Supremely Talented Tyrant-Chapter 588: To Die Without Closure

Upon hearing this, Liang Jiankun became completely petrified. Why had this happened? His plan should have been flawless. One killing move after another—how had Hao Jian deciphered them?

Even if Wen Hanwen had betrayed him, he was not afraid; even if Xu Rongde and Wen Hanwen had betrayed him together, he had countermeasures ready. But if even that worker had sold him out, then he truly would be in a perilous position.

Liang Jiankun felt as if all his strength had been drained from his body in an instant, turning his face ashen. He couldn't utter a single word.

"Your pride is so laughable in my eyes. I remember warning you just yesterday, yet it seems you took my words for mere wind passing by," Hao Jian said mockingly, staring at Liang Jiankun with an icy gaze.

"Heh heh... Hahahaha..." Liang Jiankun started with a light chuckle, then burst into wild laughter, tears mingling with his mirth. "Hao Jian, I've lost. I've lost disgracefully. Indeed, I am not your equal!"

Then, Liang Jiankun's smile vanished, his face turning iron blue as he said solemnly, "Can you grant me one request before I die?"

Liang Jiankun knew that this time his death was certain, but before dying, there was something he couldn't let go of.

"No. I've said that if you continue to oppose me, I will eradicate the Liang Family!" Hao Jian knew what Liang Jiankun wanted to say and outright refused him.

Liang Jiankun's pupils contracted sharply. His family—that was what he couldn't let go of. He didn't want to bring destruction upon his entire family because of himself.

But what Liang Jiankun hadn't expected was for Hao Jian to reject him so bluntly.

"If I've said something, I will follow through. What I value most is keeping a promise!"

"But once I'm dead, the Liang Family couldn't possibly pose a threat to you!" Liang Jiankun was desperate, his relatives included his parents and siblings. It's okay if he died, but he didn't want to drag them down with him.

"I know, but I just want you to die with your eyes wide open," Hao Jian said casually. Liang Jiankun had caused him so much trouble, how could he possibly let Liang Jiankun die easily?

Liang Jiankun felt his hair stand on end. The look in his eyes seemed to concentrate all the hatred in the universe, transforming it into countless blades that fiercely stabbed into Hao Jian.

"So you're not just satisfied with killing me, you want me to die a restless death?" Liang Jiankun's breath became rapid, his blood rushing to his head, his entire face turning purple and veiny, looking particularly fierce and eerie.

Hao Jian was so ruthlessly evil; even in death, he wanted to make him pass away with regret and pain.

Propping his chin with one hand, Hao Jian pretended to ponder, "I just want to show you my real tactics. By doing so, maybe you will learn to lower your proud head."

"Thud."

Without any nonsense, Liang Jiankun fell to his knees, his eyes nearly bursting with terrifying bloodshot streaks.

"Please, spare my family!" Liang Jiankun spoke with difficulty, each word felt like suffocation.

"I won't," Hao Jian said with a ruffian look.

"You..." Liang Jiankun suddenly realized he had been played. "But you just said, if I were willing to bow, you would spare my family."

"I only said I wanted you to lower your proud head, never indicated I'd spare your family, oh," Hao Jian smirked.

"Hao Jian, I—!@#￥ your mother!"

Liang Jiankun couldn't help but burst out cursing, but halfway through, he spat out blood due to a surge of anger. He had actually been enraged to the point of vomiting blood by Hao Jian.

"Alright, drag this dead dog away, I'm bored of him," Hao Jian said indifferently to the detectives.

The detectives were all dumbfounded. Who was this monster? So fierce—simply with verbal sparring he managed to make Liang Jiankun vomit blood.

Overnight, Hua City was engulfed in tumult once again. Liang Jiankun was arrested by the police, the Liang family's stock market took a hit, they went bankrupt overnight, all their assets were sold off.

And the one who acquired their assets was Hao Jian!

The Four Tycoons of Hua City, one dead, one in prison, one surrendered; apart from one invalid, the other three were all toyed with by Hao Jian at his whim.

From that day forward, Hua City truly fell into Hao Jian's hands.

Following the events with Liang Jiankun, the stocks of Hao Jian Group skyrocketed by 30% overnight, 20% more than what they had lost.

Because of this incident, the global recognition of Shu Ya Group rose manifold. In France, the Champs-Elysées Street Committee approved the review, agreeing to let the Shu Ya brand enter the Champs-Elysées.

The day after passing the review, Shu Ya started their renovation preparation for opening. It took just over a week to commence business, and on the very first day, the jewelry sold out.

