Forsaken Immortals Chapter 55

"You are the boss," Wen Sihan said with a shrug of his shoulders. To him, it did not matter how they dealt with the pills, as long as he could refine them.
Li Moyun thought a little, and then he nodded his head. "We can auction a few of them through the Thousand Treasure Pavilion. I don't mind making Xue Jingyu from Shitian Tower owe me a favor."
Wen Sihan nodded his head. The fewer there were of these pills, the more expensive they would become. Releasing one at a time on the market would be a good move. Especially if one could stay anonymous, then it would be quite beneficial.
"You said that you had access to more formulas such as this one?" Wen Sihan did not care about what Li Moyun did with the pills, what mattered to him were the recipes he could get, and he was eager to see when he could get more of them.
"I can, but not right now. The alchemist who is giving them to me is currently busy cultivating, and when she finishes, she will go through her formulas and give me the ones she thinks I can use."
"It is a woman?" Wen Sihan asked curiously, and while Li Moyun was not willing to say too much about her, he still nodded his head.
"This woman has got to love you!" Wen Sihan said, shocked. "Otherwise, it will be impossible to give you such treasured things! But you are already married. Do you plan on killing your wife and taking her in, in return for the formulas, or are you just going to accept her as a concubine?"
Li Moyun's face turned ugly when he heard what Wen Sihan said. His eyes glistened with anger. How dare he say that Bai Rouyun should die! How could he even suggest him taking in a concubine!?

"Neither," Li Moyun said slowly, as the temperature was slowly lowering in the room. "Listen closely to this, Li Moyun has one wife throughout his whole life, and that wife is Bai Rouyun. I will not accept any concubines either, my entire life will be together with one woman only, and that woman is Bai Rouyun."
Wen Sihan was shocked. "But isn't she a fool?" he asked hesitatingly. He was aware of the rumors that she was currently being healed, but she had been a fool for so long, that even if she got healed, she was likely to be quite ditzy. How had such a woman stolen Li Moyun's heart?
"You don't need to understand her goodness," Li Moyun said with a smile on his face as he thought about the petite woman who would always smile at him.
Wen Sihan shook his head. Although he did not understand, he was happy to see the foolish smile on his friend's face. So far, Li Moyun had been cold and almost inhuman. Although he had treated his friends well, everyone knew the ruthlessness hidden beneath the surface.
Seeing him making such a human expression, Wen Sihan was suddenly curious about this Bai Rouyun, and her ability to make him so smitten.
Suddenly, a thought struck him. Could these formulas come from Bai Rouyun? But upon considering the chances, he shook his head and thought it impossible. How could an idiot know about those precious things?
Li Moyun could see what he was thinking, but he said nothing to change his opinion. He did not mind if the entire world believed that Bai Rouyun was an idiot, and that only he knew of her pleasant personality. That way, he did not have to deal with other men coveting his wife.

"Well, that was it for now. We have a new batch of recruits I picked up from the streets of the Xiyang Empire. They are loyal and talented. There are one hundred and seventy-nine, and I need a Marrow-Cleansing Pill for each of them. Hurry back home and get familiar with the recipe, since you have to concoct a whole mountain of these pills."
Wen Sihan nodded his head. Refining two hundred Marrow-Cleansing pills would be impossible for Bai Rouyun with her current prowess in the field of Alchemy, but Wen Sihan was an illustrious tier seven alchemist, and thus it posed little challenge for him.
But although it was a simple pill of the first tier, it was a rare precious ancient formula. He was eager to try it out.
After Wen Sihan excused himself, Li Moyun leaned back in the chair and thought of the words that the alchemist had said. That the owner of those formulas likely loved him, otherwise they would never give away such valuable things.
Although Li Moyun knew that Bai Rouyun did not dislike him, he was also aware that their emotions were not yet to the point of love, but hearing Wen Sihan saying that she loved him felt right.
He was quite hopeful at the moment, and could not help but hope that soon, he would have Bai Rouyun's heart so that he did not always have to worry about her leaving him.
Although Li Moyun was aware that Bai Rouyun was not going anywhere, at least for now, he was not sure that she would not fly into the vast horizon and never return at some point in time.
The thought of her vanishing was enough to cause his heart to clench in pain, and he could not help but feel uncomfortable. She had already become his partner, and he did not want anyone else.
She was the woman he had set his focus on. Not because of her previous glory, but because of her personality. She was so comfortable to be close to, and she was able to make him feel at peace.

Beatrice Santello
An adult imagining of Beatrice Santello's life prior to the events of Night in the Woods. There are no explicit depictions of sex here, though there are obviously adult themes and situations involving it. I wasn't going to post it to Royalroad as I didn't think Fanfiction was okay here - but now I see it is and I am quite convinced it is the best work I've ever done yet, I've got to see what any fans of NitW think about it! The first chapter was originally written as a short vignette and wasn't intended to be continued into a full blown story. It was just intended to be moody and evocative. Even though anyone that has played Night in the Woods has a good idea how this must end, I hope it will still be worth the read. Also, since I've finished writing it, I'm going to post it as one big chapter dump all at once. Cover drawing by GreasyMojo and colored by me (with permission!). I don't think it should be too risque on it's own but I suppose I'll soon find out.
