Chapter 322: Lu Wenshu’s Deal (2/2)
“Your First Highness, please elaborate. If your reason is convincing enough, I don’t mind making a trip to the Desolate Region.” Bai Luochu remained indifferent as though she wouldn’t be tempted no matter how enticing it was.
Pei Rumo laughed inwardly and felt kind of sad that she was treating him the same as before. Even though he was a little disappointed, he knew that she was definitely going to be interested in what he was about to reveal.
“There is a rare herb only found in the Desolate Region and it wouldn’t be a stretch to call it an immortal herb. Have you heard of the Field Pearl Flower? This rare flower was only said to exist in legends but my sources told me that a stalk bloomed in the Desolate Region.”
Bai Luochu was definitely tempted. However, she didn’t immediately agree. “That’s it? Putting aside the fact that even if such a mystical herb exists, there will definitely be a terrifying spirit beast standing guard beside it. Even if we know of its whereabouts, it will be impossible to retrieve the herb.”
Pei Rumo never thought so far ahead and he stood there blankly.
Bai Luochu became unable to make up her mind and she found an excuse to worm her way out of giving the First Prince a definite reply. “Why don’t you head on back first? If I wish to go, I will definitely send you a message.”
Pei Rumo had no other choice but to return to the First Prince’s residence to wait for a reply.
When Bai Luochu saw that Pei Rumo had gone far away, she immediately instructed Cai Ling, “Guard the general’s residence. I am going to the Remote Paddy Inn and you cannot let anyone into the residence while I am gone.”
It had been a long time since Cai Ling saw Bai Luochu acting so serious. She immediately understood the severity of the situation and acknowledged, “Mistress doesn’t have to worry. With this servant guarding the residence, everything will be fine.”
Bai Luochu relaxed when she heard Cai Ling’s guarantee and she quickly headed towards the secluded courtyard. Entering the secret room, she used the tunnel to head for the Remote Paddy Inn.
When Bai Luochu arrived at the Remote Paddy Inn, Ying Lan had already found out about the expedition to the Desolate Region. Just as he wanted to look for Bai Luochu, she appeared in front of him.
