[320 theses bought and sold, and the highest one sold for 300 million US dollars.]
There was a long list of names under the headline.
First in line was Elisabeth Laurent.
It clearly stated that she had bought a thesis at a high price of 300 million US dollars and accused Ying Zijin of plagiarizing her.
There were specialized newspapers and periodicals in the academic world that published the progress of experimental projects.
This was the first time an entire newspaper was used to report on the sale of theses.
Elizabeth's face turned green and white.
She suddenly let out a scream and tore the newspaper into pieces.
"It's useless even if you tear it up." José looked at her hysterical face and said calmly, "This newspaper has been published in the academic world and on all the major websites. You've disgraced the Laurent family!"
He took out another document and handed it to her. "I was at Professor Irwin's laboratory yesterday. I just happened to bring you the removal document."
"Professor Irwin will hold you accountable because of your personal reasons. Just wait and see."
Elizabeth raised her head and her eyes were red. "Speak! Are you going to tell Master about this and ask him to punish me? "
José stopped when he heard this.
He turned around and smiled sarcastically. "Elizabeth, don't think too highly of yourself."
Elizabeth paused and her voice turned cold. "José, what do you mean?"
"Let's not talk about the fact that you're not the patriarch. Even if you were the patriarch, your matters would be insignificant to Master." José said coldly. "The elders have to wait a long time to see Master. Do you think you're worthy of me telling on you to Master?"
"Do you think Master will take time out to deal with you? I advise you not to disturb Master. Don't throw your life away. "
After he said this, he left without looking back.
Elizabeth was still standing there in a daze.
A few minutes later, she seemed to have thought of something and immediately went upstairs to turn on her computer.
As José said, there was indeed related news on the official website.
Those academic experts and professors might not look at other social media platforms, but they would definitely look at the information on these academic websites.
Elizabeth Laurent's name was indeed nailed to the pillar of shame and infamy in the academic world.
Elizabeth's body went limp.
Her path in scientific research was completely blocked by herself.
**
On the other side, in a hotel restaurant in J Nation.
Sinai was not used to the food on Continent O.
She took out the food compression bag and laid out the ten dishes inside.
When the dishes were taken out, they were hot. They looked, smelled, and smelled great.
Ying Zijin fell into deep thought.
She wasn't interested in other science and technology, but she was interested in learning how to preserve food.
She had been spoiled by Fu Yunshen and had always been a picky eater.
Sinai waved her small hand, "Go ahead and eat, don't be shy. I'll bring you to the World City and treat you to the best delicacies."
As she spoke, she became even more desolate. "If my sister-in-law hadn't fainted, I could have let you guys have a taste of her cooking."
Fu Yunshen looked up. "How did your sister-in-law fall unconscious?"
Sinai pursed her lips. "She suffered a mental blow. My sister-in-law thought that she had given birth to a stillborn baby. Coincidentally, my brother went missing at that time, so she lost the will to live and is still in a vegetative state."
Ying Zijin's hand paused. "She thought it was a stillborn baby?"
"Yes, but I'm sure it wasn't. My niece is definitely still alive." Sinai lowered her head. "But I've been looking for her for ten years and haven't found her. If I find her, she can definitely wake my sister-in-law up."
The Ryan family had found all kinds of hypnotists, doctors, alchemists, and so on, but they couldn't wake First Madam up.
The second hypnotist they found from Earth once said that this was a mental illness.
A mental illness needed to be cured.
If First Madam didn't want to wake up, no matter how strong an external force was, she couldn't wake up.
Ying Zijin pondered for a moment. "How about this? I can take a look at your sister-in-law."
Between finding someone and saving someone, she chose the latter.
After all, without any information, finding someone like this was tantamount to finding a needle in a haystack.
Sinai didn't have much hope, but she still nodded. "Okay."
"Ten years?" Fu Yunshen looked up. "How old are you?"
Sinai put her hands in her pockets and raised her chin. "I'm twenty-six. Older than you, right?"
"That's —" Fu Yunshen said lazily. "Not necessarily."
Ying Zijin narrowed her eyes. "So you've taken an alchemy drug?"
Sinai lowered her head and was silent for a moment. "Yes, so I can't return to my normal age and body. This alchemy drug has fixed my age and body shape."
Ying Zijin's eyes flickered.
She now knew where Earth's alchemy came from.
Clearly, Yi Jian's voice came from the World City.
Because the alchemy drug Sinai mentioned didn't exist in the alchemy world.
Apart from shrinking the body and rejuvenating the body, wouldn't this drug make people immortal?
Moreover, the explosion in the university town used an alchemy bomb that they had never seen before.
Ying Zijin thought for a moment. "Do the residents of the World City come to Earth often?"
"No, 99% of them don't come." Sinai shrugged. "The science you're developing now is something we've already experienced."
"Compared to the World City, you're too far behind. Is it like the primitive societies you went to?"
"But you reminded me. There are people who chose to give up their life in the World City to go to Earth." She said. "I've heard of someone."
Ying Zijin looked up. "Who?"
"I don't know if you know this person." Sinai rubbed her chin. "Because this is something from a few centuries ago, I haven't specifically looked into his information."
After a pause, she said, "This person is called Simon Grande."
Ying Zijin's eyes changed. "Who are you talking about?"
"Simon Grande." Sinai repeated. "He's also a very famous scientist in the World City, but he later requested to go outside, which is Earth. The Sage Institute had no choice but to let him go."
"The Sage Institute erased all his memories related to the World City and forbade him from taking half a step into the World City. “
Ying Zijin whispered. "No wonder."
