Yelu Qi heard the words, his eyelids twitched twice, but his expression remained unchanged, and his heart did not skip a beat as he said, "Counselor Liao has an elderly mother at home, and he wished to return home to care for her, so I agreed."
He paused, then asked, "Why are you suddenly asking about this?"
Scarface coldly said, "Prince, how long do you plan to deceive me? It was you who, upon listening to that man Liao, to force me to risk my life for you, ordered your men to kill my entire family, then pretended to rescue me, to ensure I'd be utterly loyal to you."
Yelu Qi placed his hand on the hilt of his sword and looked at Scarface, saying, "Who told you this? Yelu Yan? By saying so, he aims merely to drive a wedge between us. How could you work for an enemy?"
Scarface muttered in despair, "Yes, how could I work for an enemy?"
While speaking, he suddenly drew his knife and lunged at Yelu Qi.
