Chapter 358: Grim Situation
“Luo Chu . ” Pei Rumo rushed over with an extremely anxious expression when he saw Bai Luochu coming out of her room .
Bai Luochu already knew that eccentric innkeeper was one of the members of the Palace of Brilliance Resurgence, so she wasn’t as flustered as Pei Rumo . She couldn’t understand the meaning behind Pei Rumo’s anxiety and she thought something had happened at the borders of the Desolate Region . She immediately asked, “What happened? Did something happen to the soldiers?”
When Pei Rumo saw that Bai Luochu was unscathed, he let out a breath of relief and said, “Nothing . I am just worried for you . After all, that innkeeper is a little strange and it is hard not to be vigilant against him . ”
Bai Luochu sighed before laughing in her heart . If Qin Feng knew that his original intention to take care of her would be misunderstood by Pei Rumo, he would probably challenge Pei Rumo to a duel .
“Come on, let’s go and have breakfast . ” When Bai Luochu saw there was nothing wrong, she simply headed for the main hall .
After arriving at the main hall, Bai Luochu noticed that Qin Feng had already prepared breakfast and he was waiting for her . It was obvious that the dishes were just prepared as they were still steaming .
After seeing Bai Luochu and Pei Rumo, Qin Feng quickly greeted them, “Please enjoy your breakfast . It’s better to enjoy the food while it’s hot . ”
His attitude was a world apart from his harsh and unkind self the day before . Pei Rumo became even more suspicious as he stared at Qin Feng from the corner of his eye . He didn’t understand how someone’s personality could change so drastically . Could it be . . .
Pei Rumo turned to look at Bai Luochu . Instead of saying that the innkeeper’s attitude changed for the better, it would be more accurate to say that he was paying more attention to her . Could it be that this innkeeper has some sort of strange taste? Is he into guys? Pei Rumo felt disgusted and he shook his head to clear his ridiculous thoughts .
How can Luo Chu be related to the words ‘pretty boy’? She is more like the man-eating flower .
Bai Luochu took her seat and was about to eat breakfast . When she turned to look at Pei Rumo, she saw him standing around like a useless pillar . She called out to him, “Your First Highness, are you going to skip breakfast? Any later and the food will be cold . ”
When Pei Rumo heard Bai Luochu calling out to him, he quickly took his seat and started eating .

After eating breakfast, Pei Rumo escorted Bai Luochu back to her room before preparing to investigate . He didn’t expect Bai Luochu to actually call out to him, “It is better for Your First Highness to wait for a moment . Why not listen to my report before going out to investigate? You’ll be able to narrow down your area of search . ”
After hearing Pei Rumo’s statement, he abruptly turned around and stared into her eyes . “What report are you talking about? Why do you have information about the Desolate Region?”
Bai Luochu already knew that Pei Rumo was a doubtful individual and if she were to suddenly pull out the report on the Desolate Region, he wouldn’t believe her . She wasn’t in a hurry and decided to explain everything to him . Waving her hand to indicate for Pei Rumo to sit, Bai Luochu started her explanation . “Don’t be in a hurry . Why don’t we sit down and have a good chat?”
Pei Rumo was clear about Bai Luochu’s personality . She wouldn’t speak of something if she wasn’t confident in it . Right now, it seemed like she had confirmed something . Even if he was suspicious, Pei Rumo took a seat as he patiently waited for her to speak .
“Do you remember that I had always been suspicious about something after entering the Desolate Region?” Bai Luochu poured a cup of warm water for Pei Rumo and pushed it in front of him .
Pei Rumo stayed silent for a moment before replying, “You were wondering if someone entered the Desolate Region before us . ”

“That’s right . I can now confirm the fact that people have indeed arrived before us . Moreover, there are more than one group of people . ”
Pei Rumo immediately became suspicious after listening to Bai Luochu’s deduction . He didn’t understand the source of her confidence . He revealed a puzzled expression as he continued to ask, “You might have incredible foresight, but a guess is still a guess . How can you be certain that someone arrived ahead of us? We have yet to see anyone else ever since arriving in the Desolate Region . ”
Even though Pei Rumo had his suspicions, Bai Luochu had not verified them .
“I think that Your First Highness has already guessed the source of the information . I shall not conceal if from you any longer . The innkeeper was the one who gave me this piece of information . ”
“What’s in it for him?” Pei Rumo knew that the eccentric innkeeper definitely had a request for Bai Luochu .
Bai Luochu had an indifferent expression as though this matter wasn’t related to her . She casually replied, “He needs me to do something for him . ”

Pei Rumo closed his eyes and gnashed his teeth together, “What request did he have for you . . . ” Pei Rumo felt that if he wasn’t able to accept the innkeeper’s condition, he was probably going to charge out to tear him into pieces .
“Nothing much . He has been plagued by an illness for a long time now . When he saw that I was carrying a medicine box, he knew that I was a physician . He wanted to look for someone to prescribe him some medicine but I cured his illness completely . In exchange, I asked him a few questions about the recent situation in the Desolate Region . ”
“Is it really that simple?” Pei Rumo heard Bai Luochu’s explanation and immediately let out a sigh of relief .
In response, Bai Luochu nodded her head .
“If that is the case, it seems like your guess was right . There are plenty of infiltrators in the Desolate Region . Why are they here anyway? Is there something in the Desolate Region they deeply desire to possess? It’s not possible for so many people to enter the Desolate Region for a single Field Pearl Flower . ” Pei Rumo felt invigorated and started to discuss the situation in the Desolate Region .
“There are different groups of people who entered the Desolate Region . Some of them are from sects and there are some who brought an army along with them . In other words, many nations and sects have also entered the Desolate Region in order to take a slice of the pie . ” Bai Luochu explained before waiting quietly for Pei Rumo to gather his thoughts .
