Ying Jie was taken aback, then quickly understood Demon Lord Hong Lie's meaning. His whole body trembled as he said in a panic, "Ying Jie doesn't know what Father means by this!"
"Don't know what I mean?"
Demon Lord Hong Lie let out a cold laugh, suddenly bursting into rage, his anger seeping out.
A powerful pressure instantly filled the entire study. The pressure was like a wave, even causing the air to slightly distort and ripple.
With a grim expression, he spoke in a voice laced with anger, "Tell me the truth. In order to secure the heir position for our Shi Wu lineage, have you been secretly plotting against Jun'er?"
Ying Jie fell to his knees, his face ashen, dejectedly saying, "Father, I did do such things, but isn't that human nature?
Didn't you do the same back then?"
To secure the position of Family Head, Ying Lie indeed did suppress and plot against other brothers back in the day.
