Chapter 161: Within 3 Meters, I Am Invincible!
Translator: AstralGhost Editor: Kurisu
The atmosphere in the training hall suddenly turned cold as those who were turning to leave were forced to stop.
“What is the meaning of this?” Miao Tianhua narrowed his eyes and looked at Bei Feng with a conflicted expression. As he turned around, he felt like a small prey which had locked eyes with a poisonous viper.
“Don’t worry, the compensation of our bet will be honored. The promised stakes of half of Mingyu Corporation’s shares will be handed to you with both hands! But what is the meaning of this now?” Miao Tianhua retained his composure and said with an icy voice.
Miao Tianhua had already prepared to admit defeat in the first place. He would pretend to treat Bei Feng courteously first. Many are the years to come; who can say what will happen in the future? Even if Bei Feng controlled half of Mingyu Corporation’s shares, he still had plenty of time to slowly plan and prepare to settle the score with him!
But the situation now… could it be that this young man was prepared to fight him to the death this time? Miao Tianhua slowly reached into his pocket and touched the controller within.
Bei Feng completely ignored Miao Tianhua’s words and turned to the two young men who were groaning on the ground. “Is it worth it to risk your life for such a person? As martial practitioners, you can either be brave and heroic, serving the country and the people, or you can be utterly devoid of conscience. But no matter what, the martial practitioner’s dignity and pride cannot be compromised!”
Bei Feng felt somewhat appreciative towards these two people. They obviously knew that they could not defeat the enemy, but for the sake of their loved ones, they did not hesitate to make the choice and rush towards their death.
The two men who were originally crestfallen looked up at Bei Feng as their eyes brightened. Right, when did it begin? Why have they thrown their pride away?
“If you still pride yourself as a martial practitioner, stand up and kill him!” Bei Feng pointed at Miao Tianhua and said.
The moment this short speech came out of Bei Feng’s mouth, not only did it impact the two young man heavily, it even stirred up Jin Sanjue and Men Jie’s blood . Although they felt that Bei Feng’s way of thinking was a little too extreme for them, it really suited their tastes.
“Fellow Daoist, this is against the rules. The other party had already agreed to comply with the bet and cede half of their company’s shares. If you want to forcefully eliminate everyone and take over their entire company, the ministry of supervision will not turn a blind eye to the matter.”
Jin Sanjue was extremely vexed in that moment. ‘This fellow is so petty that he would not let anyone get away even with a hostile look! Why must he seek revenge for the smallest grievance? After killing the other person’s son, he even plans to get rid of Miao Tianhua now!’
After thinking it through, Jin Sanjue decided to extend a favor to Bei Feng. He shook his head slightly and walked over to whisper in his ear.
“Oh? Then I’ll only stake my claim in his life. As for his fortune and company, apart from the security company under them, I won’t take anything else,” Bei Feng did not expect that there would be so many technicalities for something like this.
“This…” Jin Sanjue was stumped by Bei Feng’s reply. Mingyu Corporation’s assets were counted by the tens of billions. Since Bei Feng had stated that he was not staking his claim on the company, wouldn’t everything eventually end up in Fuzhou’s ministry of supervision guys’ hands? If it was like this, those old fellows at the ministry would probably not probe too much into the matter, right?
While Jin Sanjue was still hesitating, the two young men had already made their choice. They crawled up from the ground and looked at Miao Tianhua with a bitter gaze.
A sliver of a smile appeared on Bei Feng’s face. But just as he thought they were going to attack Miao Tianhua, the two unexpectedly charged towards him!
The smile on Bei Feng’s froze and his eyes turned frosty with disappointment. When the backbone of a martial practitioner was broken, could they still be called a martial practitioner?
As the two got closer and closer, the gleam of joy in their eyes became more apparent. Perhaps the two could already picture the scene of him being taken down by them?
‘Haha, with this huge contribution this time, we won’t have to worry about money again for the rest of our lives.’
‘This fellow is probably already scared silly, right? As expected, he’s just full of hot air. He’s just a tender flower who spent all his life in a greenhouse!’
