Cheng Hai raised his hand: "These summoners – why don't we just capture them to interrogate? Having them answer with a wisp of conscience would be the quickest way to learn the truth about the monster attack. We have solid evidence about their Theríon being around the crime scene. They can't refuse this interrogation."
Peacock Lord shook his head: "Unfortunately, they are dead."
That prompted a frown on Cheng Hai's face: "Dead? Who killed them?"
Xiu Yao voluntarily explained: "About one month ago, Sparrow Lord came to the pavilion together with his sons and these summoners. He wanted compensation because my little junior brother tore his son's arm off. But after we claimed that the twins launched an assassination attempt on Goddess Mei, they admitted it outright. The twins said that they were acting of their own accord, without orders from anyone. That's why the Sparrow Lord killed them."
