Xu Shu nodded, understanding.
These people were meticulous in their dealings, always maintaining a one-way communication from superiors to subordinates. Breaking through using just one informant was highly unlikely.
Moreover, there were likely many similar groups of individuals, who were actively engaged in various residential areas, bought off by the White Emperor Army with money; leveraging their status as locals to secretly promote Esoteric Buddhism and then collecting rewards from the White Emperor Army.
As for what followed, they didn't involve themselves at all, so torturing them was pointless.
Realizing this, Xu Shu knew that pursuing this matter further would be meaningless. All the leads would break off at the Heroic Society.
