Xi Xiang led these 32 Underworld Cultivators back to the Sword Sect like a bunch of candied haw on a stick.
Interrogation was the next order of business.
As it turned out, skilled at killing did not equate to being skilled at interrogating; the two were entirely different realms.

After two days of fruitless interrogations, the Sword Cultivators finally gave up their struggle and turned to Great Xia for help.
Professional matters, after all, should be left to the professionals.
Great Xia, naturally highly concerned with matters of the Underworld, responded quickly upon learning of the situation. They dispatched Cultivators from the Prison Warden Office of the Zhi Shou Tower to help with the interrogations.
