Chapter 365: Present

Chapter 365: Present

Jiang Shuxuan found Gu Xiqiao in just a couple of steps, she was following Xiao Yun and the others at this time with her head bowed low, and you couldn’t see her expression.

His eyes were on her, and he was about to move forward towards her, when he was intercepted by Baili Bin. Baili Bin raised his glass towards him, “Let’s have a drink, just the few of us?”

“Sure.” Jiang Shuxuan groaned internally, raising his head to look over to Gu Xiqiao. She had also raised her head at the same time, flashing him a smile when their eyes met before he finally nodded towards Baili Bin.

Baili Bin didn’t say anything at this time, but Murong Feiye was laughing somewhere nearby. “Qingqiu, our Young Master Jiang has already become a slave to his wife, moments after getting married. What more in the future?”

“Slave to his wife?” Tang Qingqiu turned the cup in his hand, a faint expression on his face. “It should be called a henpecked male.”

“Sure, whatever you say. It’s not like I really understand the profoundness of the Chinese language.” Murong Feiye leaned against the stool as he watched Jiang Shuxuan make his way towards them.

As soon as Jiang Shuxuan sat down, he asked, “What’s the matter?”

“There is something indeed.” Baili Bin threw out as soon as they were all seated. “I just heard from Aunt Shu that you and Qiao Qiao are leaving tomorrow?”

Baili Bin and the others felt that there was definitely something wrong somewhere, leaving on the second day after getting married. They wouldn’t believe even if they were told nothing was wrong.

“At this time, if there’s anything, you should just hand it to the ancient martial arts world or Peace Manor to handle. You’re both still on your honeymoon after all.” Murong Feiye couldn’t pass up the chance to keep rubbing this fact in.

Jiang Shuxuan turned the wine glass in his hand, not spilling a drop. He looked at Baili Bin, and said, “I’m going to accept my inheritance.”

Inheritance?

Wait.

Murong Feiye glanced at Jiang Shuxuan. “You’re telling me, you’re so strong right now, and you still haven’t completely accepted all of your inheritance?”

Jiang Shuxuan hummed indifferently.

Murong Feiye didn’t want to say anything anymore, he had been mulling over the idea of fighting against Jiang Shuxuan before this, but now… haha.

“You need to take good care of the place while we’re not around.” Jiang Shuxuan said, his tone light.

“Hm?” When Baili Bin heard these words, he clenched his fist. Knowing Jiang Shuxuan’s attitude which was like you couldn’t beat anything out of him with a stick, the man wouldn’t say anything like this without reason.

Thinking of this, Baili Bin glanced at the leader of America’s power world, who was standing in one of the corners of the banquet hall. Except for the two from America and Japan, the other faces held anxious expressions. He had been busy helping out with the wedding banquet the past few days, and he wasn’t really paying attention to what had been happening in the outside world. He couldn’t help but feel uneasy when he heard Jiang Shuxuan’s words.

He looked at Tang Qingqiu, noting that there was also confusion on the other’s face.

That’s right, the Tang and Baili family were close to the Jiang family, so both families had been busy with the wedding preparation, so he guessed Tang Qingqiu was also unaware of what was going on in the outside world.

“There is a 3% animal mutation all over the world.” Murong Feiye’s phone rang suddenly, looking up at the other two before looking towards Jiang Shuxuan, seeing that he didn’t look like he was intending to stop him, Murong Feiye continued, “At first, it’s just a variation, and the number is not large. That’s why the leaders of the power world have all gathered here. As for the percentage of 3%, it was calculated by Yu Ning, and he just sent it over.”

“3% of animal mutations?” Tang Qingqiu’s head snapped up, the wine glass in his hand almost tilting over as he looked to Murong Feiye. “How do you know? There are countless animals in the entire world, how can you be sure of this percentage?”

3% might not sound like a lot, but if you consider the total number of animals in the world, it would basically equal to tens of millions.

When the time comes, they could probably be buried under the numbers.

A video was being played at the center of the banquet hall, it was an interview with the bride and groom before this, which lasted for over an hour. Now, there was a well-known host standing in front of the camera, and he was standing on an avenue in N City as he excitedly exclaimed, “Miss Gu said that this was the place that she first met Mr. Jiang for the first time…”

Before he could finish his words, the whole screen suddenly made a ‘Zizizi’ sound.

The host’s excited face disappeared from view suddenly.

On the huge screen, a line in blood-red color suddenly appeared—[This is my wedding gift to you, do you like it?]

Although the words were just on the screen, everyone present could feel the terrible murderous intent from the words.

As soon as it appeared, the lively hall filled with chatter fell silent immediately, and even the musicians who were playing their instruments were shocked, their movements stopping.

A lot of the other people didn’t understand what the line meant.

But those who had been notified by Yu Ning regarding the 3% mutations knew, that was what the line had meant.

Jiang Shuxuan’s dark eyes were fixed on the words, his fist clenched tightly. No one could see it, but his fists were already exuding a chilling aura, and the chair his hand was on had gained a layer of frost.

He had been distracted by what the host was saying just now, about the scene where he and Gu Xiqiao had first met. Although he didn’t actually remember it, he felt something lingering just at the corner of his mind when he saw the avenue on screen.

But in the next second, he saw this instead.

This was his and Gu Xiqiao’s moment, he wouldn’t mess it up. He lowered his head slightly, covering up the hard, cold glint that was in his eyes.

