Try this for irony:
As a prince of the Jin Empire, Yeung Hong was accustomed to sending others to do the dirty work of killing for him. When Yeung Hong wanted someone dead, he didn't need to soil his own hands with his enemies' blood...not when people such as the Yellow River Four Ghosts, Pang Lin Fu, Sa Tung Teen, Leung Tze Yung, Ling Tze Seung Yan, Au Yeung Hak, Mui Chiu Fung, Kau Cheen Yan, and even West Poison Au Yeung Fung could do it for him.
How ironic it seems, then, that Yeung Hong finally met his demise because he chose to kill Wong Yung *personally*. It was a moment's desperation or rage, but he lashed out at Wong Yung with his own hand rather than order one of this flunkies to do it for him (as he customarily would). Had he followed his own standard operational procedure, he might not have died at that point.
