"That's a good question! I was just about to ask you." Ye Tianfan snorted coldly, casting a murderous glance at the two men in black.
In an instant, an immense sense of pressure surged forth. The two men in black instinctively stepped back, wanting to distance themselves from Ye Tianfan. But at that moment, Ye Tianfan's figure moved like a specter, close to the two men, giving them no chance to increase the distance between them.
Ye Tianfan knew they were trying to draw their guns!
They relied on the protection of liquid metal armor beneath their skin. If they managed to distance themselves and suppress him with firepower, they could gain the upper hand. Perhaps they wouldn't be able to kill Ye Tianfan this way, but they could certainly harm Yan Feishuang, giving themselves a chance to escape.
"Trying to distance yourself?" Ye Tianfan sneered, his voice low. "Do you have that ability?"
Before he finished speaking, the distance between Ye Tianfan and the two men in black shrank instantaneously, followed by a powerful surge of profound energy released from Ye Tianfan's palm.
"Pff..."
One of the men in black was instantly knocked flying, his swaying body tracing an arc through the air, blood spraying from his mouth onto the ceiling before he crashed heavily to the ground.
Ye Tianfan did not hold back at all with this strike; it was meant to be lethal. The man in black fell without even a chance to struggle, dying instantly.
Watching his companion killed without any chance to resist, the remaining man in black broke out in a cold sweat on his forehead.
The disparity!
The disparity like heaven and earth!
He was no match for Ye Tianfan!
If Ye Tianfan wanted him dead, it was a matter of a split second.
The man in black felt despair in his heart. For the first time, he realized how fragile human life was, how easily it could be extinguished. Even with the protection of liquid metal armor, killing them was as simple for Ye Tianfan as squashing an ant.
"Thud..."
The man's knees buckled, and he fell to the ground.
"I think now we can have a little chat?" Ye Tianfan raised an eyebrow, casually pulling a chair to sit in front of the man in black.
Ye Tianfan sat, and the man in black knelt. They faced each other within a meter's distance.
"What do you want to know?"
The man in black avoided Ye Tianfan's gaze. He dared not meet Ye Tianfan's eyes, as those eyes chilled him to the bone like the devil's in hell, devoid of any warmth.
"Where is the force behind Tianyu Group hidden?"
Ye Tianfan leaned back in the chair in a lazy posture, as the man in black was not worth his direct attention.
"I don't know."
The man in black answered briskly enough.
Ye Tianfan snorted coldly, saying, "Do you know what those few words mean when you say them?"
Ye Tianfan's voice was cold, like his gaze, without any trace of human warmth, as if he wasn't speaking to a living person but rather communicating with lifeless remains.
Even Yan Feishuang, standing beside Ye Tianfan, couldn't help but shudder. She could not imagine how terrifying Ye Tianfan could become when he was cold and grim.
"Wha...what do they mean?" the man in black trembled as he asked.
Ye Tianfan suddenly straightened up, a sharp glint flashing in his eyes as his piercing gaze swept toward the man's eyes, speaking firmly, "It means you are worthless now, like him."
Ye Tianfan raised his hand, pointing to the other man's corpse.
"The reason you're still alive is because you have living value to me. But now, I think you should go down to greet your buddy, so you'll have company on the Yellow Springs Road."
As he spoke, Ye Tianfan was already rising from the chair, the pressure doubling, and the man in black sweated profusely.
"I... I'm just doing work for someone else... Please, spare me."
"Who are you working for?" Ye Tianfan glanced at him.
"Old...Old K."
The man in black responded quickly, without any hesitation.
Ye Tianfan's brows knitted tightly, then glanced at Yan Feishuang beside him, and a faintly helpless smile tugged at his lips. "It's this Old K again."
Yan Feishuang shrugged helplessly.
Looking at Yan Feishuang, Ye Tianfan said, "If I'm guessing right, he doesn't even know who Old K is."
"Then he has no value," Yan Feishuang smiled dazzlingly but with extreme danger.
Watching Ye Tianfan and Yan Feishuang's duet in words, the man in black was almost terrified out of his wits because Ye Tianfan was right; he didn't know who Old K really was.
This meant he couldn't provide useful information to Ye Tianfan, leaving only one outcome.
"Fei Shuang, do you think corpse-dissolving water can melt liquid metal armor?" Ye Tianfan boldly conjectured.
"Not sure, we could try it," Yan Feishuang cooperated elegantly, pulling a small porcelain bottle from her pocket and shaking it in front of the man in black.
At that moment, the man in black's face changed drastically. He certainly understood what corpse-dissolving water was, but to use it on himself would be unbearable.
"Let... let me go, please... I'm begging you."
The man in black completely broke down inside. Ye Tianfan then slowly squatted down, his eyes fixed on the man in black, his voice cold: "I'll ask you one last question. Who is your handler? If you still say you don't know, I'll truly admire you as a man, and next year on this day I'll definitely burn incense at your grave."
The man's gaze was vacant as he instinctively replied, "It's Boss Qian. He's my handler."
"Where is he?" Ye Tianfan pressed on.
The man froze, his face showing horror, looking desperately at Ye Tianfan, speaking with a crying tone, "I... I... I don't know!"
The man in black gripped his hair forcefully, the pressure Ye Tianfan imposed reaching its peak, nearly breaking his spirit.
"I... damn well don't know."
"I don't know, I really don't know."
"Hahaha, just kill me, kill me, kill me, please?"
Seeing the man in black's near mental collapse, Yan Feishuang frowned tightly. She looked at Ye Tianfan, hardly believing a person could be driven to madness merely through sheer presence.
She even felt a sense of relief.
Relief that she was Ye Tianfan's friend, and not his enemy.
Relief that she was standing by Ye Tianfan's side, and not kneeling as that man in black did.
"Hey..."
Ye Tianfan sighed softly, casting a final glance at the man in black, his eyes devoid of compassion. He knew that if he were the one kneeling, the man would show no mercy. Everyone understood that kindness to the enemy was cruelty to oneself.
Finally, Ye Tianfan simply said flatly, "Forget it, he really doesn't know." Then he rose and left the villa.
