Awakening The Weakest Talent: Only I Level Up



Chapter 784 Traitor

The illusion created by the Nightmare Dragon forced everyone to beg for mercy.

"I beg you, let us go back. I can't stand this place any more."

"I think something attacked me; my arm is bleeding!"

"Let us go back quickly. I think we all know our mistakes!"

"We shouldn't have doubted you. What you said is right, and we are wrong!"

After listening to all the pleading around him, Lu Yu decided to rescind the Nightmare Dragon's power.

In this illusion, these people could feel as if they were being attacked. One of them, for example, had his arm pierced by a crow and was crying bitterly while hugging his arm.

Although it was an illusion, the pain was real.

The surrounding illusion began to shrink as the crack on Lu Yu's arm closed.

The familiar white walls were erected again, and the city scenery outside the French windows reappeared. Seeing this, everyone leaned on the table and panted heavily.

They were all afraid of Lu Yu from this point forward.

"Now, is anyone still questioning the existence of a dragon soul? It used this method to control many others to do its bidding."

Someone looked at Lu Yu and asked, "But, how did you subdue him?"

"I defeated him. It's that simple."

"What? Dragons are evil and powerful creatures! Can you defeat such a being?"

Lu Yu shrugged. "Why not? I've already defeated more than one."

Hearing this, everyone remembered Lu Yu's battle pet, the Water Spirit Dragon, and accepted this fact calmly.

"Now, can you tell us who's the traitor?"

Lu Yu picked up the paper he had written down. "There are five people in total, all of them holding important positions. However, some of them were forced to join, while others volunteered. You could say that they couldn't wait to betray the Star Science Chamber of Commerce."

Hearing this, everyone looked at each other warily.

"Who is it?"

"I'll only read out the names of the traitors, and then you guys deal with them."

"One of them is Qin Dong, the deputy head of the R&D department, and the other is Chen He, the marketing department manager."

Hearing this, everyone in the meeting room turned their heads in one direction.

The two people sitting at the table's edge were Qin Dong and Chen He, whom Lu Yu had just mentioned.

The two of them hurriedly begged for mercy after knowing they could not hide it anymore.

"I was forced. Really, I was forced to join them! Please, I never wanted to betray the Star Science Chamber of Commerce! Please believe me!"

"Me too! Never once did I want to betray the Star Science Chamber of Commerce. Think about it. Do I look like that kind of person?"

The two of them fought to argue for themselves, but the other executives around them did not buy it.

They all contributed significantly to the company, which is where it is today, because of their hard work.

Naturally, they did not want to see anyone trying to destroy the company.

"Tang Lina, call someone in and execute these two!"

"Those who betrayed the Star Science Chamber of Commerce must be executed. No one can be left alive!"

"Kill them. These two bastards are simply wasting the air they breathe upon."

"I've misjudged you. How dare you betray us! You deserve to die!"

"Get out of the meeting room. I feel disgusted just looking at you!"

Faced with everyone's curses, the two of them cowardly retreated.

At this moment, Tang Lina looked at Lu Yu and asked, "What do you think?"

"I'll deal with them according to your laws—the death penalty. I might have to visit some other families, as some quite several people have joined the Underground Chamber of Commerce."

Tang Lina quickly smiled and replied, "You can give me a list of names. I'll deal with some of them."

"Alright, I'll leave the less difficult targets to you."

Tang Linna scratched her head and asked in confusion, "Please believe in my ability. I can also handle the difficult ones without a problem."

Lu Yu shook his head. "Leave it to me. After all, you're a member of the Qin family, and doing this will easily attract hatred. I'll go and get rid of them. In the future, when I'm no longer in the Star Science Chamber of Commerce, they will only be able to find me if they want to!"

When Tang Lina heard this, she stopped arguing. What Lu Yu said made sense. Although traitors had to be dealt with, the things involved were complicated and intricate, making it easy to provoke the rest of the members.

Lu Yu stood up and looked at everyone. "Did you say that I'm useless as a CEO? You're right, so I won't continue to be your CEO. But know that my ability to handle things is much better than yours."

Everyone felt a little embarrassed after hearing that because this was a major issue that had plagued the Star Science Chamber of Commerce for several years and had been resolved not long after Lu Yu arrived. They were all embarrassed by themselves. They would never be able to solve this in their lifetime if they handled it!

Lu Yu walked out of the meeting room under the admiring gazes of the crowd soon after.

Han Xuefei followed Lu Yu and asked when they were outside, "Which one do you plan to deal with first?"

"The Cheng family. I've seen the list, and among all the families that joined the Underground Chamber of Commerce, the Cheng family is the strongest and is ranked in the top ten of the Star Science Chamber of Commerce."

"The top ten of the Star Science Chamber of Commerce must be harboring strong hidden cultivators in their families. I'm sure these cultivators are at least of the Diamond Rank!"

Lu Yu shrugged. "Are you afraid of them? Both of us are Diamond Ranked, so I don't think there will be a problem even if there are two enemies of the same rank."

Han Xuefei nodded slightly. She was about to break through to Diamond Rank 3, so her strength was naturally at the top among everyone in the Star Science Chamber of Commerce.

However, it was difficult for Han Xuefei to break through this barrier unless she encountered another great opportunity.

The two of them went downstairs and got into the car.

The Cheng family lived in a large residential area in the suburbs and had built a small villa area for their entire family to live in. They were living like kings, to say the least.

Soon, Lu Yu and Han Xuefei arrived at the entrance of the Cheng family villa complex.

A row of walls stretched as far as the eye could see. Inside the walls was a grassland with beautiful scenery and simple, fashionable villas.

At the entrance, the security guard stopped Lu Yu's car just as he was about to enter.

"Do you have an appointment?" The security guard asked coldly.

"No, I don't."

"Then please go back."

"I want to go in and see the head of the Cheng family!"

"No, you're not from the Cheng family, and you don't have an invitation from them. Don't even think about entering."

Lu Yu sighed and said patiently, "Go and tell your superiors that the CEO of the Qin Group is here to visit!"

The security guard looked at Lu Yu and could not help but laugh. "You are the CEO of the Qin Group? Have I gone crazy, or are you the crazy one? Are you kidding me? Are you even worthy of such a position?"

At this moment, Lu Yu's patience had run out.

"I'll leave it to you."

Lu Yu said, and Han Xuefei shook her head.

Crack!

Suddenly, a powerful force surged and broke the security guard's neck; his head had turned 180 degrees!

With a thud, the security guard fell to the ground.

Lu Yu drove into the villa area.
