"At a time like this, you still have such a good mood, buddy."
Xiang Jinghong gave a wry smile and explained the latest situation, her tone grave: "This can't go on."
Cao Mang, however, showed little concern upon hearing this; a sharp glint flashed in his eyes.
"These aristocratic families in Tianjun are clinging to their old ways and looking down on the world. They should have been eliminated long ago. Once this period of chaos is over, a large number of top positions in Tianjun will be vacant. Only then will things truly flourish and be full of vitality!"
He finished speaking with a soft sigh.
Regardless of how they've fought each other over the years, they've actually become closely connected.
You have me I have you.
Even with his ruthless decisiveness, he could not easily sever ties.
This time, Chun Chun was forced by the situation.
Xiang Jinghong understood the implication in his words and asked in surprise, "Brother, are you so sure? The lord has not made any move yet. Could it be that he has a backup plan? What exactly is he planning?"
Cao Mang picked up his teacup, smiled mysteriously, and said confidently, "What's the rush? The show has only just begun. Just keep watching."
At this moment.
Lin Yi was not idle.
His initial plan was to force out the true identity of this flawed emperor and capture the kingpin directly.
Unfortunately, the other party refused to take the bait.
The situation has developed to this point simply because things have gone astray.
The powerful families of Tianjun have become too big to handle. Even if they are managed to be recruited and appeased, there will be various obstacles in the future.
Taking this opportunity to eliminate a group of people may cause some short-term turmoil, but in the long run, the benefits definitely outweigh the drawbacks.
However, as the saying goes, too much of a good thing can be bad.
The aristocratic families, as the vested interests of Tianjun, are also a cancer in Tianjun, but they cannot be completely eradicated all at once.
At the current pace, if things continue to develop like this, the remaining powerful families will eventually have to side with the other side.
After all, they also need to make a living.
Things must be done step by step, and besides, not all the powerful families are corrupt; some are steadfast allies like Cao Mang.
"Let's fix this loophole first, then we can talk about the Emperor."
So far, Lin Yi has not yet forced the opponent to reveal their true form, but his strategy is already very clear.
The track is the track.
To truly defeat the opponent, you ultimately have to exert your strength on the track.
After immersing himself in the underlying code of the track for an unknown amount of time, Lin Yi suddenly looked up, his eyes gleaming.
"I see!"
With his current understanding of the track's underlying code, he is already able to see through some of the underlying architecture. As long as he calms down, he will naturally be able to see through the opponent's tricks.
"The so-called manipulation of vulnerabilities is not fabricated out of thin air; it is simply a layer of deceptive code covering the original vulnerability to mislead people."
Lin Yi clicked his tongue and said, "Putting a shell on the original vulnerability and then giving these shells away to a bunch of powerful families, this guy has quite the ideas!"
The powerful families thought they had found a real loophole in the race track, but it was just a shell. It looked usable, but in reality, the fate of the race was entirely in their hands.
He can't change the real root cause of the problem, but he can easily tamper with this superficial shell.
That's why the vulnerability failed before.
Once people like the Sun family return to his side, he can replace the shell and reuse the loopholes in the track.
With this one trick alone, this flawed emperor could completely deceive the entire Tianjun.
If Lin Yi hadn't been able to see into the underlying code of the track, he would have been kept in the dark.
Unfortunately, a smokescreen is ultimately just a smokescreen.
Once exposed, it's just that—nothing special.
Lin Yi chuckled: "Since you like playing with shells so much, I'll add another shell for you too."
In less than half a day, the last track development team, which had been at a standstill, was suddenly given a new lease on life!
The already stalled progress skyrocketed, and in the blink of an eye, several tracks were completed in succession!
The moment the fragments of divinity were obtained, the scattered hearts of the people instantly rallied, and everyone was immediately filled with renewed vigor!
The underground area of the West District.
Ye Wumian stared at the suddenly changing situation on the jade talisman, his face ashen.
All the previous methods used to suppress the track team have suddenly become useless!
No matter how he locks the nodes or tampers with the virtual shell, the other party can bypass it precisely, as if entering an empty field.
In the footage of Tianwu Hall monitored by the jade talisman, Lin Yi suddenly looked up and smiled silently.
"Bastard!"
Ye Wumian suddenly felt like he had been tricked.
Looking into Lin Yi's eyes through the jade talisman, he felt like a clown!
Ye Wumian laughed angrily on the spot: "You think this will break the deadlock? With so many powerful families turning against you, how do you plan to win them back?"
When powerful families choose sides, the worst thing they can do is to be fickle.
Given the current situation, even if the track team resumes its progress, these powerful families, having already made their choice, are now on the opposite side of Lin Yi.
Even if they are brainless, they would never easily switch sides and go back.
It's true that they'll help whoever wins, but every choice comes at a cost.
Not everyone can afford it.
Moreover, so far, these aristocratic families have not suffered any substantial losses; at most, they have simply returned to their former state and are now competing head-on with Lin Yi's track development team.
However, Ye Wumian's smile soon faded.
Including the Sun family, who led the way in surrendering, all the other aristocratic families who surrendered to him had their track loopholes rendered useless.
No one is spared!
"Impossible! Absolutely impossible!"
Ye Wumian was shocked to realize that his proudly constructed fake vulnerability scheme had completely collapsed without him even noticing.
He refused to believe it and immediately tried to save him.
He knew how Lin Yi had done it, but he could roughly guess that it was just a shell.
It's a case of shell against shell, and he might not necessarily lose!
After all, he knew the inherent loopholes in the track. Lin Yi's facade could fool others, but it couldn't fool him.
As a result, Ye Wumian buried himself in the research for three whole days.
They simply couldn't crack it.
For a time, the Sun family and other prominent families were in dire straits.
The Sun family was alright; as the first prominent family to take the plunge, they at least managed to reap some benefits.
The other aristocratic families who defected later hadn't even gotten a taste of the benefits before this happened.
They suffered setbacks when they were with Lin Yi, and they're still suffering setbacks now that they've betrayed him.
Wasn't this a futile act of betrayal?
Now that things have come to this, it's pointless for them to turn back and beg Lin Yi for forgiveness; even if Lin Yi were willing to take them back, it's still uncertain whether he would accept them back.
What they feared most was that once they truly returned to Lin Yi's side, the emperor might come up with new tricks to exploit the loopholes here.
They'll be the ones who suffer the consequences and bleed in the end.
That's a complete clown!
Little did they know that the flawed emperor they had placed their hopes on was coughing up blood underground.
Ye Wumian had disheveled hair and bloodshot eyes.
Looking at his latest conclusion, he staggered backward as if in a frenzy, muttering incoherently.
"How is that possible? How could he change the track? That's clearly an absolute domain that only a god could reach!"
In his mind, the underlying code of the track was exclusive to the God and could not be modified by anyone.
Since he has already observed the original vulnerability, Lin Yi can at most cover it up. Using a shell to create a smokescreen like he did will never substantially change the track!
