Yang Sheng is becoming increasingly outstanding, posing a threat to Shen Beiming's position as heir. If Xiang Wan hadn't told him the truth in advance, Shen Guang probably wouldn't have let him live in the end.
Greed was the true culprit behind Shen Guang's self-destruction. Yang Sheng was merely finding relief after avenging his great grudge.
