Forsaken Immortals Chapter 228
Advertisement
Mo Chu had long had certain theories about Bai Rouyun's background, but he had never tried to pry into her secrets.
He knew that Li Moyun had a full understanding of her past, and as long as he accepted it, then he, Mo Chu, was in no position to question anything either.
Had this killing intent been unleashed when Mo Chu first met Bai Rouyun, then he might have been worried and fearful of her having ulterior motives towards either Li Moyun or the Eternal Shadow Palace. Still, now that he had gotten to know her, he also understood that she would never harm them.
Not to mention, it was clear that Li Moyun had ulterior motives towards her. Although both Bai Rouyun and Li Moyun had been married for some time, Mo Chu had noticed that their original cooperation was more of a beneficial deal than actual love between a married couple; however, as time had passed, more intimacy had appeared between them.
In many situations, it was obvious that Li Moyun was holding back to avoid scaring his little wife, but the beastly light in his eyes was hard to ignore, and as a man, Mo Chu clearly understood the real thoughts of his master. Shaking his head, he could not help but fear if Bai Rouyun would be able to withstand her husband's excitement when the day for them to truly become a married couple would arrive.
While Mo Chu was busy considering the couple's married life, the rest of the experts within the hall were looking at Bai Rouyun with some admiration.
They also knew clearly that she had no ulterior motives towards them or their master, so they felt amazed by the power she displayed.
Initially, when news of the engagement between Miss Bai and Prince Yun had spread, many of these experts had offered to kill the useless Miss Bai, but everyone had been refused by their master.

Now that they looked at the power this woman wielded, and the aura that was bursting from her body, they all had an urge to pledge their loyalty to her once more. She was truly worthy of being the Madam of their Eternal Shadow Palace.
Many of them felt their blood boil in excitement. Even if her premonition turned out to be fake, they did not at all feel annoyed with her summoning them all. Instead, they were grateful for her to finally show her sharp edges, and make them understand why their master was so smitten with her.
Bai Rouyun was somewhat surprised when she noticed the admiration that these experts held in their eyes as they stared at her, but she felt relieved.
She, too, understood her position well. Although she had now awoken and become herself, and while she had complete faith in her own ability to climb towards the position next to Li Moyun, she still wished for those whom he valued to approve of her.
She knew that she was able and worthy to be with Li Moyun, but others did not. She was not bothered by the thoughts that others held of her, but she hated whenever she heard others say that Li Moyun was blinded by beauty, and only cared about her due to her appearance.
She did not wish for others to think that he was so superficial, and at the same time, she wanted to prove to others that she was the most suitable to stay by his side.
Everyone was deeply influenced by the sudden killing intent, and many thoughts spread through the minds of those present. After a short while, Bai Rouyun awoke from her stupor, and she cleared her throat.
"We will move out now."
Although her words were soft and gentle, there was an undisguised majesty within that made them all nod their heads, and most of these experts vanished as if they had never been there in the first place.

They were the ones who would hide around her, to appear when the situation needed them to act.
Bai Rouyun waited for a short while before she left the mansion alongside Dongfang Yu and Mo Chu. Everything seemed to be similar to any other day, and they would laugh and talk on the way to the Institute.
On the way, they ran into Qin Huiling, who also joined them with excitement.
She and Mo Chu had become much more ambiguous. Although they had not mentioned anything about their relationship, the way they acted was as if they were about to confess to one another.
There was no physical contact, but the happiness within their eyes was impossible to hide, not to mention the care and consideration they showed each other while speaking together.
While the group was joking and laughing, a group of thugs was stalking them at a distance.
These thugs were all cultivators, but their skills had never gone to a level where they could amount to anything. Even so, they would have enough ability to take Qin Huiling away due to their sheer amount of numbers.
Bai Rouyun and Mo Chu had both noticed the group of thugs that were tracking them, but they merely shared a glance before continuing their talk.
Neither of them could have guessed that the twins were the one behind these plans; they were certain that the sole aim was her, and the experts of the Eternal Shadow Palace.
As they arrived at the gates of the Institute, the group split up and hurried to their own classrooms for the sake of listening to the lectures that had been prepared for them.
Although the knowledge taught in this Institute were things that Bai Rouyun already knew, she still followed the lectures with much interest, as she tried to compare the systematic teachings with her own experiences from the past.
