"That's great! With Brother Xiao Chen's help, I believe that we will be able to find the thief very soon. Rest assured, Brother Xiao Chen, I will definitely write down the list of names that you want without missing a single one. "Qin Tianyue immediately smiled happily. This way, they would be able to account for it when they returned.
Feng Ming then said, "Brother Xiao Chen, why don't you come back with us now? The banquet hasn't started yet, and the people haven't left yet. That means the elixir might still be in Wildfire City."
Xiao Chen shook his head and smiled, "The elixir probably isn't in Wildfire City. If it was me, I would definitely leave Wildfire City immediately after stealing the elixir. However, it would be helpful to go over and find out more."
Yi Dantong quickly said, "I'll go too. This matter is related to me. I must get to the bottom of it, lest others say I'm a thief."
Luo Sha Palace Master smiled, "Brother Xiao Chen, let Dantong go with you. This girl's temper is just like her mother's, very stubborn. She won't change her mind. Old Man wants to see what Colored Glass Palace wants to do."
Hearing this, Xiao Chen smiled and said, "Alright, I will do my best to find the thief and clear Lady Dantong's name."
Luo Sha Palace Master is obviously going against Colored Glass Palace. Lady Dantong's matter has already made him very angry. If Colored Glass Palace dares to make a move again, Luo Sha Palace Master will probably make a move. Huo Yun thought to himself.
"Luo Sha Palace Master, don't worry. Since it wasn't your daughter who stole the elixir, I will do my best to protect her." Feng Ming Dharma Protector quickly cupped his fists and said.
"Let's go." Xiao Chen smiled and said. The few of them flew into the sky and left Luo Sha Palace with Feng Ming and the other two.
Luo Sha Palace wasn't far from Wildfire City. They could reach it in half an hour. After all, other than Dantong, the others were all in the Ghost Emperor and Ghost Lord realm.
"Feng Ming Dharma Protector, did Young City Lord make any enemies?" On the way, Xiao Chen looked at Feng Ming and asked.
Feng Ming thought for a moment, then shook his head and said, "There is no enmity. Usually, other than cultivating, the Young City Lord is playing around with his beloved. He doesn't have any enmity with anyone."
Wu Hao said, "If there is no enmity, then the thief is not after the young city lord."
"Perhaps the thief only came for the medicinal pills. The temptation of a fifth-grade medicinal pill is not small," Huo Yun said.
"Brother Xiao Chen, I'll go back and list the names immediately. We need to investigate this matter as soon as possible," Qin Tianyue said.
"Okay!" Xiao Chen smiled. Qin Tianyue then increased her speed and left first.
"Feng Ming Dharma Protector, who is the Young City Lord's beloved?" Xiao Chen asked again.
Feng Ming Dharma Protector smiled and said, "She is a rogue cultivator named Ru Xue. Three years ago, the Young City Lord saved Ru Xue in the mountains near Wildfire City. The Young City Lord took good care of her. As time passed, feelings grew. The two slowly fell in love with each other. Today is the day of their wedding. Unfortunately, this matter happened and they missed the time of the wedding ceremony. This made the City Lord and the Young City Lord furious."
Another person smiled and said, "Ru Xue is a good girl. She is kind and intelligent. She is good to everyone."
Huo Yun smiled happily and said, "She is indeed a good girl. The Young City Lord is really lucky."
After an hour, Xiao Chen and the others arrived at Wildfire City. Wildfire City was bustling with activity. All the streets were decorated with red cloth and the word 'fortune'. It was very lively.
Wildfire City's main city was densely packed with people. The huge square was filled with tables. These people were all here to congratulate the Young City Lord, but at this moment, the entire main city was very quiet.
"City Lord, the Dharma Protector and the others have returned." One of the guards said loudly. Everyone looked over.
"The Luo Sha Palace's daughter has recovered completely!" Seeing Yi Dantong appear and recover completely, everyone was shocked.
Feng Ming directly brought Xiao Chen and the others to the main city. Feng Ming then reported the matter to the City Lord. After knowing what had happened, the City Lord quickly stood up and said to everyone with a smile, "Many thanks to everyone for coming to congratulate us. However, because of a small matter, the wedding ceremony was delayed. However, after investigation, the Luo Sha Palace's daughter, Miss Dantong, did not steal the medicinal pellets. There is someone else who stole the medicinal pellets. I believe they will find out soon.
Let's drink. "After the City Lord Yun Qinghong finished speaking, he cleverly left and walked towards the main hall. Feng Ming, Xiao Chen, and the others went together. Even the Young City Lord Yun Fan hurriedly followed.
Among the people present, one person said calmly, "It seems that it has been clarified that Dantong is not the thief."
"I am Xiao Chen, greetings City Lord Yun." Entering the main hall, Xiao Chen hurriedly said politely. Wu Hao and Huo Yun also cupped their fists and greeted.
"The three of you, please take a seat. Feng Ming's Dharma Protector has already explained the matter to the Old Man. Since Dantong is not the thief, we have really wronged Miss Dantong this time. If Miss Dantong wants anything, just say it. The Old Man and your father are close friends. Later, the Old Man will definitely personally come to apologize." Yun Qinghong hurriedly said with a smile. He looked at Xiao Chen and said, "Brother Xiao Chen, I will have to trouble you with this matter. Everyone in the Wildfire City will do their best to cooperate with you."
