The Strongest Dandy in the City-Chapter 458: Refusal

Hao Maoyan and Yin Feilong exchanged a glance, aware that even if Ye Chenfeng really let them go tonight, what about later? The Victory Sky Society would absolutely move against the Blood Dyed Association and the Wanren Association—wouldn’t they still end up dead at Ye Chenfeng’s hands eventually?

There’s an old saying, "Keep the green mountains alive, and you won’t worry about firewood."

The formerly astute leaders of their associations, Hao Maoyan and Yin Feilong, had been subjected to stress time and again today, losing the careful considerations they once held. Now, they were fixated on one certain outcome—since they were going to die anyway, they might as well die with a bang. That was the thought in their minds at the moment.

Each of them had a syringe filled with blue liquid in their hands, and after Hao Maoyan sighed faintly, a resolute expression filled his eyes. Without hesitation, he took out the syringe and injected the blue liquid into his body.

Upon seeing Hao Maoyan’s action, Yin Feilong immediately followed suit, injecting the blue liquid into his body as well.

All these events unfolded within a few short seconds, so by the time Ye Chenfeng wanted to stop them, it was already too late.

As Hao Maoyan and Yin Feilong’s muscles swelled to the point of bursting their clothes, Ye Chenfeng knew that these two had resigned themselves to death. He wanted to know who was behind this. If Hao Maoyan and Yin Feilong died, wouldn’t the lead be lost again?

"President Ye, to tell you the truth, we don’t know the real identity of the person who provided us with this blue liquid. They just instructed us to use it against you. It seems, President Ye, that you have angered quite a few formidable enemies! Today we might just be stepping ahead of you, President Ye, but I believe it won’t be long before you come down to join us," Hao Maoyan said.

After standing up from the chair, Hao Maoyan felt his body brimming with strength and knew that even if he wasn’t killed by Ye Chenfeng, his body would explode and he would die within half an hour. Facing this unavoidable truth, instead of fearing death, Hao Maoyan became composed and fearless.

"President Hao, who would have thought we would die on the same day? Unable to be born on the same day of the same year, but wishing to die on the same day of the same year—if there really is an afterlife, I hope not to be your adversary anymore, President Hao. I wish instead that we could be true brothers," Yin Feilong expressed his sincere thoughts before death, for when a man is about to die, his words are kind—this must be what was said of someone like Yin Feilong!

"Alright, President Yin, if there’s a next life, let’s be brothers. It has been quite some time since I’ve worked out my body, I suppose you feel the same, President Yin? Let’s leave this world with a bang," Hao Maoyan charged towards Ye Chenfeng.

Yin Feilong quickly followed Hao Maoyan’s lead. The emotions displayed by these two at their end truly moved Ye Chenfeng. It’s a pity that tonight, facing Yin Feilong and Hao Maoyan, death was inevitable, even if Ye Chenfeng did not lay a hand on them.

"In light of your last bit of realization, I’ll leave you with your whole bodies, sparing you from exploding to death," Ye Chenfeng’s figure flashed, dodging the two men’s attacks, and threw punches with both his left and right hands, hitting Hao Maoyan and Yin Feilong in the chest—shattering the arteries connected to their hearts.

Hao Maoyan and Yin Feilong felt their lives ebbing away quickly, and the immense power within their bodies also began to vanish. At that moment, there was no hatred towards Ye Chenfeng in their hearts, and in extremely weak voices, they even said "Thank you" to Ye Chenfeng.

Looking at Hao Maoyan and Yin Feilong, who lay dead on the ground completely devoid of life, Ye Chenfeng shook his head reluctantly and then frowned deeply, muttering to himself, "Who exactly provided them with this blue liquid? I feel like this strange flu incident is somehow connected to this situation."

