Yan Nan cast Fang Che a meaningful sidelong glance.
Fang Che lowered his head and recorded everything without changing expression.
At last, the confessions of his accomplices were complete.
Yan Nan said heavily, "Night Demon, do you know how many people this wave has implicated? How many people will have to die?"
Fang Che said respectfully, "That depends on your instructions, Vice Sect Leader Chen. If we proceed strictly and harshly, I estimate more than a million people will have to die."
"You're thinking too simply."
Yan Nan said blandly, "When cutting weeds, how could you not uproot the roots? A million? Wait until you truly start killing and see."
"Tell us about the Divine Ferret Spirit Snake's strongholds, how you contacted them, and whether there's still a way to flush them out and kill them now."
Yan Nan spoke.
"Yes."
Feng Yun had remained kneeling upright on the ground the entire time. Now he began another round of confessions.
"Tell us about the Guardians' hidden contacts. Where are they, and how can they be reached?"
Yan Nan's voice was as still as an ancient well.
"Yes. My contact with the Guardians also came about by chance. I never met them directly.

When I returned later and found that it had indeed been taken, I would leave more information in the same place."
"From beginning to end, I never saw them face-to-face, nor did I know who was on their side. But the things I wanted to accomplish by borrowing the Guardians' hands were all accomplished."
Feng Yun said, "Now that I've been captured, they may already know. As for whether we can find them, I have no confidence."
"Why is that?"
