206: The Wang family was shaken and mobilized in full force!

Wang Zhenyue was stunned.

"Intercepted? All of them?"

"We're using the 'Xuanwu' Level 3 encrypted channel with a self-destruct trigger mechanism... how could it be intercepted across the board in such a short time?!"

Wang Yuan was even more completely dazed, then he snapped out of it and roared.

"Pull the power!"

"Quick! Pull the main switch in the server room! Physical network disconnection! Forcefully cut the power to all those servers and data centers!!!"

Wang Yun looked at the young master's near-breakdown and said helplessly.

"Young Master, it's useless..."

"The technical team reported that the opponent's methods are extremely eerie, not like a simple hacker intrusion."

"Several of our core servers, including the backup arrays, seem to have had deep parasitic programs implanted the moment the commands were tampered with."

"Now, let alone remote commands, even physical power disconnection or forceful hard drive removal... the core data inside is likely already being synchronously copied and uploaded."

He swallowed hard and continued with difficulty.

"Furthermore, our internal communications have been intercepted, which means the opponent likely already possesses real-time information on some of our contact points and personnel."

"Pulling the power now might only cause the remaining data to transfer even faster and more thoroughly..."

Wang Zhenyue's face instantly turned ashen.

Wang Yuan felt his vision go dark, his legs weakened, and if he hadn't been holding onto the back of the sofa, he would have collapsed.

It's over... everything is over!

Not only did the opponent know their greatest secret, but they had also directly seized their lifeblood in such a manner!

The more Wang Yuan thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong.

Suddenly!

A flash of inspiration hit him, as if he had grasped a life-saving straw, and he exclaimed.

"It's Ye Chen! It must be him!!!"

"Who else could it be? He just threatened us with the Black Prison matter, and as soon as we made a move, something went wrong!"

"How could there be such a coincidence in this world?"

"That bastard..."

"He had it all planned out!"

"He was just waiting for us to move, waiting for us to panic, and then catch us all in one fell swoop!!!"

Wang Zhenyue slowly closed his eyes, his chest heaving violently a few times.

When he opened them again, all the panic in those old eyes had been replaced by ruthlessness.

"Wang Yun."

"Present!" Wang Yun shuddered.

"Immediately assemble all the experts the Wang Family can mobilize."

"Recall everyone at the Yellow Realm and above."

"Bring your weapons. Now, immediately, go find Ye Chen."

Wang Yuan was stunned: "Grandpa, go now? Not waiting for him to come to us tomorrow? We..."

"We can't wait until dawn!" Wang Zhenyue interrupted him sharply. "We can't wait a single moment!"

He knew all too well that since the opponent could complete such a terrifying infiltration in a flash, it meant that the time left for the Wang Family was running out.

For every extra second they waited, the opponent might gain another piece of ironclad evidence sufficient to cast the Wang Family into eternal damnation!

Wait until dawn?

That would only result in Ye Chen perhaps paying a formal visit with people from the Dragon Group, and what awaited them would definitely be handcuffs and prison vans!

It would be the disastrous news of the Wang Family's century-old foundation collapsing!

Wang Yun was also shocked by the old man's decisiveness and asked hesitantly, "Master... assemble everyone?"

"Everyone!"

Wang Zhenyue said decisively.

"Train an army for a thousand days, use it for a moment! The Wang Family has reached a life-or-death crisis; why are we still holding back?!"

"Ye Chen dared to use such methods to seize our vitals, yet he didn't immediately make it public... why?"

"Because he also has to weigh the options!"

"No matter how much evidence he has, toppling my Wang Family still requires a process, time, and especially consideration of the consequences and backlash!"

Cold light flickered in Wang Zhenyue's eyes, as if he had seen through everything.

"He intercepted the data and controlled the servers, but didn't expose them immediately... this means he's also waiting, waiting for us to take the initiative to find him, waiting to state his terms!"

"This is a threat; it's to force us to negotiate!"

"In that case..."

"Let's go and have a good talk with him!"

Seeing the old man's almost distorted expression, Wang Yun dared not hesitate any longer and bowed deeply. "Yes! Master, I will arrange it immediately!"

Soon.

One figure after another appeared inside and outside the Wang Family manor.

There were many people, over two hundred in total!

The most terrifying thing was... even the weakest among them had already reached the early stage of the Yellow Realm!

A few of them had even stepped into the ranks of Xuan Realm experts!

This was the true underlying strength that the Wang Family had secretly nurtured for decades.

