"You've made enemies of them?" Zheng Yichen cleared the way.
Ahn Ke nodded, "Some might consider themselves wronged by me. Many research materials they were eyeing have been snatched away by me, and others have been utterly outmatched by the outcomes of my work, beaten miserably in some conflicts."
"So they want to kill you, instead of completely surpassing you technically?"
"Isn't that how competition among peers goes? Very few have the ambition to win technically; a simpler way to prevail is to physically eliminate those who cannot compete."
Ah, Zheng Yichen was at a loss for words. Ahn Ke continued, "Last night at North Lake, I made some additional discoveries. In order to obtain those things, the Ahn family and other families fought both in writing and force. Due to lack of sleep, my mood was rather poor, and I ended up being quite brutal."
"Now it's my turn to face the consequences."
