The directness made Hui Huang speechless.
He quickly typed a reply.
“Sir, our web novels are strictly screened. Generally, it is impossible for any plagiarism. But, sometimes, there could be some that did not get caught.”
“So, can please give me the book number of the plagiarized book?”
“There’s no need to provide the book number, can’t you see my name?”
“The number one book on your New Novels List named “Battle Through the Heavens”, was originally written by me. Who knew that when I was just about to publish the book, I found a copy of the book that was exactly the same as mine, and you say you aren’t plagiarizing?”
After reading this, Hui Huang couldn’t help but sneer, “There are some things that you can’t just claim without proof.”
“We checked this book countless times with our anti-plagiarizing software, there’s no way it’s copied.”
“Plus, even if what you said is real, he still published the book before you, how can you prove that he is copying you, and not that you are copying him?”
“He is having high hopes for this book.”
“Of course, I will pay more attention to see whether this book has violated any rules.”
Hui Huang already checked the book many times and he never found any problems.
So Hui Huang felt that this person was just trying to cause trouble.
But even after his message was sent, the person still was very insistent.
“If you want proof, that’s very simple. I have an outline here of the following plot. I can send it to you if you want.”
As they were messaging, the person sent Hui Huang a few files.
Hui Huang clicked receive.
These documents had been prepared a long time ago.
There were several documents inside.
Hui Huang opened one of the documents.
Suddenly, countless lines of texts appeared in front of him.
“So this is the upcoming plot?” Hui Huang frowned.
Although it was difficult to say that the book was plagiarized, he felt like he had to pay more attention now that even the future plot was sent.
The plot that the other person sent was exactly the chapter that Hao Tian hasn’t posted yet.
The more Hui Huang looked into it, the more shocked he got.
This… can’t be!
And coincidentally, after receiving the file Qin Tian sent for about ten minutes, the author Hao Tian updated.
Every word was exactly the same.
Hui Huang was completely dumbfounded.
“My god, is what he sent really the future plot?!”
“Seeing the two identical chapters, Hui Huang quickly sent a message to ‘Hao Tian is a Plagiarizer’.
“Sorry sir, this is a very important matter. I need to discuss it with the people in charge before giving you a reply.”
“But rest assured, our website severely punishes plagiarizers. If the author is truly plagiarizing , we will definitely deal with it seriously.”
“Okay, I will wait for your reply.”
Qin Tian closed his laptop, then stretched and yawned.
In one night, he copied the next 20,000 words and picked up the outline of the next 10,000 words.
Although his current physique was more than twice that of a normal person.
But in order to maintain sufficient energy, he still needed to rest.
So he sent Mu Die a “sleeping, do not disturb” message, then directly went to sleep.
He didn’t even know when Gu Qingcheng left.
As Qin Tian was sleeping, in the headquarters of Wuxia Wonder.
The editors were mind-blown.
Originally, if a book was plagiarized, they just needed to delete the book.
But, this book had very high potential, so it aroused discussion among the editors in charge.
“There is no reason to hesitate. The other person has already posted the plot and outline, the book must be plagiarized!”
“Yes, although we don’t know where it is copied from, it must be deleted!”
“We can’t let this one slide. No matter the potential, if it is really plagiarized, others can sue us and we will lose for sure.”
Everyone expressed their opinions one after another.
Since this incident was very unique, the news soon landed in the boss’s ears.
After a lot of discussions, Wuxia Wonder’s boss made up his mind.
“Let’s check again to make sure he is plagiarizing, and if he really is, we will ban his account.”
“No problem, boss.”
After getting the boss’ directions, Hui Huang nodded his head then sent Hao Tian a message.
“Hello, are you there?”
“Yes!”
“We got a report today saying that your book “Battle Through the Heavens” is plagiarized, and he showed us proof that you were plagiarizing. Do you have any proof that this novel is original?”
“What???”
After hearing this, Wang Hao, who was eating ramen at the moment, was completely dumbfounded.
Someone reported that I’m plagiarizing?
How is this possible?
Before “writing” this book, Wang Hao had already searched the entire Internet countless times but had never even seen a copy of the book.
That was the only reason he wrote without the slightest worry.
But right now… he was still waiting to use this book to grow rich!
And now someone reported me plagiarizing? And even has evidence?
How can I prove myself innocent?
And where did they get evidence in the first place?
He quickly sent a message, “What files did you guys receive?”
Because he indeed copied the book, he wasn’t confident when asking that.
“The rest 20,000 words of plot, and 10,000 words of outline.”
“Both the plot and the outline???”
Wang Hao was dumbfounded again.
If the person that reported him really had his book’s plot and outline, he couldn’t prove that he wasn’t plagiarizing. The only thing he could do was to change the plot and outline.
But by doing this, the book would change entirely.
And if the book changed, would it still grow popular?
Obviously not possible.
Because Wang Hao knew what his writing capabilities were.
He couldn’t make up anything even close to as exciting as the book currently was.
“Fuck, how did this happen?”
Wang Hao clenched his fists.
“Since you can’t prove that you’re really writing the book, I’ll have to ban your book.”
Not seeing a reply, Hui Huang continued typing, “By the time you can prove yourself innocent, come find me to un-ban your book.”
“Okay! Thanks.”
These were the only words Wang Hao could say.
[Ding. Successfully destroying protagonist Wang Hao’s plan to copy novels. Obtained 500 Villain Points. Seized 100 Luck Points.]
5 PM. When Qin Tian just woke up, he saw a system message.
After spending one night and 100 Villain Points, he got 500 Villain Points in return.
That was 400 in profit!
Although it wasn’t too good of a deal, it wasn’t bad either.
But, Qin Tian noticed a small detail. The system prompt showed that he “seized” the Luck Points instead of “obtained”.
So this time, he was no longer acting in self-defense, but as an attacker.
Interesting.
It was just a thought, and Qin Tian didn’t pay any more attention to that.
He was here to eliminate the protagonist, not to start a charity.
Whether it was obtaining or seizing, he just needed to get those points.
He woke up and ate breakfast.
Old Feng had already prepared food for Qin Tian and was waiting for him to wake up.
Qin Tian ate a little and checked his phone.
He got a bunch of messages.
The first one was from Su Yanran.
“Thank you Uncle Qin for the birthday gift. I loved it!”
Qin Tian replied, “I’m glad that you liked it!”
The second was from Deng Yuqing.
“Darling, you told me to tell you all of my upcoming plans. Next month, I’m going to attend a classmate’s wedding. Do you want to come with me?”
“Tell me the precise time, I’ll ask Xiao Die to arrange it.”
“Okay!”
Deng Yuqing immediately replied with excitement.
Qin Tian will come with me to my classmate’s wedding? What a glorious event this will be!
At the wedding, she would definitely receive many eyes of envy.
The third one was Mu Die.
“Mr. Qin, after you wake up, there’s a call you’ll have to pick up. It’s a person who claimed himself to be Ye Family’s butler, and he wants to see you.”
Ye Family’s butler?
Qin Tian raised his eyebrows. Ye Family’s actions are quite fast!
“There’s no need to call them, just follow the procedures and tell him to make an appointment.”
“Huh?” Mu Die was stunned, “But… but Mr. Qin, he’s a member of the Ye Family from Shanghai!”
“So what? Even if he’s a descendant of god, the procedure still applies.”
“Then should I move Ye Family’s appointment forward?”
“Nope!”
