She paused. "Chen Yi, are you coming to see Grandfather with me..."
Before she could finish, Xie Tingyun and Shen Huatang suddenly looked up at the sky and whispered a warning, "Miss Wan'er, Miss Jinghong has returned."
"Jinghong?" Xiao Wan'er was slightly stunned. Both she and Chen Yi looked up.
Xiao Jinghong descended directly into the central courtyard, standing atop a flying longsword while carrying a man with a cloth sack over his head in one hand.
She had spotted them earlier. Upon landing, she nodded in greeting. "Wan'er, Chen Yi."
Xiao Wan'er asked in surprise, "Jinghong?"
Chen Yi feigned surprise. "Jinghong, how did you get back so quickly?"
As he spoke, his gaze swept over the hooded captive, seemingly by chance. He did not need to guess; this man was undoubtedly Li Sanyuan of the Ji State Trading Company.
Xiao Jinghong replied, "I need to make a trip to the Guangyuan Capital Commandery. I'm just stopping by to rest on the way."
