Chapter 211: Protecting in the Dark

When the guard saw Pei Qingfeng's look of disdain, he understood that his master was looking down on him. However, he wasn't familiar with the Phoenix King Valley Elder. How would he know what the elder was thinking? The guard immediately shook his head and said earnestly to Pei Qingfeng, "This subordinate doesn't know the Phoenix King Valley Elder's intention. Master, please enlighten me."

Pei Qingfeng closed his eyes with his brows tightly locked together. No one knew whether he was concerned about the mental ability of his guard or Bai Luochu's safety.

After quite a while, Pei Qingfeng opened his eyes and turned to face his personal guard, "The Phoenix King Valley Elder is staying behind to find the culprit. This matter is probably related to Luo Chu and if the Elder finds out, he will never let her off. That is why you lot are going over to protect her!"

"She made such a huge mess and we are the ones cleaning up after her..." The guard muttered softly as though he was expressing his dissatisfaction with Bai Luochu.

"What are you mumbling about? If I ask you to do something, get it done! Am I the prince or are you the prince?" Pei Qingfeng might not have heard it clearly, but he knew that his guard was complaining about Bai Luochu.

Pei Qingfeng was the master and when he gave his orders, the guard could only comply. Before the guard could leave, he was called back by Pei Qingfeng.

"Come back." Pei Qingfeng said. In his mind, the guard felt that Pei Qingfeng changed his mind about meddling in Bai Luochu's affairs. However, Pei Qingfeng's words almost caused him to choke.

"Send some of the skilled secret guards instead. If regular guards go, they will probably attract more attention."

After hearing Pei Qingfeng's instructions, that guard secretly rolled his eyes. Who in the world was Luo Chu to make his Master, the well known women avoider, go to such lengths? If his master became the future emperor, Luo Chu would be a calamity to the nation. Who knew if his master would burn down several cities to see her smile.

That guard originally wanted to persuade his master, but when he thought about how his master disregarded all his principles when dealing with her, he decided to keep quiet. He would just be asking for a scolding... It wasn't worth it.

In the end, the guard commander explained the situation to the secret guard commander and asked him to dispatch several men to the general's residence. After the guard commander left, Pei Qingfeng was finally able to relax.

I don't know what the Phoenix King Valley Elder is planning, but I hope I can stop it.

Pei Qingfeng looked through the window in the direction of the general's residence.

He wasn't the last person to care about Bai Luochu. When Lu Wenshu learned of the Phoenix King Valley's departure, he was able to seek them out to feel the depressing aura they were emitting. He felt that it was somewhat strange for Feng Wan'er to be leading the group and when he finally turned to look at the elder's gloomy expression, a rough guess of the situation popped up in his head.

She must have made a move.

Lu Wenshu gently placed down the teacup in his hand while the corner of his mouth curled upwards. It was as though happy memories resurfaced in his mind. It was true that the Phoenix King Valley had never gained the upper hand when dealing with her. Not in her past life and not in this life either.

What did Bai Luochu actually steal from them? Lu Wenshu poured another cup of tea for himself as his thoughts spun. Before long, he came to a conclusion.
