Chapter 568 - Feng Yonghui’s Death
Chapter 568: Feng Yonghui’s Death
This press conference was actually very important because it was to introduce the plans for the land over the next year. Therefore, many people in the country would have been watching this press conference.
Other than that, there were also people from other industries who would also watch the press conference. For them, the earlier they learned about the news, the better it would be for their business.
Lastly, there were some elderly people or people who had nothing better to do who had watched the press conference.
All in all, there was a rather large amount of audience.
Hence, when the audience saw Feng Yonghui exposing his family’s wrongdoings in front of so many reporters, they were all stunned.
At that moment, they were no different from the reporters and the big shots. They were all stunned by Feng Yonghui. ‘Is this guy crazy? Is he looking to kill himself? He’s actually self-destructing in that kind of location?
At the same time, all the television stations panicked.
‘Oh s*it, oh s*it, this is one big f*ck up.’
Initially, when Feng Yonghui began talking, there were people from the television station who felt that something was wrong. Some of the workers wanted to cut off the signal, but that livestream was a signal broadcasted by the related departments. Hence, who would actually have the guts to cut it off so easily?
If Feng Yonghui were to change his tone and say something serious, who would then be able to bear the responsibility?
Some wanted to wait and see how the matter developed, while others wanted to ask their superiors for instructions. However, with just a slight delay, the entire scene of how Feng Yonghui self-destructed was broadcasted.
‘We’ve got a problem!
‘A big problem!’
Very soon, the television stations cut off the signals urgently. All the viewers who were watching in front of the television snapped back to reality.
And then…
The discussions blew up!
The audiences who saw Feng Yonghui confessing to his crimes in front of their televisions started to talk about the matter online.
All large social media apps or even bbs including Weibo, WeChat, Tianya, Tieba were flooded with users and started discussing the matter.
Other than watching the livestream on television, there were livestreams on the internet as well, so some people took the chance to record before the signal was cut off, some even rewinded and recorded the whole thing over again..
Hence, those videos and screenshots were all being spreaded online on a grand scale.
The first reaction of those who had seen it was. ‘This is fake, isn’t it? How could someone confess to their crimes in such an event? Furthermore, they’re such a big family, wouldn’t there be many parties involved in this as well?’
However, after watching the entire video, they could not help but believe that there really was such a person who had done such a thing!
On Weibo’s hot searches, Tianya and Tieba’s trending posts, news of Feng Yonghui’s confession soared and became a hot topic. This led to more people noticing these information.
The big shot who was Feng Yonghui’s direct subordinate reacted quickly. He called the related departments to cover up the news before he was even done handling matters at the scene. Then, he called his superior for instructions.
Very quickly, the trending topic was removed, the video was deleted, Error 404’s emerged from the posts and all groups discussing the topic were instantly vaporized.
The Fengs were not an ordinary small family, neither were Feng Yonghui and Old Master Feng ordinary people. When such a thing happened to them, it would cause a huge stir.
Numerous social media websites and online companies received phone calls asking them not to discuss this matter. Countless people were invited to for a discussion where all they were asked to do was to mitigate the damage as much as possible.
However, even though the related departments reacted quickly, the netizens were even quicker. They started to use homonyms and cryptics to discuss the matter. Meanwhile, the video and screenshots were also spreading silently.
The fire may have been extinguished on the surface, another wave was already lurking silently behind the shadows.
Furthermore, the public opinion in China may have been controlled, but not overseas. That day, there were several foreign reporters on site. Hence, even though all the videos and recordings had been confiscated, they still recorded it in text and sent it overseas. Therefore, this matter had also started to spread abroad, which in turn pushed the country to deal with this matter seriously.
Therefore, after controlling the public’s opinion, the country immediately took this matter seriously and set up a special investigation team to investigate the matter. The level of experts and veterans used was completely unseen before.
‘The upper echelons are probably furious this time! Feng Yonghui’s matter is too despicable, they’re going to have to make sure that they resolve the root of the problem!’
During the investigation, Feng Yonghui told them everything he knew, including all the secrets of his family. He even gave them all the evidence, which confused the special investigation team who had worked countless cases before.
‘I’ve never met such a cooperative person before…
‘Is this considered to be a surrender? Is this considered a contribution?
‘This feels very weird.’
With Feng Yonghui’s cooperation, coupled with how big of a ruckus the matter had caused, no one dared to speak up for the Fengs. Therefore, the investigation team was able to progress with the matter very quickly.
Soon, Old Master Feng, Feng Li and everyone in the Fengs were arrested, including Feng Yonghui’s son.
The Fengs not only had businesses on the surface, but they also had hidden assets in the dark. Because of the sudden incident and Feng Yonghui’s quick admission, none of the related personnel could escape and were all arrested.
Within a night, the Fengs, who were a huge family, crumbled to the ground.
When the tree falls, the monkeys scatter. All the people around the Fengs started to try their best to cut ties with them. The enemies of the Fengs also took the opportunity to step on them.
The moment Feng Yonghui confessed in public, the Fengs’s fate was sealed.