Not only in France, but Shu Ya Group's jewelry was selling like hotcakes everywhere, gaining massive attention due to Su Xinya's involvement.

Some consumers bought out of curiosity, while others did so out of admiration or guilt towards Su Xinya.

In just a few days, sales almost reached the annual turnover of Shu Ya Group. Hao Jian had to have the factories rush production overnight, and even then it was not enough to meet the demand. He was forced to outsource orders for other manufacturers to produce.

During this period, Hao Jian could be said to have made a fortune. The shareholders of several companies also benefitted greatly, admiring Hao Jian to the extent of veneration.

.....

"This damned guy, who knew he actually had some brains," Shu Ya stood on the balcony in France, the corners of her mouth turning up in a charming smile.

She had been worried about Hao Jian's ability to handle the situation after the incident with Su Xinya, but fortunately, he had quickly stabilized the situation and even brought qualitative leaps for the group.

"Little Ke, prepare my ticket back to Hua City for tomorrow!"

"Chairman, are we going back tomorrow? But we haven't finished our business here!"

"Let the subordinates handle it, I'm kind of missing that guy."

"..." Little Ke was somewhat speechless. When had the Chairman become so dependant on others? Hadn't she always advocated not to rely on men?

Today, with nothing better to do, Hao Jian roamed around the group's headquarters, as usual, flirting with female employees and shooting the breeze with male colleagues. They used to act natural around Hao Jian before knowing his true identity, but now that they knew, their interactions became much more courteous, which he found quite boring.

"Sure enough, once a person's status changes, the attitude of those around them changes too," Hao Jian said helplessly, shaking his head as he left the building and hit the streets.

Suddenly, he discovered a martial arts gym called "Gourd Brothers."

"Is this even possible?" Hao Jian was flabbergasted, unable to believe that someone would actually name a gym like that. What did they teach inside? Fire-Breathing, Spouting Water, Invisibility, Clairvoyance, and Sharp-Hearing Ear?

But then, he saw a familiar face.

"Big Baby?!"

"Eh, Master?" Big Baby swiftly turned around and was overjoyed to see Hao Jian, hurrying over to greet him.

"How did you guys start running a gym?" Hao Jian asked, puzzled.

"Didn't you tell us to protect the group's safety? So, we thought we'd run a side business during our downtime," Big Baby explained.

Hao Jian felt somewhat embarrassed, realizing he had neglected them after leaving them at the group, indeed burying their talents.

It seemed he truly wasn't fulfilling his duties as a master very well.

"Fine, then let me see what your gym is like," Hao Jian said, proceeding into the gym with Big Baby.

To his surprise, not only were the Gourd Brothers there, but Xiao Qiang was there too.

"The gym was able to start up, thanks largely to the help of Miss Xiao Qiang. It was Miss Xiao Qiang who helped us make the necessary connections and get the business license," Big Baby explained.

"Why didn't you come to me for such matters?" Hao Jian asked.

"Miss Xiao Qiang said you are a person with big responsibilities, and such small matters shouldn't trouble you," Big Baby said with a smile.

Hearing this, Hao Jian was also touched. Xiao Qiang was truly understanding.

"Yo, isn't this Vice Chairman Hao? What brings you to our little place?" Xiao Qiang noticed Hao Jian and came over with a smiling face.

"Master... Master is here!"

"Brothers, Master is here!"

The other six brothers also noticed Hao Jian and rushed over in excitement.

Some of the students looked confused, as they did not recognize Hao Jian.

"I was just wandering around the neighborhood, and I didn't expect to run into you guys here," Hao Jian explained. "By the way, how's your clothing business going?"

"Thanks to your help, the business is doing well," Xiao Qiang said. With Hao Jian's influence, everyone in Hua City knew of her connection with him, so no-one dared to give her trouble anymore.

"My disciples have been well taken care of by you," Hao Jian thanked her.

"Being formal with me? And haven't you helped me out, too?" Xiao Qiang was slightly upset, feeling the more polite they were with each other, the more distant their relationship became.

"Alright, then I won't say thanks," Hao Jian scratched his head, somewhat embarrassed.

"Everyone, come over," Big Baby called to his students, and then said, "This is your Ancestral Master, hurry up and call him Ancestral Master!"

"Ancestral Master? Really? He looks even younger than me," one of the students muttered.

"This young man is our Ancestral Master?" The crowd was perplexed, and none were keen on acknowledging him. Hao Jian appeared too young to seem like someone of great skill. Many amongst them were older than Hao Jian and felt it was unfair to call him master.
