"Regarding your question, Taoist, that's right."
"Professionals should indeed handle it. In just half an hour, your night watchmen managed to pry open his mouth."
The Taoist couldn't help but praise upon hearing the reply.
Kui Lei's ears turned even redder at this. She adjusted the loose hair on her forehead and said shyly,
"Cough, we didn't really do much. Once the Mystic Ice melted, he confessed on his own.
The reason it took half an hour was solely to verify the truth of his claims, which caused the delay."
"He confessed!?"
"Yes, he confessed."
"Voluntarily?!"
"Yes, voluntarily, but he said he has a final secret that he will only reveal to you."
Jin Xu, somewhat disbelieving, confirmed once more, then his lips twitched.
If he could confess so easily, why the hell did he attempt suicide by poison earlier!
Kui Lei seemed to notice the fluctuation in the Taoist's emotions and stealthily glanced at him.
Well, the mask was covering it, but his eyes seemed quite nice.
