Forsaken Immortals

Chapter 111 - The Two Treasures

Bai Rouyun was feeling much more refreshed after resting her head. She knew that if she had forced the problem, then she would have caused more harm than help, and might even have developed a heart demon.

Things were, fortunately, not that serious now. The rest had caused her mental state to be in peak condition, and she could think much more rationally than before.

While she had full faith in Xiao Bao and trusted that he was correct about the knowledge of her incomplete soul, the thought she had about not being the child of the Bai family was only a guess.

She did not have anyone who could provide her with the truth as things were now, and she understood that if she wanted the truth, then the only person who could tell her was the young General Bai.

He would know whether or not she was his daughter, but she was also aware that with the current horrible relationship between the two of them, it was impossible that he would tell her.

Then she had two options, one was to salvage the relationship between the two of them, and the other was to get so strong that she could threaten him into informing her of the truth.

The first option was not viable. Even if she wanted to have a good relationship with this man, he was not willing to see past their history, and if she was indeed not his daughter, she was a constant reminder of his concubine’s trickery.

Bai Rouyun thought about the different options and finally sighed. She was not sure what kind of person her mother was. No one had ever told her about her, and in fact, she had only met her father twice before, where he was such a person who would bend in front of power, but bully those weaker than him.

The first time she met him was when Li Moyun brought her to the Bai Estate and firmly established her position as Princess Yun.

The second time she met him was at the Thousand Treasure Pavilion, where he had brought his soldiers to back up his beloved daughter. Still, upon noticing that Li Moyun was much stronger than him, he was bending sideways and giving in to all his unreasonable orders, just to save his own hide.

Bai Rouyun understood what kind of General Bai was, and thus her next group of actions were quite easy to plan.

Once she was strong enough, she would be able to get any information she wished, as long as he had not made a heavenly oath never to tell the truth.

But that likelihood was relatively small. In this world, any man would be hesitant to say that they were raising another man’s child as their own.

After calming down, Bai Rouyun suddenly felt a strange urgency to strengthen herself as fast as possible.

Up until now, she had been satisfied with her strength. She had been happy knowing that in a few years, she would be able to start fighting against the factions that had caused her downfall in her previous life, but now she was not willing to wait a few years. She had to grow stronger!

Bai Rouyun stayed in her room the entire night. She only left when it was time to eat dinner, and after finishing her meal, she returned to the room to continue cultivating.

It was unsure if the heavens had taken pity on her or if her talent was simply heaven-defying now that she had healed her soul, but that night she managed to breakthrough.

Unsatisfied with her current performance, Bai Rouyun entered the Chaos Dimension, where she found Xiao Bao and Xiao Jin. Both of them were busy looking after her herb fields, and when she looked in the small hut, she found numerous harvested herbs, which were preserved in their most effective state.

If she were to refine pills with these herbs and an ancient formula, then the pills would be extra powerful.

When the herbs were harvested at the perfect time, they would lose less of their medicinal properties during the refinement process, resulting in more powerful medicinal properties in the pills.

Bai Rouyun looked at the herbs she had at hand and began thinking through the countless pill formulas that Xiao Bao had gifted her.

After thinking for some time, she picked up a Moon Dew Lily and a few other herbs. "Xiao Jin, Mommy needs your help," she called out, and the small girl came rushing into the hut, her eyes glistening with excitement and her face shining in good health.

Although many herbs were present in the hut, most of the herbs they had harvested had been consumed by Xiao Jin and Xiao Bao.

Although these herbs could not help them unlock more of the Primal Chaos Pagoda or allow Xiao Jin to refine higher-ranked pills, they could consolidate their current strength.

Bai Rouyun was aware that they were eating the herbs, but she was not stingy. Firstly, the herbs had been cultivated by these two treasures, but more importantly, gaining more strength meant that she gained more strength, and she truly valued them as family.

She would never try to skimp on things to give the ones she deemed important to her.

Xiao Jin saw the herbs that Bai Rouyun had picked, and she instantly knew what her plans were. Without even waiting for the order, she quickly transformed into a big pill cauldron.

Seeing this, Bai Rouyun was very pleased. She had decided to create a Heaven Absorbing Pill, a pill that focused on increasing the speed with which one could absorb the Heaven and Earth Essence.
