Forsaken Immortals

Bai Rouyun could not help but become speechless upon hearing Li Moyun's words. She also knew about dual cultivation from before, but she had never expected the benefits to be this bountiful, and thus she had been surprised.

However, as Li Moyun had mentioned, it was not likely that they would experience such an overwhelming improvement in cultivation again later as it was mainly due to their difference in strength and their bodies first time to experience this kind of cultivation.

Even so, it had been an additional benefit, so Bai Rouyun was happy and selectively forgot Li Moyun's words of how they would benefit more by cultivating in this manner than if they meditated throughout the night.

"Let us get some breakfast before heading towards the Lingcao Pavilion." Bai Rouyun had ignored the conversation between herself and Li Moyun, and instead, she hurriedly moved forward with the plans they had made before.

"Babies, you have to wait in the Primal Chaos Dimension for a bit longer. When we get out of the Forgotten City, then you can come out and move with us again." Although the children were placed in the Primal Chaos Dimension, they could still hear what Bai Rouyun said when she wanted to, and all of them quickly assured her that it was fine to wait.

To them, it was naturally more fun to roam around outside, but they also all understood that their identities were different from that of other children and that their appearance might cause trouble later on. Even if they had a powerful father that could protect them, there was no harm in staying low-key. The Primal Chaos Dimension was, after all, a great place to cultivate.

To be honest, all the children that Bai Rouyun had adopted were fully aware of their identities. Two were her contracted tool spirits, and another two were contracted beasts and flowers. Neither of these four had ever expected to be considered real children, but whenever they were close to Bai Rouyun and felt her sincerity and happiness connected to their family of misfits, they all indulged in the feeling and accepted their strange identities.

Even Jiaojiao, who was the most childlike of them all, understood that the majority of their behavior was actually based on wanting to pamper and satisfy Bai Rouyun.

Their movements were not rushed, but everything was done in a swift and orderly manner. By the time Bai Rouyun and Li Moyun had finished their breakfast and completed the checkout from the inn, only a short while had passed by.

The pair clasped their hands together as they moved through the streets, observing all the stalls on either side of the road and looking for the necessities they might need on their future travels as they moved towards the Lingcao Pavilion.

Their movements were not kept hidden, and Sun Junmeng had informed his subordinates to keep an eye on their movements, so he quickly knew that they were aiming for his shop. He could not help but feel somewhat restless as he raised his eyes and looked at the handsome and powerful man that was pacing back and forth on the floor in his office, clearly uncertain as to what actions he should take.

"Do you think I should stay here? I can always pretend to be a friend of yours. That way, I can get to see her in an upright manner."

The handsome man did not look much older than Li Moyun, and the current predicament had also caused his usually mature facial expressions to regain a certain youthful and innocent presentation. His furrowed brows made it clear that this current situation was very difficult for him to navigate through.

"I could also hide in the shadows. That way I can have a good look at her without letting her see me, but I don't feel like I deserve to sneak around like that. It is all my fault that she has suffered for so many years, I should definitely meet her in an upright manner."

Sun Junmeng had tried to answer him a few times, but he quickly found that no matter what he said, his master did not seem to even register his voice, let alone listen to his words.

As such, he just leaned back and looked at the flustered young man that was known as a cold-blooded and ruthless celestial in the Godly Domain.

"Master, they should arrive here shortly. I would suggest that you are brave and meet her with dignity. Your relationship is not unjust, and both you and Mistress were together in an upright manner. Even though some accidents happened later, you never did anything wrong with Mistress, and the only reason for the misfortune was that you were unable to find her in time.

"I think that you should meet our Young Miss and introduce yourself. You do not have to publicly celebrate and partake in a grand acknowledgment ceremony yet, as she is still too weak and might be targeted by your enemies, but there should not be any danger in privately accepting one another."

Sun Junmeng had witnessed his master almost wear down the floor in front of him, and although he knew that he might be unable to make his master listen, he still wanted to try and explain his views. Sometimes the bystanders were more clear than those involved.

Yan Wenxiu came to a stop as he slowly began to think about the words spoken by his subordinate. He knew that there was some reason in what he said, but he was still afraid.

From the time he was born and until the moment he met Yun Jingfeng, he had never understood how another person could influence him so much that he was willing to give his life for her sake. After losing her, he felt as if the heart that she had awoken slowly died down and froze into a capsule of despair. No emotion was allowed to escape.

After knowing that she had a daughter that was still alive, he felt as if the ice was slowly cracking, and he could not hold back the returning heartbeat. He was eager to get closer, but still afraid that he would lose this precious person once more.
