Qin Yi's words sounded very ordinary, but in the eyes of the middle-aged man, they were like the most beautiful music in the world. His heart, which had been clenched tightly together, instantly relaxed.
"Thank you! Thank you for not killing me! "
The middle-aged man was extremely excited. He kept thanking Qin Yi. "From now on, I will cooperate with you in whatever you want me to do."
Of course, he was not satisfied with just staying alive for the time being. Therefore, he had to perform well and strive to live longer!
"Alright, there's no need to show your loyalty here. Come with me! "
Qin Yi's unexpected coldness caught the middle-aged man off guard.
What he did not know was that what Qin Yi hated the most were fickle villains like him.
This guy had first betrayed the Liu Family and sought refuge with Lv Yuanlong. Then, when his life was threatened, he began to curry favor with Qin Yi.
Betrayal was a fact. If he could still stand his ground, perhaps Qin Yi would think more highly of him.
However, he had once again chosen to betray his former master and express his goodwill to Qin Yi. This made it impossible for Qin Yi to accept this guy from the bottom of his heart.
Of course, he did not expect this. In order to survive, he had already given up everything. Now that he saw Qin Yi turn around and walk toward Liu Tianzong's courtyard, he quickly followed.
After pushing open the door, Qin Yi and the others quickly arrived at the door of Liu Tianzong and his wife's room.
At this time, Chu Zhenghao also came down from the roof. He glanced at the middle-aged man indifferently, his face full of disdain.
He had seen everything that had happened just now. He felt that the middle-aged man's behavior was quite shameless!
He was a very stubborn person. Once he had decided on something, he would never change his mind.
Therefore, what he hated the most were people like this who had no standpoint.
At this time, Qin Yi gently knocked on the door and said, "Lord Liu, I'm sorry to interrupt your family reunion. But now, I think you still need to deal with this matter. "
The door opened quickly and Liu Tianzong stood outside. His expression gradually calmed down. It was obvious that he had gradually calmed down after his initial excitement.
But at this moment, the other three people in the room were not as calm as they looked.
This included the Liu sisters and their mother. Everyone's eyes were red and swollen. With a single look, it was obvious that he had been agitated just now, and he hadn't had the time to conceal his emotions.
At this moment, Liu Tianzong's gaze also turned towards the middle-aged man standing behind Qin Yi's group. He suddenly frowned and asked in surprise, "Liu Tianci, what are you doing here?"
It could be seen that Liu Tianzong didn't know much about the traitors in the family. That was why he was at a loss when he saw her.
Qin Yi smiled and said, "Patriarch Liu, let's go inside and talk."
"Alright, come in!"
Liu Tianzong was obviously anxious to know the cause of all this. He immediately stepped aside and allowed Qin Yi and the rest to enter.
"It's like this …"
After entering the room, Qin Yi told Liu Tianzong and the rest what had just happened.
At this moment, the Liu sisters finally understood the meaning behind Qin Yi's seemingly contradictory behavior.
Before entering the room, he told everyone not to expose themselves because he didn't want to alert the enemy.
Without a doubt, if the news of their return reached Liu Tianci's ears, he would definitely choose to inform Lv Yuanlong at the first opportunity. In this way, Qin Yi and the rest still wouldn't be able to find out where the real mastermind was.
After that, he purposely killed the guards. His goal was actually very simple. He wanted to observe the reaction of the people who saw these things!
If it was a normal person, their first reaction upon seeing the corpses would definitely be shock, followed by fear. At the beginning, Liu Tianci's reaction was considered normal.
But if it wasn't a traitor, with Liu Tianzong's influence in the family. The people who saw these things would definitely think of a way to cover it up. Even if they couldn't do that, at least they wouldn't have too much of a reaction. With the thought that it was better to avoid trouble, they quickly left the scene.
Without a doubt, Liu Tianci's reaction was definitely not normal.
In this way, the traitor would be successfully dragged out by Qin Yi.
After hearing all this, Liu Tianzong's reaction was first shock, then pain.
"Liu Tianci, you are my clan brother. You and I have been best friends since we were young. It wouldn't be too much to describe our relationship as intimate, would it? "
Liu Tianzong's voice was filled with grief and indignation. "I already knew that there was a traitor in our family. I also suspected many people, but only you. I never thought it would be you! You … Why did you … betray the family? "
"Brother Tianzong, please forgive me!"
Liu Tianci knelt down shamelessly and said to Liu Tianzong, "I was foolish for a moment. I coveted the position of the family leader. I was blinded by greed and was used by Lv Yuanlong! You have to forgive me! "
"So …"
Hearing this, Liu Tianzong calmed down. He asked in a low voice, "Did you ask Lv Yuanlong to set up those guards outside?"
"No! Definitely not! "
Liu Tianci hurriedly denied. "Although they are under my jurisdiction, it was definitely not my idea to send them here!"
"Humph!"
Liu Tianzong snorted coldly. "Now that things have come to this, what difference does it make whether you sent them or not?"
"Brother Tianzong, you … you have to forgive me!"
Liu Tianci hurriedly shook his head and apologized. "I was wrong this time. I already know I was wrong. Please give me a chance!"
Liu Tianzong took a deep breath and said, "I really didn't expect that the brother I spent so much time with would be such a spineless coward! To be honest, I am very disappointed in you! Say no more! "
"Yes! I have no backbone! I am useless! Even if I am alive, I will not be much of a threat to you! "
In order to live, Liu Tianci had practically thrown away all his dignity. "You can beat me up to vent your anger, or just banish me from the family! Please let me live! "
"You left behind such a mess. You think it will be so easy to leave just like that?"
At this time, Qin Yi finally spoke. He smiled. "Do you need me to teach you what to do next?"
