After a moment, a smile of surprise spread across his face, and he said excitedly, "Ran Yuan?! It really is you!"

Because the movement was too large, it affected the wound left by the previous fight. Jiang Yu couldn't help but gasp, and a trace of pain flashed across his face.

Seeing this, Xu Ranyuan, instead of trying to comfort him, teased him, "Humph, I was wondering which unlucky person was tricked so badly, but I didn't expect it to be you!"

Jiang Yu was helpless and could only smile bitterly and shake his head.

"How can I compare with you? You studied pharmacology and are immune to all poisons, while I am just an ordinary person in the martial arts world. If you hadn't appeared in time today, I really don't know how this would have ended."

As he spoke, he frowned in pain again, but still couldn't hide the joy of reunion. "But then again, I'm really lucky to meet you at this time."

At this moment, hurried footsteps and noisy voices were heard in the distance. Following the sound, I saw a group of government officials holding torches hurriedly coming towards this side. The light of the torches swayed in the night, reflecting their serious faces.

Xu Ranyuan's expression was calm. He raised his hand and gently adjusted his moon-white robe. He walked forward with steady steps and said, "Are you here to arrest this man? I've already subdued him. Just drag him away."

As he spoke, he raised his foot and kicked the unconscious flower thief on the ground, a look of disgust on his face, "What a pervert, a grown man actually wears women's clothes, I don't know what he is up to."

Xu Ranyuan had just arrived in Junhua City and knew nothing about what had happened in the city recently. Tonight, when he saw someone doing evil, it was purely out of his inherent enthusiasm and sense of justice. He saw injustice and helped out.

The captain of the police in charge of the case walked forward quickly and looked at the flower thief who was subdued on the ground, his face full of surprise and gratitude.

He bowed to Xu Ranyuan and said sincerely, "Thank you so much, brave man! You have eliminated a great scourge for our Junhua City."

As he was speaking, the captain's gaze passed Xu Ranyuan and caught sight of Jiang Yu standing behind him. His eyes froze for a moment, and then a hint of surprise and concern flashed across them.

He had dealt with Jiang Yu several times and knew that he was a chivalrous man who was willing to fight for justice.

Seeing the pain left on Jiang Yu's face, he couldn't help but frown slightly. He quickly stepped forward, his tone full of concern for others, "Brother Jiang, you've suffered so much! Do you need me to arrange for someone to take you to the clinic for treatment? Don't force yourself to hold on."

Jiang Yu endured the pain and bowed in return, saying, "Thank you for your concern. There's no need to bother. My friend is the doctor. I'll ask him to help with the treatment later. Let's take this flower thief back to the government office first to prevent any further trouble."

After hearing this, the captain nodded, thanked Xu Ranyuan and Jiang Yu again, and then directed the bailiffs to drag the flower thief up from the ground and bring him back to the government office.

As the footsteps gradually faded away, the noisy alley returned to peace again, leaving only Jiang Yu and Xu Ranyuan.

After the officials left, Xu Ranyuan quickly walked to Jiang Yu's side and held Jiang Yu's arm. "Which inn are you staying in now? You need to find a place to stay first so that I can help you heal your eyes."

Jiang Yu shook his head slightly, his voice a little tired: "I'm not staying at the inn. Please take me to Taoyuan Lane in Beifang City. My house is there."

At first, Jiang Yu planned to have Xu Ranyuan treat his eyes outside first, and then return after his condition improved, so as not to worry Cheng Yuntao. But then he thought again, this injury might not heal in a short time, and if he didn't return all night, Cheng Yuntao would be worried.

Anyway, this matter cannot be concealed, so it is better to go back early.

Upon hearing this, Xu Ranyuan supported Jiang Yu steadily as they walked forward, while curiously asking, "For those of us who travel the world, staying in an inn when we pass through is considered a luxury. Most of the time, we sleep outdoors. And you, on the other hand, actually bought a house here. Are you planning to stay here long-term? Although Junhua City is bustling, wouldn't it be boring to stay here all the time?"

He paused, then spoke enthusiastically, "Since we last parted, I've traveled to many places on my own and gained a lot. What about you? Where have you been?"

Jiang Yu said calmly, "I've always been in Junhua City and haven't been anywhere else."

Xu Ranyuan was surprised and was about to ask again, but when he saw the painful expression on Jiang Yu's face, he swallowed the words back.

He quickly took out a small porcelain bottle from his arms, poured out a detoxification pill, and stuffed it into Jiang Yu's mouth: "Eat this first, it will make you feel better."

Jiang Yu took it as he was told, and immediately felt the discomfort in his body eased a little, but his vision was still blurry.

Seeing this, Xu Ranyuan quickened his pace: "Go back quickly, I still need to give you an acupuncture to restore your eyesight."

The two walked hurriedly in the night, the moonlight shining on them, stretching out their shadows side by side.

Based on the information Jiang Yu provided intermittently, Xu Ranyuan finally stopped outside a house.

He raised his hand and knocked on the door, his voice clear: "Is anyone there?"

Jiang Yu took a few steps forward, stood close to the door, and called out, "Yun Tao."

But a moment later, the candle in the yard suddenly lit up, and the dim light shone through the window paper, casting a warm hue on the yard. Then, there was the sound of hurried footsteps, and with a "creak", the door opened, revealing Cheng Yuntao's beautiful little face.

Her hair was a little messy, obviously she had gotten up in a hurry, but even so, the gentleness and smartness between her eyebrows still made people's eyes shine.

When Cheng Yuntao saw Jiang Yu being supported by Xu Ranyuan, the color instantly drained from her face, and her voice trembled a little: "Jiang Yu, what's wrong with you?"

Xu Ranyuan stood aside, looking at Cheng Yuntao in the dim light. He was a little absent-minded for a moment. The dim halo outlined the girl's delicate features, and the anxious light flashed in her eyes, making her even more charming.

He was so smart that he could see the unusual intimacy between the two at a glance, and instantly understood why Jiang Yu stayed in Junhua City.

I couldn't help but sigh in my heart, it's true that young people's love is long-lasting, but heroes are short-lived.

Xu Ranyuan had witnessed Jiang Yu's heroic figure galloping through the martial arts world, so naturally he didn't want him to be buried in this ordinary Junhua City.

Jiang Yu opened his mouth, wanting to say something to reassure Cheng Yuntao, but when the words came to his lips, he didn't know where to start, so he could only speak vaguely.

Seeing his expression, Xu Ranyuan couldn't help but snort coldly and said bluntly, "When he was catching a thief, the evil thief sprinkled poison powder on him and injured his eyes."

Hearing this, Cheng Yuntao's eyes reddened with heartache. She held Jiang Yu's face and carefully examined his eyes: "That thief is really despicable! Jiang Yu, are your eyes particularly uncomfortable now..."

Seeing this, Xu Ranyuan comforted him, "Don't worry, it's not a big problem. I will definitely be able to cure him."

Cheng Yuntao quickly moved aside and welcomed the two of them in. While leading the way, he said anxiously, "Hurry, get inside."
