Rodrigo was furious after receiving the news, especially upon hearing the question if he was the one responsible.
This implied that Xu Mo had been assassinated, and everyone was suspecting him.
Rodrigo indeed harbored a strong intention to kill; he even contemplated whether this might be an opportunity, but quickly dismissed the thought.
Leaving aside whether this was an opportunity deliberately exposed by Xu Mo, even if it wasn't a conspiracy, if he truly killed Xu Mo, the Mystic God Temple wasn't foolish. Everyone knew about his feud with Xu Mo; how could he possibly kill Xu Mo at this crucial time?
Therefore, Rodrigo restrained his strong urge to kill, Xu Mo must die, but the time hadn't come yet.
But what Rodrigo didn't expect was that he did nothing, yet Xu Mo still got assassinated, severely injured...
One can imagine Rodrigo's mood at this moment, especially as his friends all asked if it was his doing.
Presumably, everyone thought so; even Vera thought so.