No wonder Simon Grande was able to draw a series of advanced blueprints such as spaceships in the 17th century.
Because he was a resident of the World City.
In the 17th century on Earth, there were still more than a hundred years before the Industrial Revolution began. There were no steam engines.
But the World City already had the technology to land on the moon.
Far ahead.
"The World City is actually the same as the ancient martial arts world. It's also on Earth." Sinai held her chin. "But we're used to calling you Earth. I'm not an alien. They're too ugly."
Ying Zijin nodded slightly. "I know."
"Sigh, I was so happy yesterday that I forgot. I have a photo of the head of the Yu family." Sinai turned her watch. "Let me show you. Don't get it wrong."
After the button on the watch was pressed, a 3D hologram was projected.
Sinai tapped in the air again, and the figure started to rotate.
It ensured that Ying Zijin and Fu Yunshen could see the figure from all angles.
The man was wearing a knight's outfit and holding a ruby sword.
His eyes were sharp and he was in high spirits.
The aura that exuded from his whole body was obviously something that could only be possessed by someone who had been in a high position for a long time.
There were also words hanging in the air below.
[Shao Yun · Yu.]
"Hey." Sinai glanced at Fu Yunshen. "I suddenly realize that you're a little similar to him!"
Fu Yunshen did not say anything.
He looked at the two words "Shao Yun", and his light amber eyes gradually deepened.
So that was it.
Fu Liuying gave him this name not only because it meant "the sunlight in the abyss."
It was also because she missed her true love.
Now, he could be completely sure.
The head of the Yu family was his biological father.
"Alright." Fu Yunshen said calmly, "I've confirmed that it's him."
"Then you'll have to work hard. It's not easy to get revenge on him." Sinai retracted the figure projection and thought for a moment. "Speaking of which, there's also a scandal about him."
"More than 20 years ago, I heard that his woman betrayed him and caused him to be besieged. He was seriously injured and was on the verge of death. It was the people from the Sage Courtyard who personally stepped in to save him."
"I don't know where that woman went after that. I only heard it from the elders in the family. I think she's probably dead."
This kind of thing was no different from a scandal for the Yu family.
The Ryan family had only heard about it, but they did not know the specific truth of the matter.
Not to mention the other residents of the World City.
Ying Zijin's eyes narrowed. "It's Auntie?"
The timelines all matched up.
Fu Yunshen's eyebrows moved slightly. "In their eyes, yes."
He knew very well what kind of person Fu Liuying was.
It was impossible for her to betray him.
"There might be more to this matter." Ying Zijin frowned. "We need to investigate it first."
Fu Yunshen just smiled and did not say anything.
"Oh, right." Sinai patted her head. "Although you definitely don't have the ability to get revenge on him, the people from the Sage Courtyard can."
"They all have special abilities. The people from our two families are just ordinary people in front of them. They can destroy the entire Yu family with a wave of their hand."
But how could the people from the Sage Courtyard be so easy to get to know?
Moreover, how could the Sage Courtyard depose the head of the Yu family for a resident from Earth?
Sinai was just saying it casually and did not expect anything.

The World City.
The development of human civilization had reached the highlands.
The Yu family.
Although the man was close to 50 years old, his face was still very young.
His aura was imposing and calm like a god.
Shao Yun Yu, the current head of the Yu family.
"Head." The butler was very respectful. "The Old Madam invites you over."
Shao Yun followed the butler over.
On the open-air balcony, Old Madam Yu twirled the prayer beads in her hand and said calmly, "I heard that you went to Earth a few months ago, and to Hua City? You still want to go now? "
Shao Yun's hand paused. "Yes."
"As expected." Old Madam Yu closed her eyes and said in a cold voice, "It's been more than 20 years. I thought that you had willingly accepted the marriage alliance between the families and gave birth to a descendant, and that you had forgotten about the past. In the end, you still remember it clearly."
Shao Yun's fingers clenched and the veins popped. He said word by word, "She gave birth to a child for me."
If he had known that Fu Liuying was pregnant at that time, no matter what happened, he would not have let her leave.
Old Madam Yu's hand that was holding the prayer beads suddenly tightened. She laughed coldly. "A child made your heart soften? How many women are lining up to give birth to a child for you? Do you care about this one? "
"Moreover, don't forget that you already have a son. Where do you put him?"
Shao Yun's lips were tightly pursed, and his jaw was also tense.
Old Madam Yu said coldly, "She betrayed you and almost caused you to lose your life. I didn't kill her and chase her out of the World City. That's already merciful of me."
If she had known that Fu Liuying came from Hua City and was not a local resident of the World City, she would not have let Shao Yun come into contact with her no matter what.
Shao Yun did not comment, but he did not change his words. "I must bring my son back."
Old Madam Yu was furious.
Shao Yun stood up. "I'll leave first."
"Okay, I promise you." Old Madam Yu's eyes were like torches as she said calmly, "You can bring him to the World City, and you can also bring him into the Yu family, but I have a few requests."
Shao Yun was a little surprised.
Old Madam Yu had always been stubborn, and she disliked outsiders very much.
In the eyes of the local residents of the World City, even the international talents that the Sage Courtyard personally recruited could not compare to them.
Outsiders were inferior people, and their bloodlines were not proper.
Shao Yun's expression also eased a little. "Please speak."
"He can't enter the family tree, and he can't have the surname Yu." Old Madam Yu closed her eyes. "You can announce his existence to the outside world, but he must say that he is an illegitimate son."
"His status, no matter what, cannot surpass your son. He can only be a third-class citizen of the World City."
