Forsaken Immortals Chapter 22
Advertisement
The days went by while the capital was brewing with unrest. Many were curious as to how the Bai family would make up for their misdeeds, while others were worried about what consequences this would have for the empire and capital.
Some had the mind of watching a performance, and they were enjoying it all, while others were worried. They knew that Prince Yun was one of the most influential men in the capital, but could he go against the Bai family?
At the same time, within the Yun Mansion, Bai Rouyun was looking at Li Moyun and smiled sweetly, it was clear that she wanted something from him.
Looking at her sweet smile and cunning eyes, Li Moyun felt like pampering her forever, so with a defeated smile on his lips, he asked her, "What is it?"
"You are quite influential, right?" Bai Rouyun asked. Although she knew that the Eternal Shadow Place was quite magnificent now, she did not know exactly how powerful it was, and she had never asked him. It was his faction, so it had nothing to do with her.
Hearing her ask that question, Li Moyun was slightly puzzled. Did she want to use his power to seek revenge? Still, he answered her honestly.
"In this world, only a few people will dare to move against me."
He was not speaking with pride in his voice; he was stating it as a matter of fact. He was not someone who could easily be defeated by the other cultivators in the world.
"Then, do you have access to a face mask?" Bai Rouyun continued asking with a grin on her face.
Li Moyun was taken by surprise. Face masks were hard to get one's hands on. They were created by alchemists of at least the seventh grade.

Alchemists were ranked according to their skills. The most common alchemists were grade one, then second, and so on, until one reached the tenth grade.
There were only five tenth grade alchemists in the entire world, and while the first-grade alchemists were as numerous as the stars in the sky, the higher the rank one got, the fewer there were.
Luo Zhirou had the Primal Chaos Pagoda. She did not doubt that she would be a skillful alchemist, albeit that it would take her quite some time to master the basics.
The first tier of the Primal Chaos Pagoda was a world where herbs would grow aplenty, but to do so, she needed to get her hands on some seeds or herbs with roots.
Although she might be able to get something from the Yun Palace, she did not want to become too dependent on Li Moyun. She still felt that she would leave one day, and if she owed him too much, then she would feel guilty.
Right now, she had her dowry and all the gifts she had been given at the wedding. Li Moyun had not touched these items, he even said that they belonged to her, so she had no qualms about using them as she pleased.
Li Moyun was surprised that she wanted a face mask, but he did not mind too much. When one used a mask, their face would change, but the look could only switch to one kind of appearance.
No matter how many face masks one used, their face would always look the same.
However, that was much better than going out looking like Bai Rouyun. She could not deal with her plans if she had to act dumb, mute, and deaf.
Looking at her expectant expression, the bright doe-like eyes and the smile on her lips, Li Moyun smiled wryly.

"I have them," he said. A face mask was nothing to him, "but what is your plan with it?"
Bai Rouyun was aware that she could not tell him she wanted to buy herbal seeds. If he knew that, he would wonder what she was going to use it for, and then she would have to explain the Primal Chaos Pagoda to him.
This Primal Chaos Pagoda was a treasure that had caused almost the entire world to chase her before; she dared not tell anyone about its existence while she was still weak.
"I want to experience the bustling life of the capital rather than just cultivate every day," Bai Rouyun said gently. She did not look in Li Moyun's eyes, and he knew that she was giving him a perfunctory answer.
But for some reason, he was not in the mood of prying too deeply. If Bai Rouyun had secrets that she couldn't tell him yet; then he was not in a position to try and unravel them.
He was confident that one day she would tell him everything herself.
Smiling indulgently, he summoned a guard and made him bring two face masks.
"Mo Chu, you will follow your madam. Use the face mask and protect her. Don't let her be endangered and follow all her orders unconditionally."
The shadow guard, who was named Mo Chu, bowed to Li Moyun and handed one of the face masks over to Bai Rouyun.
When she placed it on her face, she found that her face was still beautiful, albeit no longer recognizable. Nodding her head in approval, she went to the bedchambers and took out a purple dress, in which she then quickly changed into. She also took all the gold coins she had been gifted and stored them in the space of the Primal Chaos Pagoda.
Bai Rouyun was unaware of the current prices within this world, so she was unsure of whether or not she was rich or poor. In her past life, she had been a cultivator, and the currency they used was essence stones instead of gold coins, so she was completely unsure of her own wealth.
