463: Chapter 463: Perilous Illusion Technique 463: Chapter 463: Perilous Illusion Technique “The various affairs of a typical company are all handled by Chen Ruoya, only for major events does their Chairman make an appearance,” An Lan continued to speak, and Su Qingyu was amazed, she had never seen such an elusive Chairman before.
“It seems that this banquet is a good opportunity to get to know her,” Su Qingyu murmured.
A woman who can uphold such a large group is definitely not ordinary.
Although the two companies are currently in a partnership, this doesn’t an that Su Qingyu can be completely at ease, especially since the Chen Group took the initiative to seek cooperation, which itself raised Su Qingyu’s suspicions.
“Qingyu, I will accompany you to this banquet,” An Lan said indifferently.
“Alright,” Su Qingyu nodded.
“Knock, knock, knock.” At this ti, the office door sounded again.
“Who is it?”
“Qingyu, Mr.
An, I’ve co uninvited.” A woman with an enchanting figure walked in from the doorway, wearing a long red dress, sunglasses, and red lipstick, exuding an aura of a queenly figure.
“Shiqi, how did you get here,” Su Qingyu said surprisedly; the visitor was Luo Shiqi.
She did not expect that right after Chen Ruoya just left, she actually ca again.
“Of course I ca here because I have sothing to discuss with you.” Luo Shiqi removed her sunglasses and slowly sat down on the sofa, glancing sideways at “Mr.
An, there are so things I need to discuss with President Su alone, could you please excuse us?”
“Of course, take your ti,” An Lan nodded and left the office with a few docunts, closing the door behind her.
“Qingyu, did Chen Ruoya co to see you just now?” Luo Shiqi got straight to the point.
“Yes, she ca to deliver an invitation.
How did you know about it?” Su Qingyu’s hands trembled slightly, she was sowhat puzzled.
“She sent one, too,” Luo Shiqi drew an invitation from her pocket, the four big characters ‘Chen Group’ were prominently printed on it.
“If this were rely a business gathering that would be one thing, but recently, I’ve discovered that the Chen Group’s expansion has been faster than anyone anticipated,” Luo Shiqi’s tone suddenly beca serious, even making Su Qingyu feel a bit nervous.
Ever since Su Qingyu got to know Luo Shiqi, she had never seen her with such an expression before.
“What do you an by that?” Su Qingyu’s tone beca chilly.
“In these past few days, my people from the Underworld have reported to that the Chen Group is covertly making a series of moves.
They are expanding and have even involved the Underworld in Yanjing.”
“The Underworld, isn’t that your territory?
How could such a thing happen?” Su Qingyu was a “good” legitimate businesswoman.
Compared to Luo Shiqi, the Underworld queen, she was just a “model student”, and Luo Shiqi was more like a “rebellious girl”.
Su Qingyu didn’t understand much about the Underworld matters, but she had heard of them after becoming familiar with Luo Shiqi.
“This is what I’m worried about.
Any underworld must inevitably be related to business, so I’m concerned that their target lies in the business realm, and their expansion in the Underworld is to pave the way for their business developnt.”
“But the Chen Group has been actively cooperating with businesses in Yanjing recently, with no abnormalities.”
“Keep distant enemies close and attack nearby ones.
If they want to develop in the Underworld first, they will surely stabilize their business activities first,” Luo Shiqi analyzed.

Atlantis, Tomb.
“Aphrodite, do you really know the way, or why are we still going in circles?” After over an hour of walking, there had been no progress, and now it was Nightmare’s turn to worry.
He increasingly felt that Aphrodite was deceiving them.
“Don’t worry, the treasure vault is just ahead.
As a token of sincerity, once we get there, all the treasures will be yours—I won’t want a penny.
How about that?” Aphrodite said with a light laugh.
“Pfft, I never planned to share with you anyway,” Demoness muttered from below.
“Nightmare, sothing doesn’t feel right.
It seems like we’ve been going in circles, and I sense soone nearby,” Soul Destroyer said, looking around apprehensively and sensing danger.
Suddenly, Aphrodite ca to a sharp halt.
“Aphrodite, what are you doing?” Nightmare tensed, gripping his twin halberds, as he felt a strong murderous intent and a powerful energy.
“Ha ha, Nightmare, it seems you’re really not a good leader,” Aphrodite said with a light laugh.
“Just a few words from , and I’ve had you completely fooled.
You’re so obedient.” After saying this, Aphrodite burst into loud, brazen laughter, tinged with a tone of mockery.
“How dare you deceive .
I’ll kill you!” Nightmare’s eyes blazed with rage, and as anger flared in his heart, he lunged forward, thrusting his halberds towards Aphrodite.
“Bang.” A shocking scene unfolded before them—Nightmare’s halberds pierced straight through Aphrodite’s body without any resistance, hitting only the wall behind her, creating a thunderous noise.
“Nightmare, did you forget that my specialty is Illusion Technique?” As everyone regained their composure, Aphrodite stood to the side, looking at them with scorn.
Nightmare had only struck a phantom clone of her.
“Damn you, I will kill you!” Enraged, Nightmare picked up his halberds to attack again, and Soul Destroyer also reacted quickly, thrusting his Long White Sword directly at her.
“What a pair of fools.” Aphrodite waved her sleeve, and imdiately several Phantom Clones appeared around her.
Unlike Chuanzi’s Shadow Clone Ninjutsu, of these clones only one was the True Body—the rest could be seen but not touched.
“Which one is the True Body?” Demoness cursed under her breath, tightly holding her Soft Sword, having long perceived that Aphrodite was a woman with deep sches, unlikely to willingly serve the interests of the Netherworld Palace residents.
“Nightmare, you said you wanted to kill , didn’t you?
Well, co and get ,” all the “Aphrodite” figures tauntingly called out at once.
“Damn it.” Grinding his teeth in fury, Nightmare’s knuckles cracked as he swung his arms forward, creating a powerful Qi Blade that hurtled towards the phantoms in front of him.
“That one, she’s the True Body!” Suddenly, Nightmare pointed and shouted at one of the Aphrodites in the middle.
He had clearly seen all of his Qi Blades hit the phantom clones to varying degrees, but as they were illusions, they remained unhard.
Only the Aphrodite in the middle had completely avoided Nightmare’s attack, making her the True Body.
“It seems I’ve underestimated you.
But do you really think I would dare to rebel so brazenly by myself?”
“What do you an?” Nightmare’s pupils shrank as he felt a strong murderous intent nearby.
“Aphrodite is absolutely correct,” suddenly, a figure flashed past, standing directly in front of everyone.
When they clearly saw the newcor’s face, they all showed a look of astonishnt.
“Zeus, I didn’t expect you to co as well.”
