At this time, Chen Xi was guarding Mu Nianci. With his medical skills, it was much safer for him to deliver her baby himself than to find a midwife. He did not have as many taboos as the ancients.

Mu Nianci gave birth to a healthy boy. Normally, newborn babies are ugly, but this boy grew up well. After a few days, he became more and more handsome. It was obvious that he was heading towards being 'ordinary'.

Chen Xi was amazed. Did he have to let his son be the protagonist?

It's a pity that his son is not Yang Guo, and will not suffer the same fate. With his protection, his son will only get better and better.

As for his son's name, Chen Xi, who was bad at naming, was too lazy to think of one. He just combined the two surnames to create a new name, Chen Mu.

There is nothing wrong with the name Chen Mu, but Xiao Longnu is unhappy and asks her father to give her a big name as well. Why does her younger brother have one but she doesn't?

What Xiaolongnu wanted was a name with a surname. She was not clear about her own identity. In her opinion, she should take her father's surname.

Okay, since I’ve raised her as my own daughter, I’ll just give her the surname Chen. As for the name, let Kawakami Tomie think of it.

Kawakami Tomie was also worried. It happened to rain on the day Xiaolongnu made the request, so she just decided to call her Chen Yuluo and still call her Long'er on weekdays.

This name made Chen Xi speechless. He thought of Li Chuqing, who got her name in the same way. It rained for three days before she was born, and the sky began to clear up when she was born, so she was named Chuqing.

Privately, Chen Xi also asked Kawakami Tomie: "Did you do this on purpose?"

Tomie Kawakami: "???"

Well, it seems not.

When Chen Mu was one month old, Huang Yaoshi came and gave the child many full-month gifts. In his words, this was his love for his little disciple.

Looking at Chen Mu, Huang Yaoshi really liked him. It was obvious at first glance that this child must be the successor of Peach Blossom Island.

After looking at the child for a while, Huang Yaoshi talked to Chen Xi about the follow-up events. Guo Jing was growing very fast, but Huang Rong was standing still. He felt that this was not going well, so he prepared to intervene forcibly.

"Bring Rong'er back to Peach Blossom Island to practice, and wait for Guo Jing to come and propose marriage?" Chen Xi couldn't help but laugh: "Are you accepting your fate?"

“Ah~~” Huang Yaoshi sighed and said nothing. What could he do if he didn’t admit it?

"That's good. Guo Jing is not stupid. He is actually very wise. Give him enough time and he will grow up sooner or later."

"hope so."

"I'm quite optimistic about him. He's a late bloomer. The key is that he's good to Rong'er. What else can you be dissatisfied with?"

Huang Yaoshi also knew that what Chen Xi said made sense, but he just felt uncomfortable. It was a typical mentality of a daughter-slave.

The fate of Guo Jing and Huang Rong did not change much, but something unexpected happened to Li Mochou, which was caused by a robbery.

In Dali Kingdom, a merchant caravan was robbed. The robbers were ruthless and had no intention of leaving anyone alive. Lu Zhanyuan, who was traveling with the caravan, managed to escape by luck and fled on horseback, but he was seriously injured and was caught up before he had gotten far.

At this time, Li Mochou appeared. Seeing someone committing a crime in front of her, she could not stand by and watch. She drew her sword and blocked Lu Zhanyuan behind her, saying loudly, "Why are you so aggressive, sir?"

Ruhua was also stunned when she looked at Li Mochou. What a beautiful girl! It was such a pity that such a beautiful woman became a Taoist nun.

Lu Zhanyuan fell to the ground, the cold air invaded his meridians, and he was in great pain. He gritted his teeth and reminded: "Fairy, be careful, the other party is a demon girl from Yihua Palace."

Li Mochou was also stunned when he heard this. Is it Yihua Palace again?

Having entered the martial arts world for more than two months, Li Mochou is no longer the simple little Taoist nun she used to be. Mainly because she has suffered a lot of losses during this period, but fortunately they were all small losses.

