From this moment on, the observation point on Sunset Cliff was on highest alert!
They didn’t know who the enemy was or where they would start.
A passive defense could only do so much. They felt aggrieved, helpless, but had no choice but to deal with it.
Throughout the entire process, Su Jingxing’s Essence Soul did not say a word and only listened quietly.
Guan Zhonghua and the others were aggrieved, and Su Jingxing’s Essence Soul was equally angry.
This was really a disaster falling from the sky when he did absolutely nothing.
There was actually a Transcendent-grade who had his eyes on the Yu Nation and wanted to kill him and replace him!
Aren’t these independent cultivators in the Transcendent-grade extraordinarily ambitious?
Previously, Yu Xiangtian, Shi Que, Gong Junlian, and the others had also warned Su Jingxing to be careful and not leave the Yu Nation.
The newly advanced Martial Sage guarded a dynasty.
Without the help of the old Martial Sage, it would indeed attract the covetous eyes of independent martial artists in the Transcendent-grade.
In the tens of thousands of years of history of Earth Star, this had happened several times.
With the death of the old Martial Sage, a new Martial Sage had just taken charge of the dynasty. Before he could consolidate his position and make a name for himself, he was targeted by other Transcendent-grade martial artists and was immediately replaced.
With this current situation, some people had succeeded in history, while others had failed.
The gang with the Zhao fellow had certainly thought of imitating and doing the same for a long time.
Yu Xiangtian, Shi Que, and the others had asked Su Jingxing not to leave the Yu Nation because he could fight through the Kingdom Defending Jade Seal if he stayed in the Yu Nation.
In the Void Soul realm, relying on the Kingdom Defending Jade Seal to fight and calm the mind was not difficult.
However, if the Yu Nation were to fall into chaos and the nation’s fate was shaken, the power of the Kingdom Defending Jade Seal would be greatly affected. It was unknown if it could still be used.
Su Jingxing’s Essence Soul tried to circulate the Six Comets Records to deduce possible hidden dangers.
The first one was indeed from the Boundless Mountain Range!
Those people with the Zhao fellow were really capable of luring the barbarians out of the mountain range and into the Yu Nation.
It had been nearly a hundred years since the barbarians left the mountain range, but they dared to do so this time.
What method did the mastermind use?
Secretly promising benefits, giving a large amount of resources, and colluding with the barbarians?
Or deliberately provoking the barbarians to lure them out?
Such incomprehensible information was the most frustrating.
Su Jingxing’s Essence Soul held back its anger and circulated the Six Comets Records again to obtain the second possible hidden danger.
From within the country!
With internal and external troubles, chaos could still erupt internally.
However, he couldn’t deduce what it was exactly. After all, this wasn’t foreseeing the future.
If possible, Su Jingxing’s Essence Soul was more willing for the mastermind to come to it directly.
Whether it was a sneak attack or an assassination, it was better than such external interference that it had no clue about.
Causing chaos would definitely result in death. The only difference was the number of deaths.
If they went straight to Su Jingxing’s Essence Soul, given Su Jingxing’s current trump cards and strength, even if a person in the Primordial Spirit realm was here, it would be able to put up a fight.
Unfortunately, the other party just had to cause trouble, thinking that Su Jingxing’s biggest trump card was the Kingdom Defending Jade Seal.
What the f*ck!
…
“Everyone, I think it’s best not to deploy forces recklessly. Just make ample preparations.”
During the discussion, Luo Xuangong said, “Right now, we are in the open and the other party is in the dark. No matter what we do, our information will be exposed. The only advantage is that the other party doesn’t know that we already know their operation time.”
“Tomorrow night, no, after 10 p.m. tonight!”
“Well, it could also be the day after tomorrow.” Xiang Yilong thought for a moment and said, “That Zhao fellow is waiting for me to agree. If I do, he’ll probably bring me to my destination. We will have to spend some time traveling, right?”
“Therefore, the other party would probably be making his move before dawn tonight!” Xiao Renwo said in a low voice.
“Alright, we’ll have to keep an eye on the area behind Sunset Cliff at night.” Guan Zhonghua gritted his teeth.
“Gather all the cyber experts on standby,” Su Jingxing’s Essence Soul suddenly said.
Hmm?
Guan Zhonghua, Luo Xuangong, Fu Neng, and the others were stunned.
“You mean…” Ao Chunqiu probed.
“The invasion of Internet information will also cause chaos.
Su Jingxing’s Essence Soul said calmly, “The future troubles caused by the invasion of information are no less serious than the rebellion. In short, gather all the cyber experts to standby. It’s best to be prepared.”
