Volume 1: Turbulence on Earth Chapter 2: Birthday Banquet

  It's also because Ouyang Jueyu has to stay in the mountain villa for ten years, which makes every birthday of Ouyang Jueyu a grand and earth-shaking event. Not to mention that all the members of his own family, over a hundred people, attend, as well as invited experts from various fields and politicians, let alone underworld bosses giving face to Ouyang Wu, even other three major families and some ancient sects come to congratulate him.

  This led to the later participation in Ouyang Qiu Yu's birthday banquet becoming a symbol of status, making many people eager to participate, and the Ouyang family also had enough economic strength and connections to operate this large social event, which was successfully held with great fanfare every time for two years.

  Although Ou Yang Zuo Yu didn't intentionally show off, after all, he had lived for tens of thousands of years, and it was impossible for him to be as naive as an ordinary child. As soon as he showed a bit of maturity, people were shocked and thought him a genius. Adding to the mysterious legend surrounding his birth, no one dared to underestimate him.

  Ouyang Jueyu, this little emperor, is about to turn three years old. The whole family is busy preparing for his birthday banquet.

  Murong, Dongfang and Ximen, the three big families, of course, all know the weight of Ouyang Jueyu, this little emperor in the hearts of all members of the Ouyang family. Although the four big families have been fighting for years, they are all families that have been passed down for thousands of years, and the complex relationships among them are not something that outsiders can understand.

  Actually, the heads of the three big families, Murong Shi, Dongfang Lang and Ximen Qingfeng, all admire Ouyang Tiande. His martial arts skills are higher than theirs, which is tolerable, but unexpectedly, his business skills also surpass theirs. What's even more infuriating is that his children are more talented than their own. The only consolation is that the third generation of the Ouyang family doesn't have a son, which is also the greatest advantage of the other three big families. After all, no matter how strong you are, if there's no one to inherit your legacy, it will still be inherited by others. Unfortunately, their wishful thinking was shattered by the birth of Ouyang Jieyu.

  Murong Mountain Villa, Murong Shuo stood with his hands behind his back, gazing at the over ten-meter-tall artificial hill in front of him. His eyes occasionally flashed with a sense of loss, admiration, and excitement, before finally revealing a deep smile. He turned around to face his butler, Murong Zhan Tian, who had followed him for over a decade, and said: "Zhan Tian, go prepare everything. I'll personally attend the birthday banquet at the Ouyang residence this time. I also want to see if Ouyang Jueyu is truly as talented as Xiaoyu and the others say. After all, she's the key figure who will determine whether my Murong family can reclaim its position as one of the top four families within the next few decades."

  Murong Tian bowed and replied, "Alright, sir. I'll go take care of it right away." He then turned around to leave.

  "Wait!" Murong Shu suddenly shouted.

  "Is there anything else you'd like to instruct me, sir?" Murong Tian's face was forever a picture of respect.

  Murong Shi was also accustomed to the butler's attitude, and thinking of his lively and lovely little granddaughter Murong Wanqiu, he couldn't help but smile and say, "Tell Xiao Yu that I'm taking Wanqiu with me."

  At this time, the master of the Dongfang family, Dongfang Lang, was on the phone with the master of the Ximen family, Ximen Qingfeng.

  "Hey Qingfeng, I'm sure you've also heard about the genius from the Ouyang family, right?" Dongfang Cang said as soon as the call connected.

  "Of course, I've heard that the third generation of the Ouyang family is someone everyone is paying attention to. Could it be that you, Dongfang brother, also have an interest in taking a look at this genius from the Ouyang family?" The voice of Ximen Qingfeng came through the phone.

  Dongfang Lang asked with a profound tone, "Brother Qingfeng, aren't you also interested in this little genius from the Ouyang family?"

  "Haha..."

  "Haha..."

  Two old men were each thinking their own thoughts while laughing loudly together.

  In H city, Sheng province, two taxis were waiting for customers by the side of Jiefang East Road. A young driver opened the car door, pulled out a pack of Honghe cigarettes and lit one up, making a throwing motion to an older driver leaning against the car door. The older driver shook his head to indicate he didn't want one. The young driver put the cigarette in his mouth, took out a lighter from his pocket and lit it quickly. After exhaling smoke, he said to the older driver: "Older brother, has something big happened in the city recently? It's rare to see super luxury cars and top-level sports cars, but today there are so many of them, all together in groups of seven or eight. I just saw eight of them earlier, damn it! The worst one was a Mercedes-Benz S600, if someone gave me one, I'd be set for life. It's really frustrating to compare with others."

  The middle-aged man quietly listened to the young man's complaints, and after the young man finished speaking, he smiled calmly and said, "You've been in this line of work for less than a year, right?"

  The young brother asked in surprise: "Older brother, how did you know? I've only been doing this line of work for less than ten months."

  The middle-aged man hehe smiled and said, "Because what you said happens every year at this time since the year before last, this is already the third year, so I inferred that you haven't been in this line for a year."

  "Oh??? There's actually something like this? Why is it like that?" The young brother asked curiously.

  The middle-aged man showed a yearning look in his eyes and said in a low voice, "Because it represents that one's birthday is approaching."

  ………………………

  A newcomer in a gang in H city asked a senior member who had been a junior for many years: "Brother, I'm new to the gang, what should I pay attention to? Thank you for your guidance." While speaking, he respectfully offered cigarettes and helped light them.

  That veteran younger brother who has been mixed for N years, where did he enjoy such treatment? He was praised by this new younger brother and couldn't help but feel complacent. He thought that the younger brother in front of him was really good enough, and no matter how he looked at it, he felt comfortable. He even secretly thought about whether to promote him more in the future. Where did he remember that he had been mixed on the road for N years and still a younger brother? At most, he was just a younger brother who had been mixed for a long time and had some seniority.