A warm hand suddenly overlapped the cold, and Jiang Shuxuan looked up to see a pair of smiling eyes. “Brother Jiang, it’s alright.”

The turbulent, violent mood that he was in was soothed so easily by her smile, and when Jiang Shuxuan glanced at Gu Xiqiao’s face, his heart softened.

“Miss Gu, I can’t find this person’s ID.” Yu Ning walked over. He picked up his tablet, fiddling with it and it became a small handheld computer with a keyboard.

The line of words still hung in the middle of the screen, seemingly unscrupulous, and the atmosphere in the banquet hall had already changed and sombered.

Jiang Han, Shu Chen, and everyone else were going around, reassuring their guests.

Gu Xiqiao was still wearing her wedding dress, but she didn’t care. A faint smile on her face, she stretched out her hand. “Computer.”

Although she was smiling, everyone who was familiar with her knew that she was downright pissed inside!

Hearing this, Yu Ning immediately handed over his own.

Gu Xiqiao placed the computer on the table, her eyes narrowing slightly. Her long, white slender fingers flew across the small keyboard at an extremely fast speed, to the point where everyone beside her couldn’t keep up.

They could only see lines upon lines of codes jumping out on the screen.

The computer was something Yu Ning had assembled with his own hands, and it could be said to be the fastest computer in the entire world right now. And that was one of the reasons the people around her could only see numbers and codes appearing on the screen even though they couldn’t keep up with her movement speed!

Yu Ning was the only one who was still trying his best to keep up with the codes being entered by Gu Xiqiao.

He watched as she easily bypassed the fixed IP on his computer, diving directly into the center of the network, and after another line of code, a search bar appeared on the screen.

At the same time, after going into the network, she had already found who their enemy was. In order to avoid any interference from others, she had blocked out the entire country’s network and services. Only her handheld computer was functioning!

Gu Xiqiao squinted at the codes jumping up on the computer screen, then followed the trail of a normal IP.

The IP would always automatically jump out of her search bar, but whenever it did, Gu Xiqiao would accurately pinpoint its next location in the next second!

“Artificial intelligence?!” Yu Ning was finally able to see something, and he exclaimed in surprise. “Is there really such a thing?”

Artificial intelligence, it was a project that Yu Ning was currently working on. If something like this was really born in a country’s network, and holding bad intentions too, then the country was really in a dangerous situation.

It was no wonder he couldn’t track the IP address when he tried just now.

Though the expression on Gu Xiqiao’s face was indifferent, there was a hint of interest in her eyes. She managed to find the lair of the other, and also a few secret documents on the way. She flicked her had to take out a USB flash drive, inserting it into the computer and copying the files before destroying the source file.

“I’ve sent you guys a big gift, don’t be too surprised.” Gu Xiqiao said with a smile on her face, pressing the ‘Enter’ key. The white light of the screen reflected on her face, making the people around her shiver suddenly, and they rubbed their arms from the goosebumps on them.

At the same time, the ominous words on the screen that was in the middle of the banquet hall disappeared, changing back to the host’s picture. “This is First City High in N City, guess what I found? Do you see that? Miss Gu’s picture is still hanging on the bulletin board, and let’s see… Top national ranker! Miss Gu really is…”

***

And those computers around the country that had been jammed resumed their functions after a few more minutes.

Someone who was playing games was on the phone with support. “The computer is dead! I tried to force a shut down, but it didn’t work. Hurry and come over to take a look… huh? It’s fine now?”

Various other people were having similar conversations everywhere.

Those who were doing financial calculations, giving lectures, watching TV… all of their devices were stuck, and nothing they tried, from shutting down to restarting worked!

Although it was just a short ten minutes, this nationwide incident caused panic to the country’s administrator. Suspecting whether or not they had been attacked by hackers, he immediately gave a call to the state office.

After receiving the call, the minister also felt frustrated. It wasn’t anything warranting concerned at first, but then the computer of the Foreign Affairs Ministry also had the same problem, which meant he had to do something!

He gave a call to the upper levels, and while the ordinary people weren’t worried about it, the higher-ups were thrown into an uproar from this incident.

***

Gu Xiqiao put away the flash drive, then closed the computer before tossing it back at Yu Ning.

Yu Ning was still in a dazed state, but his hands automatically reached out to catch his precious computer.

“What?” Gu Xiqiao stood, her eyes narrowing at Murong Feiye and Tang Qingqiu, whose eyes were fixed on her unblinkingly.

Murong Feiye snapped out of it at the sound of her voice, then he blinked, still looking at her as he asked, “What did you just do?”

Gu Xiqiao tossed the flash drive up in the air twice, flashing him a faint smile after she heard his words. “Nothing much. Someone wants me to be unhappy, should I have let them be happy?”

“No, that’s not it. Just now…” Murong Feiye never felt like he was an uneducated person, but he was still feeling disbelief in his mind. “I say, the real hacking god of Nine Heavens should be you, right?”

He had always thought that Yu Ning, as well as the people under him were the hacking experts, but looking at it now, that didn’t seem to be the case at all.

Gu Xiqiao fiddled with the USB drive in her hand, but didn’t reply to his words. Her lips quirked up, and she merely smiled.

***

At this time, nobody knew, in a dark secret room where the only light was coming from the computer screen, the man sitting in front of it was going out of his mind. “No, how is this possible? How did Yu Ning manage to track my disguised address?!”
