than eighteen would have any jewellery on him. "Of course." Chen You reached into his pocket, then pulled out his hand, opening his palm. Radiant beams of light emanated from the gaps between Chen You's fingers... This light caught the attention of the surrounding customers and attendants. When Chen You fully opened his hand, the dazzling and colourful halo seemed to outshine the light in the surrounding area. The diamonds and jade on the counter no longer seemed as brilliant. In the palm of Chen You's hand lay a thumb-sized celestial stone, shaped like a diamond that had been cut, clear and translucent. Faint, colourful hues could be seen inside, with a soft, iridescent halo surrounding the stone. Beautiful! Exquisitely beautiful! The customers, including the attendants, held their breath. In a person's black eyes, the iridescent halo was even reflected. Noticing the changes in the surroundings, Chen You felt somewhat inexplicable. Isn't this just a celestial stone? Was there a need to show such expressions? After all, in Chen You's Qiankun Ring lay a celestial stone as high as a mountain. Not a small mountain, but Mount Tai! The Ring of the Universe had the capacity to contain a world, and the celestial stones it held formed an entire vein. It was as high and large as Mount Tai! Chen You was thinking that the gemstones on the counter were all quite small, which was why he had chosen the smallest celestial stone. Yet, these people's reactions... if he were to take out those basketball-sized ones, wouldn't they be frightened to death? The female attendant's eyes trembled slightly, and her hand couldn't help but reach out, wanting to touch the celestial stone. Chen You closed his hand. Upon closing his hand, everyone in the room snapped back to reality. The female attendant blinked, looking up at Chen You. "You're in charge here, right? If you’re not, then you can't touch this thing," Chen You said impatiently. Hearing this, the female attendant's mouth twitched, looking a bit awkward. "I'll go get the manager." She lowered her head and walked inside. Chen You watched the retreating figure of the female attendant, relaxing his brows. Vaguely, he heard the voice the female attendant let out: "Manager, there is a big deal." Big deal? This small celestial stone is considered a big deal? If Chen You were to take out the vein of celestial stones... The manager came out, a young man dressed in a black suit. He walked out and his gaze fell on Chen You. Their eyes met, and the young man was momentarily surprised. "Oh, a distinguished guest," he said with a smile. "Isn't this Chen Shao from the Chen family? What brings you to my Lei Jewelers?" He knows me? Chen You looked at the young man, observing him for a while. He searched through his memories and confirmed that he didn't recognize this young man. "Who are you?" The young man was taken aback. Lei Family's eldest son, Lei Muchun. As a young and already well-known Juewu family heir in the jewellery world, there were hardly any who didn't know him. However, this guy in front of him didn't recognize him? Thinking of Chen You's past stories, his brows slightly relaxed, revealing a smile that showed no trace of annoyance. "Well, it's our first time meeting, Chen Shao. I'm Lei Muchun, the son of Lei Shen, head of the Lei family." Upon hearing this, Chen You searched his memory. The Lei family was a Juewu family similar to the Murong family, but not as powerful as the Chen family, who was considered as one of the four major Juewu families, but still easily outclassed the Lin and Zhu families. This person in front of him was Lei Family's eldest son? Lei Muchun continued to smile. "We'll talk later, Young Master Chen. I have something to attend to right now. Oh, Xiao Yao, which person did you say was selling jewellery?" Xiao Yao was slightly stunned, saying, "Manager, it's him." "Him?" Lei Muchun was surprised, and then he looked at Chen You in the direction indicated by Xiao Yao. "Chen Shao, you want to sell jewellery?" Chen You nodded slightly, not bothering with unnecessary words. He opened his right hand, and the celestial stone rolled out onto the counter. Seeing the exquisite, colourful celestial stone, Lei Muchun's smile froze. "This is..." Lei Muchun hurried over, not touching the celestial stone, but just staring at it from top to bottom. "This is an exotic stone!" An exotic stone, a collective term for gemstones that have never been seen before! In other words, Lei Muchun had never seen this kind of gemstone before. "An exotic stone, no wonder. I thought I'd never seen such a delicate and beautiful gemstone before, and now I know it's an exotic stone." There was a commotion around them. Lei Muchun carefully used tweezers to place the celestial stone on a device for testing gemstones, then looked at the gemstone through a lens, observing it carefully. Chen You furrowed his brow slightly. If this celestial stone were in the immortal realm, Chen You could absorb a basketball-sized celestial stone in one minute, and the absorbed celestial stone would turn directly into powder. But the person in front of him was being so careful. He felt a bit impatient and said, "Have you seen enough? If you have, name me a price." Name a price? Lei Muchun stood up. "Chen Shao, do you want to sell this exotic stone? I bid this for ten million!" Before Lei Muchun could speak, a customer who had been eyeing the stone for a while stepped forward, smiling brightly. "Sell me the exotic stone. My wife happens to need a beautiful gemstone for a diamond ring." "No, Chen Shao, I'll bid this for thirty million! My wife also needs a diamond ring." Another customer from the other side chimed in. "I bid forty million!" "I bid fifty million!" ... Hearing the shouts of prices from all around, Chen You's eyebrows twitched. What are these people doing? Was this an auction? ..
