Capítulo 292: Chapter 281: Mysterious Plane 36

"You may ask now," Mo Si told Xia Xi.

Initially they planned to interrogate Wan Ting into confessing the truth, but upon arriving at the mansion, they found that strategy to be unfeasible. Confusing him and then directly asking was the best approach.

Mo Si brought two chairs over, sat down with Xia Xi, and faced Ninth Master.

Xia Xi stared at Ninth Master and asked, "Were you the one who had Wan Ting light the fire at the Pear Garden three years ago, burning Qin Qi to death?"

"Yes"

"Why did you burn her alive?"

Ninth Master looked at them with a muddled gaze, speaking faintly, "Initially, I was afraid she had overheard Wan Ting and me scheming to poison the theatre audience's tea with Wushi San. Then I found out she was born in a Yang year, Yang month, Yin day, Yin hour, making her the perfect focal point for the Hundred Evil Transport Array. The harmony of Yin and Yang, perpetual life and death, could offer me a lifetime of wealth and smooth sailing.
