Forsaken Immortals Chapter 219 - Another Kind Of Continent

Chapter 219 - Another Kind Of Continent

There were many things that Li Moyun needed to solve before it would be possible for him to leave the continent.

He was the Eternal Shadow Lord, and the many members of the Eternal Shadow Palace were under his command. He could not leave them without giving them some sort of information, but to him, these matters would have to be considered after speaking with Bai Rouyun.

He knew that she was already in a dangerous position, and when he left, she would lose the advantage of the intimidation that he gave the rest of the continent. Others might no longer be that cautious when dealing with her, and she would have a much more challenging growth.

Every cultivator was aware that pressure was needed to grow and mature, but he still did not wish for her to encounter even the slightest harm.

But when Li Moyun considered the dangers that were present in the Prison Continent and then compared them to the ones in the Wushi Continent, then he knew where he had to go.

The current continent did, indeed, pose a certain amount of threat to Bai Rouyun, but here she had the entire Eternal Shadow Palace to back her up. With them, while she still might encounter some difficulties, at least her life should be guaranteed.

If he did not go to the Wushi Continent to create some sort of faction there, then she might really die when it was her time to ascend to this realm.

It was true that Xiao Long was a revered and respected figure within the Golden Dragon Clan, but Li Moyun was not Xiao Long. While they did have a contract, he was not willing to use this clan for his own sake. This was not how one would treat their friends.

Also, while Li Moyun might not be exceptional when compared to other members of the younger generation in the Wushi Continent, he had gotten to this level while being in a place that was not suitable for cultivation. He did not doubt that when he entered the higher realms, he would be like a fish in water, and his talents would naturally be on full display.

It was not that Li Moyun was arrogant, but he knew himself and his own talents. The only other figures in their continent who had been able to rival his cultivation speed were Bai Rouyun and Xue Jingyu.

Their talent was not something that others could compete against. Others were still not aware of Bai Rouyun's frightening ability, but Xue Jingyu and Li Moyun were hailed as the two most outstanding geniuses in the history of their continent.

After reaching an agreement with the experts, Li Moyun hurried back to Canglan City. He felt worried and uncomfortable. He was not sure of how to inform his little wife of his decision. He did not doubt that she would not try to hold him back, but he still feared that she might be feeling lonely without him, or that she might be sad. He had not even left yet, but he was already beginning to miss her.

Xiao Long was silently wrapped around his neck. The young dragon could sense the unease within Li Moyun's heart. Obviously, he did not wish to leave Bai Rouyun, but for her sake, he could make decisions that went against what he truly felt.

Such emotions made Xiao Long feel complicated. He was proud of Li Moyun's ability to decide upon the most suitable path for them to take, but he was also sad to see him feel so depressed and in pain.

The journey back to Canglan City was made in silence. Xiao Long knew that Li Moyun needed time to consider his way of informing Bai Rouyun of his decision, and while he wished to help, he was simply not in a position to do so.

The city of Canglan was not the biggest on the continent. Most of the bigger cities were either the capitals of the major empires, or they were the cities that were lying at the foot of the various sect's mountains.

However, even if these three experts from the Wushi Continent were to witness those cities, they would still feel small and town-like as they were used to the cities within the realm above.

The citizens of Canglan City knew of Li Moyun's ident.i.ty, and they all respected him, but also feared him. Many looked at him with reverence, but no one tried to approach him, and their expressions were evident to the experts that had come from the Golden Dragon Clan.

They knew that Li Moyun was likely to be famous within the Prison Continent, as his strength and talent were really too good when compared to that of others down here, but they did not expect it to be this obvious.

While it was true that the Wushi Continent was much more developed than here, the gap between one's social standing was also much more apparent.

In the Wushi Continent, even if one was poor, or from a humble background, it was still possible to become someone outstanding. While one's background was important, what was the most important was the person's individual strength.

Here, on the Prison Continent, many could not even cultivate, and they felt an innate fear towards those with the power to extinguish their lives casually.

It seemed that they did still not understand much of what life was like in these lower realms.

Li Moyun had not noticed the attention he was getting. It was nothing new for him, and currently, his mind was focused on the conversation he was about to have with Bai Rouyun.

Was she going to forgive him? Would she be reluctant to see him leave? Or was she going to send him away with happiness, and forget about him after some time?
