"My lord, I’m being wronged! I truly know nothing about this; everything was directed by the former Family Head Si Daoyuan!" Si Yicheng screamed hysterically.
But Xue An didn’t respond at all, merely sneering as he watched him.
Si Yicheng felt as if his heart was plunging into an abyss because Xue An’s gaze clearly conveyed three words to him.
Don’t believe!
This also made Si Yicheng feel a piercing intent to kill.
He had no doubt that if he couldn’t convince the other party, he was doomed.
Suddenly.
An idea flashed through his mind.
Although someone as deeply scheming as he hadn’t thought of it beforehand, and doing so would render his many plans void, he couldn’t afford to worry about that now in order to save his own life.
He abruptly raised his hand and pointed at Si Mingqi not far away, shouting, "My lord, I’ll tell you the truth. Everything was plotted by Si Mingqi in the shadows, including the patricide, which he orchestrated. I’m unaware of anything else."
At these words, everyone from the Si Family turned pale.
Many couldn’t fathom that Si Yicheng would say such a thing at this moment.
Wasn’t this tantamount to betraying two Family Heads in succession?
Si Yicheng also understood that doing so would provoke public outrage and fear, but once again, as long as he could survive, nothing else mattered.
Yet at this moment, not only did he not see the slightest hint of forgiveness on Xue An’s face, but he also saw a touch of mockery in his eyes.
This discovery sent a shock through Si Yicheng’s whole body, and he suddenly realized something, just as he was about to turn around.
But in that instant, a cold dagger was thrust into his neck, slicing through veins and airways, before emerging from his throat.
"Gurgle..." Si Yicheng opened his mouth wide, letting out a few unwilling moans, yet not a single word could come out.
Because this stab had severed his vocal cords.
So this normally silver-tongued Si Yicheng could only stand trembling as the blood drained the strength from his body.
The entire scene fell into silence.
Everyone from the Si Family stared wide-eyed and speechless at Si Mingqi, who stood behind Si Yicheng, tightly gripping the dagger’s handle.
Nobody expected such a sudden turn of events.
Only a meaningful cold smile appeared on Xue An’s face.
Meanwhile, Si Mingqi slowly twisted the dagger in his hand, causing Si Yicheng to tremble violently, and blood splattered out even more.
Thud.
Si Mingqi drew the dagger out, and then Si Yicheng struggled to turn around, his eyes full of resentment as he looked at Si Mingqi one last time.
The hatred in those eyes was enough to make one’s heart tremble.
But Si Mingqi remained completely unmoved, only offering a cold smile, then thrust the dagger once more into Si Yicheng’s brow.
This time, Si Yicheng’s eyes finally dulled, and after swaying a few times, his body collapsed to the ground with a thud.
No one spoke. In fact, until now, many of the Si Family members still didn’t understand what had happened.
But then, applause was heard.
Xue An clapped lightly, speaking in a calm tone, "Brilliant, truly a spectacular performance!"
Si Mingqi took a deep breath, discarded the dagger in his hand, and fell to his knees with a thud.
