Chapter 135 - "Why Is He Here?"
Bai Rouyun was incredibly proud of her man. He was a genuinely magnificent figure, and she had never thought that she would meet someone like him.
She felt fortunate that her life had taken this turn. Although she still wished to avenge herself on the figures that were hunting her before. Although she was very satisfied with her life, she still wanted to teach those people that there were consequences for their actions.
Together, Li Moyun and Bai Rouyun left the mansion and began strolling down the busy roads of Canglan City.
They had no aim, they just wished to spend time together, and thus they were slowly moving forward. They stopped at many of the stalls, and anything that Bai Rouyun paid even the slightest attention to was being purchased by Li Moyun.
It did not take him long to have his hands full of items that he had bought for her, and these items ranged from snacks to elaborate hairpins.
Bai Rouyun could not help but feel a little embarra.s.sed. Although she was not rich in her previous life, she had enough to pay for what she wanted. However, she had never been so lavish as Li Moyun was now.
He was much wealthier than she had ever expected. He did not even bat an eyelid when spending this much money; instead, he seemed rather happy to purchase things for Bai Rouyun.
Bai Rouyun was not one to shed tears, but upon seeing the gentleness of Li Moyun, and sensing how he valued her, she felt her eyes sting with unshed tears.
Although she and Brother Rabbit were friends in her past life, it could never come close to the feeling she had now when she was with Li Moyun.
The two were in a world of their own. They walked down one street after another, feeling extremely blissful, and their smiles could not be controlled.
However, as they took a turn and walked down one of the more busy streets, people began noticing the two of them.
Some of the people present felt that Li Moyun was somewhat familiar, while others recognized Bai Rouyun.
Due to the rumors which had been spread earlier, everyone knew that Bai Rouyun was married to Prince Yun of the Richu Empire, so after taking a bit of time to consider, they knew that this person, who had appeared out of nowhere, was Li Moyun.
However, everyone who was present knew that Li Moyun was supposed to be at the battlefront now.
How could he suddenly have appeared in Canglan City?
Bai Rouyun was rather sensitive, and she quickly noticed that they were being observed, and turned to the subject of people"s whispers. She began worrying whether or not she had caused Li Moyun troubles, but upon looking at him, and seeing his calm demeanor, Bai Rouyun inadvertently also felt relaxed.
It did not take long before the entire city was aware that Prince Yun had appeared in Canglan City, and that he was here for the sake of Bai Rouyun.
Some were excited about it, while others were unhappy. The Crown Prince was feeling mixed emotions. He was happy that his brother had abandoned his position, as he could now punish him according to the rules of the Empire, but he was also worried. If he had left the battlefield, would there even be an empire to punish him?
Bai Mulan was also somewhat uncertain about his emotions. He was rather sure as to why this famous figure had appeared in Canglan City, and he felt gratified about the fact that Li Moyun was willing to drop everything in his hands and rush to her side.
This showed that the young man truly cared about Bai Rouyun. As a Bai family member, this made Bai Mulan look at the young man with a much more positive feeling, but he still felt a little uncomfortable that a Bai family"s daughter was married to a young man from the prison continent.
Bai Mulan decided that he had to see this man with his own eyes. He was not too sure whether or not this young man could amaze him, but he was not feeling optimistic.
Bai Mulan left the Blue Water Inst.i.tute and set out towards the Canglan City for the sake of finding Bai Rouyun and Li Moyun.
It was not only him who looked for them; the crown prince also hurried towards the city. He was not going to let go of a chance to deride Li Moyun in front of everyone else.
Li Moyun and Bai Rouyun felt somewhat unhappy when they noticed that they could no longer continue indulging in their own couple"s world.
Everyone was commenting about them, and they felt a little helpless.
Just as they wanted to walk home, they suddenly heard a voice call to them.
"Bai Rouyun!"
Both Bai Rouyun and Li Moyun were shocked by someone calling her out with such a loud voice, and turned around.
Bai Rouyun could not help but frown when she saw that the man who called was Bai Mulan, and she clenched Li Moyun"s hand.
He felt her discomfort and looked at the advancing figure. A flash of hostility went past his eyes, but it vanished before anyone noticed it.
Bai Mulan was shocked when he saw that the young man was not just a legendary figure. He was already at the breakthrough point towards the Ascended Realm, which was outstanding for someone his age, even in the Wushi Continent.
Bai Mulan raised an eyebrow when he saw that this man was nothing like what he had expected. Not only was his strength overwhelming, but he also had the natural air of a king.
When he looked at him, his eyes suddenly widened when he noticed the five-clawed golden dragon that was resting on the man"s shoulder.
