Li Changhe took a few steps forward, coughed lightly, and spat out blood.
His gaze was incredibly calm. As he walked in front of Mu Feng, a smile stretched across his face.
The bloodstains between his teeth were clearly visible.
"I know you've been looking for me, and to find me, you've captured quite a few people. They've all become tools you've used, and they'll be exposed sooner or later."
"And I don't want to live anymore. After all, I've suffered enough for some things. Now that I've appeared before you, no matter what methods you use to deal with me, I'll accept it. But this matter has nothing to do with many people in my Li family."
"Those who participated in that matter back then will stand up on their own and let you deal with them. For those who are not involved in that matter, I hope you will let them go."
"Consider this my plea to you, hoping you can give my Li family another chance."
"I don't want the entire Li family to be wiped out in my generation."
Mu Feng said thoughtfully, "It's because you have even more powerful people supporting you from behind."
"Otherwise, you wouldn't be this composed and calm now. Even facing death, you wouldn't want to reveal the people behind you."
"I'm afraid that person is truly capable of bringing your Li family down with ease. Otherwise, with your personality, you would definitely prioritize saving yourself over others."
Li Changhe chuckled, "I have to say, you're really smart."
"But sometimes, intelligence can backfire. You must have already guessed that I'm not the true mastermind. I was merely following orders back then."
"I alone am no match for your Mu family, so I had to take a risk and use countless people to help."
"And now, they've already killed each other through my hands."
"The number of survivors now will not exceed five."
A faint smile appeared on Mu Feng's face, "Are you trying to tell me who is behind this, and also tell me that knowing them would bring me no benefit?"
His words directly blocked what Li Changhe intended to say.
He had to admit that Mu Feng's intelligence was simply too high. He was not just a little bit smarter than him.
If Mu Feng wished, even if he were treated like a fool, he probably wouldn't know where he went wrong. The most crucial point was that Mu Feng's strength far surpassed his understanding.
"Since I've said what you wanted to say, I've already guessed what's on your mind. You don't need to beat around the bush with me here."
"I just want to ask you who is behind this. If you confess honestly, this matter will be completely over. I won't bother the innocent people of your Li family again. But if you refuse to speak..."
Mu Feng didn't continue his sentence, but the meaning was very clear.
Xiao Qi swung a steel knife.
The several people in front of him had their necks severed by his blade.
A brilliant smile appeared on his face as he looked at Li Changhe.
Li Changhe's eyelids twitched a few times, but his expression remained unchanged, as if the deaths of these people had nothing to do with his Li family.
Mu Feng said calmly, "It's fine if you don't want to say anything. In another ten seconds, someone will die."
"I will continue to keep track of the time."
"Those who weren't involved in that matter back then will also be counted. We have plenty of people, and we can take our time. I believe you will eventually compromise."
"Because in your eyes, I see heartache."
"And I see regret."
Hearing this, Li Changhe slowly closed his eyes and took a deep breath.
Then, a look of pain could not help but appear on his face.
"Mu Feng, do you know why I'm severely injured now? You haven't seen my strength before. Ordinary people can't harm me."
"But if you look closely, you'll find that my injuries are very serious, almost incurable."
"Even an ordinary Xiantian realm expert could kill me now."
"I was hiding at home to recover. Otherwise, you wouldn't have been able to capture me so easily."
Mu Feng raised an eyebrow, knowing this fellow had something to say.
He didn't press further.
Instead, he waited quietly for Li Changhe to speak on his own.
Time slowly passed in silence.
Everyone's gaze was fixed on Li Changhe.
Xiao Qi did not stop his actions.
Ten seconds later, another member of the Li family met his demise.
This was the blood debt they owed from back then, and now it had to be repaid with blood.
Two-thirds of the people present deserved their fate. What they had done back then was a hundred times more heinous than what Mu Feng was doing now.
Mu Feng hadn't done anything to them except take their lives. Back then, they had wantonly toyed with people's lives, treating them as insignificant as blades of grass, harvesting them without a second thought.
Now, they all regretted it, kneeling on the ground, with countless people weeping bitterly.
The pleas for mercy gradually grew louder.
Li Changhe slowly opened his eyes, a bitter smile appearing on his face, "Mu Feng, I'm sorry. All of it was my fault back then."
"I apologize to you here and atone to your Mu family."
"Those who participated in that matter back then should stand up on their own. Mu Feng will definitely not let you go. And you've seen the current situation. Crying and begging for mercy is of no use. Since you did that, you must pay the price."
His voice carried a trace of unspeakable weariness.
Some of them wept even harder.
They didn't want to die. They hadn't enjoyed their lives of wealth and status for long enough.
Losing their lives now meant losing everything.
Some tried to escape, but they died even faster.
Suddenly, someone stepped forward and shouted furiously at Li Changhe, "All of that back then was your own fault. Why should we be held responsible for you?"
"Although you are our patriarch, you cannot bring about the downfall of our family."
"You must bear all the consequences. You are the one who truly deserves to die."
"That's right, Mu Feng, why are you attacking us? You should kill him directly!"
Everyone roared in anger. After the initial extreme panic, their emotions had transformed into a surge of indignation.
Mu Feng looked calmly at those people, "You are not qualified to question me."
"If you feel unconvinced, you can go to the Yellow Springs Road and ponder it slowly."
"If you can't figure it out, you can go ask the stubborn elders of my family. They will give you the answers."
"And I am only responsible for sending you to meet them."
