Perhaps it was because the County Magistrate's comfort had an effect, and she fell into a deep sleep.

At the same time, the County Magistrate also involuntarily lost consciousness in the quiet.

After all, the two of them had been startled awake from their sleep.

The events that followed caused their moods to fluctuate wildly, which was quite a shock to their spirits.

At the time, it might have served as a good stimulant, but afterwards, it would make people feel exceptionally mentally exhausted.

It was precisely because of this that the two of them finally fell into a deep sleep until the next morning.

"Master, has that matter been ordered to be done?"

The County Magistrate's wife was serving the County Magistrate breakfast.

At the same time, a look of worry was revealed between her brows, and her words carried a hint of expectation.

At this very moment, the County Magistrate put down the wine cup in his hand, sighed, and spoke again.

"Sigh~"

"The matter has been handled, and those people have been arranged; it's not many, but it's certainly not few."

When he said this, the County Magistrate couldn't help but look at his wife beside him, and at the same time, he spoke with a tone of relief.

"Fortunately, you prepared well before; that place can accommodate nearly twenty people to rest, so they didn't say much."

As he spoke, the County Magistrate suddenly seemed to remember something, and the slightly relaxed expression on his face suddenly became tense again.

"However, the strength of those guys is quite formidable, so the meat prepared for them is also quite a lot."

"I hope that when Lord Ying Mo returns, he won't discover any abnormalities in this regard."

When he said this, the County Magistrate paused.

At the same time, a glimmer of luck flashed in his eyes.

However, the County Magistrate's wife did not pay too much attention to these details.

Only when she heard him say that the problem had been initially resolved did she breathe a sigh of relief.

"...That's good then. As long as they don't cause trouble, it's fine. I just don't know what to do afterwards."

As she spoke, the County Magistrate's wife couldn't help but have the figure of Ying Mo appear in her mind.

At the same time, she thought to herself.

"What if, when Lord Ying Mo returns, I just tell him their intelligence? That way, I won't have to worry and be afraid anymore."

But as soon as these words left the County Magistrate's wife's mouth, she began to regret it.

Because she noticed that her husband's face changed, and he looked at her coldly and said.

"Shut up, you must never have such thoughts."

"Are you trying to get me killed?"

"Once Ying Mo knows that I have a connection with the Blood Blade Sect, he definitely won't let it go easily."

"By then, even if these guys from the Blood Blade Sect are caught by him,"

"he will definitely reveal everything from the past."

"At that time, even if I take the initiative to inform him of the intelligence, I will definitely not be able to avoid punishment, and it will certainly be a heavy one."

"By that time, let alone me, even others who have connections with me might not be able to escape the final sanction."

When he said this, the County Magistrate paused, then his eyes flickered slightly, and he spoke again.

"And I don't want to lose this current status and position anymore."

"This is not just the pillar of the Blood Blade Sect, but also the result of my many years of hard work; I absolutely cannot allow it to leave my hands like this."

As he spoke, the County Magistrate seemed to remember something, and his expression gradually became obsessed.

"It's already here; the things in my hands are mine no matter what, and no one can take them away."

At this moment, the County Magistrate's wife was startled after hearing her husband say this.

But she still nodded timidly and did not bring up this topic again.

"Yes, Master."

"I understand."

After speaking, seeing the County Magistrate's expression soften, she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief in her heart.

But her eyes flickered vaguely, as if she had other things on her mind.

However, regarding the change in his wife's expression,

the County Magistrate did not have much of a reaction, and didn't even pay attention.

Right now, he was still immersed in thinking about how to deal with the threat from the Blood Blade Sect's Sect Master.

And how to deal with Ying Mo returning to the city with his troops?

Time passed quickly, and the County Magistrate soon finished his meal and began to handle his affairs as usual.

At this moment, looking at the letters and materials in front of him, the County Magistrate felt a headache.

He could still enjoy the obligations brought by his status and position.

Even if it was a bit busy, he felt a sense of fulfillment, and at the same time, he was quite happy with his achievements.

But now, after the visit from the Blood Blade Sect's Sect Master last night, he was truly at a loss.

"Now that they have been settled, I must find a way to move them away; otherwise, leaving them in the city will sooner or later be a disaster."

The County Magistrate thought to himself while absent-mindedly looking at the materials in front of him.

"But this matter cannot be rushed."

"If there is a large movement of personnel in the city now, Ying Mo will definitely pay attention."

"I must find a suitable opportunity."

"Only then can I get them out without any accidents."

"Not only that, it must be as far away as possible; only then can I ensure my absolute safety."

As he thought about this, the County Magistrate suddenly had a flash of inspiration, and his whole spirit lifted.

However, he then frowned, looking dejected.

It was as if his train of thought had been blocked again, and he didn't know how to handle it.

At the same time, the Private Secretary beside him noticed the change in the County Magistrate's expression.

He was full of doubts, but he didn't dare to disturb him at this time.

Because he knew very well what the County Magistrate's temper was like.

If he disturbed him while he was clearly immersed in thought, he would definitely be scolded severely.

Therefore, the Private Secretary closed his eyes, pretending he hadn't seen anything.

On the other side, Ying Mo had already led numerous troops to surround the Blood Blade Sect's headquarters in the mountains.

"Report to my lord, the Blood Blade Sect subordinates who were resisting earlier have all been killed by our army."

"Other scattered members of the Blood Blade Sect have also been pursued; now, after another search, there are no omissions."

"Everyone has been killed, leaving no survivors."

The person speaking was a General.

And the person in front of him was Ying Mo.

At this moment, after hearing this report, Ying Mo's expression remained normal, and he just nodded slightly without saying much.

Instead, he looked at the entrance in front of him.

This was not the entrance he had found before, but another cave that looked wider and more imposing.

At that time, a group of troops chasing the fleeing Blood Blade Sect members discovered this cave.

They then organized men to surround the cave and sent troops forward to kill the many Blood Blade Sect members hiding inside.

Finally, one of the fleeing Blood Blade Sect members stood up and claimed he was willing to provide some intelligence in exchange for a chance to live.

For such a request, the General leading the team did not hesitate at all.

He captured him alive and eventually learned from his mouth that this cave was their other entrance.

568. Asked about it, traps and mechanisms! (Please subscribe!)

When he first received this news, Ying Mo couldn't help but ask about it.

You must know that the entrance he learned about from an Elder earlier was not at this location.

But after thinking about it, he quickly understood.
