Xue Wei's lips trembled slightly, as if he wanted to defend himself, but faced with the surrounding soldiers' preparedness, he knew any words would be futile.
His gaze wandered between the Family Head and the observing clansmen, finally lowering his head, standing there silently.
The audience in the square watched this scene, whispering amongst themselves, some sighing: "Serves him right!"
Others felt fortunate: "I've disliked him for a long time. Now, I'm finally satisfied!"
At this moment, the entire square was silent, everyone's eyes focused on Xue Wei and the Family Head, awaiting the upcoming judgment.
The Family Head looked at Xue Wei, his eyes filled with complex emotions—anger, disappointment, and a tinge of heartache.
But he knew well that for the future of the Xue Family, he must make the most correct decision.
The elders stepped forward anxiously, asking:
"Family Head, what should be done about Xue Wei's wicked deeds?"
