Chapter 954: Extra: Immortal World (Eleven)
The avatars of Lou Mu Yan and Ming Xiu often accompanied the three children. Sometimes, when the original body in the Immortal World had comprehended, the avatars would also cultivate together in seclusion.
Lan Ruo Li liked these three children very much, so he basically raised Lou Mu Yan two’s children by himself.
Lan Ruo Li had a pure heart, and Lou Mu Yan discovered that his special constitution allowed him to cultivate a skill from the Immortal World, so she taught it to him. After the mastery, his intelligence would return to the level of a normal person.
Recently, he had achieved great mastery in this skill, and went into seclusion from time to time, so he spent a bit less time taking care of the three children.
Ming Xi usually pestered Lan Ruo Li the most, even more than Ming Xiu and Lou Mu Yan. Seeing that Lan Ruo Li often went into seclusion recently, she wanted him to exit seclusion and attract his attention by burning the back hall.
Seeing her daughter glaring at her eldest son with daggers in her eyes, Lou Mu Yan couldn’t resist holding her forehead.
She had already investigated clearly what this little thing had in mind. She couldn’t help but furrow her brows, pretending to put on a cold expression and said: “What grilled chicken wings? It’s obvious that you set the fire on purpose. It seems you want to go to the Reflection Cliff to stay for a while.”
She built a mountain at the back of the Ming Palace Royal Clan and the Lou Clan each, setting up arrays and restrictions around it. When the three children made mistakes, they would be sent in to reflect by themselves. They could only come out after taking their mistakes seriously.
After having the Reflection Cliff, the three extremely weird, lively, and naughty children indeed became peaceful and quite for a while.
The beautiful little girl’s face immediately wrinkled up when she heard Lou Mu Yan’s words. She knew that her mother hated children who lied the most.
She tugged Lou Mu Yan’s sleeve pitifully and admitted her mistake obediently, “Mum, I was wrong, I just missed Big Brother Ruo Li.”
The Reflection Cliff was the most annoying thing, she didn’t want to go there again.
Lou Mu Yan gently flicked her forehead with her finger, “How many times have I told you, it’s Uncle Ruo Li.”
“Mum, I’ll marry Big Brother Ruo Li in the future, if I call him Uncle, the seniority gap is too big, and it’d be inappropriate.” Ming Xi said seriously, raising her head.
“…” Lou Mu Yan and Ming Xiu were dumbfounded when they heard Ming Xi’s words.
Ming Xiu furrowed his brows and asked in a serious voice: “Why does Little Xi’er want to marry Big Brother Ruo Li?”
“Seventh Uncle said that if you want to marry, you must marry a virtuous and beautiful wife. Big Brother Ruo Li is beautiful and virtuous, then I will marry him in the future, lest he benefits others.”
Ming Xi smiled with sparkling eyes and continued: “Mum often says that ‘wealthy water shouldn’t flow into other people’s fields’, and Big Brother Ruo Li can’t flow into other people’s fields either.”
Lou Mu Yan’s lips twitched—just what was what. She didn’t expect that her daughter would want to get married at such a young age. Not only was she smarter than her age, but she was also precocious.
She thought about it, but she didn’t scold her daughter.
She watched Lan Ruo Li grow up. Although his intelligence had returned to the level of a normal person, but his temperament was still pure and sunny. If he and her daughter developed since young, he could be a rather rare and precious husband in the future.
And judging from the age of cultivators, Ruo Li and her daughter wouldn’t be considered an old husband and young wife.
As long as her daughter and Lan Ruo Li were happy in the future, she didn’t care about seniority.
Ming Xiu’s face darkened. That damned Seventh Elder Brother, teaching his daughter nonsense all day long.
As soon as he raised his head, he saw Lou Mu Yan’s thoughtful look, and his heart dropped, guessing what she was thinking.
“Alright now, let them follow fate regarding things of the future.” Ming Xiu said with helplessness in his eyes.
If his daughter and Lan Ruo Li could fall in love with each other in the future, then he wouldn’t object.