  The veteran younger brother revealed a self-proclaimed profound gaze, coughed and pretended to be serious: "Recently, there are indeed places on the road that need attention. If you're not careful, you might lose your head, so be careful, kid."

  The newcomer hastily nodded and bowed, saying "Yes yes yes, I'll definitely pay attention." Then he immediately asked with a flattering expression, "Big brother, is something big happening on the road recently?"

  The senior brother looked at the new junior brother with satisfaction and said, "Since two years ago, every year around this time, H City has been a forbidden zone for the underworld. Several big bosses of the underworld jointly declared that in the past half month, no matter who dares to cause trouble in H City, they will be hunted down by the full force of these underworld bosses. This is already the third year."

  The newcomer exclaimed in surprise: "Big brother, why is this?"

  The senior younger brother's eyes flashed with a hint of admiration and said with utmost longing, "And all this is just because someone's birthday is approaching."

  ……………………

  H City Police Department, a middle-aged man who was transferred to the criminal police team as the captain this year due to cracking down on a major theft gang, muttered to himself in his office: "What's going on with H City these days? Not only have those guys on the road stopped causing trouble, but even those small-time hooligans are behaving themselves. For several days, there haven't been any of the usual petty thieves and pickpockets. When things go against the norm, something strange is bound to happen. Could it be that a major case is about to occur?"

  A police officer passing by the captain's office happened to hear the new captain's muttering to himself and couldn't help but laugh: "Captain, there's nothing unusual about it. Since two years ago, every time this time of year comes around, it's always the quietest time in the police station for a whole year. This is already the third year now. For half a month before and after, I reckon even the smallest thief wouldn't show up."

  "Oh......? Why is this?" The captain asked in puzzlement.

  The team member flashed a relieved smile and said, "Because it means someone's birthday is coming up."

  …………………………

  Ouyang Manor, the parking lot inside the manor has hundreds of top-of-the-line luxury cars parked, and the private airport behind the manor also has seven or eight super-luxurious private jets parked. The indoor banquet hall is filled with guests at this moment, and the flowing water table is spread with various fruits and desserts. Next to it, the wine cabinet has all kinds of wines, not only are they complete, but each bottle costs tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of yuan. Some special vintage red wines even cost millions or tens of millions per bottle. The guests all have their own circles, but most of them are showing off their skills in the banquet hall, constantly making new friends. After all, no one in this hall is a simple person. To put it bluntly, anyone who gets hit by a brick could be a provincial-level official or a billionaire. Everyone is chatting and waiting for tonight's main character to arrive.

  At this moment, Ouyang Jueyu was in his study room, hugging a top-of-the-line laptop and engaging in a hacking battle with an American hacker group. After discovering that the spiritual energy in this world was scarce and it would be impossible to cultivate quickly, Ouyang Jueyu knew he might have to stay in this world for a long time. At birth, using his divine consciousness, he had arranged for the "grandfathers" of this world to build the Jueyu Mountain Villa according to his own design, which only contained some simple spirit-gathering arrays.

  Because the spiritual energy has not changed much since its establishment, it was said that it would be three years old before entering to cultivate. Also, because there will be a long period of time in this world in the future, so in these three years, I have learned as much as possible about the knowledge of this world. With my strong spiritual soul and hundred-year-old knowledge, learning the knowledge of this world is like copying from a computer. In just three years, I have learned about 70-80% of the knowledge of this world. Hacking is what I liked to learn after studying computer knowledge.

  In just three months, he successfully transformed from a computer novice who knew nothing to one of the world's top hackers. Ouyang Qiyu thought to himself as his fingers flew across the keyboard, and when he had toyed with the top three American hacker alliance enough, he would casually sweep away his tail and leave, leaving behind a group of hackers in awe, this is what a true hacking master looks like.

  "Master, all the guests have arrived. The old master is calling for you to go to him. The banquet is about to begin." The young maid who was in charge of taking care of him called out.

  "Alright, go tell Grandpa that I'll be there soon." Ouyang Jueyu said helplessly. It was another banquet, and she was a person who liked quietness. She had originally wanted to ask them not to make such a big fuss, after all, it was just a birthday party. However, seeing her doting parents and grandfather's loving gazes, every time the words reached her lips, she couldn't bring herself to say them out loud. She really didn't want to hurt their loving hearts. It was just a birthday banquet, anyway. She could endure it for a little while longer.

  Ouyang Jueyu sighed and closed her laptop, slowly walking towards her grandfather's residence.

  Arriving at Grandfather's Flowing Clouds Residence, I found my parents and grandfather waiting for me, and my heart warmed up. Since the first time I reincarnated and started anew until now, there have been many relatives who have treated me well in these hundred lifetimes. However, knowing my identity, I've tightly controlled myself to avoid getting too close to them. Now that this is my last reincarnation, and I don't even recognize my original parents - after all, Master picked me up - having such good parents and elders should allow me to experience what's known as familial love.

  "Grandfather, Father, Mother, I'm here." Ou Yang Jue Yu said calmly.

  "Yu'er, come here to Mom." Li Rulan said gently, although Ouyang Jueyu usually behaves quite maturely, but no matter how mature he is, in front of his dad, mom and grandfather, he is just a three-year-old child.

  Ouyang Tiande looked at his little grandson with affection, holding hands with his son and daughter-in-law, and said with a smile, "Yu'er, let's go to the main hall, our guests are waiting."

  Ouyang Jiayu smiled and said, "Grandpa, then let's go."