One week later, Su Yang calculated the time accurately and arrived at the Imperial Capital using [Space Traversing Eyes]. Then, he searched for a full five hours in the Imperial Capital. After a few attempts, he finally found Feng Yonghui’s location with the [Fruit-Loving Pen].
In the middle of the night, Su Yang used [Hands Of Fate] to stand by Feng Yonghui’s side. Because of his performance over the past few days, Feng Yonghui was placed in a room with 24 hours of surveillance.
When time was frozen, Su Yang waved his hand and Feng Yonghui’s clothes were removed. With another wave of his hand, a person with the same build and appearance as Feng Yonghui appeared on the bed. Then, Su Yang snapped his fingers and the clothes were automatically put onto that person, then placed on the bed by Su Yang.
After that, Su Yang threw Feng Yonghui into his phone and left.
Time then returned to normal. From the surveillance, Feng Yonghui had been sleeping on the bed and there was nothing strange about him.
When he arrived at the virtual space, Feng Yonghui had already woken up in fear. He was only wearing a single shirt and his face was no longer as calm and composed as when Su Yang saw him previously.
He looked at Su Yang in fear and retreated to the wall. Then, he carefully observed the scene before him.
After a while, he asked, “Where… Where exactly is this place?”
Su Yang opened his arms. “Welcome to my world.”
Feng Yonghui looked at Su Yang. “Your world?”
Su Yang nodded. “Yes.”
As he spoke, many little monsters appeared including Fei Fei, the Little Monster Beans, Little Hus, the Quickgold Monsters and Gru.
Looking at the weird monsters, Feng Yonghui’s eyes widened in disbelief…
After a while, he suddenly covered his head and screamed in pain. After a while, he raised his head, and as if recalling what he had done these past few days, his gaze slowly lost focus.
After a long time, tears rolled down his face. “What have I done? What have I done? What the f*ck have I done?!”
He seemed to be completely defeated by what he had done in the past week as he kept questioning himself.
In the end, he looked at Su Yang and asked, “Did you do all of this?”
Su Yang nodded. “That’s right.”
Feng Yonghui looked at Su Yang. His pale lips opened and closed as he said weakly, “What kind of… Monster have we provoked?”
He looked at the little monsters beside Su Yang a few times before laughing out loud. His laughter was filled with sorrow and despair. “Hahahaha!”
After laughing, he slowly sat down on the ground and kept saying, “So this is true power. So this is what true power looks like… We really are clueless to the world.”
Su Yang said, “Chief Feng, I told you the last time we met that I would destroy the Fengs. Now, I’ve done it.”
Feng Yonghui raised his head and looked at Su Yang. His eyes were filled with hatred and despair. He lunged at Su Yang but was stopped by Janet.
Feng Yonghui, who was pinned to the ground, glared at Su Yang with a carefree look as if he was about to die. “Su Yang, you’ve won this time, fair and square. However, what goes around comes around. We’ll come back for you one fine day and fight it out once again!”
“Hehe, well said.” Su Yang chuckled and clapped his hands. Then, he looked at Feng Yonghui and repeated what he said the last time he met Feng Yonghui. “But, I really want to say that you know nothing about true power.”
With that said, Su Yang waved his hand to get the little monsters to disperse while he took a toy bear and placed it in Feng Yonghui’s embrace…
After Feng Yonghui died, Su Yang once again used [Hands Of Fate] to exchange Feng Yonghui’s corpse with his avatar that was disguised with [Squid’s Black Tooth Ink].
With that, Su Yang’s final flaw had been patched up.
Once again, he used [Space Traversing Eyes] to return to Shanghai. Su Yang entered the virtual space and exited the castle gate. He then arrived at the [Burning Reincarnation Circus] that had been stationed at the castle gate.
He walked in and flipped open the notebook. There was indeed one more person’s name on the list, Feng Yonghui.
Su Yang chuckled and tapped on Feng Yonghui’s profile picture.
Suddenly, a black fog appeared in the middle of the circus. The black fog dissipated, and the confused Feng Yonghui appeared in the middle of the circus. He looked around in confusion and mumbled, “Is this… The land of the dead? This doesn’t seem quite like how I imagined it to be.”
After scanning his surroundings for a while, his gaze landed on Su Yang, who was sitting below the stage. Then, his eyes widened in disbelief. A moment later, a shrill scream echoed through the virtual space. “No!”
…
Su Yang was not a pervert. Of course, he did not want to kill Feng Yonghui while he was still alive and torture him after he was dead. Su Yang just… Wanted to reap some benefits.
After all, the fall of the Fengs had only relieved Su Yang of his worries and made the biggest enemy that he had faced disappear. However, it did not bring Su Yang any benefits.
The requirement of the Advanced Random Mission was for Su Yang to defeat the enemy and gain benefits. It was not that he could just defeat the enemy. That was why Su Yang wanted to capture Feng Yonghui’s soul and bring it to the [Burning Reincarnation Circus]. He wanted to see if the Fengs had any assets that could be transferred without attracting attention.
‘Now that the enemy has been defeated, time for me to harvest my rewards…’
