Chapter 655: That Child, Should We Lock Her in the Little Black Room First?
Although Bai Ruoxi and Mu Ruoruo were related by blood, she wasn’t her biological mother… Only the Heavenly Dao could achieve such a feat.
After all, the Heavenly Dao could analyze and mimic the personality traits of any fish in the fishpond and combine them.
If she wished, she could also transform into anyone.
Undoubtedly, this was how Mu Ruoruo was born.
After understanding everything, Bai Ruoxi’s feelings were inexplicably complex. She didn’t know whether to be happy or angry.
Happy because Mu Ruoruo was indeed her child… Angry because the child wasn’t born from her, yet was related to her by blood.
This child was probably created by the Heavenly Dao after transforming into Bai Ruoxi’s form.
“I didn’t expect Yuanluo to be able to do this. It’s truly surprising.”
After a long silence, Shang Yanfei spoke softly, breaking the silence. Even she was somewhat stunned by the Heavenly Dao’s actions.
Not only transforming into someone else’s appearance, but also using some method to ‘give birth’ to a daughter.
What exactly is the Heavenly Dao planning…
…
In the north, Mu Zhian carried this big loli on his back and walked into a quiet little courtyard. Unknown flowers and plants bloomed on both sides, towering ancient trees rising from the ground, their leaves emerald green, faintly emitting a sparkling rosy light, quite extraordinary.
Within the small courtyard was a pavilion. The pavilion faced a small pond, and a breathtakingly beautiful woman in a magnificent dress sat above the water, her eyes closed in meditation.
“Why are you always studying these flowers and plants… Wouldn’t it be faster to just go to him and absorb the Innate Celestial Furnace’s Spiritual Energy for your cultivation?”
Beside the pond sat a woman with a voluptuous and graceful figure. She wore a hazy veil, a simple elegant dress enveloping her delicate body. Beneath the veil, a noble and gentle oval face was faintly visible, a magnificent jade hairpin in her intricate hairstyle.
The beautiful married woman’s gentle eyes looked at her best friend with some helplessness.
Luo Tan opened her eyes and glanced at her best friend with a slight smile, “The Spiritual Energy in the Heavenly Court is incredibly dense. The flowers and plants I couldn’t cultivate in the Nine Provinces can now grow naturally here. It’s actually thanks to the Heavenly Court’s Spiritual Energy.”
The Princess: “But what’s the use of you cultivating these heavenly materials and earthly treasures?”
Luo Tan pondered for a moment, then said with a bright smile, “I like it.”
The Princess: “…”
Before ascending to the Heavenly Court, she had thought that by joining forces with her best friend, they could at least make that guy fall head over heels for them.
But who would have thought that after ascending to the Heavenly Court, this woman would start to cultivate her mind and body, becoming obsessed with flowers and plants, completely not participating in the… activities.
“If you miss him so much, just go find him. Why do you have to wait for me?”
Luo Tan stood up and walked gracefully, casually trimming the excess branches and leaves with a pair of scissors, “Actually, I don’t necessarily have to go find him. Maybe he’ll come on his own sometime?”
“Besides, it’s only been half a month since I was last intimate with him.”
“Or perhaps, has Your Highness become a woman with insatiable desires after the Great Peng Emperor’s death, needing that little man to comfort you day and night?”
As Luo Tan spoke, she looked up with a slight smile, a playful glint in her beautiful eyes.
“Why bring up the Great Peng Emperor for no reason… I have nothing to do with him,” the Princess couldn’t help but roll her eyes at her best friend and continued, “But are you really not worried about him being captivated by other women… and eventually forgetting you?”
“If he has another child… it would be even more troublesome.”
A smile appeared in Luo Tan’s magnificent eyes, and she pursed her lips, “You’re overthinking it. He said before that he doesn’t want children for now… You’ve said so much, you must be craving the cauldron’s Spiritual Energy, right?”
To put it more bluntly, you’re craving his body.