"Clap clap clap clap clap clap!" While Ye Chenfeng was lost in brief contemplation, the door to the private room was pushed open again, and a resounding clap echoed within the room. Then a magnetic voice reached Ye Chenfeng’s ears, "Not bad, not bad at all, I’m quite satisfied with your performance today. You are indeed qualified to join the Devourer Empire; I can make you into a high-ranking official immediately. I’m sure you wouldn’t refuse, would you?"

Hei Xin, wearing a gray mask, walked into the room, with the expressionless Hei Xiong following closely at Hei Xin’s side.

Ye Chenfeng felt an unprecedented sense of danger emanating from Hei Xin and immediately shifted to a state of high alert in his mind. He guessed that the blue liquid might have something to do with the person before him and asked with uncertainty, "Devouring Empire? What is that?"

Hei Xin stepped closer and explained, "The Devouring Empire is an international organization. I am Hei Xin, the person in charge of the Devouring Empire in Huaxia Country. Once you join the Devouring Empire, you can call me boss." fгee𝑤ebɳoveɭ.cøm

"Of course, the Devouring Empire is by no means a mere organization. I know you are a clever person and must have guessed a lot, right? Yes, I provided the original bacteria for the previous flu mutation. Today’s blue liquid was also provided by me. These are merely the worst of the technological products within the Devouring Empire. If you join the Devouring Empire, you will definitely see a whole new world where the Devouring Empire can take you to the pinnacle of power."

Listening to Hei Xin’s words, Ye Chenfeng couldn’t express his astonishment. Setting aside the original bacteria of the flu mutation, the blue liquid, despite its fatal flaws, would undoubtedly cause an uproar if made public. Hei Xin claimed that such a thing was the worst of the technologies in the Devouring Empire?

How could this be possible? With the technology of this era, to be able to create the blue liquid was already a miracle. Ye Chenfeng’s mind filled with increasing doubts, he asked, "Why would you do this?"

"I am doing this just to test you, and I think the tests were well worth it. I have discovered an exceptional talent. As long as you join the Devouring Empire, you might even surpass me in the future. This means you could hold tremendous power and wealth. Isn’t that what everyone dreams of?"

The eyes beneath Hei Xin’s grey mask stared at Ye Chenfeng, he continued, "I know you must be very curious about the Devouring Empire by now, right? You might even think I’m exaggerating? However, once you join the Devouring Empire, won’t all the doubts in your mind unravel naturally?"

"You’re saying that you did all this just to test me? I admit I’m interested in your so-called Devouring Empire, but I won’t join the Devouring Empire. There’s nothing I, Ye Chenfeng, can’t come to understand without joining. Besides, I very much want to smash that mask on your face."

Without any warning, Ye Chenfeng threw a punch towards Hei Xin’s face. Hei Xin was extremely quick; the moment Ye Chenfeng threw his punch, Hei Xin had already shifted to the side.

"Young man, I’ll admit your strength is considerable, but you are not yet capable of defeating me. It seems I need to teach you a lesson today, or else you won’t join the Devouring Empire willingly."

Hei Xin also gathered strength in his body, launching a simple, unadorned punch at Ye Chenfeng who decided to meet the mysterious person head-on, summoning his Level Nine Soul Force.

"Bang!"

Their fists collided, and Ye Chenfeng was forced back five or six steps while Hei Xin remained unmoved at his original spot.

"Good, indeed you are the one I chose. You may not agree today, but one day you will. I am looking forward to you joining the Devouring Empire." Having said this, Hei Xin surprisingly didn’t persist and headed out of the private room.

Soon after Hei Xin left the private room, blood began to seep from the arm he had used to clash fists with Ye Chenfeng. The blood flowed continuously down his arm towards the ground.

Hei Xiong, who followed at Hei Xin’s side, showed a hint of shock on his expressionless face, asking, "Boss, what’s this?"

"Ye Chenfeng is no simple man. It seems we have underestimated him in the past. With his current strength, it might be possible for him to defeat me. Therefore, by any means necessary, I will make him join the Devouring Empire." Hei Xin’s voice, usually magnetic, now became somewhat hoarse and weathered.
