49: Chapter 49: Spending a Million!
The night was deep.
Inside a luxurious top-floor apartment near Kyoto Martial Arts University.
Su Yu pushed open the door and walked into the living room.
He didn't turn on the lights.
Only the bustling neon lights of Kyoto outside the floor-to-ceiling windows shone through the glass onto the floor, casting a long shadow.
Su Yu tossed his faded, worn-out canvas bag onto the expensive leather sofa.
He leaned back heavily.
He let out a long breath of stale air.
Silence.
Absolute silence.
Only at this moment did the nerves that had been taut all day finally relax a little.
Too many things had happened today.
From Jiangcheng to Kyoto, from meeting Martial Venerable Lin Zhentian to comprehending the Soul-Suppressing Spear Intent at Weiming Lake, and then being frantically fought over by three department heads, finally alarming the Vice Principal, a Martial Emperor, and being directly parachuted in as a "Special-Grade Freshman."
If this had happened to an ordinary eighteen-year-old, he probably would have been so excited that his brain would have crashed, and he wouldn't even know which way was up.
But Su Yu didn't.
His eyes remained deep and calm in the darkness.
"Take stock of resources."
Su Yu muttered to himself.
He sat up and reached into his pocket.
Slap. Slap.
Two cards were gently patted onto the coffee table in front of him.
One was the black card given by Lin Xiaoxiao, which contained a small goal.
The other was an anonymous platinum card stuffed into his hand by Director Chu Kuang, which contained 50 million.
A full 150 million!
Besides that, in his pocket, there was also a spatial ring that Director Liu Ruyan had insisted on giving him.
Su Yu scanned it slightly with his spiritual power.
The space inside the ring was not large, only a few cubic meters.
But inside, there were over a hundred test tubes neatly stacked, emitting rich qi and blood fluctuations.
They were all high-grade qi and blood potions that were extremely rare on the market!
"A large amount of potions……"
Su Yu looked at the ring, the corners of his mouth lifting slightly.
These potions were of extremely high purity and could be directly absorbed to increase qi and blood values, or sold for money for the system.
However.
Now was not the time to deal with the potions.
Su Yu's gaze fell back onto the two bank cards on the coffee table.
A huge sum of 150 million.
If he threw it all into the system, at the ratio of one yuan for one year of cultivation, that would be 150 million years of cultivation!
150 million years!
Even a pig, if it lived for 150 million years, could become a peerless demonic beast capable of swallowing the heavens and earth!
Su Yu's heartbeat uncontrollably accelerated a bit.
The temptation was too great.
He subconsciously called out to the system in his mind, preparing to directly top up the 50 million given by Director Chu Kuang.
"System, top up……"
Before he finished speaking.
Su Yu slammed his mouth shut!
The hand reaching for the platinum card also hung stiffly in mid-air.
Cold sweat instantly seeped from his forehead.
"No!"
"I can't do this!"
Su Yu's brain started working at this moment, and his reason poured over his heart like ice water, extinguishing the fanaticism.
Using a bank card to pay for the system had a fatal risk of exposure!
The system's payment method was to directly erase the numbers in the account.
There were no transfer records.
No payee.
No fund flow.
If it were a few hundred or a few thousand, it might not attract anyone's attention.
But this was 50 million! It was 100 million!
In a place like Kyoto, the movement of large funds was absolutely strictly monitored by the bank's think tanks and formation masters.
Director Chu Kuang had just given him the card.
If the 50 million in the card evaporated into thin air right after.
Even the highest-level financial tracking system of the Great Xia Kingdom wouldn't be able to find where it went.
What would Director Chu Kuang think?
What would the military think?
Once it aroused the suspicion of those Martial Emperors or even Martial Venerables, and they followed the trail, his biggest secret—the system—would definitely be completely exposed!
"I was almost blinded by greed."
Su Yu took a deep breath and pulled his hand back.
A trace of lingering fear flashed in his eyes.
An innocent man is guilty of the crime of holding a jade.
Before having absolute, invincible strength, any tiny flaw could invite fatal disaster.
However.
Sitting on a mountain of gold of 150 million, but not being able to spend it?
This was more painful than being killed!
Su Yu stood up and paced back and forth in the spacious living room.
His brows were tightly locked.
His brain was thinking of a way to break the deadlock.
Suddenly.
His footsteps paused abruptly.
A bright light erupted in his deep eyes!
"That's right!"
