"This haul isn't bad..." Lin Yun whispered.
Over 1.3 trillion Huaxia Currency, over 180 billion US dollars, over 20 billion pounds, and several billion euros... This was the money Lin Yun transferred out from the bank accounts of some Mie Family members and several of the Mie Family's business accounts.
Lin Yun had long had the ability to operate the accounts in many banks on Earth, but such operations were easily detected and caused too much attention. He didn't want to do this unless necessary.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
However, after he killed those members of the Mie Family, it wasn't a problem for him to transfer the money from the bank accounts of those members and some of the Mie Family's business accounts.
The banks could not confirm whether or not it was someone from the Mie Family who transferred this money and in what situations they transferred it.
The total sum exceeded 2.6 trillion Huaxia Currency, a wealth that was utterly terrifying.
It was indeed a centuries-old family with great power in the military, political, and commercial sectors of Huaxia, Lin Yun pondered.
This didn't even take into account some fixed-assets, which there weren't very many of anyway.
This was because, within the Mie Family's conglomerates and companies, there were shares owned by many individuals and forces, but the cash flow of these groups and companies was all mixed.
The cash flow of a group or company is very important.
For certain corporations, the cash they hold, if subtracted from their company debts, may exceed the remaining value of the company itself.
Thus, the money Lin Yun transferred was essentially all of the Mie Family's assets.
As for the possibility of those corporations collapsing without this cash flow, that wasn't Lin Yun's business. Presumably, the Mie Family's shares and other fixed assets could make up for these losses for the time being.
Indeed, crime did pay well.
Even with the assistance of the Cosmic Trading System, Lin Yun would need quite a bit of time to earn 2.6 trillion Huaxia Currency. Even though he had recent dealings with several major brands, and the profits from Qingyun Hotel and Qingyun Restaurant were quite substantial, they only totaled to several tens of billions of Huaxia Currency.
Now, in a single night, he had vastly multiplied his wealth.
All the wealth accumulated by the Mie Family over the centuries now belonged to him.
This was a highly thrilling affair.
Of course, this was only possible for him.
He had access to many Earth bank accounts, which would not have been an easy feat for others, even governmental institutions like America's.
Now that he suddenly had so much capital, he didn't need to worry about spending it on Earth for quite some time.
"The Lu Family..."
Soon, Lin Yun shifted his attention to the Lu Family.
"Have some of the Lu Family's offspring started to relocate..." Lin Yun whispered.
There were special arrangements within the Lu Family. If these people hadn't left the Family's premises, it would have been difficult for him to find out their whereabouts. However, now that they had left, it would be very difficult for them to escape the detection of his supercomputers.
It seemed that these people had the wrong idea about escaping death by leaving the country.
They were just within his range in Capital City, but if they left the Capital, his scruples would be significantly less.
Lin Yi, Lin Jiu, and others had already gone off to kill some of the Mie Family's descendants.
Lin Yun closed his eyes, ready to practice a martial technique while waiting for them.
Half an hour later, Lin Yi, Lin Jiu, and others returned.
"We're heading to the Capital City... Lu Family..." Lin Yun said, opening his eyes.
He didn't inquire about the results of their mission to kill off the Mie Family descendants, because Lin Yi and Lin Jiu had already updated him.
"Also those children from the Mie and Lu Families that escaped, I heard they were all killed too. Truly, no matter how far, none were spared..."
Some people gasped, lamenting in unison.
"All those grandmasters who were protecting the children of the Lu family were killed too, we were lucky that we didn't covet their wealth..." Those martial arts grandmasters who had left the Lu family, one by one voiced their fear.
It hadn't been long since then, just over an hour perhaps?
One decision could be the difference between life and death.
An hour earlier, they were unaware of how close the Grim Reaper had come.
"We were previously stationed at the Lu family's, Qingyun Company and Lin Yun... they wouldn't hold grudge against us, right?" A martial arts grandmaster thought of something and quickly voiced out.
"Originally, very few people knew we were stationed at the Lu family's. Now, almost everyone in the martial world knows. This must be the Lu family's propaganda, damn the Lu family..." A martial arts grandmaster gritted his teeth.
"We should be safe, after all, we left the Lu Family early... Wei Donglai, Wang Zhenhai, they are all okay, right?" another grandmaster frowned and spoke.
The Qingyun Company's consecutive victories left them stricken with fear.
"Those who offend the Qingyun, no matter how far, will be condemned," this statement left a deep imprint in their hearts.
"About that, it's uncertain. Maybe, the Qingyun Company is waiting for the right moment, for now, they might not want to make too many enemies. Now that the Mie and Lu families have been destroyed, it is hard to say they won't create troubles for us..." a martial arts grandmaster expressed his worry.
"Personally, I think we are overthinking. Now, the stream of news tells us that for the Qingyun Company, killing a martial arts grandmaster is not much different from killing an ordinary person.
The children and the grandmasters from the Lu and Mo families that fled were all killed, it should not be too difficult for them to kill us if they really wanted to..." a martial arts grandmaster shook his head.
"I suggest we all get back to our regular lives, eat, drink, continue our martial arts training. With the strength that Qingyun Company has displayed, if they wanted to kill us, we wouldn't have much strength to resist. And if nothing happens to us in a day, we can assume that Qingyun Company probably won't bother us." He paused, then continued.
"Well said."
"Shall we disperse?"
Very soon, these martial arts grandmasters, who had left the Lu family, dispersed.
If nothing happened to them in a day, then if they encountered any member of Qingyun Company in the future, they would surely keep their distance.
This sentiment resided in their hearts, though none of them verbalized it.
In a certain location, the headquarters of the Sky Group.
"The Lu family was wiped out too? How did it happen so fast?"
"Damn! The damn Qingyun Company!"
"They dared to run wild even in the heartland of the nation!"
"The Qingyun Company must have the support of an official organization from another country. Otherwise, how could they have the super energy bomb, the super energy protection shield, how could they have arrived in the Capital City so quickly and discreetly? I have already asked people to investigate, have the results been found yet..."
"'Those who offend the Qingyun, no matter how far, will be condemned', haha, what a big and wild boast! 'Those who offend Huaxia will also be condemned no matter how far.' Let's check where the people of Qingyun Company have gone. They dared to kill five of our members, we absolutely cannot let them off..."
The high-ranking members of the Sky Group expressed their anger one after another. Explore new worlds at empire
"I've already applied to the elders to intervene..."
A high-ranking official who seemed to have a high status, spoke solemnly.
"And what about those elite divisions, the Flying Eagle Guards, and so on? Starting from the top, none should be spared. They are there to protect Huaxia, they are not private militias. If they didn't take orders from those big families and act recklessly, how could such a big incident have occurred?"
"And we must warn those big families, to stop them from robbing and looting. If they are discovered, they won't be let off lightly..."
He then turned to some people and sternly warned them.
"Yes, if they hadn't stirred up trouble, such a catastrophe would not have occurred. So many deaths, including twenty martial arts grandmasters, five of whom were Sky group members. The impact and the severity of this incident is severe..."
Some high-ranking officials of the Sky Group nodded in agreement.
