Li Sheng's gesture blocked everything his deputy was about to say.
Once he had issued the order, he couldn't possibly stop halfway.
Moreover.
"I just need you to say that it was because we didn't detect An Wuping's biological signal, so we presumed An Wuping died in the battle with the Psychic of Zuo Jing. Is that difficult?"
The deputy felt a headache at the thought that An Wuping's death might cause several factions, especially the Spiritual Ability Association and Audan Star Realm, to come questioning.
If there was clear evidence that An Wuping died in battle, it would be fine; he would have ample excuse to deflect the issue.
But the current situation was obviously different.
It was Li Sheng who ordered the fire cleansing.
And An Wuping might have died from Li Sheng's order after his battle with the Psychic of Zuo Jing; that's the crux.
Li Sheng, as the commander, was primarily responsible for combat matters.
