"Yes, I'm wanted by the police..."
Lu Qingshan looked at the wanted poster Nasus had pulled up, then shook his head. "Looks like I'm not wanted again..."
This wanted poster only shows the image of an armored man, with only his eyes visible; there's not even a name. What kind of wanted poster is this?
"However, Shang Jie is in trouble. His appearance was drawn very clearly. I should have made him wear armor too!"
In Ling Yu's manor on Wind Thunder Island, Lu Qingshan lay under a tree, leisurely reading news on the virtual network.
The Ling Yu sisters hid to one side, whispering to each other, glancing at Lu Qingshan every now and then, as if afraid of being discovered.
" Kunshaluo is truly out of options. So what if he's Immortal God? Without Clone, he can only protect one place at most. With my Ghost King Avatar outside, the Treasure Pavilion can forget about continuing its business."
Lu Qingshan holds grudges.
Since he didn't have the authority to transact directly with banks, he chose Treasure Pavilion Treasure Pavilion the intention of retaliating if they dared to covet his treasures.
He originally planned to wait until he became Immortal, or at least as powerful as Immortal, before taking action. However, the appearance of the Ghost King Avatar gave him the ability to take revenge ahead of time.
" Nasus, take a look at the Treasure Pavilion's stock."
The virtual screen redirected to the stock page, where the Treasure Pavilion's stock, which had remained steadfast for tens of thousands of years, suddenly plummeted...
The color green is heartbreaking...
It only dropped by seven percent at once, so it seems that Treasure Pavilion is still trying to support the price.
With a 7% drop, Lu Qingshan, having leveraged his account, had a principal of 100 Hunyuan Unit, and earned 7 Hunyuan Unit in one go.
Moreover, this is just the beginning.
Lu Qingshan did not intend to stop after this success; his Ghost King Avatar Shang Jie had already begun planning their next operation.
"Teacher, what are you looking at so happily?"
Lu Qingshan looked up and saw the two sisters, Ling Yu and Ling Xi, standing in front of him.
Ling Xi was also holding a plate of pastries.
"I'm looking at the Treasure Pavilion's stock; it's down 7%, hahaha. If you guys have the money, you can buy some, but make sure you go short, don't get it wrong!"
Lu Qingshan laughed heartily, looking very happy.
The two sisters, Ling Yu and Ling Xi, were aware of the conflict between Teacher Lu and the Treasure Pavilion. Now that the Treasure Pavilion was in trouble, they were secretly pleased...
"Really, teacher? You can make money from it?"
Hearing that it could make money, Ling Xi's big eyes were already shining.
"Yes, there's a 98% chance of making a profit. Treasure Pavilion offended a ruthless person and is now facing severe retaliation. They're only managing to stabilize the market through hard work, but they won't be able to hold on much longer!"
When a wall falls, everyone pushes it down. Not to mention that Lu Qingshan still intends to continue his actions, even if he doesn't care, those financial giants who have been looking for opportunities in the Virtual Universe, as well as those individual investors, such as Luo Feng's younger brother Luo Hua, will definitely be able to see this opportunity. Once they enter the market, Treasure Pavilion simply cannot withstand it!
"Then I'll go buy some right away. I've never bought stocks before," Ling Xi said excitedly.
Ling Yu glared at her. "Stocks are very risky, don't buy randomly. Just do as the teacher said, buy short positions in the Treasure Pavilion."
"Hmm, I don't really know how, just let Xiaoxi help me."
Ling Xi disconnected for a while, seemingly to buy stocks. When she returned, she placed the pastries she was carrying on the table next to Lu Qingshan.
"Teacher, please try my cooking."
"Um."
Lu Qingshan picked up a piece of pastry and took a bite.
To be honest, it tasted really good. Even though Lu Qingshan didn't particularly like sweets, he still found the pastry quite delicious.
"Teacher..." Ling Xi seemed both excited and nervous, and secretly glanced at her sister.
After receiving an encouraging look from her older sister Ling Yu, she said, "Teacher, I want to become your disciple..."
So that's what they were discussing...
Ling Xi was also recognized by the system as Third-Class Genius, so Lu Qingshan certainly wouldn't refuse her. However, he wasn't in a hurry and asked with a smile, "Have you practiced ' Thunderlight Flash '?"
"Teacher, I've already mastered the second level of Thunderlight Flash."
As she spoke, Ling Xi moved, and three Phantom Body appeared on her body.
This level is already comparable to Lu Qingshan's eldest disciple, Lei Ming, but still a bit behind Parisi. Parisi has a good talent for Thunderlight Flash and has already reached the level of the Five Phantom Body.
Without even guessing, Lu Qingshan knew that Ling Yu had given his younger sister special tutoring.
Of course, this has nothing to do with him.
"Hmm, not bad..."
"Teacher, you agreed?"
Several Phantom Body merged into one, Ling Xi asked anxiously.
"Didn't you already call me teacher?"
"That... that's different. I want to be your real disciple." Ling Xi said anxiously.
Ling Yu sighed, lamenting her younger sister's foolishness. She said, "The teacher has already agreed."
"Really? Is the teacher really there?"
"Really, I promise you. Consider it payment for the pastries you gave me."
Lu Qingshan made his point clear this time.
"Yay!" Ling Xi jumped up happily, hugged her sister Ling Yu, and shouted, "Sister, I did it!"
"The teacher is still here, be careful."
Ling Yu pushed her away, then bowed sincerely to Lu Qingshan and said, "Teacher, Ling Xi is my only family. She is innocent, kind, and naive. I'm about to participate in the Genius Battle at the Virtual Universe Company Headquarters, Ling Xi is the only one I'm worried about... In the future, with you taking care of Ling Xi, Ling Yu will have no more worries..."
" Ling Xi is very sensible and doesn't need me to take care of her much. She's been taking care of me these past few days. Her cooking is delicious. Even if you wanted to take her away, I'd be a little reluctant..."
Lu Qingshan looked at Ling Xi and praised her.
"Hehe, sister... don't worry, I'll take good care of the teacher."
Ling Yu shook her head and said nothing more.
Her teacher was the most composed person she had ever met. Even when faced with the threat of Immortal God, he remained unmoved. Ling Xi felt very reassured with her teacher by her side...
Next, she can wholeheartedly participate in the Genius Battle, gradually becoming a powerful figure in the core of the Virtual Universe, and finally...
Memories flooded back. Ling Xi was too young to remember them, but Ling Yu would never forget them.
She must become strong, she absolutely must!
As Lu Qingshan had guessed, although the Treasure Pavilion incident only remained on the trending topics list for less than a day, it had already spread everywhere, making it impossible to eliminate its impact.
As short sellers joined in, Treasure Pavilion's stock finally couldn't hold on and collapsed...
Eight percent... nine percent... just three days later, when Lu Qingshan checked again, it had already dropped by twenty-one percent.
Those who originally held Treasure Pavilion stock, or those who bought at the bottom, sensed the impending collapse and began frantically selling, gritting their teeth to cut their losses...
Leaving them now would only result in a small loss, but if they continue to hold onto the stocks, they could lose everything!
At this moment, the initial investment of 20 Hunyuan Unit by Lu Qingshan has doubled!
