Forsaken Immortals

Chapter 308: Full of Life

Bai Rouyun smiled gently as she looked at Xiao Jin who had stopped right in front of her.

Although she knew that she had just absorbed two soul fragments, she did not feel any obvious difference in her mind nor in her personality. The only actual change was that she felt refreshed and comfortable.

"Do I smell different?" According to the words Xiao Jin had just said, the merge had caused a difference in her scent, which made Bai Rouyun feel intrigued. That would be quite a strange side-effect of repairing her soul.

"I am not sure." Xiao Jin frowned as she leaned forward. The little spirit was so focused on identifying what caused her to feel refreshed, that she did not notice her body losing balance and tumbling forward.

Bai Rouyun acted swiftly and caught the tiny body before it crashed to the ground, and she held the child in her arms.

"Xiao Jin, you have to be careful. You could hurt yourself if you fall."

Although her voice was slightly reproachful, it also contained some worry, and Xiao Jin knew that she was not actually being scolded, but that her mother was genuinely worried about her. Such worry made her heart feel warm.

"It is not your scent, but somehow my mind feels refreshed by being next to you. At the same time, it reminds me of spring and flowers, so I thought it was your scent that had changed."

Bai Rouyun smiled happily as she heard her daughter praise her. No one disliked being praised, and she was the same, so being told that she had an aura that refreshed others was a great compliment.

While Xiao Jin was resting in Bai Rouyun's arms, Xiao Bao had disappeared off to another area. He had promised to ensure that the second floor of the pagoda would be opened today, so he had to ensure that the locks and formations were ready for Bai Rouyun to enter through.

Although her cultivation base was the main key to open the higher tiers of the pagoda, many individual formations and safety measures were placed on each floor, so that Xiao Bao could make the final decision as to who was allowed to enter the higher floors. If he did not approve of a master, then they would only touch the surface layer of the Primal Chaos Pagoda's might, no matter how high their rank got.

"Mother." Another hand grasped her sleeve, and as she looked down she saw that Jiaojiao was standing by her side looking at her and Xiao Jin with sparkling eyes. There was no impurity or greed within her eyes, only pure admiration, as she witnessed how Xiao Jin was being carried in Bai Rouyun's arms.

"Mother, Sister Jin is amazing. She told me so many things before, and I am very curious about our oldest brother. Is Brother Bao really that scary?"

Bai Rouyun could not help but smirk as she looked at her two daughters. They were absolutely adorable, and she held onto Xiao Jin before leaning forward and squeezing Jiaojiao's cheek gently.

"So soft!" Bai Rouyun exclaimed happily as she felt a little like those annoying grandparents that could not leave the youngsters of the family alone.

"Brother Bao is a bit taciturn but he is a good boy. He has been alone for many thousands of years, and he has seen those he loved leave him. It has made him a bit scared about getting close to others, since he fears that they might also disappear one day."

Bai Rouyun understood the thoughts of Xiao Bao very clearly, and she had no qualms about selling out the secret emotions of her son to the newly adopted daughter.

While Bai Rouyun was telling the little girl about the innermost secrets of Xiao Bao, the spirit was standing at another floor of the pagoda, and his face had flushed red in embarrassment.

"Bad woman. Who are you to tell others my secrets?"

Although Xiao Bao's words were meant to be angry, the tone of voice was soft and contained some helplessness but also happiness. The fact that she had understood his innermost thoughts so clearly made him feel both happy and a bit shy.

Although he had quickly dealt with the formations, he still waited a bit before returning to the first tier of the pagoda, as he wished for the suspicious redness on his cheeks to fade away. He still had his own pride he wished to maintain.

By the time he reappeared, both Xiao Hua and Xiao Mao had finished a session of cultivation, and the whole group of children had banded together and were laughing and talking amongst each other.

The atmosphere was upbeat and the clear sound of voices would ring out, clearly showing the excitement and happiness. Such a lively version of the Primal Chaos Dimension was not often seen. Even when he had previous masters, the dimension was still silent and lonely.

Everyone would be aware of the rarity of this Primal Chaos Pagoda, and it made perfect sense to keep it a secret. As such, they would not even let their lovers enter the Primal Chaos Dimension, as they feared that this treasure would be robbed of them, but it was precisely this constant fear of the entire world that made the previous masters die one after another.

Although it was not a good idea to tell the entire world that the Primal Chaos Pagoda was in their hands, it was also important to be able to trust others. Not everyone had a bad character, and when a cultivator became paranoid, many things would start to go wrong.
