Peerless Taoist

A wave of sarcastic remarks came from the surroundings. The surrounding maids also began to whisper to each other, and their gazes towards Lu Yu were filled with doubt.    

Chen Lan explained to Lu Yu in a low voice, "Sister Hong, could it be wrong?"    

"How could it be wrong? It must be fake."    

Yuan Hong scolded arrogantly, "You are not experienced enough, so you should study hard."    

"There are hundreds of such banknotes in the black market."    

"You really came from the countryside. You don't know anything, yet you are being tricked by a swindler."    

"You really think that the money can be put into your pocket? You are so stupid that you can't be cured."    

Yuan Hong started to criticize Chen Lan.    

She had been in Treasure Gathering Pavilion for a long time, so she was qualified to criticize a newcomer like Chen Lan.    

Normally, Chen Lan had been bullied and humiliated many times, but she could only silently endure it and was powerless to resist.    

"How do you know that this is definitely a fake banknote?" Lu Yu asked.    

"Is there a need to ask? Anyone with discerning eyes can tell that this is definitely fake!"    

Yuan Hong sneered, and then she began to check the banknotes in her hands.    

She looked up and down at the banknotes in her hands, her long eyelashes trembled slightly, and her eyes looked up and down. Suddenly, she frowned.    

"Where did you buy this fake ticket? How can it be so realistic? It seems that you have spent a lot of money on it, right?"    

"However, your little tricks won't work on me. The banknotes of Da Yuan Bank have a lot of anti-counterfeiting measures, especially for such a huge amount of money, which is worth hundreds of millions. There are unique anti-counterfeiting formations inside. No one else can fake it."    

Yuan Hong couldn't find any problems with the banknotes, but she was not discouraged.    

Because Yuan Hong had already determined that there was definitely something wrong with the banknote in Lu Yu's hand.    

That was five billion yuan.    

Even the few big families in the capital of the State of Yue wouldn't be able to easily take out five billion yuan.    

The young man in front of her didn't even have a follower behind him. His every move had a rustic air about him. Yuan Hong didn't believe that Lu Yu could control such a huge amount of banknotes.    

"I didn't expect you to be so stupid. You spent so much effort to make such an exquisite banknote, but you chose to spend it in Treasure Gathering Pavilion. I don't know if you are really stupid or not. But that's right. After all, normal people wouldn't imitate the banknotes of Da Yuan Bank."    

Yuan Hong looked at Lu Yu arrogantly, her eyes full of confidence. "I will give you a chance now."    

"As long as you admit your mistake and apologize to me, I will let you go this time."    

"I am not that easy to talk to. This is the only chance for me to be merciful."    

After saying that, Yuan Hong slammed the table with her palm and said, "Hurry up and plead guilty!"    

Chen Lan looked at Yuan Hong timidly. She felt that Lu Yu did not seem like a criminal who would use a fake ticket. However, when she saw Yuan Hong's imposing manner, she felt a sense of fear in her heart.    

"If it is true, what will you do?" Lu Yu said coldly.    

He did not plan to waste time here.    

To Lu Yu, Yuan Hong and the others were just insignificant people that did not affect his mood at all.    

However, although Lu Yu did not put them in his eyes, he would not tolerate them slandering him.    

"If it is true, what do you think?" Lu Yu took another step forward.    

A piercing aura suddenly enveloped Yuan Hong. She suddenly felt a chill on her back and could not help but take a few steps back.    

After a moment, Yuan Hong finally reacted. She could not help but widen her eyes and look at Lu Yu in disbelief.    

From the outside, Lu Yu looked like a scholar who did not seem to be threatening at all. However, this scholar had given Yuan Hong a lot of pressure just now.    

"What? Are you angry because I exposed you? The angrier you are, the happier I am."    

Yuan Hong raised her eyebrows and immediately said with a provocative smile, "If it is true, I will give you a hundred kowtows. If it is fake, you will have to compensate me with all your money."    

Lu Yu shook his head. This kind of insignificant person was indeed quite childish.    

Yuan Hong seemed to have already been sure that the silver bills in Lu Yu's hands were definitely fake. That was why she made such a bet, in order to obtain the last bit of benefit from Lu Yu's hands.    

"How can your one hundred heads be compared to the wealth on my body?"    

Lu Yu shook his head. "How about this, if it's fake, you can leave the Treasure Gathering Pavilion on your own accord."    

The Treasure Gathering Pavilion was a top force in the Heaven Realm. Its treatment was even better than the elders of many Holy Lands.    

Although the maidservants of the Treasure Gathering Pavilion did not look very eye-catching, in reality, the benefits they received were quite good. Many people tried their best to become a worker of the Treasure Gathering Pavilion, but it was very difficult.    

For cultivators with low cultivation levels and low aptitude, having a good job was extremely important.    

Not everyone was born to be a genius. The Heaven Realm was vast, and the number of experts was only a small portion of the living beings.    

"You want me to leave the Treasure Gathering Pavilion?"    

Yuan Hong frowned slightly.    

Back then, in order to join the Treasure Gathering Pavilion, she had used a lot of methods, and she even framed another applicant, causing the other party to fail and take his place.    

To be able to become a maidservant of the Treasure Gathering Pavilion had brought Yuan Hong many benefits, especially the generous treatment of the Treasure Gathering Pavilion. It had successfully allowed Yuan Hong to buy three mansions in the capital of the State of Yue at a young age.    

Such a good job, it was probably priceless.    

However, Yuan Hong thought about it and felt relieved.    

In her opinion, this was a game that was destined to be won, so she didn't need to worry at all.    

"Alright, I agree." Yuan Hong revealed a smile.    

At this moment, heavy footsteps suddenly came from the top of the Treasure Gathering Pavilion.    

A middle-aged man dressed in luxurious clothes walked down from the top of the pavilion, his footsteps steady and his expression dignified.    

"What's going on? What are you all doing here?" The middle-aged man said in a deep voice.    

Seeing the middle-aged man come over, all the maids present scattered and bowed in unison, "Pavilion Master!"    

This person in front of them was the Pavilion Master of the Treasure Gathering Pavilion here!    

Although the Treasure Gathering Pavilion in the capital of the State of Yue was only a second-level branch pavilion, the strength of the Pavilion Master had actually reached the Mystic Immortal Realm!    

It could be seen how deep the foundation of the Treasure Gathering Pavilion was!    

"Pavilion Master, quickly take a look. This person used fake banknotes and wanted to buy all the exhibits on the first floor."    

Yuan Hong was the first to accuse the wrong person, and shouted, "I have exposed him, and he still doesn't admit it. This is really laughable. Pavilion Master, you have to help me."
