MMO: Pierce Heaven Til’ It Breaks 810 No Matter The Cos

To a public company, if the company failed to control more than 51% of the shares, it meant that they were unable to control the firm. If someone tried to pull a hostile takeover and started buying out a company’s shares, when they became the largest shareholder, then the company would automatically become their property.

Wang Leitian’s original scheme was also quite scummy. He wanted to shift away the company’s assets, leaving an empty shell company for the shareholders. Unfortunately, out of his expectations, the Shangri-La project had suddenly made a comeback…

As business got better day after day, its development was progressing at a level that they could no longer halt.

With such a delicious piece of the pie placed right in front of him, how could he just give it up?

Before King Fifth even heard the news, Wang Leitian had already thrown his entire wealth out there, attempting to buy back the shares at high prices.

Although this would be a confirmed loss, as long as they managed to regain control as the majority shareholder before the transaction goes through, then everything would have been worth it.

Wang Leitian shook his head and sighed. “After gathering my liquid assets everywhere and even taking a loan of 2 billion, I’ve tried to buy back the shares at five times the price. Even with all those resources, it wasn’t enough…”

“Not enough money?” Tyrant Sword King the Fifth was stunned.

“No! This can’t be! We can’t just give up like this! We definitely can’t!”

“My hands are already tied… God f*cking dammit all! If it really comes to that, if we have no choice but to abandon the company, we’ll just shift out all our resources!”

Tyrant Sword King the Fifth stubbornly shook his head. “No! We definitely can’t!”

Overissuing stocks and sneakily shifting away the resources, these actions were not an option. If they get found out by others, they would be in a lot of trouble.

Furthermore, with such a high sunk cost invested in this project, if they stopped now, it would leave a bad taste in anyone’s throat.

Tyrant Sword King the Fifth’s face sunk as he repeatedly slammed his fist on the table. After thinking for dozens of minutes, he suddenly chuckled. “I have an idea. There’s still one person that can help us.”

“Who?”

“The Lin Family!”

Tyrant Sword King the Fifth laughed slyly as he picked up his phone and dialed Lin Wenyu’s number.

“Dad, do you have some time? I want to discuss something with you.”

…

When Li Yi returned to the Invincible Continent, after he went shopping spree in the Auction Hall, he went back and shut himself in his old home in Shattered Frost City once more.

He had One Big Bun decompose his entire set of three pieces of Demon God equipment and all the other legendary equipment. This time, even One Big Bun winced at the order.

“Boss, this thing had a 256 Holy Value, are you sure you wanna decompose this?”

“Plink plank pshhhh…”

Before Li Yi even replied, the equipment had already turned into a bunch of ingredients…

“Boss, these are Demon God Equipment, it’s considered top-tier right now, are you sure you wanna decompose this?”

One Big Bun hesitated briefly before his hands started to move, destroying the Demon God Equipment.

A few minutes later, the legendary Holy + 1001 had turned into history.

When Li Yi returned to his humble abode, he pulled out a whole pile of shiny Holy Crystals, slowly enchanting the Hall of Fame Equipment Set with them.

As the most OP equipment available currently, the Hall of Fame Equipment Set had an innate Holy Value of 100. Adding all ten pieces of equipment together, it was an exact 1000 points. Adding on the orange bow, without lifting a finger, the total holy value he had was at 1256 points.

Even with that much, he was not satisfied. He wanted to go further.

The first thing he wanted to enchant was “Glorious Emperor’s Ring of Bravery”. This single ring had stupidly strong attributes, it increased STR and AGI by 5000 points each, and it had the added special effect of increasing the user’s Territory Power by a level.

After the upgrade, the Hall of Fame equipment pieces were no longer white, they had all turned orange.

Both Li Yi’s hands started to glow in a rainbow-colored light. A brief moment later, a melodious fanfare started ringing out.

[Congratulations, you have successfully infused your weapon. It is now Holy +200!]

It was a success on the first try!

Li Yi breathed a huge sigh of relief as he kept away the Glorious Emperor’s Ring of Bravery before pulling out the Glorious Emperor’s Ring of Magic.

Unlike the Ring of Bravery, the Ring of Magic increased the INT and WIL attributes. The amount it increased was the same as the Ring of Bravery, and it also had the same added effect of increasing the user’s Territory Power by a level.

Just with both Glorious Emperor’s Rings, it already added two levels to the user’s Territory Power. This perfectly demonstrates the sheer power of the Hall of Fame Equipment Set.

[Congratulations, you have successfully infused your equipment. It is now Holy +200!]

It was another success!

Li Yi stopped his infusion as he started to hesitate. After a while, he picked up the ring once more, continuing his infusion session.

[You have failed to infuse your equipment with a new attribute. The Holy Crystal vanishes…]

[Your equipment has lost its Holy attribute…]

It failed!

Li Yi pulled out the Ring of Bravery.

[Congratulations, you have successfully infused your equipment. It is now Holy +400!]

It worked!

Li Yi’s eyes twitched, he reached his hands out once more without the slightest hint of hesitation.

