Forsaken Immortals Chapter 34

Hearing Li Moyun's words, some of the anger within Bai Rouyun vanished, but her mood was still rather foul.
She had been missing Brother Rabbit, but she had forgotten how good he was at aggravating her.
Seeing her pouting look as she was leaning her head against Li Moyun's chest, a grin flashed past Xue Jingyu's eyes.
"So this marriage is real then?" he returned to the real subject at hand, curious as to whether or not Li Moyun had truly become his brother-in-law.
"Well, yes and no," Bai Rouyun mumbled, but Xue Jingyu could hear it.
"The real Bai Rouyun was a dumb, deaf, and mute woman who was sold off by her family to marry Li Moyun. Unfortunately, her family was filled with jealousy towards her and killed her with poison on the wedding day.
"When she died, I somehow took over her body, not sure how it worked or what happened.
"So when I became this Bai Rouyun, I was already married to Li Moyun, but the wedding is not such a bad thing."
Bai Rouyun did not say that they had not consummated their wedding; there was no need to say this. It would harm Li Moyun's pride, and Xue Jingyu knew her well enough to know that she would not give her body to someone unless that someone would be her partner for life.
They continued talking casually, and Xue Jingyu was no longer intentionally angering Bai Rouyun. Instead, he just asked a few questions about her and ensured that she was happy with how life was treating her now.
After talking for some time, the conversation finished, but Bai Rouyun did not hurry to leave the study.
"So you had no intention of telling Jingyu that I am here?" she asked, as her arms crossed over her chest.

"You call him Jingyu but me Li Moyun. This is such unfair treatment, I am your husband, after all."
"I know it is only because you are my husband that I am trying to reason with you and not fight it out!"
"I am much stronger than you. If you chose to fight it out, you'd be suppressed," Li Moyun snorted, but Bai Rouyun was not at all embarrassed by having been seen through.
"You couldn't bear to suppress me," Bai Rouyun pouted. "Anyway, don't change the subject, did you not plan on telling Jingyu about me?"
Li Moyun glanced at the slightly pouting and partly displeased expression on Bai Rouyun's face. He had an urge to pinch her cheeks, but he held back.
"I was not sure what your plans were," he said in an excuse. "When not knowing what your plans were, how could I possibly contact him on your behalf?"
"Really?" Bai Rouyun glared at Li Moyun, trying her best to see whether or not he was trying to calm her, or if his words were real. It was impossible to see what he was thinking.
"Truer than pearls," Li Moyun said solemnly, but his eyes were sparkling with laughter.
Sighing Bai Rouyun did not continue any longer; she just snorted at him and turned around. "I am entering the Primal Chaos Pagoda for a few days," she said.
"I managed to get my hands on quite a few herbs this time, and I need to plant the seeds I got as well.
"I am going to start practicing medicine concocting and pill refinement. It is best to do so in the dimension."
Li Moyun nodded his head, what she said made perfect sense. He suddenly recalled something and frowned.

"My father, the Emperor, has heard that you are beginning to be healed. He asked us to visit him at the Palace in five days. You can go cultivate and practice your medicine concocting, but you need to be ready to go to the Palace after five days have passed."
Bai Rouyun nodded her head and hurried back to the bedchambers, where she sat on the bed and then vanished into thin air.
Inside the Primal Chaos Dimension, she saw that Xiao Bao was already planting the seeds, one after the other. He was in a brilliant mood, his face shining happily.
"Mother, mother!" he called out when he saw Bai Rouyun. "I managed to increase my strength because of the thousand-year-old Blood Ginseng Slice.
"I grow stronger, depending on the number of herbs I get. When I have been given enough high ranked resources, and you will have reached a high enough rank, we can eventually unlock all nine layers in the pagoda."
Bai Rouyun nodded her head. "I am in need of a cauldron to refine in," she said casually and went to the small hut that was next to the lake.
Inside the hut was an old golden cauldron. This cauldron was one she had seen before, but because she was in a rush to cultivate, she had not observed it in detail yet.
When she came close to it, she would always feel a cruel oppression. It was clear that the cauldron, as the Primal Chaos Pagoda, was an extremely rare and magnificent treasure.
Now that she was about to begin venture down the road of an alchemist, she had no other choice than to look at the cauldron.
Taking a deep breath, a very rare solemn look appeared on her face. She slowly stepped forward and took the cauldron from a shelf and placed it down on the table in the middle of the hut.
The moment she touched the cauldron, she felt a strange cooling sensation in her body, spreading from her fingers where they had touched it.
She was confused and slightly puzzled, but she kept observing the cauldron. It was immensely beautiful with detailed carvings.
