HADES, THE URBAN LEGEND - Chapter 629 - 632: Regret Later
Chapter 629: Chapter 632: Regret Later
“What’s this? Now that you know who I am, you want to kneel?” Mei Feng sneered.
Mei Feng had been in the entertainment industry for many years, managing numerous top-tier celebrities. She was considered one of the most influential agents in the Asian entertainment scene and held the position of vice president at an entertainment company, giving her a prestigious status.
If it weren’t for Yang Lie’s significant background, she wouldn’t have decided to sign a newcomer like Hui Lin so quickly, even with Christine’s endorsement. Mei Feng had every reason to be arrogant and, feeling supported by the Yang family, she held a commanding presence, dismissing the newly established Yulei Entertainment as inconsequential.
While Yulei International Group was indeed flourishing, Mei Feng believed she was the real power in the entertainment world. In her view, as long as Hui Lin wanted to stay in the industry, no one would dare oppose her.
In reality, if it weren’t for Yang Lie’s aggressive intervention, all of Hui Lin’s debut matters would have been handled entirely by Yulei Entertainment. The company’s establishment was largely due to Lin Ruoxi wanting to provide Hui Lin with a good platform to develop her singing career, so there was no need to hire an external agent.
However, Yulei International was just a company. For a young master like Yang Lie with official and military backgrounds, it was all too easy to interfere.
Hui Lin, despite disliking Yang Lie, had a gentle nature and little social experience. Yunmiao Shitai, who could protect her in Yandu, couldn’t intervene in such detailed matters. Blocking Yang Lie’s approach didn’t align with the Lin family’s current stance either.
Once Mei Feng took over as Hui Lin’s agent, she cut off many of Hui Lin’s contacts, which meant that even people like Yang Chen were unaware that Hui Lin had a new agent.
Now, facing the arrogant female agent, Yang Chen merely smiled brightly. “You said earlier you wanted to send me to jail, so I’m giving you a chance.”
Mei Feng glared at Yang Chen, evidently puzzled by his intentions. However, the next moment, she had no time to think.
Without warning, Yang Chen’s left hand shot up like a steel clamp, grabbing Mei Feng by the throat!
Mei Feng’s eyes widened in shock as her body lifted off the ground!
“Ah… urgh—”
Mei Feng gurgled, unable to speak, her legs kicking ineffectively as her face turned red, struggling to breathe.
“Director Yang! Please don’t resort to violence!”
“Brother Yang!”
Zhuang Feng and Hui Lin were both anxious. Although Mei Feng was unpleasant, she was a significant figure in the entertainment industry. If something happened to her at Yulei Entertainment, it would undoubtedly cause an uproar!
Yang Lie, however, watched with amusement, as if daring Yang Chen to actually take action.
Ignoring the surrounding pleas, Yang Chen walked towards the window of the conference room, expressionless as he looked outside.
They were on the fortieth floor of the building, and looking down, the cars below resembled matchboxes scurrying about, while the street was empty.
Mei Feng was nearly unconscious, her eyes rolling back as her body went limp.
Without much hesitation, Yang Chen swung Mei Feng like a wrecking ball, hurling her towards the glass window!
“Crash!”
The glass and the alloy frame couldn’t withstand the force of Yang Chen’s throw, shattering into pieces. The sharp debris, along with Mei Feng’s body, plummeted downwards!
“Ah!”
“She’s dead!”
The other female executives in the conference room screamed, faces pale with fear as they rushed out, not daring to stay a moment longer.
Zhuang Feng was also stunned. He had thought Yang Chen would only scare Mei Feng but never expected him to actually kill her in such a terrifying manner!
From the fortieth floor, Mei Feng’s body had smashed through the tempered glass and guardrail, falling to the concrete below. It would be a miracle if she wasn’t reduced to a pulp!
Downstairs, in a parking lot beneath the building, Tian Long and Ye Zi were enjoying their afternoon snacks inside an Infiniti SUV. They had followed Yang Chen to this location but didn’t go upstairs, as their task was to monitor Yang Chen’s movements, not to stay glued to him, which might irritate him—something they wanted to avoid.
