Chapter 131 - Stop Hiding
Chapter 131 - Stop Hiding
Hearing Bai Rouyun’s heartfelt thoughts, Li Moyun’s heart softened into a puddle. Yes, what did it matter, whether this dragon was with him or her, it would protect both of them in the future.
He glanced at the dragon and instantly knew that it was a little boy. Thinking about this, he was happy enough that it had connected with him, as he felt that Bai Rouyun already had too many small children around her. She already had Xiao Bao and Xiao Jin. If she got a little dragon too, then she would be spending all her time on her so-called children, and forget all about him.
Li Moyun would never admit that he was jealous, but he made a sudden decision not to leave Bai Rouyun again.
It was true that he had always hidden his identity as the Eternal Shadow Lord from others, and masked his identity as being just the War God from the Richu Empire, but there was actually no need for him to continue acting like this.
He had initially needed to do so in order to protect himself and his subordinates. Starting a new faction was dangerous, and people would not let him advance smoothly, so he had to hide in the shadows. However, he was now at a stage where barely anyone in the entire continent could contend against him.
He was at the Innate Realm, Violet Tier, and Seventh layer. He could even slightly feel the breakthrough of him reaching the Ascended Realm soon.
Since he was already at the peak of the continent, did he really need to hide his head, and suffer from misunderstandings?
Why not admit who he was and allow his wife to live with her head held high?
"Little Chu," Li Moyun called for his guard, and Little Chu entered the room instantly, looking at the floor, and not daring to look at either Bai Rouyun or Li Moyun. He did not know what they had been doing, but this was their private chamber. It would be rude to look around.
"Go to the battlefield and inform Feng Yi about my orders. I want him to instantly end the war, even if they have to display their abilities, then so be it. I do not want to return to the battlefield.
"After finishing the campaign, he is to return to the Imperial Capital and inform His Highness, the Emperor about my true identity, and tell him to stop bothering me in the future.
"I would prefer it, if he can avoid telling my concubine mother about the truth, as I do not wish for her to cause problems, and he should also warn the Emperor that I will not allow him to abuse my reputation."
Little Chu, who had been staring at the ground, raised his head in shock when he heard Li Moyun’s orders. Were they finally moving out of the shadows? Were they allowed to upright call themself members of the Eternal Shadow Palace?
However, Little Chu quickly understood the severity of the matter when he saw the serious expression on Li Moyun’s face, and he bowed deeply. "This subordinate obeys," he said as he cupped his fists and vanished from the room, rushing towards the battlefield.
Bai Rouyun frowned. She understood that Li Moyun had decided to stop hiding, but she could not understand why.
"Don’t overthink," he said, as he grabbed her waist and dragged her into a warm embrace. "I am just doing what I feel must be done. I will not leave your side in the future; we will always be together," he promised.
Hearing his sweet promise, Bai Rouyun’s heart felt a trace of warmth erupting deep within, and a soft smile adorned her lips. She nodded her head, and looked admiringly at Li Moyun.
Then her eyes landed on the small dragon hatchling who was lying on the table, curled up into a ball, looking a bit like a small golden ornament.
"What do you plan on naming it?" she asked, confused as she looked at the little creature that seemed as if it could sleep during the destruction of the world.
"Since you already have a Xiao Jin and a Xiao Bao, why not Xiao Long?" he asked, looking at Bai Rouyun to hear her opinion.
Bai Rouyun’s lips twitched when she heard his naming ability. He was as bad as she was, but there was nothing wrong with the name.
However, who would call an oppressive and intimidating beast Xiao Long? When it grew up and became a real divine beast that would cause fear to erupt in everyone’s hearts, it would never dare to let anyone know its name.
However, such thoughts never occurred to Li Moyun. He just smiled as he saw that Bai Rouyun quite liked the name, and he smiled gently when seeing that the previous unhappiness and worries had dissipated.
Although she had been worried about her heritage, she was much more relaxed now. She was no longer scared or unsure, and Li Moyun felt much happier seeing her like this. He intentionally avoided the subject of her family, not wanting to make her sad again, and instead dragged her to the bed.
"You did not get a good rest last night," he said with certainty. Although she looked better, he could see that she was exhausted after thinking about everything for so long.
"Why don’t we lay down and take a nap?" he asked, but his words caused Bai Rouyun to blush. Previously it did not matter too much if they had some physical contact, but their relationship had changed.
Initially, Bai Rouyun regarded their marriage as temporary, but now Li Moyun had taken root in her heart. Sharing a bed with him was quite embarrassing.
