Too Many Loopholes

Yun Yang said indifferently, "I had no intention to mock your approach, whether it is despicable or tasteless by commenting that it’s a good trick just now.

"We actually didn’t, at first. After seizing the assassin the other day, we’ve gone through the usual procedure of interrogating him. We wanted to find out about his background and if there was someone else behind him who directed him to do so. Who would have known that the old fellow would rather die than to disclose anything? No matter how we tormented him and used several rounds of interrogation tactics, everything was futile. Resigned, we had no choice but to execute Soul Thievery. It came by surprise that the assassin was actually one of Nine Supremes, Supreme Blood’s father!" Lan Wuxin said.
