Thank you for everything.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Understanding that these were his parting words, Wu Lian patted Gao Shuwei's back and said in a choked voice, \"I will miss you, Cousin.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gao Shuwei released him and handed over a book. \"Please give this to Xiao Ran when everything is over. Also, I need one last favor from you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Lian took the book and asked, \"What is it?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gao Shuwei smiled as he said, \"I want you to hack the satellite and broadcast what I'm about to do worldwide.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When he heard this, Wu Lian's fingers tightened around the book as he stared at Gao Shuwei helplessly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a moment of silence, he tremblingly said, \"Cousin, you…\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gao Shuwei placed a reassuring hand on Wu Lian's shoulder and smiled. \"This world needs a villain. Since there is already a hero, then I will be the villain. Cousin, I'm leaving the rest to you. Please stay alive and live a good life on my behalf.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before Wu Lian could respond, Gao Shuwei snapped his fingers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Snap!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A second later, Wu Lian vanished.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Watching Gao Shuwei stand there in silence after Wu Lian disappeared, Yao Zi'ao said softly, \"Shuwei, you can still go back. Grandpa can handle this alone.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gao Shuwei shook his head, looking up at the gloomy sky and replied, \"No, Grandpa. Everything will only end when I complete my mission. This role as a villain… Only I can do it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After saying that, his expression turned cold. Turning around, he looked at Yao Zi'ao and said, \"Grandpa, let's begin.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yao Zi'ao sighed and took out a dagger hidden beneath the blanket covering his legs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before he could pull the dagger from its scabbard, Gao Shuwei took it away and said, \"Grandpa, let me do it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing the determination in his eyes, Yao Zi'ao released his grip on the dagger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gao Shuwei then took out a bottle of sleeping medicine and a bottle of water from his space and said, \"Grandpa, drink this. I don't want you to feel any pain.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yao Zi'ao looked at the sleeping medicine for a moment before reaching out to gently rub Gao Shuwei's head. Smiling, he said, \"Shuwei, Grandpa will wait for you on the other side.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing this, a hint of sadness flickered in Gao Shuwei's cold eyes. He nodded and replied, \"Alright.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With Gao Shuwei's help, Yao Zi'ao took the sleeping pill. After he fell into a deep sleep, Gao Shuwei held the dagger and slashed Yao Zi'ao's wrist.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Yao Zi'ao's blood dripped into his palm, Gao Shuwei's tears fell.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Clenching his blood-stained hand, he whispered, \"Grandpa, we won't meet again. You already know I'm not from this world. After I die, I will return to my own world. I know what you said just now was only to ease my guilt.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>While Gao Shuwei was absorbing Yao Zi'ao's blood, Wu Lian reappeared at The Origin's headquarters. Looking at the devastation around him, he clenched his fists and walked toward the barracks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On his way, he encountered the Xu family's bodyguards.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing him rushing toward the barrack, one of them said, \"Captain Wu, the barracks are gone. There is a massive sinkhole where they used to be.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing this, Wu Lian paused and turned to the bodyguard. \"Where are you headed?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"We are searching the area to check for any survivors,\" the bodyguard replied before adding, \"Captain Wu, you should hurry and board the spaceship.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Lian nodded. \"Understood. You go ahead. I still have something to do.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Pressed for time, the bodyguards nodded and hurried off to complete their mission. Once they left, Wu Lian made his way to his villa.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Finding his belongings untouched, he quickly turned on his laptop and hacked into the only remaining satellite in orbit. Once he successfully gained access, Wu Lian called Gao Shuwei.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As soon as the call connected, he said, \"Cousin, it's done. You can use your phone to start the broadcast.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing this, Gao Shuwei responded, \"Alright.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After covering Yao Zi'ao's body with the blanket, he said, \"Cousin, find somewhere safe. There might be a massive impact when I activate the Lingyuan Jade Pendant's power.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Lian clenched his phone tightly and replied, \"Don't worry about me. Just… do what you need to do.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sensing the reluctance in Wu Lian's voice, Gao Shuwei smiled. \"I know.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ending the call, he took out his phone and connected it to Wu Lian's laptop. After finding a suitable spot, he set up the device and activated the broadcast feature.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The moment he went live, all screens connected to the satellite darkened for a second before displaying his broadcast.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the main control room, Fu Zongshang and the others were taken aback when they saw Gao Shuwei's face appear on the monitors and the main screen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One of the staff members attempted to cut off the connection but failed. Looking at Fu Zongshang, he said, \"Commander Fu, the satellite has been hacked. I can't disconnect our main system from the hacker's program.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fu Zongshang's expression darkened when he heard that. After a moment of thought, he said, \"No need. I want to see what Gao Shuwei intends to do.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With the world watching him, Gao Shuwei calmly walked over to Yao Zi'ao.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Standing behind the lifeless body, he placed a hand on the wheelchair and said, \"People of The Origin, welcome to my broadcast. I'm sure all of you recognize who I'm with right now.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He paused for a second, then chuckled coldly. Staring at the screen, he continued, \"That's right. This is the famous Chairman Yao of the Yao family—Yao Zi'ao. Thanks to his sacrifice, I can now do what I want.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the villa area, Yao Ran's eyes widened in horror as she saw her grandfather on the screen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Noticing his pale lips, she immediately realized that he was gone. Clenching her fists tightly, she could only stare at the laptop screen with eyes filled with hatred.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Gao Shuwei… He really killed Grandfather… Why?\"\u003C\u002Fp>",1017,"2026-06-10T06:56:58.863Z",1,"novelbin.me","c4f2ad704c1fd783b4355fe9f13445a983cece09e4886057f57b3a853d0ab799","natural-disaster-i-started-by-hoarding-tens-of-b-chapter-400","natural-disaster-i-started-by-hoarding-tens-of-b-chapter-399",554,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fnatural-disaster-i-started-by-hoarding-tens-of-b-cover.jpg"]
