Chapter 428

After hearing this, Ma Sanluo first fell into a moment of deep thought.

Then, he revealed a face full of grievance, and at this moment, he spoke out loudly.

"Young Master, this is all a misunderstanding! I only wanted to let my pigeons out for some air; I had no other intentions."

"Furthermore, this whole matter is a complete misunderstanding. I am entirely loyal to you; please do not wrong an innocent man!"

Seeing that Ying Mo was not particularly convinced, Ma Sanluo directly began his performance.

His words carried a very pitiful tone, as if he were truly being wronged.

At this moment, there was even a hint of sobbing in his voice; Ma Sanluo had now completely given up on himself.

He knew that trying to clear his name with his own abilities was basically impossible. Now, there was only one way: to elicit sympathy from others.

Perhaps in this way, the other party might spare his life out of respect for him being an old general.

However, at this moment, seeing the other party still quibbling, Ying Mo became even angrier in his heart.

Originally, he had not intended to kill Ma Sanluo, but the impact of this matter was truly vile, and the other party was still constantly lying to his face.

Treating him like a fool—Ying Mo naturally could not tolerate this.

Subsequently, Ying Mo was heard saying: "You really treat us all like fools to be deceived."

"Let me tell you, we know everything you have done clearly."

"You don't need to try to cover it up, and do you think you are the only one who knows about the dirty things you've done?"

Upon hearing this, Ma Sanluo was instantly startled, and at this moment, he was even unable to speak.

His speech was somewhat choked, but at this time, he instead believed even more firmly that Ying Mo did not actually have the evidence of the crime he had committed.

Moreover, at this moment, he also knew his position; within the entire Huayin Mountain, it was not low at all, and he possessed considerable power.

Therefore, Ying Mo could not possibly kill him just like that.

So, when he thought of this, Ma Sanluo was heard quibbling: "Heaven and earth are my witness, the sun and moon can see."

"Of course I will not admit to things I haven't done, especially since this matter involves so much; some things cannot be said recklessly."

"After all, if something is said wrong, it can still be changed, but once a charge is placed on one's head, there is no chance to change it."

"So I can tell you very clearly, I have never done such a thing."

When he said this, his expression was very sincere, and the Grand General nearby felt a bit suspicious seeing this scene.

Was it possible that their group had caught the wrong person? However, at this moment, Ying Mo gave a cold shout: "Bring them out."

After saying this, a small squad of people was seen being brought out from the side.

They were wearing shackles; it was clear they were the real criminals.

But while the others saw no abnormality in these people's expressions, when Ma Sanluo saw them, his face suddenly changed drastically.

The reason was simple: these people were all his subordinates, or rather, his confidants.

Whatever task he had, he would tell these confidants; these eight people were the ones he valued and trusted the most.

Of course, this included the details of his relationship with the Blood Blade Sect, which he had also discussed in detail.

Because he believed that these eight people would never betray him.

But what he did not expect was that human endurance has its limits. In order to achieve his goal, Ying Mo only needed to use a small tactic.

473. The confidants have arrived, leaking information! (Please subscribe!)

473. The confidants have arrived.

It was enough to dig out some of these people's affairs, which is why Ying Mo had such confidence at this moment.

Otherwise, just catching the other party was useless; there had to be evidence, either human or material.

Upon seeing his confidants arrive, Ma Sanluo lowered his head, not daring to speak further.

He pretended as if he knew nothing, hoping to escape punishment.

At this moment, Ying Mo did not care about that; since the people were already here.

He addressed the small squad that had just been brought over: "You all, honestly confess what this matter is really about."

"What else has Ma Sanluo done to you? You must give me a detailed account; there must be no delays, and certainly no errors."

At this moment, so many soldiers were watching, including the General of the Huayin Mountain camp, who was also staring at them intently.

They wanted to know if the events of tonight had anything to do with Ma Sanluo.

At this moment, one of the leaders among the people below stepped out and cried: "General Ma, I am truly sorry to you."

"But I have confessed everything. You do indeed have a relationship with the Blood Blade Sect. You should just say it yourself to avoid physical suffering; their methods are truly ruthless."

"And this matter is something you did yourself; a man should have the courage to admit what he has done, regardless of the reason."

The other men also spoke up one after another: "General Ma, actually, the Young Master is very clever. From the very beginning, he had already investigated everything."

"If you don't want to leave with dignity, then perhaps he will help you leave with dignity. This matter is extremely difficult; you should not continue down the wrong path."

"Lest you be left with an extremely bad reputation. If you turn back now, there might still be a glimmer of hope; do not be obsessed and lose your way."

At this moment, several people expressed their thoughts one after another; it was clear they also felt that this matter was very wrong.

Upon hearing this, the people around felt their hearts settle.

Now that those who followed Ma Sanluo had all turned against him.

Then there was nothing left for the others to say.

At the same time, everyone felt incomparably shocked.

Among so many people, Ying Mo was actually able to directly pick out the one who had defected.

At this moment, everyone's eyes were on Ma Sanluo.

Ma Sanluo felt his face burning red and incomparably hot.

After all, Ma Sanluo was considered a person of status in the Huayin Mountain camp.

In normal times, he would even train soldiers and was considered to have great dignity.

But the incident just now had drained all his confidence.

It seemed that in front of everyone, he had turned into a clown who deceived the world.

Thinking of this, he felt incomparably depressed and uncomfortable.

Ying Mo said quietly: "If you tell me honestly, I can consider leaving your corpse intact."

Hearing this, Ma Sanluo knew he could not survive.

But a strong desire to live made him continue to argue at this moment.

"Actually, Young Master, I do admit to those things; I did indeed leak information to the Blood Blade Sect here before I arrived."

"But I can tell you, I had my reasons for this."

Upon hearing this, everyone immediately became interested.

They also wanted to hear how Ma Sanluo would quibble at this moment.

Ying Mo said: "Speak."

Ma Sanluo then said seriously: "I have a son, and he is my only son."

"He is currently being held by the Blood Blade Sect. I was afraid that this operation would get him killed, so I specifically leaked the information."

"I absolutely did not do it intentionally."

After saying this, Ying Mo asked suspiciously: "You mean to say he was also captured by the Blood Blade Sect? Then you should hate the Blood Blade Sect even more."

0 .. 0

"How could you go and leak information to them? Do you think we would kill innocent civilians?"

"Just like the shopkeepers and the inn waiters who leaked information to us, would we kill them?"

"Besides, you are a deputy general; don't you even understand this much?"

Just after Ying Mo finished saying this, Ma Sanluo said seriously: "Actually, the main reason is that my son is a small captain over there."

Hearing this, Ying Mo's expression changed instantly.

He did not expect the other party to be playing games with him.

If he really was a small captain, then this matter would be tricky.

After all, the Blood Blade Sect itself was not a good thing.

One must know that the squad Ying Mo had previously captured in the village next to Huixian, which was poisoning people, was also just a small squad.

Led by a small captain who kept poisoning people.

Just this alone caused many villagers in the surrounding area to be poisoned repeatedly.

So at this moment, a hint of killing intent appeared in Ying Mo's eyes: "Then your son is quite impressive. You actually dare to say it so brazenly; I admire you."

474. Being a small captain, there's no need! (Please subscribe!)
