Chapter 831: Tell Them to Scram

　　Gu Bailu swallowed. “You’re making me drool. My lord, let’s go get some noodles.”

　　“Okay.”

　　The two of them walked out of the inn together. The innkeeper sent them to the carriage and told the coachman the location of Small Shop Noodles. He only went back inside after watching the carriage leave.

　　A guest in the main hall asked, “Manager, when did you become so enthusiastic? Are these two people very powerful?”

　　The shopkeeper glanced at him coldly. “It’s not your place to ask about their identities.”

　　That person chuckled. “I spoke out of turn.”

　　He sat obediently and drank his tea.

　　When the manager walked into the back room, a man walked out of the shadows and asked, “Are you sure it’s Prince Zi from Southern Glory Empire?”

　　“I’m certain. I’ve already sent someone to the palace to report it. Go and keep an eye on them and try to figure out why they’re here,” the manager instructed with a cold face.

　　“Yes.”

　　The manager narrowed his eyes. The Grand Tutor had reached the most crucial stage in his pill refinement and absolutely nothing could go wrong.

　　Were Prince Zi and Princess Zi here for the pill refined by the Grand Tutor?

　　The pill that he was refining this time was extraordinary. Anyone who knew about it would want it.

　　As long as he succeeded, unifying the entire continent wouldn’t just be a dream.

　　Rising Clouds Empire had been conserving its strength for so many years. It had accumulated so much wealth in order to unify the entire continent in one swoop.

　　The young emperor of Cloud Rising had such aspirations. Everyone had to cooperate fully.

　　However, most of the people who had come to Rhine City recently were people with unfathomable strength. They were the top experts on the continent. This medicinal pill had to be protected properly.

　　The manager compiled a list of the information that he knew and called for someone to deliver it to the Grand Tutor.

　　On his own, Prince Zi wasn’t a threat, but he wasn’t the only one who had come.

　　The manager sighed.

　　When Gu Bailu and the others arrived at Small Shop Noodles, they were surprised to find that it was very simple and crude.

　　It wasn’t some white marble building, but a neat shack along the river. A flag hung above the shack, and three words were written on it: Small Shop Noodles.

　　Even these three words were written very casually.

　　However, the long row of tables and chairs outside the shack were filled with people. Business was booming.

　　There was no empty seat at all.

　　Gu Bailu almost drooled when she smelled the aroma of food from the stove in the shack from where she was standing on the side.

　　There were so many people and it smelled so good. It had to be delicious.

　　“Clear a table,” Feng Qingtian said to Ye Ying.

　　Ye Ying brought the brawny man along to look for a waiter. The waiter immediately came out to take a look and then quickly said something to a nearby table.

　　Without another word, the people at the table went to crouch under a willow tree along the river with their bowls.

　　Gu Bailu then realized that more than twenty people were squatting under the willow tree, eating from their bowls.

　　This… Gu Bailu felt this was bullying people a little too much.

　　“My lord, I can wait…” Gu Bailu said in embarrassment.

　　Feng Qingtian pulled her down. “You’re almost drooling. What are you waiting for?”

　　Gu Bailu frowned. “My lord, if someone of a higher status than us comes, should we give way or not?”

　　“No.” Feng Qingtian didn’t hesitate.

　　Gu Bailu sniffed. Forget it. She shouldn’t be so unlucky as to run into trouble again.

　　Who knew if she had jinxed herself, but just as the noodles were served, she heard a spoiled reprimand. “I like that spot. Tell them to scram.”
