Master of the End Times

Chapter 565 - A Shifty Underling

Chapter 565: A Shifty Underling

Right now, Tian Yan was at the edge of death under Qin Feng’s foot.

“Tell me!”

Qin Feng’s loud, stern voice shook Tian Yan to the core of his soul. The fear and terror that he was feeling was now multiplied even more.

“President Qin, it’s a misunderstanding. I swear! I’m just here to recover something the Red Sun Corp has misplaced a while ago! That’s it!”

Tian Yan struggled as he squeezed out the name “Red Sun Corp”, hoping that this would make Qin Feng think twice and let him live.

In the Human Alliance, an organization could only rise up by being endorsed by C-tier aptitude users.

And some of these organizations were quite well-known.

One of them was the Red Sun Corp. This one, though, was not a C-tier endorsed organization, and it had not been for quite some time now. It was now a B-tier endorsed organization.

“Oh, Red Sun, you say?” A blink of intrigue flashed in Qin Feng’s eyes.

He could guess what Tian Yan was after now.

The man was after the Godwill Atlas. Still, he could not understand why the Red Sun was two years early.

If he could not understand why, Qin Feng could still interrogate the information out of this man.

When Tian Yan saw that Qin Feng had pulled back his foot, he thought he was safe. However, before he was able to celebrate it, Qin Feng had pressed his palm on his dantian.

“Asteroid Assimilation!”

Brooooom!!!

A huge hole was formed on Tian Yan’s dantian as his internal energy was being absorbed by Qin Feng.

In that instant, all four pools of his internal energy in the dantian were constantly sapped away.

Tian Yan’s face turned pale as his entire body shook tremendously.

His limbs were all crushed. Now, his dantian was severely injured by Qin Feng too.

Still, to a C-tier ancient warrior, these were mere scratches. They only needed to rest for two to three months to heal up completely.

And Qin Feng did not intend to allow him to recover from his injuries. By sapping away his internal energy, Tian Yan would have lost his powers and descended to something even weaker than an F-tier.

Nonetheless, Qin Feng still left some drops of internal energy in him; this was done so that Tian Yan would not die right away.

Tian Yan widened his eyes and cried out in a panic, “Nooo!!! My... My internal energy! What happened to it?! What have you done to me?!”

Qin Feng did not bother to answer his questions. Instead, he waved at Bai Li.

Bai Li then stepped out from the shadows and stood next to Qin Feng.

Tian Yan did not know what awaited him next. He felt something much worse than death was about to happen to him though.

“No! You can’t do this to me! Do you know who I am? I am a member of the Red Sun Corp! Our president Hong Lie is a B5-tier ancient warrior!”

Tian Yan hoped that this would stop Qin Feng from doing what he was about to do.

Still, Tian Yan did not know just what Qin Feng had been through. So what if the man was a B-tier aptitude user? Qin Feng had murdered the sh*t out of these people before.

Nonetheless, despite the news of Guang Wei’s death that had shook Beihua City, it only lasted for a while. In fact, killing a general from the Human Alliance, despite him working together with the Dark Coalition, was not enough for people to forget and forgive this quickly. The truth was, the news was suppressed quickly by Shang Han.

Everyone at Dragon Capital now knew that Qin Feng was a prodigy. However, did they know that Qin Feng was the one who slayed all those other prodigies in the Perished Lands?

They thought that Qin Feng could not last that fifteen days. Yet, Qin Feng was able to accomplish something that no one had been able to before. Even the A-tiers thought he was just a mere newbie.

Besides, that incident on top of Dragon Capital was only known by several inner circles. Most people outside did not know what happened.

Thus, the ones who knew about Qin Feng all feared him. As for the ones who did not, this was due to the bliss of ignorance!

“Bai Li, ask him why he needs that thing.”

Colorful light radiated from Bai Li’s eyes as she looked at Tian Yan. The man was now weaker than an F-tier ancient warrior; so, it was quite easy for her to make him sing anything she wanted to hear.

As expected, Tian Yan told them everything he knew almost immediately.

Now, Qin Feng knew everything.

“How unexpected. Due to me, things have changed so drastically!”

Qin Feng knew that during the timeline before he was reborn the Red Sun Corp used every favor and resource they had to expedite the 4th level of the unknown region. Many organizations knew about it.

Despite how much of a low profile they kept, news about them finding Jade Cape and the Godwill Atlas was known by a select few.

The mayor of Fu City was merely a D-tier at the time. However, the governor of the Three Cities along the Sun was a C-tier and was linked to another organization whose president was a B-tier aptitude user.

Thus, the two organizations clashed.

Right now, the Red Sun Corp’s target had changed and was directed at Qin Feng instead. Now, there was no telling what they were planning next!

Still, no matter what happened, Qin Feng had no need to fear them. He would just take them on each time they threw something at him.

Thus, Qin Feng raised his hand as a surge of internal energy burst out of his fingers and penetrated Tian Yan’s skull!

Tian Yan died in one shot, eyes wide open!

The people that appeared around Qin Feng were all higher-ups in the Fengli Organization.

Some of them did not personally know Qin Feng. This was also the first time they had seen Qin Feng kill someone. And they were so in awe when they saw that he could kill a C-tier aptitude user so easily.

They were so overwhelmed with awe and fear that they stood around him silently, not daring to say anything.

Qin Feng raised his head and looked around him. Despite not having done anything wrong, the crowd did not dare to look at him in the eye and lowered their gaze.

“Let’s go back. We’ll hold a meeting tomorrow. Attendance is compulsory!”

After saying this, Qin Feng walked away with Bai Li, leaving Tian Yan’s corpse on the ground.

Wang Chen coughed out some blood as he approached Qin Feng.

“Boss!”

“Go home and rest. Let’s talk tomorrow when you feel better.” Qin Feng said as he lightly tapped on Wang Chen’s shoulder. A string of gentle, warm internal energy flowed into Wang Chen’s body, healing any internal injury that he had almost instantly.

Feeling much better now, Wang Chen nodded. “Alright. I’m glad you’re back, boss. There isn’t anything I want to say other than this!”

Qin Feng nodded before walking straight back home.

This night, despite the fact that their boss had finally come home, no one dared to visit and disturb Qin Feng at his home!

Standing atop of the highest building in the city, Qin Feng looked at the view below him. The Floating City kept floating menacingly above his head.

Bai Li stood next to him, wondering what he was looking at or what was on his mind.

“What’s wrong? You’re upset that Zhao Xiang became a traitor?” Bai Li asked.

Qin Feng shook his head. “Yes... and no!”

“Oh? You humans are so complicated. If it’s yes, then yes. If it’s no, then no! Why make it so difficult to understand?”

Qin Feng put his hand on her head and rubbed her silky hair gently. “There’s something that is still too early for you to understand.”

Then, he looked at the massive Fengli City below. “I could kill a B-tier easily. I could take on an A-tier now. Yet, despite owning Fengli, I don’t have anyone under me who’s at least B-tier. C-tiers are also quite limited under my reign!”

“Hence, despite the city’s and organization’s rapid development, they could not keep up with me. This has resulted in many having some funny ideas and wanting to grab Fengli for themselves. It’s like Fengli is a massive, delicious cake and many have the idea of eating it whole... but they could not because they couldn’t devour it in one bite! Now, they are getting increasingly anxious as the cake grows bigger and bigger!”
