Forsaken Immortals Chapter 74
Advertisement
The time before the start of the Royal Hunting Feast went by quickly. Bai Rouyun sent a few maids out to figure out the details about the feast. She was interested in news such as where they were supposed to meet up, how many were attending, and the strength of those who participated.
As the morning of the Royal Hunting Feast arrived, Bai Rouyun quickly dressed in a riding suit that had been made by Royal Cloth, especially for her.
The riding suit was tight fitting, and it showed off Bai Rouyun's alluring body, her tempting curves, and her perfect figure.
Her long hair was tied up in a ponytail on top of her head, with a few strands of hair that were hanging loosely to frame her face.
She had a youthful demeanor, full of vitality, but also so attractive that anyone who laid eyes on her would be bewitched.
Looking at herself in the mirror, Bai Rouyun was satisfied with her appearance. Her body felt much more comfortable than the old one she had when she was still the Ice Phoenix Bai Rouyun. It was as if her new body suited her more than the old one.
As to why it was so, it could easily be because she had spent her entire fortune of herbs to be in constant closed-door cultivation, and her body had changed.
Although Bai Rouyun was previously known as the most beautiful person in the country, she was malnourished, and her body was not developed well.
After spending time with Li Moyun, who had fed her all the food she wanted, and now, with the help of these herbal baths, her body had started to mature at a rapid pace.
The herbal baths had not only caused her body to mature, but they had also managed to ignite her potential, raise her natural talent, solidify her foundation, and increase her cultivation rank.

Although she had used many more herbs than she had planned, she felt that it was worth it.
She was not entirely certain that she would win the Immemorial Chamomile, but she had much more faith in herself now that she had broken through into the Acquired Realm, Sky Rank, Initiate Tier.
Although her cultivation was just above average amongst the majority of youths in the capital, she was still quite a bit away from the real elite.
Someone like the Crown Prince had already entered the Acquired Realm, Heaven Rank.
Although he was a whole rank above Bai Rouyun, she did not actually fear him. She had faith in her martial art techniques and her many years of fighting experience.
Although she was young, her previous life was not lived in vain. She was in many life and death battles before, and had honed her skills through constant bloodshed.
In a way, all the blood in her body was boiling with excitement. Ever since she had been reborn, she had not been able to fight for real. She had not been able to let go of all her pent up frustrations. Now she could go and slaughter as many beasts as she wanted, get lots of beast cores, and even fight for prizes.
Bai Rouyun exited the room. As always, Mo Chu was waiting for her, and when he saw her, he politely moved behind her, ready to follow her towards the field outside the city.
The Imperial Capital was quite a distance away from the big mountains and forests where the magical beasts lived, but there was one single mountain covered in forests around one day's travel away.
This mountain was usually strictly guarded by the Royal family. There was a fence all around it, and all entrances had guards.

This was because this mountain only opened once a year and that this was the location for the Royal Hunting Feast.
During the time where there was no Royal Hunting Feast, the soldiers and royal guards would use the mountain as a training field, and also to ensure that the beasts did not grow uncontrolled.
But not many of these soldiers and guards had much knowledge about herbs, and as a result, many herbs were left alone inside. The Royal Hunting Feast was also a big chance to encounter a treasure.
Bai Rouyun was not aware of this. She thought that the location was a regular mountain range that was often visited by mercenaries. She did not have the memories of the original body, and thus she did not know that the only mountain in quite some distance was the one a day away that belonged to the Royal Family.
When she left the Yun Palace, she found that the entire Imperial Capital was bursting with life, carriages were all over the streets, driving towards the outside of the city, hurrying towards the gathering place for the Royal Hunting Feast.
Bai Rouyun was also in a carriage. She was riding Li Moyun's carriage, pulled by the fire horse, and Mo Chu was currently taking up the occupation as the carriage driver.
Everyone was surprised when they saw Prince Yun's carriage out on the streets, but they soon guessed that it was Bai Rouyun who was inside the carriage.
This did not lessen their shock. Although they had heard that Bai Rouyun could cultivate, they did not think she had enough time to practice any martial arts techniques, and even less time to learn how to fight others.
Was she not still rather dumb? Coming to the hunting feast to throw her life away!
One has to know that these beasts that they were going to fight against would fight back with relentless fierceness.
Also, some humans would rob each other of their possessions. Even if Bai Rouyun planned on just being there for the sake of it, she was likely to be targeted and killed by Prince Yun's enemies!

The Emperor's Concubine
[participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] The heroine is good and the villainess is evil. That was the absolute truth.

So, for Blanche it felt like her world came crashing around her when she remembered the truth about her life. As the villainess in the typical romance novel “To Be Empress” she was fated to be condemned and abandoned by her lover.

In the end, the villainess would be deserted and executed. It was destined to happen like this, and yet she couldn't give up. She had to change the future. Preventing the romance between the main characters would get her killed. Much like trying to steer away from the enemies' intrigues, in which she was already caught up, would. But neither the heroine nor the emperor's political rivals would change the fact that Blanche loved the man that was supposed to be the heroine's.