“Alright!”
Guan Zhonghua nodded, picked up the phone, and passed down the order.
Luo Xuangong, Fu Neng, and the others said nothing, their expressions indifferent.
Only Xiao Renwo was deep in thought.
The development of the Earth Star’s network was very slow. It had been almost a hundred years since it first appeared.
However, it had only flourished in the recent 30 years.
As for martial arts experts, the older they got, the less interested they were in such new things.
Guan Zhonghua, Luo Xuangong, Fu Neng, and the others didn’t have a deep understanding of the Internet because of their identities and positions.
Xiao Renwo actually didn’t know much either, but he was a born soldier and warrior. His subconscious spiritual perception was very high.
As soon as Su Jingxing’s Essence Soul mentioned the invasion of Internet information, it immediately struck him.
Cyber war!
In a war that happened on the Internet, no one would die, but the consequences might be even worse than that.
In an instant, Xiao Renwo inexplicably shuddered. He quickly picked up his phone and gathered the cyber experts in the army.
While the others were busy, Su Jingxing’s Essence Soul walked to the window and looked at the night sky, waiting quietly.
That’s right, it suddenly realized that internal strife also included the Internet!
Earth Star had already entered the information era. If the Yu Nation were to encounter a large number of hackers and computer viruses wreaking havoc, the information tsunami would still kill a large number of people.
If the banking system was also hacked and all the depositors were cleared, it would be strange if the Yu Nation wasn’t in chaos.
The more it thought about it, the more certain Su Jingxing’s Essence Soul was.
The chaos caused by the mastermind would come through the Internet!
…
It was dawn.
In the Yu Nation after the fusion, people everywhere headed to school or work.
Ma Xiaoluo, who was born and raised in the capital, washed up and drove to the company as usual.
In the early morning, everyone in the office turned on their computers, browsed the news, and read gossip.
As a junior leader, Ma Xiaoluo turned a blind eye to this.
She was also like this in the past. She just had to get used to it.
She opened the forum she frequented, scanned through the new posts, browsed through a few pages, and closed it.
Moments later, she opened the company’s back end and prepared to study some data.
Suddenly, the webpage flashed.
“What’s going on?” Ma Xiaoluo put down the cup in her hand and moved her mouse.
The webpage was still flashing, and as it did, the screen suddenly turned black.
Infected with a virus?
Puzzled, Ma Xiaoluo was about to call out to the maintenance staff next door.
“What in the devil?!”
“What’s going on? All the data has disappeared?”
“I can’t open them, all of them. All the websites have been infected with a virus!”
“What? You got it too? I can’t open the webpage either.”
“…”
The office was suddenly in an uproar. Everyone was exclaiming and shouting.
Ma Xiaoluo looked around and retracted her gaze. When her gaze landed on the computer again, she saw an animation of a skeleton praying to an incense stick flashing on the screen.
It’s really a virus!
This was Ma Xiaoluo’s first thought.
I can rest today?
This was Ma Xiaoluo’s second thought.
The company is finished!
This was Ma Xiaoluo’s third thought.
This was because all the company’s data was stored on the back end server.
Now that the data had been destroyed and cleared, the company’s efforts of more than ten years were all in vain.
“No!”
“No!” “No!!!”
At the end of the office, cries of grief, anger, and disbelief came.
Ma Xiaoluo’s heart skipped a beat.
Because it was the chairman’s voice. His assets had been wiped out in an instant.
Huh? All assets wiped out?
The banking system should be fine, right?
Ma Xiaoluo’s heart raced.
The bank is an internal system and independent, it should… should be fine?
Thump thump!
Thump! Thump! Thump!
Her heart raced, pounding against Ma Xiaoluo’s heart and soul. Her face turned pale and her body trembled.
In the next moment, Ma Xiaoluo pushed the chair away and ran towards the door.
She was going to the bank to withdraw money!
…
“Reporting, the other party is attacking fiercely. We are at a disadvantage.”
“Reporting, all private network companies have fallen.”
“Report, the bank is under attack…”
Yu Nation’s capital, building of the Information Processing Center.
In the spacious hall, the sound of keyboard tapping could be heard non-stop.
Dozens of cyber experts were typing crazily on the keyboard, shouting reports from time to time.
Invasion!
Invasion!
Invasion!
All the websites, Internet information centers, and servers in the country, be it large companies or official organizations, had been tampered with and hacked.
Su Jingxing’s guess was right.
The mastermind’s targeted chaos for the country was through the invasion of the Internet.
“Reporting, an urgent call from the Luori Prefecture. The barbarians have left the mountain!”
