Chapter 120: Follow-up to the Ma Ziji Incident

In the next few days, Zhao Dongsheng and Li Wenhao took over Ma Ziji's trading platform. They could see the data in the background clearly. Ma Ziji claimed to have earned more than 10 billion, which was indeed true. However, the unit was not Da Xia currency, but Z country currency, which was equivalent to more than 70 billion Da Xia currency. It seemed that he himself knew that if he publicized too much, it would arouse suspicion, so he concealed the data. Sometimes reporting too much is not a good thing.

Half of the money that Ma Ziji earned came from wealthy children from all over Daxia, and the rest came from other retail investors. After they took over the platform, they issued an announcement, claiming that they would return Ma Ziji's assets and the remaining money on the platform to users in proportion to their losses.

After the announcement was issued, it caused an uproar. Some people questioned it, while others had expectations. Most people believed that it was a hype by the platform to boost the virtual currency issued by the platform. In addition, the virtual currency issued by Ma Ziji did rise sharply at the moment the announcement was issued, but then slowly fell, which further intensified the public's doubts.

However, those who suffered losses on the Ma Ziji platform gradually received their refunds, which surprised everyone, and the price of the currency rose sharply again.

The platform then released another message saying that Ma Ziji had been brought to justice, and after returning all the money, the platform would be completely closed and all the virtual currencies issued by Ma Ziji would be destroyed.

Unexpectedly, the price of the currency not only did not fall, but instead rose even more sharply, increasing 1,000 times in just one day. Zhao Dongsheng and Li Wenhao were both amazed by this. This currency circle is too crazy.

They simply didn't care about it anymore. Two days later, after returning all the money to the users who had lost money, the two directly destroyed all the currencies issued by Ma Ziji and completely closed the platform. Those speculators were dumbfounded. All their investments were returned to zero, not a penny was left. Moreover, they could not find anyone to complain to, after all, the platform had issued several announcements.

This action of Ma Ziji platform was like a major earthquake in the virtual currency market, triggering a series of chain reactions. The virtual currency market fell to the bottom, and many people woke up and completely withdrew from the virtual currency market, which further aggravated the result. The virtual currency market entered a death spiral, and many people went bankrupt completely. No one expected that this seemingly huge market was so vulnerable!

Of course, the two "culprits" Zhao Dongsheng and Li Wenhao didn't know about all this. They had long returned to their own lives, and only found out about this incident a long time later. Of course, they didn't dare to tell anyone that they were the "heroes" for fear of being beaten!

In Zhang's mansion, the screams in the ancestral hall rang out again.

"You spendthrift! They have already returned the money to you, why did you still go in to give it back?" Zhang Xu cursed and beat Zhang Jingxuan.

"Ah~ Grandpa, I got your permission before I invested! You praised me a lot when I first made 10 billion. I asked you whether you wanted to sell it, and you told me to wait and make back the 30 billion that the Chen family stole from us before selling it!" Zhang Jingxuan screamed in retort.

"You're talking nonsense! I never said those words!" Zhang Xu said without blushing or beating his heart. He just wanted to vent now. It didn't matter whether Zhang Jingxuan was wrong or not. Besides, he also had to save face, so naturally he would not admit his ugly behavior in front of so many juniors.

Then he swung the whip in his hand even more violently.

The days passed in such a dull manner. Zhao Dongsheng returned to Miancheng after staying in Kyoto for a while. Chen Siqi also completely came out of the shadow of Ma Ziji. These days, she practiced at night, honed her fighting skills in the trial tower during the day, and occasionally took Xiaobai for a walk. Her life was quite fulfilling.

Everyone in the Chen family has reached the foundation-building stage. With their entire strength in this secular world, even a big country using all its trump cards would not be able to resist them.

"Hehe, brother, are you still reading novels? Aren't you too bored? You enjoy reading these rubbish on the Internet so much!" Chen Siqi rushed into Li Mu's yard and said with disdain. After she started practicing Taoism, she realized how childish those immortal cultivation and fantasy novels were.

Seeing Chen Siqi holding a big gold chain in her hand, with Xiaobai tied to it and flying in the air at the other end, Li Mu burst out laughing and said to Chen Siqi: "If you treat Liuyun like this, you will be in trouble when its spirit regains consciousness!" Liuyun is Xiaobai's real name, and Li Mu only remembered it later.

"Nonsense, I've been so good to Xiaobai, how could it possibly hate me?" Chen Siqi pouted, then looked at Xiaobai and said, "Is that right, Xiaobai?"

Xiaobai, who was flying in the air, also shook his head up and down vigorously, indicating that he agreed with Chen Siqi's statement.

"My Xiaobai is so well-behaved!" Chen Siqi said while gently stroking the tip of Xiaobai's sword.

"Let's go. Take your time reading that boring novel of yours!" Chen Siqi raised her head, took Xiaobai's hand and walked out of Li Mu's yard.

As soon as he reached the door, he ran into Li Yunxi who was returning home from school. Looking at Chen Siqi holding the sword, Li Yunxi was a little stunned, and then he returned to his cold look.

"Oh~, my niece is back so early? Why don't you play with your classmates before coming back? It's such a shame to waste such a wonderful time after school!" Chen Siqi said.

Li Yunxi ignored her and walked straight into the courtyard without even looking at Li Mu. She went to her room and closed the door heavily.

"Alas, children in their rebellious period are really troublesome!" Chen Siqi shook her head as she walked, saying in a somewhat connoisseur-like manner.

At this moment, Li Mu suddenly remembered that when Li Yunxi was a child, when she first met her old friend, a Sky-Swallowing Divine Beast, he also put a big chain around Tuntian's neck, making Tuntian so angry that he didn't eat for several days. Although Tuntian had already reached the Daluo Golden Immortal Realm at that time, because of the characteristics of his race, he wanted to eat everything he saw, so he naturally maintained the habit of multiple meals a day. For him, not eating for several days was very incredible.

Of course, this was not Li Yunxi's fault. Tuntian looked like a puppy, so she naturally thought of him as a pet brought to her by Li Mu. But later, Tuntian and Li Yunxi got along very well, and he even doted on Li Yunxi more than Li Mu. If Tuntian knew that Li Mu had made Li Yunxi suffer in the mortal world, he would definitely kill Li Mu.

Thinking of this, Li Mu couldn't help but raise his lips. He hadn't seen Tuntian for many years. At this time, Li Mu in the fairy world opened his eyes. He was ready to meet Tuntian's old friend.
