There was no evidence. The universe was too huge to look for a few fugitives. Most importantly, the person involved was obviously not the main target for the Top Operatives. Their target was Hong Dali. Therefore, Jiang Dongliu and Li Xuancheng did not need to worry about the Top Operatives wasting time searching for such a small character.
Furthermore, they accomplished three things by saying that. First, they confirmed that this planet was indeed Hong Dali's home planet. Second, it showed that Hong Dali was meticulous. Third, they removed themselves from the situation—look, everything was planned by Hong Dali. We did not notice it before…
"Trash!" The silver-haired man was indeed depressed.
