Extreme Almightiest Young Master

Chapter 704 Hostages...

"There’s a connection now." When Lin Feng heard Sun Jian say this, he immediately understood that, under such circumstances, Sun Jian still wanted to pressure Su Xiaoxi into signing with Jones Corporation. How could Lin Feng allow such a thing to happen? As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Feng’s silhouette flickered, and he grabbed Sun Jian’s hand without any hesitation, squeezing it firmly.

"Ah..."

An extremely agonizing scream suddenly reverberated backstage. Sun Jian felt as if his entire arm were being continuously burned by fire; the pain was simply unbearable. If he had a knife, he would have wished to chop his arm off to spare himself the suffering. Like a rabbit, Sun Jian jumped around nonstop, trying to withdraw his hand, but no matter how hard he tried, he couldn’t pull it free, and could only let Lin Feng grip it tightly.

"Lin Feng, please let Uncle Sun go! He didn’t want to do it; he was coerced by Yang Guo." Su Xiaoxi never expected Lin Feng to suddenly take action. Although she understood that Lin Feng was acting out of anger for her, Uncle Sun had indeed been forced, and for that reason, she couldn’t blame him. It was Yang Guo to blame—if not for him, Uncle Sun would never have forced her into such a situation. With this in mind, Su Xiaoxi quickly pleaded with Lin Feng to let go. Uncle Sun was already miserable enough; there was no need to prolong his suffering.

"Speak, what exactly is going on!" Lin Feng, upon hearing what Su Xiaoxi said, realized that he had misunderstood Sun Jian. However, Sun Jian, as Su Xiaoxi’s boss, should not have behaved in such a manner. Thinking this, Lin Feng released his grasp and coldly asked Sun Jian for an explanation, desiring to know what had happened to push Sun Jian, the boss, to pressure Su Xiaoxi.

"Lin Feng, I’m begging you, please don’t get involved in this matter, okay? You simply can’t handle it. Do you know? Now, all of my family members are in Yang Guo’s hands. If Xiao Xi doesn’t agree to the contract, not only will my family die, but even I will die too. Yang Guo has even had Ding Kun from the Tianhai underworld speak out; now, in Tianhai, no one dares to get involved in this matter. If there were any other way, how could I possibly ask Xiao Xi to do such a thing!"

Sun Jian pleaded with Lin Feng, explaining his helplessness. Under these circumstances, there were no other solutions. Lin Feng simply couldn’t handle this matter. Now, no one could do anything about the situation they were in, not even Ding Kun from the underworld had made it clear. The entire Tianhai had no one who would intervene, especially since Yang Guo was so adamant about securing Su Xiaoxi’s compliance, to the point of being ready to kill her at all costs if he failed to get her. Lin Feng was even less likely to resolve this!

But now, seeing Lin Feng’s intent, he was determined to deal with the matter thoroughly, which made Sun Jian all the more frightened. He truly didn’t want Lin Feng to get involved, fearing that any mishap would put his family in danger. With this thought, Sun Jian became sweaty and frantic, hoping he could convince Lin Feng not to interfere. He didn’t want his family to die over this; without them, life would be meaningless!

After listening to Sun Jian’s explanation, Lin Feng also understood what was going on. The root of it all lay with Yang Guo, with Jones Corporation, all back to them. Sun Jian too had been forced into pressuring Su Xiaoxi to sign because his family had been taken hostage. Knowing this, it was true that Sun Jian could not be blamed. Faced with such a situation, anybody would be helpless. Now Lin Feng also understood why Sun Jian had acted as he had that evening.

However, no matter what, Su Xiaoxi would not be signing with Jones Corporation tonight. Doing so would be like pushing her into a pit of fire, and Lin Feng could not commit to such an act. Since Lin Feng had stumbled upon this scenario, he decided that the matter must be resolved. Moreover, Jones Corporation had even collaborated with others to undermine Cloud Fund, making them even less forgivable.

With that in mind, Lin Feng took out his phone and dialed Senior Sister Chu Meng’s number.

"Senior Sister, help me investigate Jones Corporation. I suspect that the Jones family is one of the forces that schemed against Cloud Fund last time." As soon as the call connected, Lin Feng went straight to the point and asked Senior Sister Chu Meng to investigate Jones Corporation, sharing his suspicion with her. He knew that even though she no longer had Cloud Fund, she still had many cards to play, and investigating a company like Jones Corporation was most fitting for her.

"What! Junior Brother, are you sure?" Chu Meng, hearing Lin Feng’s words, could hardly believe her ears. There had been no signs before the incident with Cloud Fund, and now the junior brother had so quickly identified one of the culprits behind the scenes. This was almost magical. How did the junior brother know that Jones Corporation was one of the masterminds?