This was also because Chen Xi's reminder at the beginning worked, making Li Mochou more cautious when she was traveling in the world. But even so, there were still too many bad guys and she had too little experience.

Deep down, Li Mochou was still quite grateful to the Young Master Yihua. If it weren't for him, she might have suffered a great loss. The most dangerous time was when she encountered a flower thief.

But she has heard a lot about Yihua Palace's reputation, and it's really not good. Just like he said, he is not a good person.

Good person or bad person, this is not absolute but relative. At least in Li Mochou's view, Master Yihua is her benefactor.

Now that he was facing the people from Yihua Palace, Li Mochou no longer had so much hostility. He put the sword back into the sheath and performed the Taoist ceremony: "I am Li Mochou from the Ancient Tomb Sect, and I am honored to meet the fairy from Yihua Palace."

Ruhua could see that the other party had no hostility, so she returned the greeting: "I don't deserve the title of fairy, may I ask, Taoist priest, do you have any history with my Yihua Palace?"

"I have received some pointers from Master Yihua."

Lu Zhanyuan, who was behind, saw the two men trying to make friends and had a bad feeling. He struggled to get up and run away, but fell to the ground again and had to reveal his identity: "I am Lu Zhanyuan. I have nothing to do with that caravan. I am just traveling with them."

Ruhua is unmoved, it doesn't matter if they are related or not, they all have to die.

Li Mochou was horrified and turned around quickly to look. Was this the disaster that Master Yihua had warned her about?

She hadn't noticed it before, but now when she looked at him again, the other person's appearance was not bad. Li Mochou felt a little favorable impression in her heart, but she suppressed it in an instant and became more suspicious. Why was he her calamity?

Li Mochou couldn't figure it out, so she could only turn around and look at Ruhua again: "Excuse me, fairy, is Master Yihua good at geomancy?"

Ruhua shook her head and said, "Young Master's strength is unpredictable. It is not something I can know what he is good at."

do not know?

Li Mochou was in a state of confusion and felt that things were a little strange. How about... asking Master Yihua?

While Li Mochou was in a daze, Ruhua took action. She moved in front of Lu Zhanyuan and stabbed him with the sword in her hand.

Li Mochou did react, but at the moment when she wanted to stop it, she remembered Chen Xi's words, asking her to kill the stranger Lu Zhanyuan personally. She couldn't do it, but what if she didn't care?

It was during this moment of hesitation that Ruhua's sword had already pierced into Lu Zhanyuan's heart. The latter opened his mouth, as if he wanted to say something, but nothing came out.

In Lu Zhanyuan's heart, he always felt that things shouldn't be like this, but he was no longer able to change anything.

Lu Zhanyuan died just like that, but the questions in Li Mochou's heart were not answered.

Ruhua looked at Li Mochou, then thought about her own master's style, and thought, could this be another target of her master's?

The young master is really playing more and more out of control. Now he even doesn't let the Taoist nun go. Should I give him some help?

Ruhua made an invitation: "Fairy, if you have something you want to ask my master, why don't you come back to Yihua Palace with me?"

"This..." Li Mochou was slightly tempted: "Is it convenient?"

"It's not inconvenient." Ruhua said with a smile: "Yihua Palace is not a forbidden place. As long as the appearance meets the requirements, anyone can come as a guest."

Li Mochou blinked her eyes. What a strange standard. It was based on the face?

The aftermath of the robbery of the caravan was handled by other people. Ruhua was about to return to Yihua Palace to report on her work, so she took Li Mochou with her.

On the way back to Yihua Palace, Li Mochou was very keenly aware of the difference between Ruhua and herself when they walked alone. Ruhua was obviously also a beauty, but she did not encounter so many troubles.

On the contrary, more people are afraid of being targeted by Ruhua.

"Why is this?" Li Mochou asked, not quite understanding.

"Because of this." Ruhua pointed at the black jade plum blossoms on her clothes and the hilt of her sword and said, "This is the symbol of Yihua Palace. No one dares to provoke Yihua Palace."

