Chapter 26: The Black Store (Part 1)

The commotion last night had left the inn in a state of turmoil, but the end was quite simple.

After all, Sun Yixie had money.

For a village inn like this, not to mention compensating for a roof, even if he were to buy the entire place, Sun Yixie wouldn't bat an eye; seeing the money in place, the innkeeper naturally wouldn't say much more.

Although Huang Donglai and Sun Yixie could basically deduce that she was the "faceless woman" behind the Lu Zhou incident, not having resolved her last night left them somewhat uneasy.

The enemy was hidden while they were exposed; on their subsequent journey, they could only be doubly cautious to prevent another ambush.

Of course, having such an enemy appear wasn't entirely a bad thing...
