Outer Heaven.
At the banquet hall, the invited bosses and family heads were not in the mood to savor the delicacies beside them, standing in small groups, whispering secretly.
"Did they seek you out over there?"
A family head whispered to a familiar boss beside him,, and soone nearby sighed, "So you received it too?"
"Yep!"
The family head nodded, "What do you plan to do about tonight’s matter?"
A family head nearby pondered for a while and said, "The other party has clearly set up a trap. If we don’t play along, I’m afraid we won’t even make it out of Outer Heaven. Xiong Baiyi was a case in point."
"The other party uses thunderous thods to kill, just to show us the consequences if we disobey."
"Alas, but if we comply, our lives are still at risk."
Saying this, the family head felt an imnse frustration. They, after all, were bosses or family heads worth over a billion or tens of billions, prominent figures in Sea City, yet now they were cornered with no way out.
"In my opinion, it’s not only the two of us who have received this notice. Shooting the bird that sticks its head out, whatever the other side says later, don’t be the first to react."
"Yeah."
A smaller family head beside nodded in agreent.
"What kind of backing does the other party have, that they think they can eradicate us?"
Despite Xiong Baiyi being killed, which had shocked many, everyone present was seasoned in battle, none a pushover. Although they were sowhat shocked by Li Feng’s thods of killing, it didn’t necessarily an they were convinced.
A small family head hearing this also frowned and after a mont, said, "Maybe he thinks he has the strength to swallow us."
Just after these words, a nearby boss scoffed with disdain, "Hmph, from what I understand, everyone who ca here today is a figure of so consequence. There are hardly any families owning less than a billion or ten billion. Entire families combined, who has a thousand billion to devour us?"
"Does he think he’s the king?"
"Silence."
As murmurs filled the banquet hall, a loud call ca through, and everyone’s gaze instantly turned towards the side entrance of the hall.
Li Feng, now changed into a different garnt, entered the banquet hall and walked up to everyone under their gazes.
"Let introduce myself. I am Hidden Dragon, surna Li, na Feng."
"Li Feng!"
"Holy shit, could this Li Feng be that Century Group’s Li Feng?"
"Seems like the sa person!"
"Goddamn, where does this guy get the nerve to be so arrogant?"
"Silence."
The assembled individuals felt as if ten thousand horses were stampeding through their hearts. They had thought they were eting a King, but it turned out to be just a Bronze, one of the most widespread nicknas for Li Feng on the internet.
The guy who married into his wife’s family.
The pretty boy leech.
The guy who stepped in dog shit.
To think that he was the one who invited them over, truly screwed over.
"I invited all of you here for three things."
Li Feng, ignoring the astonished crowd, got straight to the point, sparing no ti for pleasantries.
"First, I know you all are the Xu Family’s minions, so I’m giving you a chance to break away from the Xu Family."
As Li Feng’s words faded, the crowd burst into uproar. Li Feng’s tone was imposing, demanding they sever ties with the Xu Family — an invisible powerhouse even greater than the Eight Families.
And who was Li Feng to dictate this?
"Silence."
Bai He, standing behind Li Feng, stepped forward and shouted loudly.
"You tell who to be quiet? What are you, exactly?" Suddenly, soone jumped out pointing at Bai He’s nose, Bai He’s expression darkened.
The agitator turned to Li Feng: "Li Feng, what do you think you are, daring to direct us around? You’re just a son-in-law who stepped in dog shit and beca a chairman; you’re getting ahead of yourself giving us orders."
"Exactly."
"What a joke."
With soone taking the lead, more people began to vocalize their agreent. After finding out about Li Feng’s identity, any dread they felt evaporated. This Li Feng was nothing; how dare he gesture and direct them.
Li Feng, however, remained unphased and calm, listening to the crowd’s protests, casually took a glass of wine and began to drink without trying to stop them.
Many family heads and bosses, seeing Li Feng’s disposition, felt like they were punching cotton. The crowd slowly quieted down, none of them fools.
They felt the calm before the storm.
"Are you done?"
Li Feng looked up at the quiet crowd, "I’m just giving you a choice."
"We don’t need to choose, is it even necessary, what are you to..."
The first family head who had stepped out before glared at Li Feng.
"Oh!"
Li Feng uttered while contemptuously glancing at the man, suddenly shook his hand holding the stem glass, which instantly shattered. Li Feng grabbed a shard of glass and casually tossed it.
The glass shard slit the man’s throat.
"You..."
This smaller family head clutched his neck but couldn’t speak, thudding to his knees. Although he wasn’t dead yet, he was bleeding severely from his carotid artery, and death was inevitable. This scene made the crowd gasp yet again.
"A choice has to be made, but choosing incorrectly has its own consequences."
Li Feng dominantly scanned the nurous family heads and bosses.
Chen Haotian twitched his lips. This Li Feng really was extrely arrogant, leaving others speechless. This guy killed without blinking, clearly playing by the rule of ’those who obey prosper, those who oppose perish.’
"Since no one opposes, then I’ll state the second matter, you all now belong to ."
Eh.
Heads around the room felt like dark lines were forming. This was needless, like farting while removing pants, redundant, but the people present tolerated it, knowing this was all a trap. This Mr. Li killed without faltering, and even if they didn’t like it, they had to bide their ti.
Li Feng looked around, then spoke again, "Then onto the third matter!"
