Liu Qiankun hosts a banquet, subtly threatening the Li family. During his speech, Ye Xuan dramatically crashes the party by destroying the entrance. After being cursed for his disruptive arrival, Ye Xuan swiftly and silently kills Zheng Jing, warning everyone else to stay out of his conflict with the Liu family.

"Madman, madman!!"

The crowd finally snapped back to reality, all faces pale, staring at Ye Xuan in the middle of the scene. The subconscious fear that developed made them take several steps back, their hearts roaring with shock.

The atmosphere grew more silent.

Standing on stage, Liu Qiankun finally came to his senses, his face flushed with anger as he glared at Ye Xuan and said, "Ye Xuan, what do you mean? Killing someone at Elder Luo’s welcome banquet, are you trying to ignite a war?"

"War?" Ye Xuan sneered, "Do you think people like you have the right to talk about war with me?"

Liu Qiankun was furious, "You..."

Ye Xuan disregarded him and said calmly, "I came here today just to tell some stories, especially to the three generations of the Liu Family. Are any of you interested?"

No one responded, the entire scene was shrouded in Death Qi, like a still pond.

Ye Xuan didn’t mind and continued, "When the Liu Family wasn’t the Liu Family of today, back then Liu Wudi was the Leader, though the Liu Family wasn’t as prosperous, it was still in its prime, unstoppable."

Liu Qiankun’s face changed drastically, "Ye Xuan, what are you up to? Shut up!"

"Why hurry? The story has just begun." Ye Xuan ignored him and continued to laugh, "A sudden accident made the heroic Liu Wudi vanish without a trace, yet no one carefully investigated this accident, why?"

As he said this, Ye Xuan paused, looking with interest at Liu Qiankun, whose face was twisted with rage.

The hundreds of eyes present instinctively turned to look at Liu Qiankun. Many shrewd and cunning people quickly retracted their gazes, but many upright members of the Liu Family looked at Liu Qiankun with questioning gazes.

Liu Qiankun, with his face flushed, fumed with anger, "What’s the meaning of this? Why are you looking at me like that? Could I have harmed my own brother?"

"You could, of course you could."

Before anyone else could speak, Ye Xuan continued, "Born greedy, your ambition is inflated, and you are profit-driven. To ascend to the position of Family Head, never mind your brother, even your parents, you wouldn’t bat an eyelid before acting."

Liu Qiankun was furious, "Such nonsense, speaking without evidence can be held accountable!"

Ye Xuan shrugged, "Fairness lies in people’s hearts. Not everyone in this world is as clever as you. I’m afraid most of the Liu Family members have some inkling about this matter, don’t they?"

Words spoken, Ye Xuan’s indifferent gaze swept over the Liu Family members.

Unsurprisingly, when these people encountered Ye Xuan’s gaze, they displayed signs of evasiveness, hinting that they knew well about this incident but didn’t dare to speak up due to various factors.

But such evasive behavior takes on a different flavor in the eyes of other families.

The lovely Li Xiyuan, at this moment, decisively stood up, "When Mr. Liu Wudi was alive, he was kind-hearted. If he was really framed, the descendants should give him justice!"

Leng Qiufeng, who was always busy eating and drinking, also got serious, "Now the Liu Family is recognized as a prominent family, highly praised, but if the Leader of such a family is a hypocrite, it’s disheartening and makes one hesitant to approach."

Suddenly.

The whole atmosphere of the venue changed.

A group of prominent figures suddenly seemed to have been stirred, collectively casting questioning eyes at Liu Qiankun.

Everyone is smart, understanding the need to be vigilant when at ease.

Although their hearts lean towards the Liu Family, if Liu Qiankun is truly ruthless and merciless, how dare they get too close to the Liu Family?

Isn’t getting close to the Liu Family for wealth and honor?

But more important than wealth and honor, is life!

At this moment, the atmosphere in the hotel hall was very tense.

Gazes converged on Liu Qiankun, examining, questioning, causing Liu Qiankun on stage to endure the same treatment Ye Xuan had just experienced.

As if targeted by the whole world, his scalp tingled!

Liu Qiankun gritted his teeth, his eyes fiercely glaring at Ye Xuan, that gaze was murderous.

Everyone has something in their heart they’d rather not have exposed, something that can make them furious just by mentioning.

Obviously, Liu Qiankun has such a thing, and that is the matter of Liu Wudi.

"No, this cannot!"

Liu Qiankun roared in his heart, he couldn’t let this matter be accepted by everyone, because once it is, everyone will hold a strong sense of vigilance towards him, possibly avoiding him, which is extremely detrimental to his great ambitions and grand plans.

Yes, Ye Xuan had no evidence!

Liu Qiankun raised his eyebrows, his face regained some composure, looking at Ye Xuan with a cold smile, "Good story, really a good story, Ye Xuan, I never realized you were more skilled at storytelling than at flirting."

Ye Xuan smiled, "Story or truth, are you not clear in your mind?"

"Evidence?" Liu Qiankun sneered, "Words without evidence are nothing, do you have evidence? Without evidence, you are smearing, slandering!"

Immediately, countless eyes shifted to Ye Xuan, expecting Ye Xuan to produce evidence.

This world speaks about evidence, without evidence, even if it is factual, it cannot be deemed true.

"Evidence..." Ye Xuan tilted his head, thought for a moment, then suddenly laughed, "You may be disappointed, not long ago, I accidentally found the evidence."

Liu Qiankun’s pupils shrank, how could it be?!

Ye Xuan waved his hand.

Liu Ying, who had been quietly following beside him, took out an old model tape recorder from her bag at this time.

All eyes gathered on the tape recorder.

Liu Qiankun’s eyelids twitched uncontrollably.

Under everyone’s gaze, Liu Ying pressed the play button on the tape recorder.

"This action must succeed, must not fail! As long as Liu Wudi lives, I will not become the Family Head, he must die, must!"

This was Liu Qiankun’s voice, everyone could easily distinguish it.

"That little Ying lady..." This was another voice.

"Liu Ying? Hmph, keep her for now, this girl has potential, she’ll be useful in time." Liu Qiankun said.

"Yes, Liu Wudi will not see the sun tomorrow."

"..."

This short conversation seemed to write a segment of history, simple and straightforward.

The atmosphere plunged into complete silence.

Gazes returned to Liu Qiankun, no longer scrutinizing and questioning, what remained was a unanimous sense of vigilance and fear, as if this person was a beast wearing human skin.

To be able to act so cruelly towards his own brother, what else can Liu Qiankun not do?

Indeed.

Many had an inkling in their minds before, but having an inkling and the truth coming to light are entirely different matters!

This is a country that values morals, a society that values face, Liu Qiankun’s actions now exposed, who would dare get close to him in the future?

Once close, it will invite how much contempt and ridicule from others?

Liu Ying stared hard at Liu Qiankun, her beautiful eyes calm as water yet surging with murderous intent.

And Liu Qiankun was completely stunned.
