"Ah!"
The fellow preparing to break through the window couldn't bear the immense psychological pressure and let out a frantic scream as he fled!
*Whoosh!*
A sound of air being cut followed. Lin Shuai Nan's movements were even faster, and he raised a single finger.
In just an instant, that finger, like a sharp sword, pierced through the back of the fleeing man's head!
The man's body instantly stiffened by the window. The window, so close, became an insurmountable path to survival.
He was dead!
With his eyes wide open in disbelief, the man fell backward, unwilling to accept his fate!
Of the original four brothers, two were killed by Lin Shuai Nan in just a few minutes.
The remaining two watched the scene before them, so terrified they nearly clung to each other, seeking a sliver of security.
*Sizzle...*
Abruptly, a sound emerged from Lin Shuai Nan's finger.
It was not a quiet sound; everyone in the room could hear it.
Thus, everyone turned their heads to look.
Then, they witnessed a bizarre and astonishing sight.
The man who had been killed by Lin Shuai Nan's single finger had, in a short period, turned into a dried corpse!
Everyone gasped in horror, drawing in sharp breaths.
Especially the white-haired butler, who, remembering the way Lin Shuai Nan had looked at him earlier, was utterly terrified.
Ling Feng, however, remained composed. He was the only one who knew the truth of it all.
The Myriad Gu Golden Toad within Lin Shuai Nan's body had likely not fully fallen into slumber.
Therefore, it was the gluttonous Myriad Gu Golden Toad that had siphoned away the man's last vestiges of life force.
While this might seem terrifying to others, to Ling Feng, it was a common occurrence. The incredibly potent Myriad Gu Golden Toad was merely employing a minor trick.
Moreover, this person was no expert; to the Myriad Gu Golden Toad, he was merely a small snack.
"Heh heh, don't look at me like that. It wasn't me. This guy... hehe, it saves on cremation time now. When he goes into the incinerator, he'll just turn into ashes. It's a good thing, really!"
Lin Shuai Nan retracted his finger, feeling a little awkward.
The event was somewhat bizarre, even bordering on perverse in Lin Shuai Nan's opinion.
However, Lin Shuai Nan was clearly adapting to it.
"No, don't kill me!"
"I don't want to die! I don't want the gold bars anymore. All of this was Zhao Shijun... no, it was Zhao Shijun and this butler. They were fighting each other, and it had nothing to do with us!"
The two men beside them shouted and begged for mercy.
At this moment, they realized that even a thousand pieces of gold couldn't buy back their lives.
Ling Feng looked at them indifferently, then gave Jin Gang a look.
Jin Gang instantly appeared behind the white-haired butler and grabbed his shoulder.
"Ah! Don't kill me..."
"Shut up."
The white-haired butler cried out reflexively, but Jin Gang's stern reprimand startled him into silence as he turned.
Turning, Jin Gang dragged the white-haired butler to the side.
He was like a little chick.
Lin Shuai Nan waved his finger at the other two: "Shh, you two, stop making noise. Be quiet. If we're in a good mood, we don't kill people randomly."
The two men immediately nodded vigorously.
Being allowed to live was their greatest wish at that moment.
As the two men also meekly curled up by Jin Gang's side, the surroundings finally fell completely silent.
Ling Feng waved his hand at Lin Shuai Nan and said, "Confiscate all of this guy's assets. You're responsible for interrogating him! Also, make him confess his crimes. If he conceals anything, kill him on the spot!"
"Alright, no problem, ha ha! Big brother, these are my specialties!"
Lin Shuai Nan shouted and darted to the white-haired butler's side.
Before Lin Shuai Nan could speak, the white-haired butler nodded like a pounding garlic: "Yes, yes, I'll confess, I'll confess everything! I beg you, sir, give me a chance, and I'll be lenient if I confess!"
"Less nonsense, and keep the noise down, don't disturb my big brother!"
Lin Shuai Nan grabbed the white-haired butler by the ear and moved him aside. As for the remaining two guys.
Lin Shuai Nan merely glanced at them. Seeing them trembling and huddled together, he sneered disdainfully.
Even Lin Shuai Nan looked down on them.
That's right, it was because they had no money.
To put it bluntly, they were just poor laborers.
Times had changed, and these poor laborers actually wanted to cause trouble here, betraying their employers and engaging in kidnapping and extortion.
Their actions alone were deserving of death.
Besides, Ling Feng had never said he intended to kill them from the start, but they were simply too guilty.
They didn't need to be so terrified, but they had committed too many morally reprehensible acts that they couldn't help but feel guilty.
"Heavenly Venerable, news has come from Titan. The remaining members of the Zhao family have been dealt with. However, the Zhao family's assets are indeed quite vast, and their network of connections is very complex. It seems someone has emerged to try and mediate. Zhao Shijun seems to have also received the news!"
Jin Tong walked up and bowed to Ling Feng to report.
Of course, these words were transmitted telepathically; this was classified information that ordinary people would not have the opportunity to hear.
Upon hearing this, Ling Feng's eyes narrowed slightly: "You mean, someone among those who acted today leaked the information?"
"This... it's possible." Jin Tong's voice held a hint of hesitation. He could tell that Ling Feng seemed to be getting angry!
"Who is trying to protect them?"
Ling Feng continued to press coldly.
Since they were hindering Titan's actions, it meant that this person's identity was not simple at all.
Furthermore, since the commotion had already erupted, the other party likely knew who was orchestrating this.
Knowing that Ling Feng had arranged everything and still dared to show up and stir up trouble, Ling Feng was truly curious about this person's identity.
"This, it's said to be many people. The president of the Kyoto Chamber of Commerce, and chambers of commerce from safety zones across the country have shown themselves. They control almost sixty percent of China's economic lifeline!"
Jin Tong spoke these words with trepidation, as he was not familiar with the situation and had no understanding of how it was all unfolding.
However, Jin Tong was not blind; he could see these figures.
With sixty percent of the nation's economic lifeline in their hands, if these individuals decided to cause trouble, it was possible that millions, even tens of millions, of people could lose their jobs overnight.
If it fermented for a while, perhaps hundreds of millions of people could be affected.
The combined power of these individuals was truly immense.
"Heh heh, interesting. A group of businessmen have quite a bit of nerve. I thought it was just someone from the military showing up, but I didn't expect these guys to appear!" Ling Feng laughed in anger.
A group of businessmen, thinking they could control everything just by doing a little business?
And even daring to challenge the might of the God of War Ling Tian?
Who on earth gave them the courage?
Was it Liang Jingru?
At this moment, Lin Shuai Nan shivered all over. Why had the temperature in the room suddenly dropped so much?