They assumed Yang Chen was simply meeting Hui Lin at Yulei Entertainment and didn’t foresee any issues. However, just as they were taking their first few bites, they witnessed a woman dressed in black plummet from above.
“Bang!”
A dull thud echoed, followed by a splatter of blood!
The two sat in stunned silence for a long moment before Ye Zi trembled, “Tian Long, how could this happen?”
Tian Long sighed deeply, realizing the gravity of the situation. “It’s over. General Cai told us to ensure Yang Chen didn’t cause a major incident in Yandu. Now, how are we supposed to face him?” FOlloow 𝒏ewest stories at n𝒐(v)el/bi/n(.)com
Back in the conference room, Zhuang Feng was nearly paralyzed with fear, regretting his decision to work at Yulei Entertainment. What kind of company had such a terrifying individual as a superior?
Although Hui Lin was initially shocked, she wasn’t overly saddened by Mei Feng’s death. To her, Mei Feng’s provocation had naturally led to her demise at Yang Chen’s hands, though it did bring about certain troubles that filled her with worry.
“Clap, clap, clap—”
Suddenly, Yang Lie stood up, clapping with a laugh. “Good, good, what boldness! Well done!”
Despite being Mei Feng’s employer, Yang Lie showed no signs of dissatisfaction. Instead, he appeared quite pleased, as if he had expected this outcome.
Yang Chen, his tone flat, replied, “Do you think that by doing this, you can provoke Hongmeng to fight me and defeat me? Maybe your stupid plan is feasible, but if you also wish to die, I don’t mind sending you on your way now.”
It was evident that Mei Feng was just a foolish pawn, unknowingly used by Yang Lie to enrage Yang Chen, inciting a killing spree in Yandu.
Yang Lie’s twisted smile grew as he laughed maniacally, “You want me dead? Fine! Do it! You’re right; I want Hongmeng to eliminate you! Do you think you’re invincible? Do you think you’re safe just because some old guys are protecting you? I won’t let you have peace! Come on, kill me! Kill the direct descendant of the Yang family and see if Hongmeng stays idle!”
“As you wish,” Yang Chen said, appearing instantly in front of Yang Lie.
Though Yang Lie had the aid of Kunlun’s elixirs and exceptional talent, he was still young and had not yet reached the innate realm like Li Dun.
As Yang Chen approached, Yang Lie felt an overwhelming pressure that suffocated him. He tried to stand firm, but the space around him felt like a shrinking plastic bottle, compressing him until he couldn’t stretch out his limbs!
Veins bulged on Yang Lie’s forehead, and his blood vessels seemed ready to burst, yet he could only collapse in defeat!
Yang Lie’s face twisted in reluctant fear as he realized Yang Chen had grown even stronger. What kind of monster was he?
Hui Lin, possessing some martial skills herself, could sense the extraordinary level of Yang Chen’s cultivation, which left her in awe.
“In my eyes, you’re no different from trash,” Yang Chen said softly, looking down at the kneeling Yang Lie. “I don’t believe you came up with this plan to provoke Hongmeng yourself because you’re not smart enough to understand Hongmeng. Besides, the Yang family wouldn’t fund Hui Lin’s concert. Someone must be behind this.”
Yang Lie raised his head with difficulty, sneering through his trembling voice, “So what if there is? I’m not the only one who wants you dead, but I won’t tell you who they are.”
Yang Chen smirked, “I don’t need you to tell me. Many people have tried to kill me, but I’m still here, while they aren’t. You don’t need to say anything; I’ll just send you off.”
Seeing Yang Chen about to act, Hui Lin couldn’t hold back and shouted, “Brother Yang! Stop!”
Her plea worked, making Yang Chen pause and look at her.
“Brother Yang, if you kill Yang Lie, Aunt Xuehua will be heartbroken. After all, you are blood brothers,” Hui Lin said, her fear evident, yet she felt compelled to stop him. If Yang Chen killed Yang Lie, it would cause immense grief for Guo Xuehua, and no one in the family would be happy. As the person involved, she would regret it deeply.
