"Why?"
Ye Shu's gaze swept calmly over everyone present, pausing briefly on Liu Ling'er's slightly disappointed eyes.
"Ling'er, are you disappointed in me?"
"I..."
Liu Ling'er opened her mouth but said nothing.
Yes, of course she felt disappointed. After more than a decade of feelings, more than a decade of support, unable to buy him even a moment's hesitation—how could she not be disappointed?
How could she not be heartbroken?
But Ye Feng suddenly turned to Liu Ling'er and gave her a bright smile. "Ling'er, if our positions were swapped, would you let me live?"
"Of course I would!" Liu Ling'er answered instinctively.
"Then what are you disappointed about?" Ye Feng looked at her, puzzled. "Isn't what I'm doing right now exactly what you would expect?"
"So why feel disappointed?"
"I..."
Liu Ling'er was stunned.
It did seem to make sense, yet why did her heart still feel so bitter?
"Ling'er! There's no point talking to this ungrateful wretch!"
An elder of the Liu family stared at Ye Feng with a gaze as vicious as if he were his father's murderer. "We Liu family were sworn allies with the Ye family, and look what we've raised!"
"An ingrate and a traitor!"
"Pah!"
The Liu family's curses rose one after another.
Hearing their righteous indignation, Mo Yu couldn't help but grin.
Yes, exactly like this.
Turning the family that originally supported the chosen one against him—that would sap Ye Feng's luck!
That would make him easier to kill.
He glanced at Liu Ling'er. Based on his experience reading villain novels in his past life, the female lead was likely already disillusioned with the male lead at this moment. With a little cunning on his part, he could easily sweep this favored daughter of fate into his arms.
Even though he had lost his masculine function.
But this was only temporary. Someday, he would regain his manhood! And now, weakening the chosen one's luck was a win-win. Why not?
"Do you see? This is the one you follow."
Mo Yu shook his head with feigned regret.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk. So selfish and self-serving. Is he even worthy of your loyalty? How pathetic."
Hearing this, it was as if Mo Yu were standing with the Liu family. The Liu family, moved by his words, joined forces in fury, pouring all their anger onto Ye Feng.
"Ye Feng! You scum!"
"Our Liu family has been blind all these years!"
Listening to the insults, Ye Feng's expression remained utterly unchanged. He calmly looked at the Liu family, who were glaring at him in fury, and seemed somewhat puzzled.
"I don't understand."
"The one who wants to kill you is him. The one who will do the killing is also him. So why do you curse and hate me?"
"Isn't the one who wants to kill you him?"
Ye Feng spoke with utter calmness. "Just because he placed the so-called 'choice' in my hands, does that make me the great sinner?"
"Does that make him appear noble and genuine?"
"And me, false and despicable?"
Ye Feng shook his head and turned to look at Mo Yu.
"No matter who he hands the choice to, no matter how he dresses up this farce as righteous, it cannot hide the fact that he is essentially vile. Especially since his methods are so crude and pathetic."
"The one who wanted to kill you from the start."
"Wasn't me. It was him."
"So why don't you hate him, but instead hate me, who is as innocent as you?"
His voice was soft, yet crystal clear.
The Liu family was instantly choked, unable to speak for a long time. Even Mo Yu's smile froze rigidly. The mask of so-called humanity was torn to shreds by Ye Feng's few words, revealing the twisted and sick heart beneath.
"Brother Ye Feng..."
Hearing his words, Liu Ling'er suddenly realized that she had been directing her resentment at the equally innocent Ye Feng, while feeling no hatred for the true enemy.
How terrifying and how pitiful was that?
At this moment, Ye Feng was terrifyingly rational. Perhaps he had been perfectly rational from the very start.
"Hmph!"
Mo Yu let out a cold snort, unable to resist retorting, "Then why didn't you give them the chance to live? In the end, you're just afraid of death."
At these words, the Liu family lifted their heads.
Yes.
Why?
If someone had to survive, why couldn't it be them?
Why did it have to be the Ye family?
"Are you still saying you have no selfish motives!"
"Why can't I have selfish motives?" Ye Feng met their gaze calmly. "Even sages dare not claim they are selfless or fearless. How could I be without selfish desires?"
"Besides, in this matter, I have no selfish motives."
"I simply chose the optimal solution."
"Even if today I had no Ye family behind me, just me alone facing the Liu family, I would still choose to live."
These words caused an uproar.
"Still saying you're not afraid of death!"
The Liu family boiled with indignation, and even the Ye family behind Ye Feng looked confused.
Has Feng'er... gone mad?
How could he utter such blasphemous words?
Then Ye Feng spoke coldly, "If I live, I can ensure revenge for everyone. I can kill the root of all this evil. This is why me surviving is the optimal choice."
At this moment, Ye Feng was utterly rational.
And supremely confident.
"How can you guarantee that? Just with your mouth? You say you can take revenge, and you will? You say you can revive everyone, and you will? What proof do you have?" someone shouted in disbelief.
"It is obvious, and needs no proof."
Ye Feng turned and stared straight at Mo Yu, standing in the middle, his expression cold.
"Because you, fear me."

"This aura, he's definitely not an ordinary master!" "So terrifying, so terrifying." "A fight with my back against the wall, I can't take it anymore." Qi Yuan: Ah, no one told me that my awakened ability isn't telepathy, but rather the stronger my enemies imagine me to be, the stronger I truly become.
