Zhuo Hongyi’s expression shifted abruptly, as did those of everyone else in the room. They had not expected Su Yan to utter such terrifying words. They believed their lives in Yunjing held significant value, yet in Su Yan’s eyes, they seemed no better than trash. He treated them as if he could dispose of them at will, without a shred of regard for their status. What was most infuriating was that if Su Yan truly intended to do so, they would have no means to resist.
They had poured so much effort into opposing Su Yan, yet in the end, everything had failed. Now that Su Yan had come to their doorstep, they stood helpless, forced to endure whatever was to come. The others in the Zhuo family watched him with terror, fearing he might strike out at any moment. If he did, wouldn't they all die here? At the mere thought, they felt an agonizing inability to accept such a reality.
"Su Yan... you... don't go too far," Zhuo Hongyi stammered, needing a long moment to process the situation. He stared at Su Yan, his heart filled with rage, yet overwhelmed by a deeper sense of impotence. Faced with such an formidable Su Yan, he felt utterly powerless—he was simply no match for him.