“Speaking of which, the Great Peng Emperor was the ruler of Cloud Province. His attacking him before… is equivalent to Cloud Province being his enemy. As the Princess of Cloud Province, it’s not a problem for you to apologize to him on behalf of Cloud Province, and to comfort and satisfy him.”
The Princess couldn’t help but glare at Luo Tan resentfully, “Then what about you? Is it okay for you to just leave your Immortal Dynasty and come to the Heavenly Court to be lazy?”
Luo Tan smiled, “I don’t have to handle most of the government affairs normally. Besides, after ascending to the Heavenly Court, it’s not like I can’t descend to the Nine Provinces… I go back every once in a while.”
She paused slightly, looked at the dignified and gentle Princess, and continued, “Actually, you don’t have to worry… He can’t possibly forget you. Maybe he’ll come looking for you tonight.”
Her tone was filled with confidence, as if she knew Mu Zhian’s personality inside and out.
The charming and gentle beauty glanced at Luo Tan and said faintly, “If you continue to cultivate your mind and body like this, I’m afraid you’ll lose interest in even dual cultivation in the future.”
Luo Tan looked around at the quiet little courtyard and said leisurely, “Who told you I’m not interested?”
“It’s just that being apart for a while will add a bit of longing.”
Luo Tan said with a faint smile, “Although you’re a married woman, your understanding of the relationship between men and women is not as good as mine.”
The Princess’s delicate brows furrowed slightly, a little unconvinced.
However, just as she was about to speak, as if sensing something, she subconsciously looked up at the end of the quiet path.
There, a familiar figure was gradually coming into view.
Luo Tan gave her best friend a look, as if saying: See? What did I tell you?
It seemed she understood Mu Zhian a little better than herself… Although the Princess’s face remained gentle and beautiful, she couldn’t help but sigh softly in her heart.
Although she was the Great Peng Emperor’s fiancée, she had first learned about the relationship between men and women from Mu Zhian.
And Luo Tan, when she ruled the Immortal Dynasty in the past, had arranged many royal marriages and was clearly much more knowledgeable about the relationship between men and women than she was.
“Eh? Is he carrying a girl…?”
Just then, the Princess faintly saw something and subconsciously murmured to herself.
Luo Tan narrowed her eyes and looked up.
A young man in a white robe was walking towards them, carrying a cute and charming girl.
The girl had straight, shoulder-length hair, a simple and beautiful long dress, a dignified oval face, and a pair of innocent and romantic peach blossom eyes, her attire filled with the youthful vitality of a young girl.
She sat on Mu Zhian’s shoulders, her hands hugging his head, her fair and slender legs swaying gently beneath her skirt.
How rare… This guy is actually bringing a girl to see me.
Sensing the Princess’s silent glance, and the meaning of ‘so this is what you call everything under control?’ in her eyes, Luo Tan said with a faint smile, “I haven’t seen this girl before. Perhaps he’s changed his taste recently… or maybe he’s just out with a young girl from the Ye Clan or the Mu Clan.”
When helping Ye Qingxin’s entire clan ascend, Mu Zhian had also brought the past Mu Clan with him, but these families didn’t live in the Heavenly Palace.
However, some of the young girls in the clan, their hearts stirring with affection, would often invite Mu Zhian out to play.
Most of the time, he would refuse… This time, for him to agree, and even bring the young girl here, was quite rare.
But this girl was indeed very delicate and beautiful. Among the countless young girls Luo Tan had seen, she could be said to be one of the top.
It was just that she seemed a bit young…
Could this guy have awakened some strange hobby?
Although she thought this, Luo Tan still looked up at Mu Zhian with an elegant smile, about to greet him.
Just then, Mu Ruoruo secretly glanced at Luo Tan, then at the beautiful married woman in the simple elegant dress, and said with joy, “Dad, are we there?”
The smile on Luo Tan’s face gradually froze.
The Princess beside her stared at Mu Zhian in shock, her gaze slightly dazed.
