Invincibility Begins with a Super Fairy Manny

Chapter 495: Chapter 495: With a Ferocious Tiger in Heart, Gently Smelling the Rose (3rd Update)

Tian Bojun looked at Xue An with eyes filled with indescribable fear.

From Xue An’s expression, he could not discern the slightest hint of joy or anger, only unassailable authority.

The sensation was as if a supreme emperor was passing judgment on him.

“What… what else do you want? I’ll just return all the money to the company if I have to!” Tian Bojun said with a quivering voice.

“Let me guess, you must have a cell phone on call in your pocket, don’t you? Are you planning to give these recordings to someone after you get out of here?” Xue An said calmly.

Tian Bojun’s body shook violently, his eyes wide with disbelief as he looked at Xue An, “You… how…”

“How did I know? It’s not just that—I also know exactly what you’re thinking. Are you planning to use these recordings as evidence to make trouble for Tianyuan, or should I say, to create problems for Qiao Le who brought you on board?”

Upon hearing Xue An’s words, Qiao Le was taken aback, and then a fierce killing intent surfaced on his face as he angrily roared, “Tian Bojun, you are indeed an ungrateful wolf!”

At this point, Tian Bojun had completely given up and burst into maniacal laughter.

“So what if I am? I’ll have you know that I have been secretly calling and all your words and actions have been transmitted already!”

“And I don’t believe you would dare to kill me in front of all these people! If the boss of the Tianyuan kills someone in public, can you imagine the uproar it would cause internationally if the news gets out? Hahaha…”

The laughter came to an abrupt halt.

Tian Bojun clasped his neck tightly with both hands, yet still unable to stop the blood that spurted from between his fingers.

Looking at Xue An in disbelief, he seemed unable to comprehend that Xue An would actually dare to kill him.

But Xue An merely said indifferently, “Noisy!”

Hoarse gurgling noises came from Tian Bojun’s throat, the last bit of air escaping through his severed windpipe.

The sound echoed in the deadly silent hall, sending shivers down the spines of many with guilty consciences.

Xue An took the phone still lit with the screen on from Tian Bojun’s chest, put it to his ear, and spoke softly, “No matter who you are, if you dare oppose Tianyuan, I wouldn’t mind sending you all to hell.”

After that, Xue An hung up the phone and smiled faintly at Tian Bojun.

“You thought well, but you missed one thing—in the face of absolute power, what others think is worthless.”

On hearing these words, a look of utter despair appeared in Tian Bojun’s eyes.

If he had a choice, he would never have opposed this man.

But regret was now too late.

His limbs thrashed involuntarily for a moment, and the light in his eyes gradually faded until he was gone.

No one dared to speak.

The hall was silent as a grave.

A faint smell of urine began to spread.

It was Tian Bohan who had been scared to the point of wetting himself by the scene that had just unfolded.

Xue An looked up at him and smiled slightly, yet before he could speak,

Tian Bohan was already kowtowing franticly, weeping with snot and tears, “Mr. Xue, spare my life, please! It was all Tian Bojun’s doing—I was just an underling, I beg you to forgive me!”

“By rights, I should spare you!” Xue An said indifferently.

Tian Bohan let out a sigh of relief, but at that moment, he felt a chill on his neck, and then his whole body became light. His head rolled so far away, rolling to the feet of Xue An, where he saw a trace of a smile on Xue An’s face before he plunged into eternal darkness.

“Yet those who abet tyranny often earn more hatred than the principal offenders, for they will always cry coercion when disaster strikes, but before such times, they’re always the most sycophantic and take pride in it,” Xue An’s calm voice echoed through the hall.

Many people shuddered involuntarily and lowered their heads.

Only Yuan Mengying trembled all over, recalling how proudly Tian Bohan had boasted about how formidable his cousin was.

This mysterious and powerful man… was indeed right!

It was at this time that Xue An glanced at Zhao Xuehui and the others with varying expressions and said indifferently, “Come back to the office with me!”

Having said that, he led his family out first.

Zhao Xuehui and the others looked at each other, a bitter smile appearing on their faces, and then they quickly followed out of the hall.

The bodies and blood were soon cleaned up.

Apart from a faint scent of blood that lingered, one would hardly think that two people had just died here.

The crowd in the hall only began to slowly recover from their shock at this point.

“Holy shit, that was badass, killing two people just like that. Tian Bojun really had it coming!” someone exclaimed.

“Who is this guy? How is he so powerful and domineering? I saw the directors not even daring to breathe heavily in front of him,” another person said in awe.

Some veteran employees of Tianyuan Company who had been there from the beginning spoke with reverence.

“Of course the directors dare not disrespect this man, because to put it plainly, he’s the one who built Tianyuan from the ground up! He just let them manage it because he had a good relationship with the directors,” they explained.

Hisss.

At these words, everyone drew in a sharp breath.

A few people with more knowledge began to show a look of extreme awe on their faces.

“This person is none other than…”

A few veteran employees nodded.

“That’s right! It’s Mr. Xue, the one who shook Zhongdu with a wedding!”

For these ordinary people, feats like Xue An’s annihilation of the Church of Light were beyond their reach.

But the memory of that wedding, which had once shaken half of Hua country, was still fresh in their minds.

After a long silence.

“Heh, daring to offend Mr. Xue, that Tian Bojun truly deserved to die!” someone said with a cold laugh.

Meanwhile, in the office at the top floor.

Xue An sat behind the broad desk, fingers slowly tapping on the surface, his face expressionless.

Zhao Xuehui hesitated to speak several times, but in the end could only let out a helpless sigh.

Gao Shengnan and Shu Liu, along with others, also didn’t dare to speak.

After a while, Qiao Le, who had been keeping his head down, stepped forward and said with a face full of shame, “Big Brother, this is all my fault. If I hadn’t failed to see through Tian Bojun’s wild ambition, all this wouldn’t have happened. I am ready to accept punishment, or even if you decide to fire me, that’s okay.”

Xue An silently looked at Qiao Le, and after a while, he said indifferently, “Third Brother, do you understand where you really went wrong?”

“It’s not that you misjudged someone; it’s your leniency towards a vicious person.”

“Everyone can make a mistake in judgment, but the key is whether you have the courage to amputate on realizing the mistake.”

“Tian Bojun deserved to die, and you shouldn’t have harbored any kindness towards him.”

“Because in this world, being kind-hearted towards bad people is in fact cruelty towards good people.”

“Do you understand all this?”

With every word Xue An said, Qiao Le trembled.

By the end, his face was as pale as paper, with cold sweat on his forehead.

“Big Brother, I understand!” he affirmed.

Xue An smiled faintly, “The business world is like a battleground. If you want to survive, and survive better than others, you must have the heart of a fierce tiger and yet the sensitivity to smell the roses.”

All, including Zhao Xuehui, began to show looks of sudden realization on their faces.

For them, this incident was a painful transformation.

But only through transformation can one break out of the chrysalis and become a butterfly.