As a flash of rainbow-colored light shone out brightly, the glowing orange ring was suddenly enveloped by a light bright enough to blind the entire room.

[Congratulations, you have successfully infused your equipment. It is now Holy +800!]

‘It’s done!’

Li Yi let out a huge breath of relief.

A Holy +800 “Ring of Bravery” was now in Li Yi’s grasps!

Seeing that his luck seemed decent and that he was on quite the streak, of course he would carry on!

This time, Li Yi tried his luck on the helmet.

“Tshh——”

[You have failed to infuse your equipment with a new attribute. Your equipment’s Holy Value dropped by 32 points…]

The infusion failed, but due to Li Yi’s high Infuser level, there was a certain chance that the losses would be reduced whenever his infusion failed.

This time, instead of having the Holy +100 vanishing completely, it had only dropped by 32 points.

“Again!”

Li Yi steeled his resolve as his hands once again glowed in a rainbow-colored aura.

Now that he had a Holy +800 Ring of Bravery as a backup, even if all the remaining Holy Values on his other equipment vanishes, he would not be concerned in the slightest.

“Ding!”

“Boss, King Fifth just held a press conference earlier, have you seen it?”

Just when Li Yi was just about to get into his infusion spree, Shen Lang sent him a private message.

“No, Why?”

“The Lin Family decided to put 10 billion as an investment into the Shangri-La project.”

“What?” Li Yi was shocked.

Li Yi immediately stopped what he was doing and went offline to get a grasp of the situation.

King Fifth holding a press conference was not a secret, it was public information that anyone could find through a quick search online.

After Li Yi watched the press conference from start to finish, he immediately gave Qian’er a call.

“Qian’er, come over to my room for a bit. Something’s up, this isn’t a joke.” Li Yi’s voice was extremely serious.

After five minutes, Qian’er walked into Li Yi’s room.

“Notify your father, tell him not to invest in the Shangri-La Project.”

“Why?”

“Look for yourself.”

Li Yi tossed a bunch of documents related to the “Wang Enterprise” to Qian’er.

Share overissuance, malicious formation of a shell company, desperate share buyback after the Shangri-La project got popular… This pile of documents were in-depth reports of a series of malpractices that the Wang Enterprise engaged in.

By the time Qian’er finished reading, her facial expressions changed completely.

Share overissuance, malicious formation of a shell company… What all of these meant was something Qian’er knew even better than Li Yi. If someone was caught engaging in these sort of investment fraud, even the lightest sentence would be a life sentence!

“I’ll make the call immediately.”

Li Yi immediately grabbed on to Qian’er’s phone.

“I’m only showing these documents to you to convince you, but you can’t tell your father about this. So, you better start thinking about how to advise him against doing this.”

Qian’er was originally stunned, but she instantly understood why. She nodded hurriedly, grabbing on to his hand.

Li Yi noticed that Qian’er’s little hand was actually trembling.

Li Yi could not help but chuckle. “King Fifth’s company is the one having trouble, why’re you so agitated?”

Qian’er’s answer nearly had Li Yi doing a spit take.

“If King Fifth’s company falls, then I won’t need to marry him anymore! Of course I’d be excited!”

Well, hell hath no fury like a woman scorned!

“If I don’t tell this to my dad, what should I say to him?”

“You can try this…”

Li Yi had prepared for this. He taught Qian’er a script of what to say.

The information he had gathered was extremely important. It was the key evidence of destroying Wang Enterprise. However, before he reached that final step, all the contents in these files cannot be leaked out to the public. Otherwise, the target would have time to make safety precautions, then all this would be for naught.

“Dad, I have some stuff I need to discuss with you…”

When Qian’er’s call got through, as soon as she said her first sentence, loud shouting was transmitted over from the other side.

“I don’t wanna listen to any of your excuses! Get back here, right now!”

Lin Wenyu had thought that Qian’er was calling to negotiate about her marriage.

When Ling Wenyu calmed down a little, Qian’er finally said, “The thing I wanted to discuss with you is related to the Shangri-La project investment!”

“When did you have a say in business-related stuff in the family? You better deal with your own issues first, stop making trouble for me.” Lin Wenyu had a very arrogant attitude.

Qian’er looked at Li Yi before she helplessly sighed.

With such an arrogant and unreasonable father, it was no wonder why she would want to run away from home.

“I heard that a person called Su Xiaomeng had purchased 40% of the Wang Enterprise stocks. You understand what this means more than me.”

The phone suddenly went silent.

“I’ve said what I’ve said, bye!” Qian’er hung up.

Li Yi sighed. “Has your relationship with your father always been like this?”

“Yep.”

“BAM! BAM BAM!”

Someone was knocking on the door, breaking the silence of the room.

“Qianqian, are you okay?” Someone from outside of the door shouted.

Li Yi was shocked, but after thinking a bit, he understood what had happened.

“Ring-a-ding, ring-a-ding, ring-a-ding-a-ling…”

What frustrated Li Yi the most was that this ringtone suddenly rang out at this exact time.

Qian’er’s phone started to ring. The caller ID – Lin Wenyu!
