Chapter 995: Chapter 400: Layers of Crisis Chapter 995: Chapter 400: Layers of Crisis Yang Qing was just an ordinary person and had no means to resist when the Mechanical Sparrow attacked. He was quickly killed by Yan Fei. This incident illustrates a simple truth, that no matter how clever a person is or how well they can manipulate others, in the end, it all comes down to their own strength. If their personal strength is inferior, intelligence is useless.

The fine Ice Needles fired by the Mechanical Sparrow were quite extraordinary. They were made from a medicine that could instantaneously paralyze the human heart, frozen into needles that could kill the target without their knowing. This peculiar medicine had never appeared in the world before and was a most unusual by-product of Yang Qi's laboratory during their research process.

In using them, Yan Fei also took an unconventional approach, transforming the medicine into Ice Needles and launching them. Once an Ice Needle penetrated the human body, it would immediately melt due to body temperature, enter the bloodstream, and quickly take effect. For this reason, Yang Qing lost his ability to move in such a short span of time, leading to the car crash.

The Ice Needle was as thin as cow's hair; and even if it entered the body, the wound was incredibly small, even smaller than a mosquito bite, going unnoticed without close attention. Once the Ice Needle melted, it disappeared without a trace. And the person attacked would not realize that they had been assaulted, feeling at most a sudden itch on the skin, not knowing that a lethal drug had entered their body. The attack was so stealthy that even the gods would be unaware, killing silently.

In fact, Yan Fei had many ways to kill Yang Qing, such as the Drone hovering above. Yan Fei could simply use the Drone to attack, and there would be no need to launch Missiles — the 30-millimeter Naval Cannon was enough to reduce Yang Qing to pieces. However, attacking Yang Qing with the Drone would create a big scene and easily reveal Yan Fei's involvement. Yan Fei did not wish to blow the matter out of proportion yet, which is why he did not choose a showy method but instead deployed the Mechanical Sparrow to quietly kill his target.

This peculiar medicine could cause death in a very short period, and correspondingly, its metabolism was also rapid. Within just two hours, it would completely metabolize in the human body, turning into other common substances found within, leaving no trace. If an autopsy were performed on Yang Qing, it would only show that he died of cardiac paralysis, without revealing any other issues.

That is why Yan Fei chose to attack when Yang Qing was driving on the mountain Highway. Thus, as Yang Qing's heart began to paralyze, he would lose control of the car and crash into the deep valley. Yan Fei's plan went very smoothly, as not only did Yang Qing's car fall into the valley, but it also burst into flames, burning Yang Qing to a crisp.

Thanks to the fire, the few pieces of evidence on Yang Qing that might have been discovered were completely destroyed. Now, no matter who conducted the investigation, they would not find Yan Fei's interference; they would only think that Yang Qing's death was an accidental traffic incident.

Yang Qing was extremely intelligent and adept at manipulating people's hearts. He harbored a deep hatred for Yan Fei and targeted him at every turn. Judging by the destructive power he had shown before, Yang Qing's threat to Yan Fei was not less than that of a God-level expert. Fortunately, Yan Fei learned of Yang Qing's conspiracy in advance and acted promptly to eliminate Yang Qing, nipping the conspiracy in the bud. Otherwise, with such a formidable enemy scheming against him from the shadows, Yan Fei probably would not be able to sleep peacefully.

The alliances Yang Qing formed in secret served as a wake-up call for Yan Fei, indicating that Yang Liu had become a problem that needed to be dealt with. After a period of investigation by the Artificial Intelligence “Dream,” Yan Fei had obtained evidence of Yang Liu's involvement in activities against him and Dream Island.

Yang Liu once sought to take over Yan Fei's Dream Technology and colluded with the Assassin Sect to threaten Yan Fei into transferring the company. However, Yan Fei's strong counterattack led to Yang Liu's defeat at the final moment, turning him into a sworn enemy. Back then, Yan Fei intended to kill Yang Liu, but considering the actual situation within China, he did not act domestically and had been waiting. As soon as Yang Liu left the country, regardless of which country he went to, Yan Fei would eliminate him immediately.

However, Yang Liu was cunning and suspicious. After realizing the danger when the Destroyers took on Yan Fei's Bounty Task and wiped out the Assassin Sect, he changed his usual habits. For many years, he did not travel abroad, staying within China instead, which deprived Yan Fei of the opportunity to kill him.

Similar to Yang Qing, Yang Liu also suspected that his son, Yang Song, had been killed by Yan Fei. Facing the dominant Yan Fei, Yang Liu did not have many good options but continued to bide his time. However, whenever Dream Island and Yan Fei encountered trouble, Yang Liu would manipulate from the shadows, stirring up self-media and other channels to launch vicious attacks on Dream Island and Yan Fei, attempting to damage their public image and affect the sales of Dream Island's products. This was also the reason why crises faced by Dream Island and Yan Fei often started with adverse news coming from within China.

Yan Fei could tolerate these actions, as they did not cause him any serious harm. But what he could not endure was Yang Liu's direct involvement in the planning of the Yang Qi incident.

Yang Qi was once sent by his Research Institute to The United States of America for academic exchanges. Then Yang Qi was falsely accused by the US side of being a KB-affiliated bomber. The deputy director of that Research Institute, who led the team, came forward immediately to testify that Yang Qi had always been dissatisfied with society and was a potential KB member, which is why he ended up making bombs for the attack. Without any evidence, and before the state reached a conclusion, the Research Institute in Beijing announced that Yang Qi was a KB member and expelled him.
