"I refuse to accept it!!"
Lin Yufei endured the excruciating pain, her face covered in dense blue veins due to her tense muscles. Yet, despite this, she managed to squeeze out a few words through clenched teeth.
These words were her way of venting her emotions, while also reminding herself—
Having tasted all the bitterness, the sweetness has not yet co!
If she couldn’t persevere, all her past efforts, all the struggles she endured through hardships, would be in vain.
So ti passed, nobody knew how long.
Lin Yufei suddenly opened her eyes and sat up from the ground.
"You’re awake?"
Not far away, Skinny Ghost’s voice, tinged with joy, ca through: "Congratulations, you survived. Rest for a while, have sothing to eat, and see if you’ve awakened any superpowers."
Lin Yufei nodded dumbfoundedly.
Her body instinctively told her that she successfully awakened a superpower, and it seed... quite useful.
She extended her hand.
When her fingertips reached a certain point, it was as if they suddenly traveled through space, appearing in front of Skinny Ghost, landing on the bread in his hand.
First, it was her fingertips, then her fingers, and then her entire right hand, as if severed at the wrist. The arm was still attached to Lin Yufei’s body, yet the hand crossed space, appearing before Skinny Ghost, gently grabbing the bread in his hand.
Then she retrieved it.
"Is this what it feels like to use a superpower?"
Looking at the bread in her hand, and then at her own hand, Lin Yufei’s face lit up with joy, satisfaction, and a genuine sense of relief.
It was like she had been carrying a burden for so long, and now she suddenly released it.
She felt like she finally had the chance to control her own destiny, at least more so than before.
"Indeed, choosing the wrong path ans all efforts are wasted, it’s better to give it all for this."
The thought erged in Lin Yufei’s mind.
At this mont, Skinny Ghost also snapped out of his surprise and solemnly reminded her:
"Don’t get too excited just yet. Always keep an eye on your body; after all, we don’t know what side effects this serum might have."
"If the serum was really that perfect, Kangbo Biological Company would have mass-produced it long ago."
Hearing this, Lin Yufei felt a chill in her heart.
But she had no regrets.
There wasn’t much in her life worth lingering over, and she could accept any side effects. Even if it ant trading decades of life for one or two extraordinary years, she felt it was worth it.
Struggling in a filthy mire for a hundred years couldn’t compare to soaring freely in the sky for one year.
...
Yonghui Financial Group had its managent nearly paralyzed after Su Xin wiped out over twenty top executives.
The key now was figuring out how to quickly deal with Su Xin and manage his demands.
For this, the board had to swiftly reselect a new team of executives from the current managent to replace Yang Renrui and others.
The iron fort remains, while soldiers co and go.
In a large financial conglorate, from regular employees to the CEO level, even the board, and shareholders with varying stock portions, there’s no one irreplaceable.
One dies, another takes their place.
A whole group dies, and they’re replaced by another.
Even if the entire conglorate was wiped clean, myriad dispersed shareholders behind it could reassemble elsewhere, forming a new giant.
The essence of a conglorate lies not in its people but in the countless capital behind it.
Su Xin only killed people; the capital rely shifted from one place to another, essentially undestroyed.
A conglorate is like a giant.
Capital forms the cells of that giant.
Thus, a conglorate seems like it possesses an undying body. No matter how it’s battered, its cells and flesh regenerate swiftly. Even after being shattered to pieces, it can rise from the ashes.
At most, it incurs a huge energy drain.
Or nests within other giants.
Or coalesces into a new giant.
Or births a new will within the original body.
Right now, since Su Xin wiped out Yonghui Financial Group’s more than twenty executives, the board imdiately promoted new ones, effectively reshaping this giant’s brain and will.
In a study of a luxurious villa.
Deng Zhongquan, urgently promoted as Yonghui Financial Group’s new CEO, was holding an ergency video eting with several other executives.
In a conglorate wealthy beyond many countries, those qualifying as executives were far more than the twenty or so killed by Su Xin.
Those hastily promoted were previously presidents of crucial parts of the company, principals of important subsidiaries, or heads of projects directly overseen by headquarters.
They also qualified as Yonghui Financial Group executives, only slightly below the likes of Yang Renrui by half a rank. So, like Deng Zhongquan, were of similar rank to those killed.
It suffices to say the fact that Deng Zhongquan survived was purely because Su Xin targeted headquarters offices by location, entirely random.
Currently, Yang Renrui and several others are dead, as well as nearly twenty other senior executives from the headquarters; these people have all been promoted by half a level.
Under normal circumstances, being promoted to such a position would thrill everyone; even though it’s just half a level, considering their original positions, such a promotion is akin to reaching the sky.
Now, everyone’s wish has finally co true.
However, when they think of the fate of those other executives, no one feels happy at all.
Who knows if Su Xin might initiate another executive purge?
Compared to death, everyone feels that their previous life was better. After all, they were regarded as soone beneath only one person but above tens of thousands in Yonghui Financial Group and were considered major players worldwide.
Now, although they’ve been promoted by half a level, they live in constant fear, worrying that Su Xin might co for them.
The key is that they can’t stop him or escape.
As long as Su Xin cos knocking, their fate can only be one of dead ends.
Since that’s the case, what else is there to say?