"I’m fairly certain. I’ll discuss the details with you when I get back." Hearing the tone of Chu Meng’s voice, Lin Feng knew what she was thinking. Now was not the right time to discuss these matters, and the investigation was still pending. The rest would be addressed later.

"Alright, I’ll handle it now," Chu Meng replied before hanging up the phone, and immediately began calling her other connections to arrange the investigation into Jones Corporation. She had immense trust in her junior brother. She knew that he wouldn’t make such claims without confidence. All she needed to do was follow his instructions. As for anything else, it would become clear once the junior brother returned.

"Hello, Duoduo? Where are you right now?" After Chu Meng hung up, Lin Feng hurriedly called Qian Duoduo. The situation had escalated greatly, and he didn’t want any accidents to happen. Since Yang Guo had already had underworld figures issue a statement, it was better for Qian Duoduo to keep those underworld figures in check, to avoid adding unnecessary complications to resolving the matter.

"I’m still in the Golden Triangle, haven’t returned to Tianhai yet. What’s going on?" Qian Duoduo was quite surprised when she suddenly received a call from Lin Feng, wondering why Lin Feng would call her at this time. If nothing unexpected had happened, it surely meant Lin Feng needed her for something; otherwise, he wouldn’t be calling her right now.

"Here’s the thing, I want you to send out a warning on behalf of the Great South Gang—tell those **** inside the country not to get involved in anything related to Su Xiaoxi," Lin Feng explained his request directly to Qian Duoduo, which for her, required nothing more than a word.

"Okay, I’ll get right on it," Qian Duoduo said as soon as she heard Lin Feng. She instantly realized that Lin Feng was handling something related to Su Xiaoxi. Although she didn’t know much about Su Xiaoxi, the fact that Lin Feng was taking charge meant that she, as Lin Feng’s woman, would definitely support him without hesitation. As for why, Lin Feng would naturally tell her when she got back to Tianhai. After hanging up Lin Feng’s call, Qian Duoduo immediately set out to do as Lin Feng had instructed, calling the bosses of major gangs back home...

What!

How is that possible!

Just who exactly is Lin Feng!

...

Su Xiaoxi and Sun Jian were completely stunned by what Lin Feng said, hearing both phone conversations clearly. Lin Feng had just handled two seemingly impossible tasks with just a couple of calls, leaving them at a loss for words.

Jones Corporation—Su Xiaoxi and Sun Jian, being in the entertainment industry, knew perfectly well what kind of company it was. Lin Feng’s Senior Sister Chu Meng was able to investigate such a company; what kind of person was she? This... this was simply incredible!

Even more astonishing was Lin Feng’s second call, which left them utterly shocked. To warn all the **** within the country was not something an ordinary person could do, and to mention the Great South Gang was even more unbelievable. They knew, even with their limited knowledge, that the Great South Gang was one of the leading organizations in the country. Lin Feng had managed it all with just a single phone call...

At this thought, both looked at Lin Feng with indescribable amazement in their hearts. They knew Lin Feng was incredible and mystical, but they could never have imagined he possessed such power, to make such calls was truly inconceivable. Just who was Lin Feng, and how could someone so young possess such capabilities?

Lin Feng glanced at the astonished Su Xiaoxi and Sun Jian, unsurprised by their reaction. He then proceeded to dial Zhu Tao’s number. With the previous matters settled, what remained was to take care of Yang Guo and incidentally rescue Sun Jian’s family members. Lin Feng deemed himself above personally dealing with such matters, so entrusting Zhu Tao with the task was fitting.

"Young Master, what would you like me to do?" Zhu Tao was quite surprised to receive a call from Lin Feng at this time, thinking it unusual for the young master to contact him now; Lin Feng typically wouldn’t call him at such an hour unless there was some special task to arrange. With that thought, Zhu Tao hurriedly asked.

"Here’s the plan. You take Xiao Hao to... let Xiao Hao take action while you ensure his safety, understood?" Lin Feng laid out the plan for Zhu Tao to take Leng Hao to the same place where they had rescued Su Xiaoxi. He briefly explained the situation, instructing Zhu Tao to kill Yang Guo and Ding Kun, and rescue the hostages. Given the timing, Yang Guo would likely be at that location. Originally, Lin Feng wanted only Zhu Tao to handle this, but considering Leng Hao was also present, he decided it would be a good opportunity for Leng Hao to gain some experience.

"Understood, Young Master. Don’t worry, I will handle it well, and we will certainly rescue the hostages. Should I take Leng Hao and set off right now?" Upon hearing Lin Feng’s instructions, Zhu Tao realized the task at hand. He had no aversion to the order to take Leng Hao and carry out an assassination. People like Yang Guo and Ding Kun deserved death, and any outcome for them was insignificant. With that in mind, he promptly agreed.
