Chapter 469: The Truth Behind Yun Mu’s Father’s Death

Chapter 469: The Truth Behind Yun Mu's Father's Death

In an instant, Yun Mu's dark eyes narrowed, gleaming with an eerie light.

Yun Chengsen revealed that his ultimate goal was to kill both her and her father!

So, it was you all along!

"So, my father's sudden death five years ago wasn't due to a relapse of his old illness, but your doing!"

In that moment, Yun Mu connected all the dots.

Yun Chengsen sneered, "Five years, and you only just realized it? Hahaha, if my dear elder brother knew that the daughter he so meticulously raised was so useless, wouldn't he die in despair? Hahaha..."

"The formula for the blood disease poison, did you steal it when you killed my father, using his emblem as the head of the family to enter the main building?" Yun Mu continued to ask.

"Exactly! But I originally wanted to steal the antidote for the blood disease. I never expected there would be no record of the antidote for the withering grass. Unable to find the antidote, I had no choice but to present the formula for the blood disease poison to Yi Hou!"

Yun Mu thought with a sneer. Of course, he wouldn't find any record of the antidote.

Because the book containing the antidote had long been taken to the capital branch of the Yun family! If she hadn't seen the medical records in the fishing village hut, she wouldn't have recognized the only remaining ingredient for the withering grass antidote in the southern Yun family, just in time to save Yi Jue's life!

Yun Chengsen continued, "But unexpectedly, Yi Hou enhanced the formula and actually produced the poison, using it on you! Hahaha! This is karma! Pure karma!"

"What karma? Just because you didn't win the position of head of the Yun family, you held a grudge against me and my father, so you decided to kill us both?"

"Of course not!"

"Then what was your reason?"

Yun Mu suddenly raised her voice, grabbing Yun Chengsen's collar, her beautiful eyes already filled with killing intent, looking down at him.

She roared, "Say it! Why?"

In that moment, she genuinely wanted to kill Yun Chengsen.

And in that same moment, Yun Mu suddenly realized that she was indeed a daughter who failed in her filial duties.

Although that old man had been strict with her since childhood, never expressed any fatherly affection. But the debt of upbringing is immense, and moreover, he had indeed honed her skills, making her a once powerful figure.

When she heard of his death, she was out on a mission. By the time she returned, his body was already cold.

She had thought she hated that old man, and she truly had, not shedding a single tear at his funeral. Right after his funeral, she ostentatiously held her own ceremony to succeed as the new head of the family.

At that time, she even thought vengefully, she would show that rigid old man how she surpassed him!

But she never expected that five years later, she would learn that he had died of murder.

And she, had never known...

Not only had she not avenged him, but she had kept hating him.

Yun Chengsen, seeing Yun Mu now completely lost control of her emotions, grew even more delighted, laughing loudly.

"Yes, just like this! Don't you feel like killing me now? Come on! Kill me! When I lost everything, that's how much I hated your father, desperate to kill him!"

Yun Mu gradually tightened her grip on his neck, "Tell me, what was your motive? If not for the position of head of the Yun family, then for what?"

"Cough... I won't tell you. I want you to live a life worse than death for over twenty years! If you have the guts, kill me now! Kill me to avenge your father! And avenge yourself!"

Yun Mu was filled with overwhelming fury, wishing she could end this lunatic's life right now!

"Killing you would be too easy! Killing you won't bring that old man back to life! But are you really so reckless that you don't care about anything at all? What about that woman? Your first love?" Yun Mu threatened.

Unexpectedly, Yun Chengsen remained completely unmoved, even laughing more maniacally.

"Hahaha, I did cherish that woman before, but I never loved her! She was just a replacement I found! Go ahead and kill me! Now that she's back, knowing she's alive, what does it matter if I die?"

This was something Yun Mu had never expected.

A replacement? She's back?

Could it be that the woman wasn't Yun Chengsen's first love after all?

Yun Mu clenched her grip, "You better explain this to me clearly! Who exactly has come back?"

Yun Mu had a strong feeling that she was getting closer to the truth. The reason why Yun Chengsen was so determined to kill her and her father would soon be revealed...

But to her surprise, Yun Chengsen remained tight-lipped, only saying, "Once you're dead, the Yun family will be clean."

"What do you mean by 'clean' if I die? Did I taint the Yun family? Yun Chengsen, if you don't explain clearly today, you'll go down and tell my father yourself!" Yun Mu choked and shook Yun Chengsen by the neck.

The force was so strong that Yun Chengsen's face began to turn red, and he could only cough, unable to form complete words, struggling to say, "You... you are not..."

"Yun Mu, stop!"

Suddenly, a cry of alarm came.

Yunzhe, hearing the commotion, rushed in and forcefully pulled Yun Mu away, pushing Yun Chengsen aside.

"Let me go, I'm about to get the truth! I must figure out the whole story today!"

Originally, she had wanted to slowly investigate the truth behind her supposed death over a year ago and understand what Yun Chengsen had done. But now, she didn't have time!

Moreover, having just learned the truth about the old man's death, Yun Mu couldn't possibly remain calm.

Yun Mu struggled fiercely in Yunzhe's grip, but before she could exert more strength, a muffled groan came from beside them.

It was Yun Chengsen's voice.

Both of them froze and turned to look.

In an instant, Yun Mu's pupils dilated sharply.

Yunzhe's body also stiffened, his face filled with disbelief.

Yunzhe's inadvertent push had flung Yun Chengsen out of his wheelchair, causing him to fall onto the gravel path opposite.

His head hit the ground, and his temple struck a sharp rock.

Bright red blood poured out.

Yun Chengsen's sinister, hawk-like eyes stared fixedly at Yunzhe, "You... you..."

As he spoke, he raised his hand, trembling as he pointed at Yunzhe, his voice slurred with blood foam, "You dare... you dare..."

Then, with a spurt of blood, Yun Chengsen's hand slammed heavily to the ground, and his head tilted to the side.

Yun Mu was the first to snap out of it and quickly bent down, placing her finger under Yun Chengsen's nose.

Then, her face turned pale.

She looked up at Yunzhe, shaking her head in disbelief, "He's dead."

Yunzhe's breath caught in his throat.

Yun Mu was utterly shocked that Yun Chengsen had died so suddenly.

That old viper who killed her father and poisoned her—could have died so easily?

And to top it off, it was Yunzhe who killed him.
