Chapter 766: The Obvious Package

Penglai Continent, Wanghai City

Lin Jiang has arrived in Wanghai City, while Cao Ying is already holding a Tao Achieving level meeting in Huaxia. This time, Cao Ying plans to use Lu Xuan’s case to clean up the internal affairs.

This involves the Lin family itself, so Lin Jiang came both to avoid suspicion and to avoid Lin Ying; he went directly to Wanghai City.

Lin Jiang came with the main group. Huaxia has officially taken over Lu Xuan’s business, and Lin Jiang quickly turned it into his own private treasure.

It was meant for the Huaxia Official, but seeing the corruption revealed, Lin Jiang was upset. Instead of giving the money to those people who would misuse it, it was better to give it to him. At least Lin Jiang was truly honest in his living style, and this money would eventually be put into research.

Nowadays, Lin Jiang has contributed about 30 to 40 percent of Huaxia’s research funding. Without his support, at least half of the projects would have to be stopped.

"Ancestor, this time it was my mistake. Please punish me."

Qiu Weidao saw Lin Jiang and bowed to apologize.

"What does this have to do with you?"

"About the missing case on Penglai Continent…"

"That was the enemy’s trick; it has nothing to do with you. Don’t take the blame."

"Thank you for understanding, Ancestor."

Qiu Weidao felt a sigh of relief in his heart. This time, his responsibility was quite heavy. If someone attacked him, he could really be brought down.

"Work well, Qiu Weidao. Although I am old, I am not foolish. I know who is working and who is causing trouble."

Lin Jiang patted his shoulder. Lin Jiang actually understands a lot about Huaxia. He doesn’t even care about those who are corrupt because, after all, it’s human nature. If the water is too clear, there will be no fish; he understands this. However, if you take money, you must work and do your job with a sense of respect. You cannot take this for granted.

So Lin Jiang needs a knife, and that knife is Qiu Weidao. This is also the reason why many people have reported Qiu Weidao over the years, yet Qiu Weidao remains safe. As long as Qiu Weidao does not act recklessly, he will always be fine.

After chatting for a while, the two arrived at Lu Xuan’s secret base, where many people were present, and numerous related experts had already gathered there.

"We greet the two gentlemen."

"Tell me what Lu Xuan is doing."

"Sir, Lu Xuan should be conducting biological research."

"I know it’s biological research, and it is indeed a large topic. I need more detailed information."

"Yes, it should be gene editing and cloning."

"Tsk tsk, both are forbidden arts."

Lin Jiang said that Huaxia has already clearly banned these two studies.

Gene editing was banned first, and the reason is simple: if this activity were legal, wealthy people would edit the genes of their descendants. This would mean that all the wealthy people’s children would be geniuses, leaving ordinary people behind. Would the rich not rule over everyone else?

If the poor lose this chance, their future generations will have no hope at all, which is very unfair. Lin Jiang has brought a spirit of resistance to Huaxia, so there will be more and more uprisings to suppress.

As for clones, there are conflicts with ethics and morality. For example, do clones have rights? If they do, how do you define it? If they don’t, then what are they? Not to mention that some people might engage in illegal activities using this, so Lin Jiang decided to simply ban all research on it.

"Continue, tell me how far Lu Xuan’s research has gone."

"Yes, sir. Lu Xuan has destroyed the data in this laboratory himself. We cannot find detailed records; we can only deduce based on existing clues. Our guess is that Lu Xuan’s research in this area is advanced and is already ahead of us in Huaxia."

"So impressive?"

"It is not that he is powerful, but that we have prohibited this technology research. Lu Xuan, without any worries, has conducted more than a hundred live experiments based on clues, which are very cruel. The results of these experiments are very brutal, and there are at least over one hundred clones, though most of them have been destroyed by him, probably because they were defective failures."

"Can you be sure about the successful clones and gene editing results, Qiu Weidao?"

"We cannot confirm that yet. We are trying to break into his artificial intelligence core data. If we can obtain the core data, there may be a chance. Lu Xuan certainly uses computers to help with his experiments, but I am afraid he may delete the data or turn off the computer at a critical moment."

Qiu Weidao said that Huaxia’s artificial intelligence has already taken control of Lu Xuan’s artificial intelligence, but has not yet broken through the specific core data; these are two different matters.

"I will not get involved in specific business matters. Just tell me what support you need, and I will provide it."

Lin Jiang said calmly. He is definitely a good boss; he never gets involved in specific business matters and just provides resources and support, the main idea being not to interfere unnecessarily.

·········

"Ancestor, someone is coming."

On the beach of Wanghai City, Lin Jiang heard someone speaking beside him. He did not look up; he just waved his hand, signaling the people around him to disperse.

The person who came was none other than Li Qing.

