The rain continued without pause.
Wan Xifeng's corpse was dragged out of the courtyard. Chen Yi glanced back and saw the elderly woman with white hair sitting dazedly in her chair, waiting for a son who would never return.
Wan Xifeng had deceived her, making her believe he was a wayward son who had turned over a new leaf. She was old, her eyesight gone, trapped within this courtyard, completely unaware of the heinous misdeeds Wan Xifeng had committed.
If not for his endless wickedness, serving as a thug for Ju Weng Pavilion, Wan Xifeng's name would not have been reported by the government office to the two bureaus and one division.
Chen Yi, however, chose not to expose Wan Xifeng's lies to the elderly woman.
Seeing Wan Xifeng's corpse, Luo Nanwu and Wu Qingsheng both nodded slightly.
"I thought… you might show mercy and spare this villain's life." Luo Nanwu, the steward of Stop War Division, spoke with some surprise in his tone.
