Xiaoxi wasn't surprised at all by what she saw; she had already anticipated this outcome.
The young novice monk, a water spirit, had never seen such a ruthless person before.
Even in the harshest living conditions within his clan, there was never a case of fathers killing their sons; their extended family remained united and loving.
The young novice monk tightly covered his mouth, trying not to make a sound.
He's invisible now; he hasn't muted his voice.
Ye Dexian was seen struggling desperately with his mouth and nose covered, trying to grab Ye Shi'an's wrist.
Ye Shian was, after all, a young man. How could Ye Dexian's strength compare to his?
After observing for a while, Xiao Xi decided to give Ye Shi'an a helping hand instead of waiting.
She sent a burst of divine sense over, making the cushion fit perfectly against Ye Dexian's face.
A moment later, Ye Dexian kicked his leg and fell silent.
After holding it tightly for a long time, Ye Shi'an finally moved the cushion away.
His trembling fingers reached close to Ye Dexian's nose to probe, until the other could no longer feel his breath.
He was so startled that he dropped the cushion.
"Ah! I killed someone! I actually killed my father."
Ye Shi'an then panicked.
He frantically destroyed evidence, constantly wiping away fingerprints and rearranging the sofa and coffee table to ensure there were no traces of the crime.
Seeing all this, Xiaoxi felt an immense sense of joy.
Serves you right, Yip Tak-yin, you've finally met your match!
Ye Shi'an, don't think that killing your father will solve the problem?
Your master's family persecuted Ye Lingfeng back then; now it's time to repay them tenfold.
It's a pity I didn't do it myself, but that's fine too, so I don't get my hands dirty.
After finishing what he had done in the study, Ye Shi'an forced himself to calm down and left the study.
After a while, Butler Lu entered the study as part of his daily routine and found Ye Dexian lying on the floor.
Soon the entire manor was in an uproar; the head of the household had passed away.
Ye Shi'an was pretending to leave the villa and head to the company at the usual time.
He pretended to be panicked and stumbled into the study.
Then he started wailing and crying, and then pretended to be calm and informed his three younger brothers.
Ye Dexian had always been in poor health and suffered from underlying medical conditions. Ye Shian's three younger brothers found their father's old clothes.
They concluded that their father had suffered a sudden cardiac arrest and had not yet suspected anything suspicious about his death.
Ye Shi'an had just inhaled a lot of the medicinal powder that Xiao Xi had sprinkled last night in the study.
His mind wasn't quite clear at that moment.
"Our Ye family cannot be without a leader for even a day, so from today onwards, I am the new head of the family!"
When my father was alive, he favored me, his eldest son, the most. Of the four brothers, I was the only one who lived in the mountain villa.
Indeed, his three younger brothers did not live in the resort, and they all felt that they were more comfortable living separately.
Previously, Ye Dexian had arranged villas for them nearby. Even though they weren't as luxurious and spacious as the mountain resort, they were still very luxurious and comfortable.
The three younger brothers were shocked to hear their eldest brother say that, mainly because he didn't consider the occasion.
Moreover, his condescending tone made the three brothers very uncomfortable.
The second son began to refute.
"Brother, what are you saying?"
"My father just passed away. Shouldn't our most important task be to handle his funeral arrangements?"
The third brother said, "Big brother, aren't you being a little too impatient? Your behavior is making us wonder."
Youngest brother: "Big brother, don't go too far!"
Why are you the new head of the family? We've never heard Father say that.
I think my second brother is more capable of being the head of the family!
Ye Shian's relationship with his three younger brothers was indeed not good. The second brother was steady and knew how to get along with people, and he did a good job in terms of brotherly love.
The youngest brother's suggestion was immediately echoed by the third brother.
Enraged, Ye Shi'an lost his composure and kicked over the coffee table.
