Insanely Pampered Wife: Divine Doctor Fifth Young Miss Chapter 273

Chapter 273: Blocking their way forward
"Nalan Clan?" Jade furrowed her eyebrows saying, "The Nalan Clan isn't here anyway, you'll just be keeping the rooms. Give them to the Sima Clansmen first."
"No can do." Li Mu said, "The Nalan Clansmen have already arrived and will be heading here today."
"Can't you take out even one room?" Jade was getting angry.
"Sister, I have already confirmed everything with the Nalan Clansmen, I wouldn't be able to account to them when the time came." Li Mu said.
"You… fine. I'll give you this place. I'll take them elsewhere." Jade huffed.
"Sister, they're merely people you met on the road, why should you care about them." Li Mu said unsatisfactorily.
"They helped me before, so I said that I would take them to Saint City. How could I just abandon them halfway. Since you've said that you want to wait for the Nalan Clan here, I'll go with them." Jade left right after she threw down these words.
"Sister disciple!"
"Sister Disciple!"
"Miss!"
"Brother Disciple, Sister Disciple, she… what do we do now?" Red Cloud looked at Li Mu.
Li Mu laughed coldly, saying, "All the inns in this small city have been fully booked. She'll have wasted a trip there no matter which inn she goes to. She will naturally return once she find there's nowhere she can stay."
"Then those people…" Red Cloud said with some worry.
"Don't care about them, it would be best if they died!" Li MU turned around and returned to his table after he finished speaking.
Jade only thought of Sima You Yue and the others once she returned to the streets. She turned around and said to them, "I'm really sorry about just now. Brother Li has always been that way. I'll take you to another inn."
She had already spoken thusly, so she didn't say anything else but just followed after her.
"Is that brother disciple of yours very powerful?" Fatty Qu asked.
"He's more talented, so he has my father's favor." Jade said, "But I don't like him, I don't like how unbridled he is."
"Aren't you the Miss?" The innkeeper just now had addressed her this way.
"Although I am the Miss, but my talent cannot compare to his. He's more important to everyone else." Jade said, "Alright, let's not talk about him anymore. Let's go check out other inns."
It was a pity that they had walked the entire stretch, but not a single inn had an empty room.
At this point, the sky was already beginning to darken. Sima You Yue said, "Since there's no room, why don't we go to the mountains to find a place to pitch camp."
"No way. It's very dangerous outside. Even if my father and the others were around, they would not dare to randomly pitch camp outside." Jade immediately disagreed.
"No problem, in any case, it's just one night." Sima You Yang said.
"Mm, I also agree with pitching camp outside. I don't want to spend a night on the streets." Sima You Qing said.
"Miss Jade, you should not go outside to stay now!" A shopkeeper of the inn said, "It's more dangerous outside now than before."
"Why is that?"
"The reason why so many people have come here to this small city is because it's not safe outside and everyone has come here to hide. If you all go out now, it will be even more dangerous." Shopkeeper said.
"Can't even stay there for a night?" Sima You Qing said.
Shopkeeper waved his hand, saying, "The mercenaries who came back said that something has happened in the direction towards Saint City. Many spirit beasts have come over here. If you don't want anything to happen to you, it would be best to wait here before going over."
"Oh right, how could I forget about that." Jade furrowed her eyebrows.
"What's up?" Sima You Yue asked.
Jade sighed, saying, "Ten Thousand Beast Mountain will have an occurance like this once every few years. All the spirit beasts on the mountain will be very agitated, and even Saint City will have to construct a great array. It lasts about a month. Looks like we will have to remain here for a few days.
"That's right. This is it. It has already been going on for half a month, so there should be half a month remaining. Why don't you stay in this large hall for half a month." Shopkeeper said, "Everything is first come first served, I can't let ask others to give way to you. If it were just one or two rooms, I still could. But you just have too many people, it's really hard for me."
"No problem. Shopkeeper, just tell me which area has a rather wide expanse of land." Sima You Yue said.
"You all really want to head outside?" Shopkeeper saw how stubborn Sima You Yue and the others were, and sighed, "There's a lake not far from here and the s.p.a.ce around it isn't bad. It's also quite close to here, so if anything happens, you can still run back if you can grab any opportunity."
Sima You Yang was a bit puzzled and asked, "The Saint City has already set up their large array, so why haven't you all activated your protection array?"
"It's because those spirit beasts are focused on attacking Saint City that they have to activate their large array. However, its impact here is rather small, so they usually just activate the normal array. We can wait for any situation to arise before activating the great protection array." Jade explained.
"That's right." Shopkeeper added on, "This small array will not stop anyone from entering and leaving, but once we activate the large on, the litty city will be blocked out from the outside and n.o.body can enter or leave."
Sima You Yue sighed, "Looks like this isn't a good time for us to be here!"
Jade was rather vexed as she apologised, "I'm sorry, It was because I found something that I wanted and, in my joy, I forgot about something important like this. If I had told you of it earlier, you all would not have had to come here. Why don't you all persevere here just through tonight, and head back to the little city tomorrow."
"No problem, since we've come, we naturally want to appreciate the sights here." Sima You Yue said, "We'll take everyone to go and cultivate while we're at it."
"Mm, we don't want to go back either." Sima You Le said.
"Since this is the case, I will stay with you all." Jade said.
"You want to stay with us?" Why?" Sima You Qing asked with confusion.
Not only her, but all the Sima Clansmen did not expect it.
"If it wasn't for my blunder, I could have notified you all earlier, then you all wouldn't have come here." Jade explained, "Furthermore, the last rooms were booked by Brother Li. I understand that person. Maybe he will let you be protected with the great array when the times comes as long as I stay with you."
"Miss Jade, you actually don't have to…" Sima You Yue said.
"I have already decided that I will go with you." Jade said confidently.
"Then… okay." Sima You Yue agreed. She wanted to understand the situation here before she headed to Saint City.
"Miss." A male walked over and said, "Brother Li said to invite you back."
Jade glanced at that person and said, "Go back and tell Brother Li that I will pitch camp outside with my friends."
After she finished speaking, she ignored that person and followed Sima You Yue and the others out of the little city.
Li Mu had already reached the riverside when he received the information. He rushed over but was forced to return by her cold words.
When he saw that Jade was laughing happily while pitching camp with Sima You Yue, his heart flared with envy.
"Brother Li, the Nalan Clansmen have arrived." A disciple walked over and said beside Li Mu's ear.
"I got it." Li Mu cast another glance their way, then took his men with him as he left.
This brat, he would definitely give him a show!
