Ling Xiao's expression remained very indifferent, and he did not show the slightest sign of nervousness when faced with Elder Jin's interrogation.
The more nervous he became, the more likely he would be to misspeak.
Moreover, he had done nothing to feel guilty about. One does not fear a knock at the door in the middle of the night if one has done nothing wrong. However, there were some matters that he still had to conceal for the time being.
"Let's talk about the mission first."
Ling Xiao slowly replied, "The reason the three of them failed is actually quite simple. It's because not only were they weak, but also too stupid! Knowing that the Plague Demon King excels in plagues and array formations, they didn't bother to bring any pills to ward off the plague, nor did they ask a disciple skilled in array formations to accompany them."
"Such arrogance, do you actually believe you are stronger than they were?"
"That's right!"
Ling Xiao nodded, full of confidence.