Su Yu slapped his thigh hard.
"How could I have forgotten the most primitive method!"
"Cash!"
"I can use cash!"
Digital currency could be tracked, and bank accounts could be monitored.
But what about physical, anonymous cash?!
As long as he withdrew the cash, took it to a blind spot without any surveillance, and let the system directly absorb the physical banknotes!
Who could trace that?!
If the banknotes disappeared into thin air, others would at most think he hid the money or exchanged it for resources.
It was impossible for them to associate it with him topping up the system!
"That's what I'll do!"
Su Yu's eyes instantly became incredibly fiery.
He didn't hesitate at all.
He walked straight into the bathroom, took a very quick cold shower, washing away all his fatigue.
He changed into a clean black tracksuit.
Put on a baseball cap.
Picked up the platinum card on the table and went straight out!
……
Late-night Kyoto was still brightly lit.
Half an hour later.
Su Yu arrived at the edge of the Kyoto wealthy district, at a 24-hour top-tier VIP self-service bank.
There were no human tellers here.
Only rows of large ATMs made of high-grade alloys with extremely high explosion-proof levels.
They were specifically designed to provide large-sum cash services for high-net-worth clients who were inconvenient to show their faces.
Su Yu walked in.
Inserted the anonymous platinum card given by Director Chu Kuang into the machine.
Entered the password.
[Respected Platinum VIP client, your account balance is: 50,000,000.00 Yuan.]
[Please enter the cash amount you wish to withdraw.]
Su Yu took a deep breath.
His fingers danced quickly on the screen.
Entered: 1,000,000.
One million!
Hum—
A low mechanical whirring sound came from inside the machine.
Immediately after.
Click.
The huge cash dispenser below opened slowly.
Bundles of brand-new, hundred-yuan banknotes exuding the fresh scent of ink, like red bricks, were neatly pushed out.
A full hundred bundles!
One million in cash weighed about 23 jin.
For a Martial Master with 1,000 points of qi and blood, this weight was no different from a feather.
Su Yu expressionlessly swept all one million in cash into the large black backpack he had brought.
Zipped it up.
Pulled out the card.
Turned around and disappeared into the vast night.
……
Back to the apartment.
Click.
The door was locked from the inside.
Su Yu walked to the center of the living room and unzipped the backpack.
Whoosh!
A hundred bundles of bright red banknotes were poured directly onto the expensive carpet.
Piling up into a small mountain that emitted the scent of money.
Su Yu sat cross-legged in front of this small mountain.
In his eyes, there was no greed for money, only an extreme desire for power!
"Top up!"
Su Yu gave the command in his mind extremely decisively.
But.
When choosing the target for the top-up, he was stunned.
One million cash meant one million years of cultivation!
Where should this massive energy be thrown?
"Martial arts?"
Su Yu shook his head.
The martial arts he currently mastered were only a basic "Five Elements Fist" and the "Rock-Crushing Palm" (mystic grade low-rank) given by Lin Xiaoxiao.
"Five Elements Fist" was already perfected.
As for the "Rock-Crushing Palm", although it was mystic grade, in a place like Capital Martial Arts University, it was simply not enough.
Throw 1 million years into a mystic grade low-rank palm technique?
It was simply a waste!
"Cultivation technique?"
The "Breath Concealment Technique" had already been deduced to the perfect realm, and it was enough for now.
"Could it be…… directly top up qi and blood?"
Su Yu's gaze flickered slightly.
If 1 million years were thrown in, his qi and blood value would definitely see an unprecedented, terrifying surge!
Increasing it by 100,000 points would be easy!
However.
This thought only stayed in his mind for a second before being ruthlessly extinguished by Su Yu.
"No."
"It's too perverted, and also too unreasonable."
Su Yu calmly analyzed the current situation.
He was currently a Martial Master with 1,000 points of qi and blood.
He was already a shocking monster among the freshmen.
If overnight, his qi and blood value suddenly soared to 100,000 or even hundreds of thousands.
That wouldn't be called a monster.
That would be called a freak!
It was very likely he would be directly captured by a powerhouse at the Martial Emperor level like Vice Principal Nie Changkong and sliced up for research!
Moreover, he currently lacked sufficient information about the top-tier combat power of this world.
What realm was hundreds of thousands of qi and blood exactly?
Martial King? Martial Emperor?
He didn't know.
He didn't even know if 1 million qi and blood points could make him truly invincible in this world.
