However, Ji Feng merely shook his head as he laughed, "I don't think so. I don't think that your words are boastful. It's better to say something grandiose instead."

The wry smile on He Hong's face became even wider as he heard this. He shook his head and said, "If the gap between us is too big, then those bold words will be filled with nonsense!"

He Hui was very confident at first. Although he didn't dare to say that he would win, he knew that this time, his chances of winning were high because what the warriors had done was unfavorable to the hearts of the people.

It was also because of this that He Hui wanted to use public opinion to pressure the warriors.

However, He Hui did not expect that the public reaction would be so intense. He had directed the media to release reports that were like a fuse, igniting the gunpowder barrel in an instant.

Moreover, if he were to continue like this, it was very likely that there would be serious consequences. He might be fine by himself, but the citizens who overreacted would be in for a lot of trouble.

Thus, after much deliberation, He Hui finally made up his mind to change the plan. To put it more harshly, he was going to slap himself in the face!

This way, it could ease the anger of a portion of the people. However, the pressure of public opinion that he created before would be greatly reduced. When that time came, not only would he not be able to put pressure on the martial artists, but the martial artists would even mock him.

He might even become a laughing stock in the capital!

But He Hong had no other choice!

He could not base his success on sacrificing those innocent people, so he had no choice but to give up.

However, when Ji Feng heard this, he shook his head and smiled, "Brother Hong, I think that you are too pessimistic."

"Heh heh ~ ~"

"Then what do you mean …?"

Ji Feng didn't reply immediately. Instead, he sat on the sofa, carefully considering his options. At the same time, the smile on his face also disappeared as his fingers tapped on the tea table, one by one.

He Hongwei seemed to have realized something as his countenance turned solemn. He stared at Ji Feng as a hint of antic.i.p.ation flashed in his eyes.

He knew that Ji Feng was seriously not thinking about how to admit defeat to the martial arts family, nor was he thinking about how to slap his own face in the newspapers and other media!

In that case, there was only one thing for Ji Feng to consider — he was considering how to resolve the crisis before him.

Thinking about how Ji Feng had never shown any signs of nervousness from the very beginning, He Hui suddenly realized that Ji Feng might have already thought of a way to deal with the situation.

"Shua ~!"

All of a sudden, a light flashed in Ji Feng's eyes, and He Hui asked, "How is it?"

Ji Feng muttered to himself for a moment and asked, "Brother Hong, what do you think? If there really is a public opinion storm in the whole country, would the Wu family really dare to do that? "

"Ha ~ ~!"

This was because the higher one's position was, the more intense the compet.i.tion would be. Moreover, the process of ascending to the high position would be more dangerous, and if one did not have sufficient means and a vicious wrist, then one would have already become a stepping stone for others.

As for the military families, that was even more so.

Since ancient times, there had been people who did not show mercy to their troops and did not control their wealth. Those who were soft-hearted would not be able to lead a good army.

If you could carve out a path of blood from the encirclement and gain power, then the vast majority of people would respect you, because that was gained through your own strength and methods. Soldiers respected the strong the most.

Whether it was the military or the political scene, they were actually linked in many ways.

However, the cruelty of a martial artist was different. Wu Zhizhong was a typical example.

At the very least, an average person would never do something like splas.h.i.+ng dirty water on their own brother to wash it away.

Perhaps Wu Zhizhong could be considered a formidable person, then his actions were understandable. However, his viciousness was vividly displayed through this series of events.

In the face of chaos, even the upper echelons of the Wu Clan could only agree to be ruthless.

This was what He Hui was most worried about.

"But at that time, I feel that the Wu Clan would not dare to do so!" Ji Feng muttered to himself.

"What do you mean?" He Hui asked, "What do you think is the basis for this?"

Ji Feng said in a low voice, "You must know this better than anyone. Everyone wants to see the social unrest, so even though many forces are fighting for power and power, they rarely use the people. Except for those who have ill intentions. "I don't believe that the Wu Family would dare to defy the heaven's will!"

"Then what if the Wu Clan really dares to do it?" He Hong frowned.

He said, "Don't forget, even if the other families were to oppose it, the Wu family could sacrifice someone to be the scapegoat. If... "If they were able to take advantage of this opportunity to kill us both, they might be willing to let even an arm of the Wu Clan go …"

"Heh …" Ji Feng immediately smiled.

"Don't laugh! This is not because I am arrogant, nor is it because I have high expectations for myself. You should understand that what I am saying is reasonable! " He Hong said.

"Ugh!"

Ji Feng smiled as he nodded his head, "I know."

In actuality, if they were in his shoes, they wouldn't have missed the chance to beat him.

Not to mention that He Hong was the He Clan's third generation leader, the future hope of the He Clan. If the Wu Clan could defeat him, then even if they had to pay a certain price, it would be worth it.

With He Hui's downfall, it would be very difficult for the He family to find another capable successor in the coming decades. When that happened, the He family might decline, but the Wu family could rise quickly in power and power …

However, Ji Feng only shook his head and smiled, "The Wu Clan doesn't have that capability!"

"Could it be that your family will just watch helplessly as you are suppressed by the Wu Clan?" Ji Feng asked.

Ji Feng shook his head and said solemnly: "Brother Feng, I think you are in a mess now. First of all, according to what you said, the popular discussion is only in Beijing. We all know that the people in Beijing are most concerned about politics. As for how the citizens from other places would react to this, we do not know. It is too early to draw a conclusion now. "How should I put it, I come from the bottom, so I should have a say in this …"

Ji Feng paused, and continued, "Actually, for many citizens, even if they knew that someone sold out the country's interests, they would at most curse twice, because for many people, the most important thing is to earn a living. For people, national affairs are too far away from them, so a storm of public opinion like what you said is unlikely to happen!"

"And, even if we are wrong, if the Wu family wants to kill us, will the Ji family and the He family do nothing but watch us fall?" Ji Feng shook his head and smiled.

It was no longer the situation where a powerful individual dominated everything. At present, no clan would dare to challenge multiple opponents, two lines of combat, or even multiple lines of combat, unless they wanted to die!

Ji Feng was sure that the Wu Clan did not dare to do the same!