Usually scattered in various places as retainers or hidden agents, they would only be fully recalled when the family faced a life-or-death crisis.

Wang Zhenyue had changed into a black Tang suit and stood on the steps.

"Everyone."

"Tonight, the Wang Family faces a great calamity."

"A thief has seized our clan's secrets, intending to destroy our century-old foundation."

"This mission is not for personal vengeance, but for the survival of the family."

"Our target is only Ye Chen. At all costs, we must bring him back. If necessary..."

"You may take his life and reclaim everything that might have been leaked!"

The crowd below responded in unison, "Yes!"

The sound rolled like thunder, shaking the heavens and earth!

Wang Zhenyue nodded in satisfaction, his gaze falling on the three elderly men at the front of the line.

These three were his biological brothers and the three strongest members of the Wang Family besides him, all at the middle to late stages of the Xuan Realm!

"Second Brother, Third Brother, Fourth Brother," Wang Zhenyue said in a low voice. "This time, I'm counting on you."

The leading sallow-faced old man, the second eldest of the Wang Family, Wang Zhenshan, nodded slightly. "Rest assured, Big Brother. Even if that ignorant junior has the reputation of the Dragon Group, tonight we will certainly ensure he never returns!"

Wang Zhenyue said no more and abruptly waved his hand.

"Set out!"

In the next second, figures flickered.

Over two hundred experts quickly dispersed and got into dozens of black business vans in the manor... On the main road leading to Cloud Top Garden, vehicles were sparse in the early morning hours.

However.

A convoy consisting of dozens of uniform black modified business vans sped along the road at speeds far exceeding the limit, the muffled roar of the engines carrying far in the silent night.

Passersby who saw this display scrambled to get out of the way.

"Is this... the Wang Family's convoy?" A driver of a BMW 7 Series rubbed his eyes, looking at the eye-catching license plate of the Rolls-Royce in the middle of the convoy, and gasped.

"No mistake! That license plate is for Old Master Wang's exclusive use! Those cars following behind..."

"Holy crap, how many people are there? What big event has happened?"

The companion in the passenger seat was also stunned.

"Quick, take a picture!"

"This kind of formation hasn't been seen in years!"

"Is the Wang Family going to war with someone?"

The driver scrambled to pull out his phone and started snapping photos frantically.

The circle in Yanjing is neither too big nor too small.

The Wang Family convoy's unusually large-scale nighttime deployment was like a giant boulder thrown into a calm lake, destined to create ripples.

News began to spread through various secret channels to every corner of Yanjing.

Almost as soon as the convoy left the Wang Family, the various powers throughout Yanjing gradually caught wind of it.

Countless eyes quietly turned toward the direction of Cloud Top Garden.

The wind blowing through the tower heralds a rising storm in the mountains!

...Inside the detached villa in Cloud Top Garden that Chu Niubi had rented.

The hall was brightly lit, and Ye Chen sat on a sofa in front of three spliced curved screens.

Rows of dazzling encrypted data streams flowed across the screens like a waterfall.

Bai Wanqing watched quietly, while Chu Niubi was like a hyperactive patient, pacing back and forth not far behind Ye Chen, occasionally craneing his neck to see the screen but fearing to disturb Ye Chen, only able to scratch his head and mutter to himself.

"It's done."

Suddenly, Ye Chen hit the final enter key, took his hands off the keyboard, exhaled deeply, and stretched.

"It's even more 'abundant' than I imagined."

"What? What's done? Master, is it finished?"

Chu Niubi dashed to Ye Chen's side and asked eagerly, "That Wang Family... they haven't really done anything heinous and beyond description, have they?"

Bai Wanqing also put down her teacup, waiting for Ye Chen's answer.

Ye Chen crossed his arms. "Do you want to hear the concise summary version or the blunt and shocking version?"

"Is that even a question?!"

Chu Niubi didn't even think before slapping his thigh. "Of course the blunt version!"

Ye Chen's expression became strange.

"According to the encrypted files just intercepted, it can be confirmed that in the Southeast Region, at least more than half of the industrial parks have the Black Prison as their actual controller behind the scenes."

"Through its massive overseas network, the Black Prison is responsible for source transportation, channel laundering, military protection, and final revenue collection."

"And the Wang Family..."

Ye Chen paused, a cold light flickering in his eyes.

"Using some of its 'legal' overseas industries as cover and transit nodes, they provided crucial identity disguises and sanctuary for these activities of the Black Prison."

"The interests of both parties are so deeply intertwined that they can be considered one."
