Chapter 373: Chapter 373: Not That Courageous

Yao Xuanhang eagerly wanted to lend a hand to Jiangli, offering assistance. When he heard Jiangli’s response, he felt a bit disheartened, "Alright then, Abbot, if there’s anything I can help with, please contact me at any time; I will be at your beck and call!"

Hearing his pledge of loyalty, Jiangli replied with a faint smile, "We’ll talk about it later."

After hanging up, Jiangli rubbed his chin and handed the phone back to Xia Xin.

"By the way, Ancestor," Xia Xin took the phone and asked, "Is there any chance that the ashes from the Fu Family last time could be Lin Yurong’s?"

Xia Xin remembered that the whereabouts of the ashes still seemed to be unresolved.

Jiangli, however, asserted with certainty, "It’s not."

Xia Xin paused, "... Have you found out?"

"Need to investigate?" Jiangli gave him a look of disbelief, "If it were Lin Yurong’s, I would have recognized it the first time I saw her."

Xia Xin: "..."

It seemed to make sense.

He scratched his head awkwardly, "Then whose could it be?"

"That’s hard to say," Jiangli shook his head slightly.

If it was all Fu Yuxing’s doing, with a Master Mu by his side, then the source of the ashes could be various, making it all the more difficult to trace.

Everything had to wait until they met Fu Yuxing and Master Mu to be revealed.

Seeing this, Xia Xin felt it was inappropriate to inquire further, looking empathetically toward Lin Yurong who sat to one side.

Lin Yurong was seated in a corner on the other side of Jiangli, appearing entirely dazed.

Ever since Jiangli had explained all the findings to her, she had been like this, occasionally zoning out or holding her head in pain, desperately trying to remember something. Despite her efforts, she could never seem to recall anything.

Xia Xin found it distressing to watch, to say nothing of Lin Yurong herself.

At the same time.

Fu Shiyan and Duan Jianchuan were also on a plane headed to H City.

After finishing his call with Jiangli, Fu Shiyan had taken Duan Jianchuan along and set off for H City.

Fu Shiyan’s return this time was not just for company business, but also for other hidden reasons.

Upon his return, Duan Jianchuan effectively became his personal bodyguard, under orders from his superiors, to protect Fu Shiyan at all times.

After glancing at Fu Shiyan, who had been resting with his eyes closed since boarding the plane, Duan Jianchuan whispered, "Third Brother, this sudden trip to H City, have you found some new clue?"

Fu Shiyan opened his eyes, which were clear and lucid, clearly not just waking up. He calmly shared the content of Jiangli’s call with Duan Jianchuan.

Duan Jianchuan said, "So, some clues have been discovered, and the current leads are pointing directly at Fu Yi and his family?"

Fu Shiyan adjusted the blanket on his body, "This matter is not that simple. Fu Yi doesn’t have the guts to do this on his own."

"So it was done by Fu Yuxing himself?" Duan Jianchuan speculated.

Fu Shiyan shook his head, "Not sure yet, but no matter who did it, I won’t let them get away with it this time."

Daring to disturb the family’s ancestral graves, Fu Shiyan had no intention of letting the culprit off lightly.

Duan Jianchuan understood Fu Shiyan’s thoughts, saying, "However, in H City, there are several branches of the Fu Family, deeply intertwined. It won’t be easy to make a move against Fu Yi and his family."

The Fu Family was now spread out. One branch was the Fu Family in F City, led by Fu Shiyan.

The other part of the Fu Family, however, was concentrated in H City.

This faction had long harbored dissatisfaction with Fu Shiyan’s branch. Behind the scenes, they were closely allied, their interests almost entirely bound up together, like an entangled tree.

Although Fu Yi was timid, he always presented the image of a good person and was the mainstay of this tree as well as the convergence point of their interests.

Moving against Fu Yi would not be easy.

Especially since Fu Yi’s daughter had married into the military and political Miao Family in H City a couple of years ago, making it even harder to take action against them.
