"He had just checked into this inn, then went back out immediately after arriving. What urgent matter did he need to handle? If Meng Shangmo had been taken into his Spirit Storage Space, then even if the silver-robed cultivator did not intend to leave the marketplace right away, what came next would truly be troublesome.
"If Meng Shangmo was still staying at the inn, that could indicate another possibility. That person had tampered with Meng Shangmo somehow—for instance, by signing a master-servant contract. Then, with a single thought, he could make Meng Shangmo die. Naturally, Meng Shangmo could only remain here obediently..."
Within such a short time, Shuang Qingqing had already considered several possible outcomes. Watching the silver-robed young man's departing figure, she swiftly sent a voice transmission to Bai Rou. Bai Rou stopped speaking and merely listened in silence.
Shuang Qingqing frowned slightly. At this moment, the best course would have been for Bai Rou and her to split up. Shuang Qingqing would follow the silver-robed young man, while Bai Rou remained in the inn to inquire about Meng Shangmo and see whether he was still here.
Although Bai Rou was only a Spirit Transformation Realm cultivator, she had crossed great realms alone. Shuang Qingqing believed that, when it came to gathering information like this without alerting anyone, Bai Rou would certainly be able to find out.
But the silver-robed young man had come out too quickly, completely beyond their expectations. The two of them were still here paying spirit stones, and Shuang Qingqing could not suddenly turn around and leave.
That would have been far too conspicuous. Even the innkeeper and attendants here would grow suspicious. And if she inspected the room first before coming back out, the silver-robed young man would already be gone without a trace.
