The bodyguard captain hadn't even registered what happened before a figure materialized before him. Startled, he instinctively tried to retreat.
Mu Feng offered no such opportunity. He grasped the captain by the neck and effortlessly lifted him into the air.
"You're too weak. Even if all of you attacked me together, you wouldn't last more than a few seconds. Speak, why are you people here?"
The pressure on his hand tightened. The bodyguard captain felt his neck constricted by an iron grip, his eyes wide with terror. The imminent threat of death caused his pupils to contract violently. He struggled to pry Mu Feng's hand open, but it was utterly useless.
The other bodyguards finally reacted, drawing daggers from their persons without hesitation and lunging at Mu Feng. The suddenness of the assault sent many employees in the vicinity into gasps of shock. They were actually going to kill someone.
However, in the very next second, the company's assigned security personnel moved in unison. In an instant, all the bodyguards were subdued and thrown to the ground. They hadn't intervened earlier because Mu Feng had previously instructed them to only reveal their strength if key company personnel were in mortal danger or if Su Nianxue was threatened.
Mu Feng's smile widened. "Take them all down and get them to talk."
The bodyguards were quickly silenced by the company security guards and dragged to the internal security room. Only the bodyguard captain was carelessly tossed to the ground by Mu Feng.
The captain gasped for air, his eyes filled with disbelief. A tempest of shock raged within him; the events unfolding before him completely overturned his understanding of reality. Those security guards, who had shown no ability to resist earlier, had now acted with brutal swiftness. The men he brought were no ordinary individuals. While not powerful martial artists, they had at least reached the introductory level.
"You chose the wrong opponent, and you shouldn't have acted so outrageously within our company. I gave you a chance to speak, but you refused. However, it's fine, I'm too lazy to extract any information from your mouth now. You can go find your boss directly. I'll personally escort you there!"
With that, Mu Feng strode forward. Two security guards stepped up and restrained the bodyguard captain. The captain struggled desperately, but he found the two men holding him possessed of terrifying strength. No matter how much he thrashed, their grips were like iron clamps. His face changed completely, his expression now laced with fear.
"Who exactly are you people? They can't possibly be ordinary security guards; their strength is too great. Men like them, even as bodyguards, would be the absolute top tier."
"Let me go, you..."
His words were cut short as one of the security guards delivered a sharp blow to the back of his head, knocking him unconscious. Mu Feng turned back, and the security guard offered an embarrassed explanation, "Young Master, I used a bit too much force. I didn't expect this guy to be so frail."
"It's fine, as long as he's not dead," Mu Feng replied with a slight smile, leading the group into the elevator.
Meanwhile, the surrounding employees stared with wide eyes, their gazes filled with stunned disbelief. They knew Mu Feng was powerful and would never let anyone disrupt the company. But they had never imagined that their own security guards could be so formidable. It was only after the elevator doors closed that they remembered it was almost time to clock in and rushed to do so. However, the incident quickly became the talk of the company.
Mu Feng took the elevator directly to the top floor. There, he saw a red palm print on the little secretary's face, with tears streaming down her cheeks. A surge of fury instantly ignited within him. Seeing Mu Feng, the little secretary's tears began to fall like a broken string of pearls.
"Brother Feng, you always told me to tell you if anyone bullied me. Someone hit me just now!"
Mu Feng walked over, gently stroking her dark, silky hair, a smile appearing on his face. "I'll get revenge for you now."
He then approached the office door and overheard voices from within. Inside the office, besides Su Nianxue, was a man in his forties. Dressed in black casual wear, he sat casually on the sofa, his hand resting on the edge, revealing a timepiece worth at least millions. Even a button on his sleeve was made of jade. Every luxury item on him was worth at least hundreds of thousands. His gaze was filled with mockery as he looked at Su Nianxue, as if appraising his prey.
"Su Nianxue, let me tell you, no one can help you but me. And if you don't submit, there's only one outcome: becoming my plaything. Once I'm tired of you, I'll send you overseas to serve those 'darkies.' Perhaps you'll even come to like it, after all, a 'darkie's' tool will surely show you what..."
Su Nianxue's face was as cold as frost, her eyes flashing with anger. "Shut up. Get out immediately, or face the consequences!"
"Hahaha..." The man roared with laughter, his eyes filled with amusement. "I want to see what kind of consequences you can bring me! I'm not afraid to tell you that your company's employees can't even get through the front door. I only needed to arrange for a few subordinates to block the entrance, and they were all stopped. So, let me tell you, I wouldn't dare do this without my backing. No one can stop what Yao Baichuan wants to do. Perhaps you don't know the power of our family, but you must have heard of the skincare product competing with yours. While it doesn't have the powerful effects of your products, our brand has always been well-established. Your company's reputation recently has been smeared by me; baseless rumors, when spread enough, become the truth. And you can do nothing about me! Even if you find those responsible, there's no connection to my Yao family, and it's only a superficial fix. For me to mess with you is simpler than crushing an ant. Now, I've lost my patience with you."
