A bright red handprint trailed along the elevator, painting a terrifying picture.

Not long after, Wang Tianxing had already been discovered.

"Young Master!"

"What happened to you, what's going on?"

"Look, his heart was nearly pierced! Quickly, send him to the hospital."

"My god, it almost stabbed into his heart, missed by just a fraction."

The crowd broke into chaos.

Wang Tianxing was extremely weak, his face streaked with tears: "Father and my brother, they…"

His head drooped to the side as he passed out.

At the same time, Ye Guichen and his group were rushing back in haste, unaware of what Wang Tianxing had done.

Jinling Royal Mansion.

The freshly repaired gate was forcefully busted open again.

The mansion was littered with bodies sprawled everywhere.

Over a hundred assassins with ferocious faces were dispersed throughout.

They killed anyone who resisted on sight, but those who didn't fight back were gathered in the courtyard.

In less than half an hour, the mansion's people were either dead or seriously injured, with no strength left to resist.

In Wang Xiao's room, he sat on the couch, staring coldly at Wang Renfeng without saying a word.

Wang Renfeng stood five steps away, a cold smile hanging from his lips, equally silent.

Behind Wang Renfeng, several assassins fiddled boredly with their weapons.

"You're not my son?"

After a long while, Wang Xiao spoke.

Wang Renfeng nodded, no longer concealing the truth: "You finally figured it out. Your son died long ago. If you wish, you can call me King Yan, or perhaps Feng Renfeng."

"King Yan? You, you're King Yan?" Wang Xiao's hand unconsciously trembled as it gripped his cane, his eyelids twitching rapidly.

He never imagined that the infamous leader of Yama Hall, King Yan, was actually his impostor son.

And to think that he had lived by his side for so many years.

With a bitter smile, Wang Xiao shook his head: "You're here for the Xuanqi within me?"

Wang Renfeng didn't deny it anymore: "Since you know, there's no point in hiding it. I'm here today to reclaim what belongs to me. Originally, I should have had it days ago, but you managed to survive two more days."

Watching Wang Renfeng, along with the assassins behind him, Wang Xiao knew he had no way out, no strength left to resist. A deep sadness filled his heart, a feeling of an aging hero at his wits' end.

His heart was bitter, even cursing his failing eyesight.

But it was all too late.

"I won't resist, but I hope you can spare the innocent." Wang Xiao said in a deep voice.

Wang Renfeng sneered: "Innocent? Who is innocent? Ha, Wang Xiao, you're about to die, why meddle with others' fate? Don't worry, it will hurt, but not for long. When you die, the Xuanqi within you will enter my body, and I'll live on in your stead. You should feel fortunate."

As he spoke, he walked up to Wang Xiao: "Old man, we've been together for over a decade. Even if not blood-related, I've called you father countless times. I won't make it hard for you, take off your clothes and kneel before me."

"Kneel before you?" Wang Xiao looked up at Wang Renfeng, "I, King Jinling, never kneel!"

"Really?" Wang Renfeng sneered: "You're old now, your bones can't stay stiff for long. If you don't want to kneel, we'll see how long you last!"

He called out: "Bring someone in."

Soon, an assassin dragged in someone from the mansion.

Wang Renfeng toyed with an exquisite dagger in his hand.

The dagger was distinctive, though only a few inches long, resembling a snake, like a Golden Snake Sword.

Its entire surface was golden, seemingly crafted from pure gold.

Approaching the mansion inhabitant, Wang Renfeng didn't even look up, grabbed the person's hair, and sliced their throat with the dagger.

Before they realized what happened, they instinctively clutched their necks, but it was useless. Blood flowed through their fingers.

Within minutes, the person was dead in a pool of blood, their body twitching briefly before lying still, the terror frozen on their face.

"What are you planning?" Wang Xiao was alarmed.

He knew Wang Renfeng was no good, having lived undercover for years made him a formidable adversary.

But he didn't expect him to be this ruthless.

Wang Renfeng licked the blood off the dagger and finally spoke: "Wang Xiao, stop wasting time and kneel. Perhaps then I'll spare your people. Otherwise, for every minute you delay, I'll kill one more person. You know human life is nothing but weeds to me."

"You…" Wang Xiao closed his eyes in despair, knowing Wang Renfeng wasn't bluffing.

The mansion had about a hundred people; if he didn't kneel, Wang Renfeng would surely kill them all, one by one.

"I'll kneel!" With a weak voice, Wang Xiao slowly stood up and knelt down.

"Ha ha, so quick to surrender?" Wang Renfeng was momentarily taken aback, then burst into derisive laughter, shaking his head: "Just kneeling, that's not enough. Crawl outside on your knees, let everyone see that the revered King Jinling is just like this."

Turning, his face took on a crazed smile as he walked outside.

Outside, dozens of the mansion's people were already kneeling.

Even the Divine Crossbow Guards had been disarmed and were all kneeling.

Though the Divine Crossbow Guards had some fight left, weakened by poison and then attacked by Yama Hall's assassins, they had suffered losses and were ultimately all subdued.

A deep sense of humiliation surged within Wang Xiao.

As King Jinling for so many years, Wang Xiao's pride was understandable.

To be humiliated by Wang Renfeng like this, he would rather have died earlier.

He knew that Wang Renfeng had suffered his grievances in the Wang family over the years.

In order to maintain his role, Wang Renfeng must have had to endure silently.

Now with this chance, Wang Renfeng would naturally seek revenge.

Fortunately, Wang Chaoyang wasn't at the mansion now.

Wang Xiao prayed fervently for Wang Chaoyang to stay away, knowing even with Ye Guichen's help, it wouldn't be enough.

This time, Wang Renfeng was determined. He had not only brought all the assassins of Yama Hall but also subdued or killed those at the mansion who could fight, leaving only the weak and elderly with no strength to resist.

Even with Ye Guichen's Red Sparrow, what could they do?

While the Red Sparrow could sneak attack, facing over a hundred assassins, they'd be detected after only a few attacks, and Wang Renfeng would immediately kill the Red Sparrow.