Lin Jiang was also surprised; why was Li Qing here at this time? Was she trying to take over?

"Ancestor Lin really has a lot of free time, still sunbathing."

"Li Qing, I remember we are not very close. What do you want from me?"

"I specially came here to laugh at you."

"Laugh at me? I don’t know what is so funny about me."

"A proud Huaxia, the best in the world, has been defeated at Tianya Mountain Base by a wicked path. Thousands died, and even the highest commander guarding Tianya Mountain was killed. Two Tao Achievers needed help from a Space Battleship; isn’t this embarrassing and laughable?"

Li Qing sneered; yes, she came to laugh at Lin Jiang, with no other intention, just to laugh.

When she received this news, she felt completely refreshed, as if she had just drunk an ice-cold cola on a hot day. After so many years, finally seeing Huaxia in trouble made her very happy.

"The eye-catching bag"

"What does it mean?"

"Guess!"

"Are you insulting me?"

"Nonsense, if I’m not scolding you, who else would I scold? If you keep talking nonsense, do you believe I will hit you?"

"Then go ahead and try."

Li Qing was very angry and looked coldly at Lin Jiang, who was too lazy to move away from her.

He was too lazy to fight; it wasn’t that he couldn’t beat Li Qing, he just didn’t want to. Winning wouldn’t bring him any benefit.

"Ancestor Lin, I heard that Lu Xuan is the same Lu Xuan who faked his death back in the day on my Ying Continent?"

"What else do you want to do?"

"If it is Lu Xuan from the Ying Continent, then this place should be mine."

"Are you crazy? If you just talk and I ignore you, do you dare to take my land?"

Lin Jiang also became angry, instantly getting up and glaring at Li Qing. Is he crazy? Does he think he can take Lu Xuan’s land that stretches for tens of thousands of miles just because of this?

Where do you get the face to say that?

"I can give up my land, but I want to take Lu Xuan’s computer with me."

"Don’t even think about it; I will say this: if you want to take any benefit from me, be ready for a fight. Think about the power of the Ying Continent and if you have a chance."

Lin Jiang said coldly. He knew that Li Qing didn’t have the courage to take the land; she was only after Lu Xuan’s research results.

"Lin Jiang, Lu Xuan is from my Ying Continent, so logically, we from the Ying Continent should have a share of his research results."

"Oh really? Since you are from the Ying Continent, should we talk about the crimes Lu Xuan committed? Your people from the Ying Continent killed thousands of my Huaxia cultivators. Isn’t that reason enough for war?"

"Lin Jiang, do you dare to start a war? Don’t forget, the demon race is still here, and if we fight each other, we will both be defeated…"

"What nonsense are you talking? Both defeated? With you? You think you are worthy?"

Do you think having three Tao Achieving makes you strong? Believe it or not, with just one word from me, I could sink the entire Ying Continent.

"Are three Tao Achieving really that impressive? Do you know how many Tao Achieving we have in Huaxia? I’ll tell you, there are twelve…"

"You…"

Li Qing couldn’t hold back when she heard there were twelve Tao Achieving. Three Tao Achieving from the Ying Continent had already taken her a lot of effort, and she thought she could compete with Huaxia. But she didn’t expect this.

"What about you? Do you want to start a war? If you do, just say it. I support you."

"I’m sorry, I was being rude. Goodbye."

"Come back and apologize seriously, bow down, bend your waist properly. What are you looking at? If your apology isn’t sincere, I’ll destroy your Ying Continent."

Lin Jiang scolded, and under Lin Jiang’s gaze, Li Qing humbly bowed and apologized.

"This is just a problem."

Lin Jiang shouted angrily, "Isn’t this just asking for a beating?"

It wasn’t Li Qing’s business with the Ying Continent anyway; she had to come here just to seek a scolding. She’s really down in the dirt.

Qiu Weidao appeared quickly, probably because he heard Li Qing was here.

"Great Ancestor, are people from the Ying Continent here?"

"Yes, Li Qing is here. She wants the results of Lu Xuan’s research from me. Do you think she’s foolish?"

"She is quite foolish. We haven’t obtained it yet, and the Ying Continent has been acting high and mighty these years."

"Hmph, just because I’ve gained a little bit of strength, I think I’m so powerful now. I can’t be bothered to fight them; otherwise, I could really take them down."

Lin Jiang said, knowing that Li Qing had been working very hard for many years. The strength of the Ying Continent had grown quickly, even leaving Qingyun and Zhou Liao behind. However, that level of strength seemed very weak to Lin Jiang.

"Ancestor, I know what to do. If they truly dare to negotiate officially, I will have the officials push back."

"Alright, go ahead and do your thing. I’ll keep sunbathing."

Lin Jiang waved his hand; this matter was not worth getting upset over. He preferred not to be delayed from his sunbathing.
