Forsaken Immortals

So, even though Li Moyun had already spent enough time describing the pros and cons of the decision they were about to take, he also quickly figured out that since Bai Rouyun wanted to go across the more challenging path, he would happily follow her.

He had spent a long time alone within the special realm, and it was not before now that he could be by his wife's side again. His strength had grown tremendously, and he had enough faith in himself to be able to protect his wife and picked-up children.

"Well, then, let our journey begin." Li Moyun smiled gently as his eyes shone with love and pampering whenever he looked at Bai Rouyun. He gently grasped her small and tender palm in his hand and the two happily followed behind the children that had rushed into the tall and lush grass in front of them. 𝘧𝑟𝑒𝑒𝘸𝑒𝘣𝑛𝑜𝓋𝑒𝑙.𝒸𝑜𝘮

The grass was taller than expected when entering the dense fields, but their strength could not be compared to that of the ordinary person, and all of them had no issues moving forward little by little.

Although the road they had been traversing before was getting less and less crowded, a person or two would appear from time to time, and these sparse travelers could not help but look curiously at their group, as they moved further and further away from the road on which most were walking.

However, this decision was not too out of the ordinary. In the world of cultivators, only those who had the will to risk their lives could gain the most impressive fortunes, as danger and luck went hand in hand.

"It must be a lie. Why did the distance seem so short when we were standing on the road, but now that we are walking in the direction of the hill we saw earlier, it takes forever to reach it?" Jiaojiao was getting much more familiar with the group, and she could not help but to complain as she looked at the hill where the beasts they had seen previously had been resting.

Looking back, the road seemed to have disappeared long ago in the blanket of green waves fluttering in the wind, and many of the animals that had previously been playing around had also sought other pastures without the presence of human guests.

Even so, the butterflies were still dancing in the wind; the songs of the birds were being brought forth by the gentle breeze, and the smaller animals were all hiding in their burrows, trying to avoid being detected.

Although the larger animals had left, the smaller ones were still present, and the entire grassland was still teeming with life.

"Mom!" A loud call echoed through the air as Bai Rouyun and Li Moyun were calmly advancing forward. Up until now, all talk had been about how far away everything was, but suddenly, the voice of Xiao Jin had cut through the silence and made them all focus their gazes on her.

"What is it, dearest?" Bai Rouyun smiled happily as she quickened her pace and reached the spirit's side in a short while. Xiao Jin was standing by the side of a rabbit's nest and a group of cute and white fluffballs were gathering around her.

"Mom, look, aren't they adorable?" Xiao Jin lifted her head; her eyes were shining and filled with excitement. The cute little rabbit cubs were all trying to get closer to her, and their eyes also twinkled with greed, making Bai Rouyun wonder if they had ulterior motives to approach her little girl.

One has to keep in mind that although Xiao Jin looked like an innocent little child, she was, in fact, an overwhelmingly powerful artifact, and if these little critters managed to absorb some of her power, they would become much more intelligent and powerful than they were now. It was their natural instinct to get close to her and try to absorb her energy.

"Where is the mother rabbit?" Bai Rouyun squatted down in front of the baby rabbits and took one of them into her hand. Its fluffy fur was soft and comfortable to the touch, and she couldn't help but nudge her cheek against it. "So soft!" Her words carried extreme happiness.

"The mother is still hiding in the cave beneath. Do you think that the mother and her babies want to come along with us? You can put them in the Primal Chaos Dimension, and then we can take them out and cuddle whenever we need a warm hug?"

Xiao Jin was a special kind of artifact spirit, and she could sense anything of unusual value. Although she was not able to put her feelings into words, she still managed to show her liking towards these baby rabbits, and Bai Rouyun could not help but wonder if the option was viable.

Fortunately, Xiao Bao was not far away, and he was the one most suitable for telling her whether or not this idea was possible, so she quickly turned her head to look at her oldest son.

"It can be done." Xiao Bao was also looking at the small fluffballs as he nodded his head. Much like Xiao Jin, he also felt very kind when he looked at these small things, but unlike the little cauldron, he understood that this was likely due to the origin of the rabbits being special. As such, he was very eager to bring them away.

"If we want to bring them, then we need permission from their mother, and their mother needs to come with us too. However, we do not understand their language." Bai Rouyun was also quite keen on bringing these cuties along, but she was not willing to steal the babies without permission, so she looked around and finally focused on Xiao Mao.

"My cute son Mao! Come here, we need a translator."
