155: Go quickly and invite the Buddha! [Thanks to all the dads for the food!]
"Useless trash!"
Li Xuanfeng slapped him, instantly turning the fat man into a mist of blood!
He slammed the table and stood up. The terrifying pressure of the Saint Realm caused the entire top floor to twist violently!
He couldn't understand it no matter how hard he thought!
What on earth happened?!
He had already ordered the City Guard and all the Li Family's forces to search the entire city for that Little Beast named "Su Jue."
Why hadn't that Little Beast been found yet, while his own home base had been raided first?!
And in such a way that he couldn't comprehend at all!
This wasn't a normal business attack at all!
What kind of business attack could collapse the financial system of a main-star-level city within an hour?!
This... this was simply a natural disaster!
It was a dimensionality reduction strike!
"Su Jue..."
Li Xuanfeng's teeth... were gritting together audibly.
He was certain that all of this definitely had something to do with that mysterious Infant!
"Investigate!"
"Investigate it for me!"
"Even if you have to turn the entire federation's database upside down, I must know exactly how he did it!"
Li Xuanfeng roared crazily at the empty room.
He had a strong premonition.
Their Li Family might... really fall this time... fall into the hands of a Remnant of the Su Family!
...In the Slums, inside a small, dilapidated house.
Su Jue was interestedly researching the system's new function—"Financial Alchemy."
He found that this function was even more fun than he had imagined.
Not only could he directly exchange energy points for federation coin.
[1 energy point = 100 federation coin]
He could also do the reverse and exchange federation coin for energy points!
It's just that the exchange rate was a bit of a scam.
[10,000 federation coin = 1 energy point]
Simply a black-hearted merchant!
In addition, he could consume energy points to launch "Law" level attacks against the entire financial network.
For example... [Function One: Data Virus. Consume 100,000 energy points to create an unremovable Data Virus that will cause the stock price of a designated target company to drop to zero within 24 hours.]
[Function Two: Credit Evaporation. Consume 1,000,000 energy points to erase a financial institution's "Credit" from the Law level, causing it to go bankrupt instantly.]
[Function Three: ...]
As Su Jue looked at these functions, his eyes grew brighter and brighter.
How was this "Financial Alchemy"?
This was clearly a "Causality Weapon"!
He chuckled.
Then, he locked onto the largest name on the screen.
— [Li Group].
"System."
"Erase the credit of this Li Group or whatever it is."
"Deduct as many energy points as needed."
Su Jue waved his hand with grand spirit.
He had plenty of money now!
And plenty of energy points!
[Ding!]
[Command confirmed!]
[Target: Li Group.]
[Executing 'Credit Evaporation'...]
[Estimated energy points consumption: 50 million.]
[Execution complete!]
[Li Group... has been declared bankrupt... at the level of Financial Law!]
At the very moment the system notification sounded.
On Lihuo Star No. 3, and even throughout the entire Lanxia Universe Federation.
All financial Data related to the "Li Group" underwent a strange transformation.
In the federation's central bank database, the Li Group's "AAA+" credit rating turned into a blank space in an instant.
Immediately afterward, the terminals of all companies, banks, and individuals doing business with the Li Group received an official notification from the federation system.
[Warning! Due to unknown reasons, the 'Li Group' credit system has completely collapsed and has been judged as a highest-risk target! All partners are advised to terminate cooperation immediately and liquidate all related assets to avoid risk!]
This notification was like a thunderclap, exploding in everyone's minds!
The Li Group!
That behemoth that had been passed down for thousands of years, with assets spread across hundreds of star systems and influence permeating every field of the federation!
Its credit... had collapsed?!
How was that possible?!
This was more absurd than someone saying the sun rises from the west!
The first reaction of countless people upon seeing this notification was that the system had made an error or that it was someone's prank.
However, when they tried to contact the Li Group, they found that all official channels had been cut off... and when they tried to sell off Li Group stocks, they found that the trading system directly rejected all related transactions.
Panic!
An unprecedented panic spread like a virus!
...Li Group Headquarters Building.
Top floor.
"Pfft—!"
Li Xuanfeng looked at the sternly worded inquiry letter from the Federation Central Bank on his personal terminal and the credit rating that had already turned gray.
No longer able to suppress his rising blood and qi, he violently spat out a mouthful of Origin Saint Blood!
His face turned as pale as paper.
Bankrupt?
Their Li Family... had actually gone bankrupt... just like that, for no apparent reason?!
He couldn't understand!
He completely failed to understand!
This had exceeded the scope of his cognition!
Credit is something invisible and intangible, yet it truly exists.
It is the foundation that a family, a group, has spent the blood and effort of countless generations to build!
Now, this foundation... had actually been erased by someone just like that?!
What kind of method was this?
This was a method that only a god could possess!
"Su... Jue..."
Li Xuanfeng's body couldn't help but tremble violently.
For the first time, an emotion called "fear" appeared in his eyes.
He finally realized what kind of monster he, and even the entire Li Family, had actually provoked!
That wasn't a person at all!
That was a natural disaster... in human skin!
How did they let him escape back then!!!
"Quick! Go quickly and invite the Ancestor to come out of seclusion!"
Li Xuanfeng let out a hoarse roar.
He knew that things had completely spiraled out of his control.
Now, the only one who could save the Li Family... was that Great Saint Realm Ancestor who was in deep seclusion, striving for a higher realm!
