Chapter 332: Falling off the Cliff (1/2)

It seems like Pei Rumo is determined to set off immediately.

Even though she was angry, she knew she had to be prepared in case anything went wrong.

Bai Luochu started to pick out the frequently used elixirs and stored them in a small bottle. Seeing as the dark clouds were starting to scatter towards the east, the rain was probably going to end soon. They were probably going to continue the journey the next day.

As expected, the rain stopped just as the sun was drooping over the horizon. As night fell, the clouds cleared.

During dinner, Pei Rumo announced to the officers and soldiers, ”We will depart the moment the sun rises. No delays are allowed.”

Pei Rumo glanced at Bai Luochu after passing down his order. Her expression didn’t change and he assumed that she understood his intentions for heading out immediately.

Early the next morning, the army started to march towards the Desolate Region once again.

Just to be safe, Pei Rumo sent out scouts in order to survey the ground. When the scouts returned safely, he felt reassured that nothing would happen. Bai Luochu was the only person who was worried and a frown filled her face.

Since she woke up, her right eyelid wouldn’t stop jumping. She felt that things weren’t as simple as she thought.

No matter what she thought, her words held no weight in the military. No matter what she said, it would be useless as no one would pay attention to her. She might as well shut her mouth to conserve some energy in case something happened.

As they marched over the landslide region, Pei Rumo and Lu Wenshu took the lead. In order to ensure her safety, they allowed Bai Luochu to follow the group at the back. After all, with such a massive army, only brainless fools would provoke them. There shouldn’t be a need to retreat.

It was too bad the heavens had other plans for Bai Luochu.

She felt that her horse was sinking into the ground and Bai Luochu quickly circulated her spirit qi to jump off the horse. The moment she landed on the ground, a piece of soil under her foot became loose. The inevitable happened. The ground she was standing on broke off the cliff face and she desperately reached out to grab the side.

“Not good! Divine Physician Bai fell off the cliff!” A soldier beside Bai Luochu realized something was wrong and immediately yelled out.