Xiao Chen smiled and said, "Don't worry City Lord Yun, I will find out as soon as possible."
The Young City Lord Yun Fan frowned and asked, "The thief is not Dantong? What is going on? Didn't Commander Tian Yue say that he saw it with his own eyes? "
Feng Ming smiled and said, "Young City Lord, the thief is someone else. Miss Dantong doesn't know where the Young City Lord put the pills, so it is impossible for her to steal the pills in a short time. This is enough to prove that Miss Dantong is innocent."
"Yun Fan! What do you mean? You don't believe me? "Yi Dantong suddenly shouted angrily and fiercely glared at Yun Fan.
Seeing Yi Dantong's appearance, Yun Fan hurriedly said, "Miss Dantong, you misunderstood. I meant to ask who is the thief."
Yi Dantong snorted and said, "Humph! I used to treat you as a brother, but you don't believe me! "
Wu Hao said with a smile, "Miss Dantong, today is the Young City Lord's wedding day. If something like this happened, it's inevitable that the Young City Lord would misunderstand. Don't be angry because of this. Haven't we already cleared your name?"
At this time, Qin Tianyue came over and handed the name list to Xiao Chen and said, "Brother Xiao Chen, this is the name list of the people who appeared in the room today. Not a single one was left out."
Xiao Chen took the list and glanced at it. He then smiled and said, "Lord Yun, the three elders, and the commander can all be eliminated. There is no way any of you could have stolen the pills. As for the five young lords and their attendants, one of them must have been the one who stole them."
An elder asked doubtfully, "Little Brother Xiao Chen, how can you be sure that it must be one of these people?"
"Because only they know the location where the Young City Lord put the pills. Others don't know. Moreover, the thief is very familiar with the Wildfire City. Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to steal the pills without anyone knowing." Xiao Chen explained.
"It makes sense. Brother Xiao Chen is really intelligent. It seems that with Brother Xiao Chen's help, we will be able to find out soon." Yun Qinghong said with a smile.
Yun Fan said angrily, "Find out who this person is and we will not let him off easily!"
"Commander Tianyue, please take me to the room where the gifts are placed. As for the City Lord and Young City Lord, continue to entertain the guests. Leave this matter to us." Xiao Chen said as if he was very confident that he could find out who stole the pills.
"Brother Xiao Chen, thank you for your hard work." Yun Fan cupped his fists towards Xiao Chen and said with gratitude in his heart.
"You're welcome." Xiao Chen said with a smile and then left the hall with Qin Tianyue.
The room where the gifts were placed was guarded by dozens of people. The room was completely surrounded.
"Open the door!" Feng Ming and the others arrived outside the room. Feng Ming ordered and the two guards quickly opened the door.
The room was very big, half the size of a basketball court. It was filled with gifts from the people who came to congratulate. Qin Tianyue pointed to a corner and said, "Brother Xiao Chen, the Young Master put the pills here. Moreover, it was under the other gifts. It was only in a small box and was very hard to find."
Yi Dantong quickly pointed to the middle of the room and said, "I found the jade bottle here."
"Can you show me the jade bottle?" Xiao Chen looked at Qin Tianyue and asked. The latter turned her hand and the jade bottle appeared in her palm. She handed it to Xiao Chen.
Xiao Chen opened the jade bottle and smelled it. He said in his heart, "From the smell, it is indeed a fifth grade pill. Moreover, the smell of this pill is somewhat similar to the fragrance of flowers. Dantong and Qin Tianyue have this smell, but they are not the ones who stole the pills. Since they have this smell, then the person who stole the pills must also have this smell."
"Xiao Chen, did you find anything?" Huo Yun asked.
Xiao Chen shook his head and said, "I didn't find anything. The guards didn't say that no one came in. This person must have some kind of movement technique to avoid the sight of others. Otherwise, it would be difficult to enter the room. Tianyue Dharma Protector, do you know who in this list has this kind of movement technique?"
Qin Tianyue frowned slightly. She thought for a moment and said, "No. Among these people, based on my understanding, none of them have a movement technique to avoid the sight of others."
"It seems that the young masters and followers on this list can't be excluded. We have to check them one by one." Xiao Chen smiled bitterly. It was troublesome to check them one by one.
Wu Hao was shocked when he heard this. He said, "How much time will we waste if we check them one by one?"
Xiao Chen spread his hands and said with a smile, "There is no other way. We don't have any clues now."
Feng Ming said, "Brother Xiao Chen, then let's start with the people on this list."
"I need to know some things about these people and what kind of people they are. I will deduce it step by step." Xiao Chen said with a smile. He glanced at the list and said, "Let's start with this Liu Yuesong. Feng Ming Dharma Protector, what kind of person is this Liu Yuesong?"
"Liu Yuesong is the Young Palace Master of the Fire Thunder Palace. He is a straightforward person and has a good relationship with the Young City Lord. They are often together." Feng Ming said.
Xiao Chen nodded and asked, "What about this Ren Qiushui?"
"He is the Young Palace Master of the Colored Glaze Palace. It was his follower who injured Lady Dantong." Feng Ming said.
"Hmph! It must be this bastard. He is the most suspicious. "Huo Yun snorted coldly. He was sure that it was Ren Qiushui.
Yi Dantong said coldly, "That's right. It must be him who stole the elixir and wants to frame me!"
