My inquiry startled Wan'er. It seemed she realized that her teacher no longer trusted her.
Wan'er quickly knelt on the ground and said that she had never once thought of betraying her teacher, let alone withholding information. She explained that 5,000 people were truly a drop in the ocean compared to the vast sky. People were constantly entering and leaving the Imperial City; it must have been an oversight by the surveillance team and certainly not a deliberate attempt to hide anything from her teacher.
I waved her off, saying it didn't matter. In any case, they were already dead men walking, which was of no consequence. I had already notified Yanhuang City to mobilize 30,000 God-Slayers. Those 5,000 people would definitely never reach Shengmu City, so there was no need to worry.
