Chapter 822: Chapter 56: Luo Xiaohong Departs

The crisp and playful voice was as melodious as an oriole in a valley, drowning out all the angry voices of the cultivators in the teahouse.

Everyone was stunned. Those who came to Jianxian City were not weaklings; they all knew that someone who could easily suppress everyone’s voices like this must have incredibly remarkable cultivation.

In an instant, countless gazes turned towards the source of the sound.

At a tea table, there was a sweet girl in a five-colored skirt, barefoot, holding a large pancake and eating it with relish.

Beside her sat a tall and sturdy man, and on the other side was a tall, cold, and stunning woman.

This woman was extremely beautiful; her long hair half snow-white and half crimson red, accompanied by an elegant and aloof demeanor, made one’s heart almost stop.

Even more striking was that the exceedingly beautiful woman’s belly was slightly bulging, evidently pregnant.

Many people recognized this woman and exclaimed:

"Saintess Xia!!"

"It’s Saintess Xia! So beautiful!"

"Saintess Xia is really pregnant?! Ah ah ah!"

"The man next to Saintess Xia... Qin Gengyun?!"

"What are you talking about? Address him as Sect Leader Qin!"

"Who is the girl beside Saintess Xia and Qin Gengyun?"

"Was it her speaking just now?"

The many cultivators were still discussing in shock when the pure and sweet Five-Color Maiden finished her pancake and exclaimed:

"Sister’s pancakes are so delicious!"

A brave person dared to ask her, "Fellow Daoist, may I ask your name? What did you mean by what you said just now?"

The girl blinked and replied, "My name is Luo Xiaohong, and I am Qin Gengyun’s concubine."

"..."

"..."

The teahouse fell into prolonged silence.

Qin Gengyun reluctantly took Luo Xiaohong’s hand, "Xiaohong, it’s time for us to leave."

Luo Xiaohong pouted, "I want to keep listening."

Xia Qinglian also took her hand, "Don’t you want to learn how to make pancakes? I’ll teach you when we return."

Luo Xiaohong immediately smiled, "Alright!"

Qin Gengyun and Xia Qinglian each held Luo Xiaohong’s hand, like parents holding a child, and the three figures suddenly disappeared.

Moments later, a burst of exclamations and frantic cries echoed throughout the teahouse, reaching into the sky.

"The Tao Spirit Body has actually become Qin Gengyun’s concubine?!"

"Oh my god, the Rainbow Fairy was really sullied by Qin Gengyun!"

"Qin Gengyun actually possesses the first and second in the world?!"

"On one side is Saintess Xia, on the other the Tao Spirit Body, damn what kind of lucky fortune is this!"

"Good-for-nothing guy, I’m so angry!!"

"Boohoo, I don’t believe it, I don’t believe it!"

In a distant inn, Qin Gengyun frowned at Luo Xiaohong, "Xiaohong, why do you keep telling everyone that you’re my concubine?"

Luo Xiaohong said, "But I am your concubine! We’ve held the ceremony!"

During the journey, Luo Xiaohong was "colored" by the crowd every day, and now she firmly believed in her identity as Qin Gengyun’s concubine.

Qin Gengyun, however, hadn’t anticipated that the girl would loudly declare their relationship as soon as she entered the city.

Even his thick skin felt the heat on his face.

But Luo Xiaohong had a perfectly natural expression.

Xia Qinglian gave Qin Gengyun a sidelong glance, taking Luo Xiaohong’s hand, "Xiaohong, let’s ignore him. I’ll teach you how to make pancakes."

"Alright!"

Luo Xiaohong, very happy, followed Xia Qinglian and left.

After the two left, Mo Xiaolan, Yun Wu, Si Minglan, and Wei Wan walked in.

Si Minglan chuckled, "Qin Gengyun, congratulations, it seems the Tao Spirit Body has completely conformed to your shape."

Qin Gengyun reluctantly replied, "Si Minglan, Xiaohong and I have done nothing, don’t talk nonsense."

Mo Xiaolan said seriously, "We’ve already engraved a different concept from the Immortal Flying Pavilion in the Tao Spirit Body’s heart, now we just have to see the Immortal Flying Pavilion’s reaction."

Suddenly, next door, Xia Qinglian’s cold voice sounded:

"Who are you?"

Everyone was startled, swiftly moving to the adjacent room, seeing a fair and delicate child standing before Xia Qinglian and Luo Xiaohong.

He appeared suddenly, without anyone taking notice.

The child didn’t answer Xia Qinglian, instead looked at Luo Xiaohong, "Senior Sister, Master wants you to return."

Luo Xiaohong clearly recognized this child, immediately replied, "Xiaohua, I don’t want to go back yet."

The child named "Xiaohua" spoke sternly, "Master said you disobeyed the sect’s orders, and I’m ordered to take you back."

Luo Xiaohong refused again, "But I want to be with my friends, sister, and husband."

Xiaohua paused, looking coldly at Qin Gengyun, "Has your Tao Heart really been tainted by this man?"

"No, I’m very happy with my husband, my Tao Heart has recovered, see!"

Luo Xiaohong took out the Five-Colored Short Sword, its cracks inexplicably restored, though the vibrant colors had dimmed slightly.

Upon closer inspection, it wasn’t that the colors had dulled, but rather black, white, and gray hues had subtly mixed among them, making the rainbow less dazzling.

Xiaohua frowned, glaring at Qin Gengyun and the others, "You actually disturbed my senior sister’s Tao Heart?!"

Xia Qinglian snorted coldly, "Xiaohong wishes to see the world, we let her see it. How she decides about her Tao Heart is her choice; it’s better than the false Tao Heart you all enforced on her."

"You spew lies!!"

Xiaohua roared, blue and purple light glowed in his hand, ready to strike.

"I bet Xiaohua can’t use his spiritual power."

The crisp voice rose, Xiaohua’s hand light disappeared, he looked at Luo Xiaohong in disbelief:

"Senior Sister, you’re actually siding with outsiders against me?!"

Luo Xiaohong walked up to Xiaohua, "I’ll go back with you."

"Xiaohong?"

Yun Wu quickly shouted, having gotten along well with Luo Xiaohong throughout the journey, the two were like sisters in age.

Seeing Luo Xiaohong about to return to the Immortal Flying Pavilion, she felt reluctant.

Mo Xiaolan also said, "Xiaohong, your Tao Heart is your own, if you don’t want to go back to Immortal Flying Peak, we can help you."

Qin Gengyun stepped forward, his muscles beginning to bulge, "Xiaohong, since you’ve called me husband, I will protect you."

Luo Xiaohong paused, slowly turned back, her big eyes seemed misty:

"Master is very powerful, you can’t beat him. If you all die, then I won’t have friends, sister, and husband anymore. I’ll go back and ask Master not to harm you, you wait for me."

With that, she followed the child and flew out of the inn, transforming into a rainbow, directly towards the far Immortal Flying Peak.

Everyone watched the rainbow fade away, for a long time, Yun Wu murmured:

"Xiaohong just left like that?"

Wei Wan smiled, "She was always a disciple of the Immortal Flying Pavilion, we were merely superficially engaging with her along the way, what do you have to be sad about?"

Yun Wu curiously said, "Sister Wan, why are your eyes red?"

"Xiaowu, what nonsense are you talking? My eyes are just watering from the smoke!"
