The man's self-entitled complaints seemed to Sima Yi nothing but a display of incompetence.
Sima Yi, who inherently disdained such things, would have long since taught the man a lesson if it weren't for his temper and the powerful backing the other party had.
However, now Sima Yi, though holding himself back from acting, was not at all polite as he barked, "Damn it, you messed up the job! You couldn't even kill the person my Sima Family wanted dead, and now you still expect to be paid?"
Sima Yi glared angrily, but the man who was being scolded did not show the slightest guilt and instead stared back at him coldly, not bothering to conceal the murderous intent in his eyes.
At that moment, Sima Yi felt a bone-chilling coldness. Knowing the kind of assassins his family hired, who were absolutely obedient, he was aware that refusing to pay them wouldn't fare well for the Sima Family.
