The bold, bandit-like suggestion had caught not only Master Duo off guard; even Jiang Yue hadn't seen it coming.
Master Duo stared at San Gou in surprise, evidently finding the Mushroom Person's audacious suggestion hard to believe. Weren't they Mushroom People? Mushroom People had always been cautious. How could this kid make such a brazen suggestion? It didn't fit their nature at all.
Jiang Yue felt a little anxious, but he couldn't rush to explain. He knew that once Master Duo became suspicious, he couldn't act too hastily. If San Gou had said something wrong and Jiang Yue hurried to explain, it would only make Master Duo even more suspicious.
He merely scolded him in a slightly displeased tone. "You're quite the clever one, aren't you? Aren't you afraid of getting us into trouble? This is Flower Demon Clan territory. Are you trying to make Master Duo offend people?"
Master Duo chuckled and said to Jiang Yue, "Don't go putting words in his mouth. I'll ask Jin Tong myself. Why did you think of robbing the other guests?"
San Gou might have been simple-minded, but he wasn't stupid. When Jiang Yue scolded him, he knew he'd said the wrong thing.

At the other guild, we got targeted by those Lizardmen just because we wouldn't let them cut in line. They wouldn't let go of the matter
