“We were passing by.”

His gaze landed once again on Feng Tianlan’s face.

“I almost forgot, congratulations to the two of you.”

Feng Tianlan’s eyes flickered slightly. “Thank you.”

Xiao Jingye clicked his tongue.

He hadn’t said a word earlier, but now that he offered congratulations, Prince Lan immediately responded.

It seemed that the rumors were true that Prince Lan did indeed have a fondness for Gu Qingluan.

Little did he expect that the man who had slain a seventh-grade Saint Beast back then was none other than the Royal Prince Lan of the Holy Heaven Dynasty.

What was even more unexpected was that Royal Prince Lan would marry Gu Qingluan.

However, considering Gu Qingluan’s abilities, Xiao Jingye felt that she and Prince Lan were a suitable match.

She was such a young Saint and possessed extraordinary medical skills.

If it weren’t for their less-than-pleasant first encounter, he wouldn’t have been so taken aback and resistant to her.

Now that he overcame that initial hurdle, facing Gu Qingluan and Feng Tianlan again, he finally regained his composure.

“Father’s letter mentioned that my mother’s health has greatly improved. He asked me to thank you on their behalf if I see you,” he sincerely told Gu Qingluan.

Gu Qingluan replied, “I’ve received the consultation fee; there’s no need for such formality.”

Xiao Jingye shook his head. “Only you can save my mother. Without you, no matter how much money we have, it’s of no use. We can’t buy back my mother’s well-being. So, this word of thanks is necessary.”

He naturally had a kind and innocent appearance. If he didn’t reveal any sharp edges, it was easy for others to have a favorable impression of him.

The innkeeper, along with others in the inn, watched him closely. They couldn’t help but think that this little troublemaker changed his demeanor too quickly. If it weren’t for the fact that they were almost killed by him earlier, they would find it hard to believe that he had such a fierce side.

After chatting for a while, several guards returned from outside. They were the ones sent to investigate the inns and residences.

They were concerned about the accuracy of their judgment, so they brought back a few pieces of silver-thread charcoal.

Gu Qingluan examined them and found that the charcoal in the inn was mixed with Red Star, while the charcoal in the residences was clean.

The guards had only visited three nearby inns, but there were dozens of inns in Yeyu City.

Therefore, they couldn’t be certain that all the inns had problematic charcoal.

Xiao Jingye had many men at his disposal, so he ordered more guards to investigate various inns separately.

Not long after the guards had left, the ones sent to the mine quickly returned.

The silver-thread charcoal they brought back did not contain Red Star.

“No wonder the incidents all occurred in inns. It seems they are targeting people staying in inns.”

Gu Qingluan replied, “To be precise, they seem to be targeting outsiders.”

Most of the residents of Yeyu City who stayed in inns were outsiders, although there were a few locals who also chose to stay in inns, but they were comparatively fewer in number.

Xiao Jingye furrowed his brow. “Is this a conspiracy targeting outsiders?”

Gu Qingluan replied, “It’s hard to say for sure. Perhaps they believe that incidents involving outsiders are easier to cover up.”

Outsiders were often vulnerable and isolated. When something happened to them, it often went unnoticed, and even if they had companions, they usually couldn’t stir many problems.

“Do you think this could be the work of the Yu family?” Xiao Jingye asked.

The innkeeper, unable to hold back, chimed in, “But the silver-thread charcoal from the mine is fine, right? It shouldn’t be the Yu family, should it?”

Gu Qingluan said, “I think it’s a good idea to have the person in charge of the Yu family come here to discuss this matter together.”

Xiao Jingye’s sharp eyes narrowed. “I’ve already sent someone to invite them.”

Just as he finished speaking, two people walked in from outside.

The one in the lead wore a brown robe and a purple crown. He appeared to be in his forties, with a lean face and clear eyes.

“Master Yu!” The innkeeper greeted the arriving figure with respect.

Yu Jingting entered the hall confidently and calmly glanced at the people inside. When his eyes met Gu Qingluan’s face, he paused for a moment before smiling and nodding politely to the innkeeper.

“I heard that there are issues with the silver-thread charcoal provided by our Yu family?”

The innkeeper quickly glanced at Gu Qingluan and Xiao Jingye. Seeing that they didn’t object, he briefly explained the situation.

Yu Jingting furrowed his brows. “This matter is definitely not the doing of my Yu family. It’s highly likely that someone is trying to frame us, or perhaps they simply added something to the silver-thread charcoal for their convenience.

Rest assured, I, Yu Jingting, will not tolerate the person behind this or their lackeys.”

The innkeeper breathed a sigh of relief. “I have full faith in your integrity, Master Yu. If you are willing to work together to uncover the truth, it will undoubtedly be more effective.”

Xiao Jingye interjected, “Don’t waste time with flattery. Let’s talk about it once we find the mastermind.”

Yu Jingting gave him a brief glance.

The innkeeper felt a knot in his heart. This little troublemaker was so impolite in his speech. Hopefully, he wouldn’t offend Master Yu.

If there was a fight in the inn, he would be the one to suffer!

Yu Jingting, however, showed no signs of anger. He asked, “What do you need me to do?”

“Find out who tampered with the silver-thread charcoal. Since there are issues with silver-thread charcoal from so many inns, the root of the problem must be traced back to the Yu family. Investigate who is responsible for managing the silver-thread charcoal or handling its sales, and who is in charge of liaising with the inns.”

Yu Jingting nodded solemnly.

Someone had meddled with his business without any regard for the Yu family’s reputation. He wanted to know who had the audacity to challenge him in his own territory..
