"In addition, your lodging fees will be waived. You can stay for as long as you want."
This innkeeper was quite righteous and had a conscience.
He didn't mention a single word about the room being destroyed. Instead, he generously offered free lodging. His magnanimity had won the favor of many people.
"Innkeeper, what are you saying? We were in the wrong for destroying the room. We're already very grateful that you don't mind. Naturally, we can't stay for free. We'll pay for the lodging fees that we should pay."
Xiao Yang spoke clearly.
This moved the innkeeper. Opening an inn was nothing more than earning some living expenses.
However, since he had already spoken, there was no reason to change his mind, let alone making a promise in front of everyone. It was necessary to maintain his image. He said, "There's no need to say more. It's decided. We won't charge a single cent."
The innkeeper cupped his fists towards Xiao Yang, Zhan Ruxue, and the others. He prepared to leave. Before leaving, he said, "If there's anything I can help with, feel free to ask."
After walking far away, the waiter frowned and said, "Innkeeper, wouldn't it be a loss for us to give them free lodging?"
Pa.
The innkeeper slapped the waiter's head and scolded, "What do you know? Can't you see that there are so many people watching? Do you still want the innkeeper's image? Not to mention, we can't protect people. If everyone knows that something happened to our inn, who will stay here in the future?"
An inn, as the name implied, was a place for people to rest. However, a higher grade inn had the obligation to ensure the safety of the guests during their rest period.
This inn was considered one of the top innkeepers in Flame City. If they couldn't protect the guests during their stay, they naturally had to take responsibility.
In fact, he also thought highly of Xiao Yang, Zhan Ruxue, and the others. As the innkeeper, he had seen many different kinds of people. However, it was rare to see people with temperament and attitude like Xiao Yang and the others. People like Zhan Ruxue and Xiao Yang were definitely rich and respectable. Being on good terms with such people naturally wouldn't be beneficial.
Of course, he naturally wouldn't say such things out loud because he found Xiao Yang and the others pleasing to the eye.
"This innkeeper is not bad. He's righteous and generous."
"That's right. Otherwise, why do you think I still chose this inn? It's because of the boss."
"I think those guests aren't bad. They weren't greedy for petty gains and didn't care about the innkeeper's dereliction of duty."
Discussion after discussion spread throughout the inn.
The innkeeper was naturally overjoyed after being praised. Knowing that he had made the right bet, he couldn't help but laugh in front of the waiter.
After the onlookers praised the innkeeper and Xiao Yang's group, they began to criticize the spy.
After all, if such a good person was being targeted, then it must be the spy's fault.
At the dining table.
Xiao Yang, Zhan Ruxue, and the others were still seated. The spy who had been restrained was standing at the side. He did not have the right to sit, and they did not hold him accountable for what had just happened.
"Brother Bai, how should we deal with this person?"
Zhan Ruxue asked Xiao Yang.
He felt that things were a little tricky.
"Let's see if anyone wants to take him away. If no one wants to take him away, just kill him."
Xiao Yang said angrily.
No one knew whether these words were true or not, but the spy was so scared that his eyelids twitched wildly, his face turned pale, and his lips trembled.
"Brother Zhan, have you forgotten? The Tianzong has a martial arts technique called the Soul-searching Technique. If you want to know something, you can directly search his soul. However, in this way, the person whose soul is searched will become mentally retarded or even die, so we have to be careful. "
Xiao Yang reminded him.
He deliberately said it loudly so that the spy would hear it.
Sure enough, after the spy heard about the Soul-searching Technique, he was even more terrified and his body was shaking.
However, he also knew that once he betrayed the Liu family, he would also die. Faced with such a difficult choice, he even had the heart to die.
Just as they were discussing how to deal with the spy, a guy with the code name Lead Ion trotted over. As soon as he came in front of Xiao Yang, Zhan Ruxue, and the others, he immediately cupped his fists and bowed, saying, "Good people, seniors, I'm sorry. This guy is my childhood friend. I'm here to take him away. If he has wronged you, I apologize to you on his behalf. If you want to beat, punish, or compensate us, we'll accept it. Please let us go."
"Who are you?"
Xiao Yang narrowed his eyes and asked softly.
Lead Ion hurriedly said, "We sell information in this line of work. When it's necessary, we'll also help our employers."
"So you're saying that the Liu family hired you and the Liu family wanted me to be their guest?"
Xiao Yang deduced.
Hearing this, Lead Ion and the spy's expressions changed drastically. They quickly denied it, saying, "We heard the news from somewhere else. Seniors, please be magnanimous and let us go."
Xiao Yang waved his hand and said calmly, "You hurt us, and you want to leave like this? Of course, we can't. However, we are not people who kill indiscriminately. You can compensate us however much his life is worth. That's not too much, right? "
Lead Ion sighed and hurriedly took out his storage ring and handed it over. At the same time, he also handed over the medicinal pills and magical treasures that he had hidden. In addition, he also took the storage ring from Spy and handed it over. Only then did he say, "This is all we have. Please forgive us."
Xiao Yang nodded and signaled for them to scram.
Looking at the two storage rings, he smiled and said, "Everyone has worked hard. Let's split it evenly. Let's see if there's anything good."
His face was filled with eagerness and hope.
Actually, with Xiao Yang's experience and knowledge, he naturally wouldn't be interested in these things. However, one must know that he was currently acting as a Sixth Level Martial Master, an outer disciple of the Heavenly Sect. Thus, it was necessary for him to show such an expression.
The items given out by the lead ions were the wealth that the two Martial Great Masters had accumulated for most of their lives. Although Zhan Ruxue and the other Martial Great Masters did not think much of it, Baldy Fang, Supervisor Zhang, Little Monkey, Pang Dawan, Pang Dashan, and the other Martial Masters were extremely excited.
Zhan Ruxue also received a good looking treasure. Although he didn't care about it, it was Xiao Yang's kind intentions. He accepted it.
Xiao Yang said slowly, "I think Flame City is not a safe place. We should rest early and leave this place."
The group returned to their rooms and prepared to sleep.
"Brother Bai, you should stay in the same room as me. Otherwise, someone will cause trouble."
Zhan Ruxue, who stayed behind, said to Xiao Yang.
Xiao Yang was extremely grateful for this. He quickly agreed and followed Zhan Ruxue into Zhan Ruxue's room. As long as he was with Zhan Ruxue, the people of the Liu family would restrain themselves and not dare to act recklessly.
Inside the room.
