Forsaken Immortals Chapter 258
Advertisement
Mo Chu knew that the attitude of Elder Sun was rather rude and wrong. Everyone who looked at Bai Rouyun would be aware that she would not be tempted by the beautiful young men out there, but he did not confront this elder, as he also understood where his worries came from.
Although Elder Sun truly liked Bai Rouyun, he was also aware that she was beautiful, talented, and sought after. Any man would be interested in such a great woman, and his Master had left for a long time, which might make her feel lonely.
Since he was gone, some might take the time and try prying into his corner, and it would be Li Moyun who would suffer when he returned to find his wife missing.
Elder Sun was not the biological father of Li Moyun, but he had never gotten his own children, and to him, this young man was the proudest son in his heart.
He never publicly claimed to be the father, but he could not help but wish for all the best for this prince.
This was also why he sometimes became a bit silly when the love life of his young master was involved.
One has to know that Li Moyun never paid any attention towards women before. He did not care about the gender of his subordinates, but no matter what gender, none of them were allowed to come close to him.
And while his words had caused both Mo Chu and Jiang Wei to think, none of them were interested in seeing her be unfaithful in her marriage.
Although Jiang Wei was somewhat envious of Li Moyun's luck with encountering Bai Rouyun, he was not willing to become a third party in their marriage, not to mention that he only had a good impression of the woman so far, he did not fall in love with her.

At the same time, he also wanted to see how she could withstand the temptation of the rest of the world with no husband close at hand to keep her steady.
While the three men had various thoughts about Bai Rouyun's ability to remain faithful, the woman in question was busy cultivating.
She was seated cross-legged within the Primal Chaos Dimension, and was focusing on increasing her strength little by little.
Xiao Hua and Xiao Mao were also cultivating by her side. Both of them were paying great attention, as they might be playing a certain role during the combat in the competition.
After entering the Primal Chaos Dimension, they had not been outside in the real world.
Even though they loved the peace and quiet environment inside the pocket dimension, and the safety to enhance their strength gave them a strong sense of security, they still looked forward to meeting others once more.
They were even eager to begin thrashing those who were going to look for trouble. They were both itching for a real fight, as they could not bear to go all out while sparring with one another.
Bai Rouyun was also starting to miss the feeling of letting loose. While she was not addicted to fighting or killing, she did feel slightly stuffy after the long period of time where her Qi had been sealed.
She was in need of a place to vent, and looking around, she understood very well that the journey to the tournament would not be smooth.
Even if their travels were without anyone scheming against them, they could easily encounter robbers and troubles along the way, so she was not in a hurry to find a human sandbag for now.
While Bai Rouyun was relaxed and started preparing for the trip, everyone at the Blue Water Institute found out about the ones who had been picked to join the contest, and an uproar exploded at the campus.

Not many knew of Bai Rouyun's personal abilities, and many were jealous of her gaining this opportunity.
While they accepted the fact that her background was much better than theirs, they also felt unhappy as Bai Rouyun got the chance to stand on stage and face off against others.
No matter how strong her background was, it would not help her beat the people in the ring, and they felt as if they would be insulted and humiliated, as she was fighting on behalf of their academy.
The leaders of the academy were all under immense pressure, but they stood firm on their decision to use Bai Rouyun. While the students might be uncertain about this woman's true strength, they understood that she would never be a normal fish in the pond, but instead become a carp that'd jump the dragon gate.
They also understood that it was only a question of time before she left their small institute, so if they had a way to make her gain honor on their behalf before she left, then it would naturally be for the best.
It had only been half a day from the rumors of Bai Rouyun recruiting experts to join the Eternal Shadow Palace to spread throughout Canglan City, but at the same time, many also scoffed at her for intending to participate in a tournament.
They all began to scheme on how to get accepted into this famous faction, but they did not wish to sacrifice too much, so many had the attitude of waiting for her to return in failure, before they'd offer themselves to join in return for certain lucrative benefits.
Unfortunately, these experts were not aware that Bai Rouyun had given an order to all members of the Eternal Shadow Palace within Canglan City.
They were to withdraw and return to their headquarters. She had no intention to return here later, as she felt that she had already wasted enough time, and could no longer progress smoothly if she remained.

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. That rule was undeniable as well as the fact that only the heroine would receive true love and her happy ending. Likewise, the malicious villainess would always suffer and leave the stage to clear the path for the perfect heroine in the end. 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. No matter how devoted she was to Theodore Estien, the emperor of Artias, she would only be the bratty concubine that would obstruct the heroine, who happened to be Theodore's lawful wife and the empress. 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. And no matter what happened she would always stay by her lover's side. So she wouldn't just follow the book's storyline and let her own doom arrive. Blanche would survive while trying to suppress all of the selfish desires that had made her the villainess. But was she truly fine with that? Did she not desire more than just surviving? Did she even have the right? Could the villainess ask for a happy end? Was she too brazen if she just wanted to stay with the man she loved and receive his affection? And wasn't there a bit more to this novel than she remembered? She didn't know and in the end that mattered little when the world around her changed with each day as more and more questions about the future and the past arose. "The Emperor's Concubine" will be updated thrice a week (usually on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays) *The Profanity tag was added due to the characters' occasional swearing, which should not happen too often.
