Forsaken Immortals Chapter 60
Advertisement
After escaping from Li Moyun's office, Bai Rouyun returned to their room, where she entered the Primal Chaos Dimension again.
Here she played a bit with Xiao Bao and Xiao Jin, observed the herb garden, and read through some formulas and recipes. She was looking for a herbal bath that could improve her cultivation, without any downsides.
The reason she picked a herbal bath instead of a pill was because they were much gentler than the pills. When one consumed a pill, the pill would instantly erupt with energy within one's body. If the cultivator was not fast enough at consuming the energy, it would dissipate, or explode the body.
By using a herbal bath, the body would consume the energy at a slower pace, and nothing would be wasted. One could sit in the bath from the beginning until there was no medicinal efficiency left.
After looking through numerous books, she finally found a suitable herbal bath that was very useful for cultivators in the Earth Realm. It was actually useful for the entire Acquired Realm, but one had to change a few herbs when one broke into the Sky Realm, and again when one broke into the Heaven Realm.
The herbs needed were all quite expensive, and they needed to be hundred-year-old herbs. Thinking like this, Bai Rouyun frowned. Although she had around five hundred thousand gold coins, it would not get her far.
She had the herbs in her Primal Chaos Dimension. However, they were not a hundred years old yet, and it would take quite some time before they were.
She was originally thinking of selling a Marrow-Cleansing Pill, but she decided against it quite quickly.
If she took out a Marrow-Cleansing Pill in this small country, many would start to wonder about its origin, and some might even realize that this location was where the Eternal Shadow Palace belonged.

If they knew that the pill had appeared in the territory of the Eternal Shadow Palace, then they would be able to guess that there was some sort of connection.
Bai Rouyun decided to see how many of her herbs she could get for five hundred thousand gold coins. Hopefully, it would be enough to make it possible for her to last a hundred days while waiting for her own herbs to mature.
After deciding, she did not hesitate to leave the Primal Chaos Dimension. She quickly changed her clothes and took on her face mask.
When she opened the door, she found that Mo Chu was still guarding outside, and she knew she could not shake him off. "I need to visit the Thousand Treasure Pavilion. Do you want to come with me?"
Mo Chu nodded his head. He waved his hand, and a face mask appeared in his palm. Seeing the ability to materialize things out of thin air, Bai Rouyun instantly knew that he had a storage ring.
Storage rings were extremely hard to get their hands on. The stone on a storage ring was a treasure that had taken thousands of years to be created by nature before human armament masters were able to refine them into a ring.
Because the stones took thousands of years to be created, and that nature alone could craft them, they were immensely rare. Even if one had money, it was not certain that they could buy one.
But Mo Chu, a guard in the Eternal Shadow Palace, actually had a storage ring! This was shocking.
Seeing the shock in Bai Rouyun's eyes as she stared at the ring on his finger, Mo Chu instantly knew that she was shocked that he had a storage ring, rather than shocked by where the face mask appeared from.

But how could a dumb kid know about storage rings? Once again, Mo Chu was convinced that Bai Rouyun was hiding some massive secret, but he knew that nothing would happen, even if he told Li Moyun; the Lord would just look at him with an expression of being proud of his woman.
Sighing, Mo Chu placed the face mask on his face, and the two of them exited the Yun Palace. They walked through the street, and as they walked past an alleyway, Bai Rouyun suddenly saw a group of children, all of which were looking at the people walking past with sadness.
These children were clearly orphans, and Bai Rouyun stopped in her tracks. She knew the feeling of being abandoned by the world, and her heart ached.
She suddenly walked towards them, and Mo Chu followed close by her, puzzled as to what could have caught her eyes.
But when he saw the group of orphans, his own eyes turned sharp. There were not many orphans in Richu Empire, as the Eternal Shadow Palace took most of them in, but now a group appeared like this.
Bai Rouyun reached the children, and all of them looked at her with vigilance and fear. She squatted down in front of them and placed her hands on her knees.
"Heya," she said gently. "Why are you guys standing here all alone?"
"Our parents abandoned us, or died in the war," one of the older children answered. Although they were alert, Bai Rouyun had an aura around her that made others want to be close to her and be friendly.
This was caused by the Primal Chaos Pagoda, and these children had no way of protecting themselves against it.
"Come with me," Bai Rouyun said, as she reached out her hand to the boy who had just spoken. "I will give you something to eat."
Although she had planned on buying herbs, her heart had ached for these children. It was like seeing herself again as a child, and she wanted to help them.