No matter how excessive Su Xin’s demands are, just try to et them.
Even if they are relieved of their positions by the board of directors, it’s better than dying at Su Xin’s hands.
Having been executives for so many years, they themselves are already among the ranks of capitalists; even if they are ousted from Yonghui Financial Group’s managent team, at most their status will be greatly reduced, but their quality of life won’t be significantly affected.
So, after a bout of feigned discussion, the executives tacitly agreed to all of Su Xin’s terms—
Hand over all the personnel responsible for the attack on Su Xin, whether directly or indirectly related, even those who rely approved the logistics for the task force, including the logistics departnt head and the information dispatch departnt head.
Especially the Kangbo Biological Branch located in Lening City; it was directly decided to split up, sell off all assets, and abandon all business.
The final item was Su Xin’s demand—
Due to Su Xin’s peaceful life being disrupted, they decided to compensate him with ten billion in emotional damages, three luxurious villas in the Celestial Kingdom, and to permanently waive the wages for servants and the costs for property and sanitary managent, as well as ten billion worth of shares in a highly promising company under Yonghui Financial Group, a Black Gold mber Card from the Celestial Kingdom’s Peak Club, and a permanent first-class green card symbolizing noble status in the Celestial Kingdom.
Besides that, they also planned to bring along several world-renowned actresses and so exceptionally trained won to personally negotiate with Su Xin.
Though there’s a great risk, in Deng Zhongquan’s view, if Su Xin wants to kill them, they wouldn’t have a chance to escape anyway, so it’s better to show so bravery and openly negotiate with him.
Even if sacrificing such great interests of the company, they could earn so rit in the negotiations, their performance could be considered competent, and they would have a better chance of preserving their current position in the future.
When the talks ended and they reported to the board of directors, it was already past eleven at night.
Deng Zhongquan, as the newly appointed CEO, also stood as Yonghui Financial Group’s new representative and imdiately established contact with Zhan Shijie, expressing Yonghui Financial Group’s current stance.
The two parties communicated for a long ti.
...
November 3rd, this day was exceptionally long.
From the dawn in Wanghai Country, which is the evening in the Celestial Kingdom, the news of the public appearance of the Superpower User in a black robe caused a global uproar, sparking heated discussions worldwide.
This fervor continued for several hours, not only showing no signs of abating but growing progressively more intense, with the montum in public discourse increasing.
Additionally, Su Xin’s declaration, coupled with his intimidating stance that left the world afraid to respond openly, and the revelation that he consecutively killed several senior executives of Yonghui Financial Group, greatly impacted the stock prices of so listed companies under Yonghui Financial Group, triggering turmoil in the global financial and pharmaceutical markets.
Investors and shareholders didn’t know if Su Xin intended to uproot Yonghui Financial Group entirely or if Yonghui Financial Group could even respond at all; they only understood that Yonghui Financial Group might truly face enormous risk, and thus many listed companies under it might be implicated.
In such tis, the safest approach is to quickly sell off stocks related to Yonghui Financial Group.
Under such panic selling, the global stock market suffered a blow.
anwhile, following internal debates and studies within think tanks, various nation’s officials engaged in mutual contact and discreetly convened a remote video conference to similarly discuss how to respond to Su Xin.
Another party is the Nirvana Association.
They dispatched elite staff from a secret division located in the Celestial Kingdom, seeking the chance to covertly approach Su Xin and propose conditions for negotiation and cooperation.
Yet, Su Xin was under such scrutiny that they couldn’t get close, only able to hover around the hotel where Su Xin was staying, waiting for an opportunity.
At that mont, Su Xin was sitting in a luxury suite on the twenty-sixth floor of the hotel, gazing out through large, bright floor-to-ceiling windows at the bustling nightscape outside.
He had been dazing like this for a long ti.
Even died and resurrected once in between.
Initially, Su Xin thought this trip to the Celestial Kingdom would trigger a world-shocking conflict, with him resurrecting again and again, subduing the opponent until the fights gradually ceased.
Unexpectedly, not only did Yonghui Financial Group so decisively admit defeat, even the Celestial Kingdom had no intention of clashing with him; they didn’t even openly oppose his excessive demands, choosing instead to go back to discuss, seemingly preparing for serious talks.
No resistance from opponents is not interesting at all.
No matter how exciting a ga is, if its monsters don’t fight back and just let you unleash all sorts of skill attacks, there’s no thrill to it.
"Perhaps, I shouldn’t appear too invincible; at least the resurrection should not seem limitless."
"That way, if they think there’s a chance to kill completely, they won’t be so cautious anymore. Maybe... they’ll be willing to engage more actively."
"After scraping a huge amount of money from Yonghui Financial Group, I’ll then appropriately show so flaws or weaknesses to prompt them into action..."
Su Xin’s lips gradually curved upwards.
When he wanted to intimidate various parties, he rely needed to showcase his strength as much as possible.
When he wanted to be bathed in blood, experiencing thrilling battles, he simply needed to reveal so flaws; those seemingly docile sheep diligently watching him from the shadows would transform into fierce wolves, tigers, and leopards and pounce all at once.
Sotis he desired the forr.
Sotis he craved the latter.
All of it depended on his mood.
