Forsaken Immortals

Chapter 179 - Li Moyun's News



While Li Moyun and Bai Rouyun were busy eating their breakfast alongside Mo Chu and Qin Huiling, the news about Li Moyun's actual background began spreading through the cultivation world.

While the sects and hidden families were deeply shocked by the reveal of his actual identity, they did not allow this surprise to stun them, and they hurriedly sent their men to rush towards the Richu Empire for the purpose of gathering as much information about Li Moyun as possible.

The people that were sent out reached the Richu Empire after a few days, and the Imperial Capital turned even more bustling than usual.

Many experts appeared, and the Yun Palace was kept under close observation, while others traveled the streets to get information about the man in question.

Bai Rouyun and Li Moyun were famous within the Imperial Capital as they had stood out from the other nobles.

Li Moyun was known as the hero of the Richu Empire. He was a man who had saved their empire multiple times as he had left his home city behind and marched to meet its enemies.

As for the men who had come to inquire about Li Moyun's news, they soon knew his entire life experiences.

And what they were most surprised about was the fact that he was married.

Many wished to forge connections with Li Moyun, and due to his young age, there was no lack of women who had been sent to seduce him.

It was no secret that these women had never returned. No one knew if they had reached his side or if they had been killed by his subordinates before they had the time to appear.

It had been known to all that the Eternal Shadow Lord did not lust after women and that using seduction was useless.

Initially, they had thought that this was due to his cold personality, but when they heard that he was married, they had begun making up specific theories in their mind.

They began imagining that the reason for Li Moyun to be so unfeeling towards the other women was due to his heart only being moved by this wife of his. However, as the information got more detailed, they found out that this woman, whom he had married, did not become his wife by his choice.

She was a pitiful woman with no strength, and a lot of flaws, but she had been gifted to him as a reward, so he had no choice other than to marry her.

The experts who had arrived were aware of the personality of the Eternal Shadow Lord, so their jaws almost dropped when they heard of the sweet feelings of love between Bai Rouyun and Li Moyun.

When these experts heard of the tender emotions that Li Moyun felt towards this woman, they felt a shiver of fear run through their bodies.

While the woman was stunning, according to the rumors, she was not right in her mind. She was dumb and deaf. How could the illustrious Eternal Shadow Lord fall for such a woman?

The experts felt that something was amiss, but the more they searched, the less they could find.

It was clear that these people from the mortal world were unaware of Li Moyun's identity.

They genuinely thought that he was a benevolent prince who wanted nothing more than the best for the citizens of the Empire, and that he had fallen in love with the wife he was forced to marry.

The more information that these experts gathered, the more surprised and confused they became.

The image that Prince Yun had in front of the citizens was a big contrast to the image he held in the cultivation world.

These citizens all viewed him as a hero; an upright figure who fought for his homeland, a person who would never accept injustice.

What they knew of the Eternal Shadow Lord was that he was a cold and ruthless figure. He killed without caring for anything, and the term of fairness was not in his dictionary.

While he could not be considered directly evil, he was, without a doubt, not a good person either.

To think that this figure, whom they all deemed as terrifying as a demon, was hiding within such a small empire, on the outskirts of the continent, able to conceal all tracks of his identity and trick the whole cultivation world for so many years.

The experts slowly returned to the factions that had sent them out. While the information they had gathered truly confused them, they knew that it was not their task to determine what it meant.

Their task ended when they handed over the information to those who were in charge of this part.

As they returned to their factions, they handed over all the information they had gathered. The information was combined with a certain amount of proof and documents, along which were written explanations of his life’s experiences.

The Elders of each faction spent a lot of effort to understand and read through all the documents provided, and they could not help but sigh in admiration. Such a young man was truly a genius.

The thing, which made the Elders somewhat hesitant, was his relationship with Bai Rouyun. They knew that he was not capable of being seduced, so why was he suddenly so infatuated with this woman?

She was nothing special. Currently, she was enrolled at the Blue Water Institute which was not even considered a part of the Cultivation World. How could such a woman be worthy of the Eternal Shadow Lord?

The Elders had seen beautiful illustrations of her countenance, but even so, was he truly enamored by her appearance alone? He should know that the Cultivation world did not lack beauties who were much more useful than her.

As a result, the factions once again sent out the cultivators who had been to the Richu Empire, but this time they were sent to Canglan City, with the purpose of investigating Bai Rouyun.
