Deng Haiming’s face wore a confident smile, “Since you’ve come to me today, you must have made up your mind.”
“Otherwise, you wouldn’t be here.”
“And during that incident before, you were also suspected. I even suspected you might have wanted to use Du Weicai to deal with us.”
“After all, who can truly explain the ins and outs of matters like these?”
“Since you’ve made up your mind, don’t hesitate to help us. Once this is done, our two families will be allies.”
“If you oppose, I have reason to suspect you and Du Weicai were putting on a show, and then Ying Zheng would defect. In that case, we’d have to deal with you first. The Su Group would actually be a better target for us.”
As he said this, Deng Haiming lowered his voice and said with a cold laugh, “And I even have to thank you.”
“Without you, I wouldn’t have become the new patriarch of the Deng family.”
“In a way, I don’t hate Du Weicai that much. After all, he brought me immense benefits. If a man doesn’t look out for himself, heaven and earth will destroy him.”
Mu Feng’s smile became even more pronounced.
He glanced at the two coffins and said faintly, “You are truly heartless.”
“The seventh day memorial for your elder brother and nephew hasn’t even passed, and you’re already thanking their enemy in their mourning hall.”
“Aren’t you afraid they’ll jump up right now and take you with them?”
A sarcastic cold laugh appeared on Deng Haiming’s face, “Those words were just jokes at most.”
“If I were afraid of ghosts knocking at midnight, I wouldn’t have done such excessive things, and I even had a hand in this matter.”
“I know exactly what kind of person Du Weicai is. I’ve been using him from the start, but he dodged it back then. He was very clever, knowing what to do and what not to do.”
“Now that I have control of all the Deng family’s industries, this pawn is no longer useful.”
“And some of the things we cooperated on in the past cannot be leaked. Therefore, he must die.”
“Originally, I thought you would torture him to the point where life was worse than death. But I didn’t expect you to show mercy and even helped him recover from those ailments. Now that old schemer must have already gone into hiding. I need him to die without anyone knowing why.”
“Because how his foolish son wants to exploit him is something we can control.”
“Let’s cooperate for mutual benefit, otherwise, we are enemies.”
Mu Feng’s smile grew increasingly evident, “Just as I predicted.”
“Some people cannot be given opportunities, or they will push their luck.”
“I originally intended for you to fight each other to the death, but as you said, since we cannot extricate ourselves, then I will ensure you dare not provoke me again.”
Deng Haiming’s smile slowly faded, his gaze sharpening, “You are young, full of youthful vigor. I will pretend I didn’t hear what you said.”
“Now that we are being open and honest, there’s no need for us to beat around the bush.”
“Are you here today to cooperate with me, or do you want to come here to mock me?”
“If that’s the case, then you won’t be leaving today.”
Mu Feng shook his head, “There is another path for you.”
“I don’t need any path. What I need now is for your Su Group to become a knife in my hand. I want everyone to know the sharpness of my Deng family and that we cannot be easily tested.”
Deng Haiming’s voice carried an air of dominance.
Mu Feng’s smile gradually reappeared, “Then it seems there’s nothing for us to discuss.”
“You were given an opportunity, but you didn’t cherish it.”
“Next, you can prepare to endure true pain. Don’t worry, I won’t let you die. After all, if you die, the only one happy will be Du Weicai.”
“As I said before, I won’t even bother to watch you tear each other apart. Just don’t drag the Su Group into this.”
Deng Haiming’s expression became extremely impatient, and a strong killing intent appeared in his eyes.
“You’re being arrogant in front of me. It seems you don’t take me seriously at all.”
“Am I giving you too much face?”
He was already prepared to make a move.
Just then, Mu Feng suddenly projected a wisp of spiritual energy.
The two were only about a meter apart.
Deng Haiming clearly saw Mu Feng’s finger movements, but there was nothing there. He frowned, and just as he was about to ask, he suddenly felt a piercing pain emanating from his body.
The pain caused him to collapse directly onto the ground. He opened his mouth to say something but found he had lost the ability to speak.
His eyes were filled with terror, and he looked at Mu Feng with unspeakable dread.
Mu Feng merely smiled faintly, “Remember my words, this pain will only last for about ten minutes.”
“After this time, you should consider whether you are prepared to struggle in such pain for the rest of your life.”
“If I wanted to make your life worse than death, I wouldn’t need any special methods.”
“And you would be unable to defend against it.”
With that, he turned and left.
Deng Haiming slumped on the ground, trembling uncontrollably.
A storm of shock raged within him. He had never imagined he would encounter such a situation, which had completely overturned his understanding of the world.
Fear spread through his heart, but he was powerless.
He couldn't imagine what his fate would be if such pain continued.
Perhaps death would be a release, and Mu Feng’s visit today was merely a warning.
But even this warning was almost unbearable for him.
As ten minutes slowly passed, Deng Haiming was drenched in sweat, as if he had just been pulled out of water.
A deep sense of fear was evident in his eyes.
At this moment, he suddenly felt that he could speak again and couldn’t help but shout, “Help!”
Bodyguards rushed in.
When they saw Deng Haiming’s condition, their pupils constricted sharply, and they rushed forward to check on him.
“Mr. Deng, what happened to you?”
“I was ambushed by Mu Feng. That scoundrel isn’t human, he’s a ghost!” His eyes clearly showed deep fear.
The ten minutes of pain felt like a journey through the eighteen levels of hell.
He never wanted to experience such pain a second time in his life.
The bodyguards exchanged glances, and upon realizing the situation, they quickly summoned the family doctor.
After a series of examinations, no symptoms were found. The doctors even suspected that Mr. Deng was deliberately playing a joke on them.
Deng Haiming, however, deeply realized Mu Feng’s terrifying power and made up his mind.
