Lei Haoxuan's plea for mercy moved everyone present.
The people from Wuhu Group didn't find Lei Haoxuan's subservient posture shameful; instead, they envied his chance to beg for mercy.
This was because they themselves were not even considered by Ling Feng.
Now, they could only await the judgment of fate!
If they could beg for mercy like Lei Haoxuan, it might even hasten their demise.
Before Ling Feng could speak, Lei Qianjun suddenly roared, "Unworthy descendant, you scoundrel, you idiot, cough, cough, cough..."
Lei Qianjun was so enraged that he couldn't finish his sentence, coughing out a mouthful of blood, followed by even more violent coughing.
Ling Feng waved his hand casually at Yang Fei, "Take away all the irrelevant people and punish them according to the law!"
"Yes!"
Yang Fei responded, and a group of soldiers surged forward, escorting those who felt like they had received a great pardon.
Punished according to the law?
Such an outcome was too good for them.
At least, they wouldn't be executed on the spot by Ling Feng!
Lei Qianjun watched helplessly as the Wuhu Group disintegrated in this manner, and Lei Haoxuan, the sole descendant of the Lei family, appeared so pathetic. He felt a wave of despair.
He couldn't help but let out a bitter laugh.
"Haha, good! Good!"
He suddenly threw his head back and roared at the sky, "Father, you were right! I am not fit to control the Wuhu Group! I am not fit to be the head of the Lei family. Haha, it all ends up ruined in my hands! Completely ruined!"
As he laughed, Lei Qianjun began to cry.
Lei Haoxuan was stunned by the scene before him.
The Lei family was finished!
The Wuhu Group was finished!
At this moment, he truly understood what all of this meant.
Lei Qianjun, who had been arrogant his entire life and reached a level of glory admired by millions, had finally met his end.
More tragically, the scenes of him leaving home years ago flashed before his eyes. No matter how conceited Lei Qianjun was, he had established the Qianjun Group, which was even more powerful than the Wuhu Group!
However, all of this was ultimately useless!
His powerful return had not saved the Wuhu Group, and it had instead dragged the entire Lei family down to ruin!
The current Lei Qianjun was merely a twilight old man. His arrogant declaration of "returning as a youth" had already become a joke.
He, Lei Qianjun, had lived his life to the fullest!
Ling Feng watched Lei Qianjun's downfall with a cold expression, his face unmoved, as if he had long been accustomed to such scenes.
Yang Fei sneered and muttered to himself, "If you knew this would happen, why did you do it in the first place!"
After his frenzied tears, Lei Qianjun's bloodshot eyes locked onto Ling Feng, and he said with deep unwillingness, "Who exactly are you? Even if I die, please let me, Lei Qianjun, die with understanding!"
Please!
The word "please" displayed Lei Qianjun's last shred of dignity and the magnanimity accumulated throughout his life.
Ling Feng, respecting this "please," walked up to Lei Qianjun and casually tossed a token.
The token fell at Lei Qianjun's feet.
Lei Qianjun's old eyes widened abruptly as he saw the inscription on one side of the token: "Execute first, report later."
Lei Qianjun's hands began to tremble. He shakily picked up the token and then flipped it over.
"Zhen... Bei! Heavenly King!"
The words tumbled out of Lei Qianjun's mouth, and then his entire life flashed before his eyes like a movie!
So young!
Unparalleled martial arts skills!
Commanding the generals of the war zone, armed fighter jets, with absolute obedience!
These were incredible feats for ordinary people, but for the Heavenly King of Zhenbei, they were entirely different!
"Heh heh... haha! So that's how it is. So it's the Heavenly King of Zhenbei himself. This old man truly was blind! I, I truly deserve to die, deserve to die!"
Clang!
The token fell from Lei Qianjun's hand to the ground with a crisp sound.
It was the final toll of Lei Qianjun's death knell!
He stood up and walked step by step to the edge of the broken floor. Suddenly, a gust of night wind blew, as if it had carried away all the warmth from Lei Qianjun's body.
Lei Qianjun's eyes were filled with despair, and a self-mocking smile played on his lips!
He had never imagined that he would confront the Heavenly King of Zhenbei. He hadn't even considered why Ling Feng was fighting the Wuhu Group!
Was it merely for a deceased elder brother?
How could an ordinary person fight to the death with the Wuhu Group for a deceased elder brother?
That was the Heavenly King of Zhenbei's own elder brother!
"Heh heh, the Heavenly King of Zhenbei's own elder brother. This life, which has buried the entire Lei family and the entire Wuhu Group! Haha, it was worth it!"
Lei Qianjun closed his eyes, leaned forward, and like a tattered sack, drifted down towards the ground.
"Second Grandfather!"
Only now did Lei Haoxuan snap back to reality, crying out mournfully.
But the hand he extended could no longer reach out to pull Lei Qianjun back.
Lei Qianjun's lifelong honor and glory had completely vanished into the cold wind.
Yang Fei picked up the token from the ground.
Ling Feng's identity was so noble that it was never easily revealed. Lei Qianjun had exchanged his life for the truth, and it could be considered a death with meaning.
"Heavenly Venerate!"
Yang Fei respectfully returned the token to Ling Feng.
Ling Feng put the token away. Lei Haoxuan, who had witnessed this scene, widened his bloodshot eyes and stared intently at the token!
"Execute first, report later, Heavenly King of Zhenbei... you really are the Heavenly King of Zhenbei..."
Lei Haoxuan stammered, his eyes filled with boundless fear, and he stumbled backward.
At this moment, he felt as if a mountain was pressing down on his shoulders, suffocating him.
Fear, bit by bit, devoured his soul.
Ling Feng did not answer him, merely casting a casual glance at him.
Lei Haoxuan immediately felt as if struck by lightning, his body trembling. Then, a trace of green overflowed from the corner of his mouth.
It was bile, seeping from his mouth after his gall bladder had shattered!
Then, he collapsed to the ground with a thud!
"Hmph, as expected, a useless wretch. Upon learning of the Heavenly Venerate's identity, he actually died of fright!"
Yang Fei spat at Lei Haoxuan, his words filled with disdain.
"You... you are the Heavenly King of Zhenbei?"
Suddenly, Tang Zhao, who was filled with shock, exclaimed, his eyes filled with disbelief and immense joy.
Li Shan, even more so, knelt to the ground with a thud, shouting, "Heavenly King of Zhenbei, your humble servant Li Shan, pays respects to the Heavenly King of Zhenbei!"
Li Shan, with only half his life remaining, kowtowed repeatedly to Ling Feng, as if revering a deity.
"Pays respects to the Heavenly King of Zhenbei!"
The remaining three general managers of Lingtian Group also knelt down excitedly, shouting hoarsely.
To be a subordinate of the Heavenly King of Zhenbei was undoubtedly an honor for them!
The highest of honors!
An eternal and unyielding glory!
