Chapter 691: You Were the Mastermind Behind All This… It Was You!

Su Yang caught the eager expression on their faces and explained, "The Account Book never lies; what you now Sight is the most genuine inside story."

"The Ancient Castle had a total of eight people, and including the deceased they all earned a respectable amount of money."

"As for Diana's death… the mastermind must have acted out of profit, not merely a simple ordinary romantic affair."

Tang Youning flipped through the whole book, closed his eyes tightly, as if digesting the content he Sight, and also as if pondering.

"So you think Diana infringed on some people's interests?" Li Zhenhua asked.

"Of course, she is just a Maid; her status and power are far below the Nobility, and her Cognition and insight are also vastly different."

"People, once they taste the sweetness of money, become unstoppable; especially those who long to become rich." Su Yang nodded.

"What crime did she commit?" Yu Meng took the Account Book from Tang Youning's hand, her eyes full of confusion.

"Either the loot is divided unevenly, or greed clouds the heart." Su Yang's Finger tapped the table slowly.

"You can indeed see the problem here; Diana's Income is higher than everyone else's." Zhai Sixin nodded silently.

"It's almost at the Cook's level of earnings; it's reasonable that others, upon Vision Perception, feel envious." Li Zhenhua said.

"Because of uneven loot division leading to murder?" Yu Meng thought it unreasonable, "But that wouldn't make all eight want to kill him; the others' interests weren't harmed."

"Wait!" Zhai Sixin sensed something off, carefully turned a few pages, "There is no Count's name on this!"

Oh?

With those words, everyone instantly became alert.

Tang Youning snatched the Account Book from Yu Meng's hand, ignoring her side‑eye and examined it seriously.

After a while, everyone fell into silence.

Su Yang stopped his action and said slowly, "That's the issue; the Count's Income is not written here."

"Could it be that he fears these industries being discovered, making it convenient to protect himself?" Li Zhenhua wondered.

"Impossible; this Account Book must be written clearly." Yu Meng dismissed outright.

Su Yang looked at Li Zhenhua and said, "At first I had the same speculation as Li Dage, but the deeper we investigate, the more shocking the facts become."

"What?" the crowd asked simultaneously.

Su Yang patted the Cloth Bag, smiled, and said, "The answer is hidden inside."

"Quickly open it so we can Vision Perception!" Li Zhenhua urged.

"Hold on, before that, I want to ask Miss Zhai a question first." Su Yang pressed his hand down to signal calm.

"What mischief are you planning now?" Zhai Sixin became wary.

"Coachman—meaning Gu Jun's Innate Talent—what exactly is it?" Su Yang slightly raised his eyelids.

"How would I know?" Zhai Sixin's wary expression deepened.

"It's fine if you don't say; I should be able to guess roughly eighty or ninety percent." Su Yang said calmly.

"What does it have to do with Gu Jun?" Liang Kaiqi asked.

"You said his Innate Talent is hidden, right? Once he's thrown into the Evidence chain, it will surface." Yu Meng looked at the Cloth Bag, curiosity prompting her to try to snatch it.

"I'm lying to you." Su Yang gave a slight smile.

As others were bewildered, Li Zhenhua suddenly said, "He didn't misstate; during the last voting round he was indeed lying."

Zhai Sixin snorted coldly, "I've long said he was farting, yet none of you believed."

Tang Youning's face darkened slightly, "So? What are you trying to convey?"

"When I entered the Stone Door, I realized we were only experiencing a human‑designed scam."

Su Yang lifted a corner of the Cloth Bag, revealing hair strands smeared with blood, "This head is the deep meaning I wish to convey."

Indeed, it was a human head!

People became even more convinced that Su Yang had discovered the Core of the whole game and the ultimate answer inside the Stone Door!

"Who is he?" Li Zhenhua impatiently wanted the answer.

"Count!" Su Yang replied.

"How could that be…"

At that moment, everyone's Vision Perception turned toward Tang Youning.

They noticed his expression turned extremely grim.

Li Zhenhua leaned over and asked, "How could a living person be played by a player? Are you joking?"

"If you just see the true form, won't you know whether I'm lying?" Su Yang's Mouth curved into a slight arc.

"Then show it already, why the secrecy?!" Liang Kaiqi breathed heavily.

Su Yang, seeing their anxious looks, chuckled softly and said, "Returning to the earlier topic, the Account Book fundamentally has no Count's name."

"It's not that he wants to act alone; rather, a larger network of relationships is hidden within."

"Meanwhile, this Count is not that Count."

"The Count sitting before you is actually Sikeite's father—Rex!"

The scene suddenly fell into silence.

Yet moments later Tang Youning burst into loud laughter, his laugh filled with sarcasm and mockery.

"Su Yang, Su Yang, what nonsense are you spouting?"

"Because of a single Account Book you arbitrarily invented a name no one has ever heard or seen, treating everyone like fools."

"Indeed, only you entered the space inside the Stone Door, but that's no excuse to slander at will!"

Li Zhenhua's heart was now tangled.

Because he knew—

Su Yang did not lie!

The others were watching, after all, what Su Yang said differed greatly from the current known situation.

I want to refute, but can't find an angle.

Moreover, the one who can Lie Detection hasn't spoken.

So that means…

These are all true?

Tang Youning saw they didn't react, his smile stiffened, "Do you believe his ghost story?"

"Whether you believe or not, let the facts speak." Zhai Sixin said.

"Stop hiding it, reveal the appearance of this Brain." Liang Kaiqi urged.

Su Yang saw Tang Youning's look of not giving up until seeing Huang He, and nodded, "Since everyone wants to see, then let you all have a glimpse!"

Having said that, he immediately uncovered the remaining three angles.

In an instant, a grotesque human face suddenly appeared before the people.

Eyeballs as large as bronze bells, gray‑white, a gaping Mouth, and twisted features were clear.

Boom!

"This is…" Li Zhenhua's heart instantly surged with a storm.

Not only him, the others were equally shocked.

Even Tang Youning was dumbfounded at this moment.

What did he see?

A Brain with a familiar appearance?!

Su Yang, seeing the situation, immediately added Fire, "The photos in the Master Room are still fresh in everyone's memory, this face…"

"If not the Count, then who?"

"Impossible!" Tang Youning's eyes widened, preferring to believe what he saw was an illusion!

"Didn't expect that?" Su Yang's face showed a hint of mockery, "You thought you could hide flawlessly, but the natives inside the Ancient Castle never killed him."

"Rex seized the magpie's nest, taking everything that belonged to him."

"These dealings are all orchestrated by Rex behind the scenes."

"When the plot was exposed, Rex tried to push Diana out as a scapegoat."

"But she didn't want to shield anyone, so she tried to report, dying together with everyone."

"The people inside the Ancient Castle, having tasted the life of the rich, wouldn't willingly be beheaded, so an eight‑person rotating whipping scene occurred."

Saying that, Su Yang, carrying a severed head, walked to Tang Youning's side and softly said, "You are the Mastermind behind all this…"

"Brother Tang!"