Although he was unhappy that the precious daughter he had pampered growing up would get married in the future, but he wouldn’t interfere for the sake of his daughter’s happiness.
“Don’t listen to the nonsense your Seventh Uncle talks about all day long with no filter.” Ming Xiu said to the three children with a stern expression.
“I know, I know, Seventh Uncle is a romantic seed, I’ve already told Big Brothers to stop playing with him.” Ming Xi pouted and said.
The other two pretty boys, looking dignified and strong, nodded and said, “Seventh Uncle has so many concubines, we don’t want to be so irresponsible like him.”
“…”
Ming Xiu and Lou Mu Yan looked at each other and were extremely speechless. It seemed that they really need to limit their children and the Seventh Prince from going out to play in the future.
While the two were helpless, a white silhouette walked over from not far away.
The eyes of Ming Xi, who was sitting on Lou Mu Yan’s lap, lit up and she immediately climbed down from her legs and ran towards the white silhouette.
“Ruo Li, Ruo Li!”
Lan Ruo Li’s originally handsome and calm expression burst with a joyful smile as soon as he saw the little girl. He picked her up and kissed her little cheek, “Naughty.”
Ming Xi wrapped her small arms around Lan Ruo Li’s neck, rubbed his face and giggled happily, “I like Ruo Li the most.”
Lou Mu Yan couldn’t resist holding her forehead, seeing Ruo Li holding her daughter as if he feared her flying away and how he pampered her—he’d be absolutely eaten solid in the future.
The two little boys were also brought up by Lan Ruo Li and were very close to him. When they saw him coming out of seclusion, they immediately ran up and hugged one leg each.
“Ruo Li really has patience.” Lou Mu Yan looked at Lan Ruo Li playing with the three little ones not far away with smiles and warmth in his eyes.
Ming Xiu reached out and held one of her hands, saying with a smile: “Only Ruo Li can bear these three little ancestors.”
Emperor Ming and the seniors of the Lou Clan loved the three little ones very much, but they also gave them a lot of headaches and couldn’t control them at all. Only Lou Mu Yan and Ruo Li could frighten the three little ones.
A communication talisman floated in from a distance and fell into Lou Mu Yan’s hands.
She browsed through it and answered with a smile on her lips: “Qing Han has already comprehended and broken through.”
“I wonder which Immortal Realm he would ascend to. If he’s close to us, we can form a team to go find your Master.” Ming Xiu paused, then said: “Eldest Brother and Senior Brother have also touched the edge of Immortal.”
With the ascension experience and teachings of Lou Mu Yan and Ming Xiu, Lou Mu Bai and Su Jin weren’t far away from a breakthrough either, but Emperor Ming and the others probably should still require some time.
Lou Mu Yan nodded: “Then we can gather in the Immortal World again. But Qing Han is from the sea race, and the spatial nodes he ascends to will be restricted by the Laws, sending him to the Immortal Realm of the sea race’s territory. If we want to unite with him, we still need to comprehend and cultivate until Honoured Venerable.”
“Mm, this mission should be very beneficial to us.” Ming Xiu thought for a while, then asked: “Did Grandpa call you over yesterday for something?”
Lou Mu Yan took out a portrait from her interspatial ring and said: “Grandpa gave me a portrait of the Ancestor of the Lou Clan. I heard that the Ancestor has ascended already but left an ancestral doctrine. If there are Lou Clan members who ascend, they must find the main family and return to the family when they arrive on the Immortal World.
“We transformed our elemental energy into celestial energy in the Immortal World and now have the ability to protect ourselves. Only then did Grandpa take out the portrait and hope that we can get information about finding our Ancestor.” She added.
Ming Xiu opened the portrait and memorised the person on it, “After completing this mission, let’s start asking around.”
Grandpa Lou had always been concerned about recognising their ancestors and returning to the clan, so they naturally would try their best to complete his wish for him.
Random note: I’ll just imagine a healthy romantic development between Ming Xi and Lan Ruo Li since this story doesn’t explore this point much. Miao Miao and Lou Mu Ting’s was already a bit concerning hahaha…
