When Chu Feihong's voice, filled with hatred, fell, everyone's expressions became somewhat complicated.
"Feihong, you're being foolish!"
A weak, feeble voice came from Chu Yuntian's mouth. As time went by, the effects of the anesthetic on his body faded somewhat.
Hearing Chu Feihong's words, he couldn't help but muster his strength to speak.
Why did you choose to embark on such a...path of no return?
He knew that the trauma of his childhood had left an indelible shadow on Chu Feihong, and he could understand the resentment and anger in his heart. But there were many ways to solve the problem, yet he chose the most extreme one.
If his biological parents in the afterlife knew, how could they rest in peace?
"The world is inherently unfair; there are always some dark corners where the sunlight cannot penetrate."
"When my parents, despite their many achievements, still died tragically, and I, as the son of a hero, still had no right to live, I realized that everything was fake. The only real thing was that I had to reach the peak that all living beings looked up to, so that they would no longer have the right or the courage to kill me!"
"so……"
At this point, Chu Feihong paused slightly, then gave Chu Yuntian a hollow smile.
“Father, Chu Feihong, whose heart was as white as a sheet of paper, was already dead before you saved me.”
Upon hearing this, Chu Yuntian couldn't help but close his eyes, his old face filled with helplessness and sighs.
He no longer knew how to face Chu Feihong. He knew that no matter what he said, it would be useless, and neither the past nor the present could be undone.
"My older brother asked me what I really wanted to do?"
"Anyway, I'm going to die soon, and I won't be able to say it then, so it won't hurt to tell you. I'm not afraid of death, but the reason I'm not willing to die so soon is because I still have two things to finish."
"The first thing... naturally is to prevent these dogs from dying behind me."
As he spoke, his cold, icy gaze swept over the people hanging from the rafters. A small, gleaming knife appeared in his hand, which he turned gently.
"Chu Feihong, do you dare?"
Realizing that he was about to cut the ropes binding the men, Old Gao immediately roared in anger.
The people hanging there looked down at the sulfuric acid pool below, which was a sinister dark green color and was constantly bubbling. Their eyes were about to burst, and they kept making terrified "oohs" sounds from their throats.
"Dare? What wouldn't I dare?"
"Not only do I dare, but I will also do it right in front of you, to show a high and mighty person like you."
"I may deserve to die, but I'm not afraid to die. I dare to do it and I dare to admit it. These cowardly cowards who dare to do things but not to take responsibility deserve to die more than I do!"
With a sinister sneer, Chu Feihong immediately flicked his wrist, intending to throw the throwing knife in his hand.
The next second, a blur flashed by, and a guard who was very close to him suddenly made a move, delivering a whip kick that, accompanied by the sound of air being cut, struck without hesitation at the hand holding the flamethrower in Chu Feihong's hand.
The incident happened suddenly, and he was extremely fast. Chu Feihong's eyes narrowed sharply, and he couldn't dodge in time. With a sudden jerk of his wrist, the most threatening flamethrower was instantly out of his hand.
The attacker grabbed the gun handle and was about to smash it down on Chu Feihong's head when he saw this. A fierce glint flashed in Chu Feihong's eyes. He slightly turned his head to dodge the fatal blow, letting the heavy blow fall on his chest. He then threw the throwing knife in his hand.
Without any hesitation, the attacker kicked him in the lower abdomen. As Chu Feihong flew backward, he immediately used the momentum to leap up and throw the flamethrower in his hand.
With a "clang," the gun and the throwing knife collided in mid-air and landed simultaneously.
The entire sequence of movements was fluid and seamless, completed in the blink of an eye.
The other guards had barely reacted when they rushed towards him. He immediately kicked the two in front of him over, and with a few tumbles, he was beside Chu Mingcheng.
"Quickly, save them!"
A deep voice rang out, and Chu Mingcheng did not hesitate at all. With a wave of his hand, the Shadow Blade Guards behind him instantly sprang into action, blocking the guards that Chu Feihong had brought, while quickly protecting Chu Yuntian and several old political figures.
"Don't move!"
A chilling voice rang out again. Chu Feihong, who was lying disheveled against a pillar with blood trickling from the corner of his mouth, pulled out a metal gun that was exactly the same as the previous one from his pocket and struggled to stand up.
"If anyone moves again, I'll make sure everyone dies here!"
With his finger on the trigger, he raised the flamethrower high, his cold and ferocious gaze sweeping over the crowd.
"Damn it..."
Looking at the flamethrower in his hand, Chu Mingcheng couldn't help but curse under his breath, then waved his hand to stop everyone from moving.
With his chest heaving, Chu Feihong steadied himself, calmed his breathing, and locked his gloomy gaze on the attacker, pointing the gun directly at him.
"Take off the human skin mask on your face."
He remained expressionless, his voice cold and deep.
For some reason, the person in front of him felt strangely familiar. Moreover, since he could hide so openly by his side, he couldn't possibly be showing his true appearance.
His eyes flickered slightly, and then he reached up and covered his face. With a tearing sound as the mask was removed from his face, a handsome face was exposed to the air.
"South... South wind..."
Upon seeing that handsome face, Chu Yuntian was completely stunned, his mouth slightly agape as he uttered a sound of disbelief.
Chu Feihong's expression froze as he looked at Chu Nanfeng's handsome face. His gaze was deep and his aura was restrained, showing no trace of his usual laziness and casualness.
Considering the astonishing skills he had just displayed, even Chu Feihong, with his composure, found it hard to believe.
