"The higher-ups of the Capital's All-People Martial Arts Hall are now undergoing new audits. Furthermore, it would be best if you yourselves confess to the unspeakable things you've done in the past. This is my last act of mercy towards you. Otherwise, once I have people investigate and uncover them, you will face the consequences yourselves!"
Ling Feng calmly left after delivering his words, flicking his sleeves.
Everyone remained prostrate on the ground, not daring to lift their heads even a fraction. They truly felt immense pressure from this situation.
It was only after Ling Feng had been gone for two minutes that someone, breathing heavily, managed to stand up from the ground.
However, before they could fully relax, a group of experts rushed in, ordering everyone to cooperate with the investigation.
At this moment, for many, their nightmare had truly begun.
"Big Brother, you were too merciful to them this time. The Bai family is truly going too far. I've heard some of the things they've done, and many of them deserve to die!"
Lin Shuai Nan, while driving Ling Feng, couldn't help but mutter incessantly.
Ling Feng closed his eyes slightly, adopting a posture of resting his mind. He then spoke to Lin Shuai Nan, "The situation is different now. If the Bai family truly harbors ambitions of rebellion, they won't last twenty years before they make some move. Instead of striking them down at this juncture, it's better to let them expose their weaknesses themselves later. That way, there will be absolute justification to round them all up!"
Lin Shuai Nan paused, nodding subconsciously as if he understood Ling Feng's words. However, he soon shook his head, appearing to understand but also not quite.
"Big Brother, why do I feel like this doesn't need to be so troublesome for you? Those scoundrels don't need to..."
"Things are about to get chaotic. There will be quite a few traitors and collaborators appearing soon, just you wait! We need to make an example of some, but not now."
Ling Feng suddenly interrupted Lin Shuai Nan.
Lin Shuai Nan was utterly bewildered. After a long pause, he cautiously asked Ling Feng, "Big Brother, what do you mean by that? Why would things suddenly get chaotic? Could the United States be making some move?"
Ling Feng slightly opened his eyes. He had never considered Lin Shuai Nan a fool, only that his behavior was rather peculiar. The guy's mind was quite sharp, and with just a slight hint, Lin Shuai Nan had indeed guessed some things.
"Yes. If I'm not mistaken, the United States dares to let the Liu Group respond so arrogantly to the world, which means the Liu Group's trump card is about to be revealed. They are too confident. Perhaps a product will emerge, a world-changing product!"
Ling Feng spoke word by word.
Lin Shuai Nan gasped in disbelief and shook his head, "How is such a thing possible? A world-changing product? That seems like something that could only be born within our Jishi Group. That kid Zhou Jin..."
Before Lin Shuai Nan could finish his sentence, he abruptly fell silent, then vigorously shook his head, "It seems we were too arrogant and careless!"
Ling Feng shook his head, ignoring Lin Shuai Nan's mumbled words.
However, Ling Feng was very certain of his own thoughts. Everything that was happening now made Ling Feng realize one thing: the tide had turned, completely turned!
There were always signs before a storm, and Ling Feng had anticipated them. But he still had no countermeasures, because only when the storm truly arrived could he know what would happen and how to deal with it!
The Capital's All-People Martial Arts Hall underwent a major overhaul.
This was a monumental event for everyone in the Capital's safety zone. The news was incredibly explosive!
But for the Bai family and many other prominent families, it marked the beginning of their disaster. Many wrongful cases from the past three years were unearthed and quickly overturned for reinvestigation!
The Capital had descended into chaos. The situation Ling Feng had predicted had indeed materialized. Some wealthy and influential individuals, unable to withstand the pressure or the consequences of punishment, fled in large numbers, leading to numerous violent incidents.
However, in the end, these individuals met grim fates.
In just one afternoon, all those found guilty were incarcerated. Suddenly, the so-called upper-class society in the Capital felt a sense of impending doom. The entire landscape had changed. There had been signals before, such as the movements from the war zone. But the preceding few days had been too quiet, leading many to believe that nothing was going to happen.
Therefore, caught off guard by their complacency, everything came crashing down.
Like a tempest, it swept through the entire Capital in an instant!
As night fell.
Ling Feng sat cross-legged on the rooftop of his villa, a large screen in front of him displaying various news reports.
Lin Si Qi and a few others accompanied him.
They all sensed Ling Feng's somber mood and dared not speak much. As time passed, they began to notice something amiss.
Ling Feng seemed to be waiting for something.
Finally, Ji Yun Yue, unable to suppress her concern, asked Ling Feng with worry, "Ling Feng, what exactly are you waiting for?"
"Waiting for the storm!"
To everyone's surprise, Ling Feng did not appear agitated or impatient. He simply replied calmly, even with a hint of finality.
"The storm? The weather forecast didn't say it was going to rain today!"
Tang Ru, still somewhat dazed, looked up at the sky. The night was clear and starry, with no signs of changing weather. In fact, it felt like tomorrow would be a perfectly sunny day.
Lin Si Qi, however, intercepted Tang Ru's action and said in a deep voice, "What Ling Feng is talking about is not the weather!"
"It's here!"
Before everyone could comprehend what Ling Feng meant, he abruptly uttered two words. The news on the screen also reported the same.
Everyone held their breath, their eyes fixed on the news content.
Soon, their expressions completely changed. Initial surprise turned into horror, and finally, their bodies began to tremble, their emotions growing more agitated by the second!
Ling Feng's expression, on the other hand, shifted from initial indifference to calmness, and finally to utter disdain!
"Ling Feng, is what the Liu Group is saying true? That it can enhance human physique by thirty percent? That's not just a thirty percent increase in combat power." Ji Yun Yue's face was icy as she said to Ling Feng in a deep voice.
Ling Feng nodded. "It should be true. The fact that they dared to announce it means they have already started using it in the US military!"
"Ah?! If that's true, then it's terrible. Our Jishi Group can't even develop such a product. How did the Liu Group manage to develop it?"
Tang Ru was also shocked, a worried expression appearing on her face. They all understood the gravity of the situation!