A different thought fleeted through each person’s head. Truthfully, Bei Feng’s speech earlier had indeed touched them greatly. But, so what?
A cold gleam flashed at the corner of Bei Feng’s eye as his body suddenly shot into motion! His speed was so fast that the two only saw a blur in front of their eyes. In an instant, the three had already crossed paths.
Bei Feng did not even spare a glance at the two as he continued walking towards Miao Tianhua calmly.
“Putong!”
The two men at the back did not even make a sound as their eyes turned lifeless and they collapsed to the ground simultaneously. In the brief instant when Bei Feng shot past them, he had slashed their throats with the speed of a lightning bolt!
“Are you really going to force the issue to the end?!” Miao Tianhua’s face sunk as he watched Bei Feng walk towards him.
“I’m a person who really dislikes troublesome things. I don’t really want to have trouble knocking at my doors every few days because I let you go,” Bei Feng paused his steps and looked over at the pale Miao Tianhua with a smile.
Miao Tianhua immediately pressed down on the switch of the controller in his pocket. “Very well! Looks like both of us had the same idea. Since you intend to force me into a corner, there’s no reason for me to keep concealing and pretending any longer!”
Miao Tianhua had already prepared adequately beforehand, and arranged for a few snipers to be stationed outside!
It was a measure to guard against any unforeseen developments. Unexpectedly, it actually proved to be useful!
Without any noise or warning, five bullets suddenly appeared within the training hall!
One of them was flying towards Ripper’s head, while the other four were all shooting towards Bei Feng, sealing off all of his escape paths!
While Miao Tianhua was screaming out his threats earlier, Bei Feng had already secretly raised his guard. What was it that gave Miao Tianhua such great confidence?
The moment the bullets appeared within three meters of him, Bei Feng immediately detected it. With an intent, his mental power flowed into the golden flying dagger, pushing it to its limits!
The golden flying dagger shot out of his body, instantly reaching three times the speed of sound! As though it had broken through the confines of space, it appeared instantly before the four bullets!
The specially manufactured steel alloy bullets were like a piece of paper as the golden dagger sliced right through them! There was no resistance at all!
Three times the speed of sound meant a speed of over 1000 m/s! It was like the blade had teleported through space to arrive before each bullet!
Most sniper rifles can fire off rounds whose speed at the point when they left the barrel was around 800 m/s. However, once the bullet had traveled a distance of more than 1,500 meters, it would have lost enough momentum to leave it at subsonic speed.
Although the five bullets were still traveling above the speed of sound, Bei Feng’s flying dagger could whiz about with a speed three times greater than the speed of sound as long as it was within three meters of him!
“Peng!”
“Ding, ding!”
The entire thing happened in less than a second. From this, one could easily imagine the speed of a thought!
Only now did the sound of the sniper rifles along with the sound of the windows breaking arrive at their ears. Following that, was the sound of the bullets clattering to the ground!
Ripper was the only one who had not managed to avoid the shot. However, the bullet only made a hole on the cloak around the robot’s head, and had not even managed to break through its metallic exterior. The only thing the bullet did was to leave a faint scar on its head.
Bei Feng remained standing on the same spot without any injuries at all. As for the rest of the people, they only saw a golden ray flash around Bei Feng for an instant.
The flying dagger was simply too quick! It was so quick that even Evolved Jing masters could not see its trajectory!
“How could you be fine!?” Miao Tianhua’s was gaping with disbelief. The bullets on the ground which had been cleanly sliced in half were especially eye-catching. Still, how could a person’s speed be fast to such an extent?!
Bei Feng secretly heaved a sigh of relief. His head felt a little woozy, and his mental power was somewhat depleted. Earlier, he had poured a large amount of mental power into the golden flying dagger in an instant, which was why he could make it explode with a speed three times greater than the speed of sound!
Such an act was not without cost. Within the span of a single second, Bei Feng felt like he had become a regular person who had endured numerous all-nighters in a row. Right now, he only wanted to find a spot and have a good, long sleep.