"But..." Li Mochou considered it again and again, and finally said: "But the reputation of Yihua Palace is not very good."

"So what?" Ruhua said nonchalantly, "When should we in Yihua Palace care about other people's opinions? As long as we live happily, that's all that matters."

"This...this..." Li Mochou was a little confused.

"The essence of this world is cannibalism. If you don't want to be eaten, then be the one who eats people. What's the point of reputation? It's just a burden."

Li Mochou, who was a blank slate, had some black spots on her after a brief journey through the world. This time when she met Ruhua, she began to be stained with black on a large scale and was brainwashed bit by bit by him.

Ruhua didn't even have to do anything, but the different experiences of the two people were enough to shock Li Mochou. She didn't receive such treatment when she was wandering alone in the world.

"You, obviously you are good at martial arts, but you are too soft-hearted. You think you are kind, but in fact, in the eyes of outsiders, you are easy to bully."

"..."

"If it were me, I would think the same. Even if I bullied you, so what? You wouldn't kill anyone anyway. The cost of committing a crime is so low, so why not give it a try?"

"..."

"Look at me again. Everyone in the world knows that Yihua Palace is ruthless, so no one dares to cause trouble to me because they can't afford the price."

"..."

"A famous and upright sect? A good reputation? It's useless. It only brings endless troubles and is burdened by the reputation. It's so frustrating to venture into the martial arts world. It's better to stay in the sect."

"..."

Li Mochou gradually came to an epiphany. Sure enough, this is the real world of martial arts, right?

I was too naive in the past. Even when I encountered bad things, I couldn't bear to kill anyone. This gave those people the confidence to continue doing evil.

Look at Ruhua, she doesn't have to worry so much. No one dares to provoke Yihua Palace. Yet even in this situation, Ruhua is still very cautious. She checks everything she does carefully so as not to expose any weaknesses.

Thinking about his own performance again, Li Mochou smiled bitterly. Was he really not suited to traveling the world?

Chapter 161 Proposal

Ruhua met Shishu on the road. The two hadn't seen each other for a long time, so they hugged each other warmly. The people around them just glanced at them secretly at most, and no one dared to come up and talk to them.

No matter how much a young man claims to be a romantic and dashing man, he will retreat when he encounters the Yihua Palace. Those flower thieves in the world will even take a detour. If they are eyeing the disciples of the Yihua Palace, they must be tired of living.

Li Mochou watched with great envy, wishing that the Ancient Tomb Sect could become so powerful one day.

Yes, Li Mochou's mentality has changed. What she wants now is for the Ancient Tomb Sect to become powerful and become a signboard to protect her disciples from wind and rain. As for whether it has a good reputation or not, it doesn't matter.

With this idea in mind, Li Mochou wanted to meet Master Yihua even more. She wanted to learn from him how to make her sect stronger. In the future, when she became the leader of the Ancient Tomb Sect, she would follow his example.

Ruhua and Shishu took Li Mochou back to Yihua Palace. In their eyes, this Taoist nun was one of the young master's concubines, just like Mu Nianci in the past.

As soon as Li Mochou stepped into Xiuyu Valley, she was attracted by the environment here. Compared with the Tomb Sect that never sees the sun, this is the place where girls should stay.

Looking at the sea of ​​flowers all over the mountains, Li Mochou couldn't help but murmur, "It would be great if I could live here."

Ruhua and Shishu looked at each other and smiled. As expected, they had guessed right.

"It's not easy to live here." Ruhua said casually, "If you follow my young master, you can live here forever."

Li Mochou's face instantly turned red: "Don't, don't tease me."

"What kind of Taoist priest are you? You are not a naturalized Taoist priest. You don't even have a Taoist disc. To put it bluntly, you can return to secular life if you want to. You are not a formal monk."

"Huh?" Li Mochou was stunned. Did she have been a fake Taoist priest for so many years?

Shishu explained: "The Quanzhen Sect next to your Ancient Tomb Sect is a legitimate Taoist sect. Every Taoist priest is registered and has a Taoist disc."

"Then...what about our Tomb Clan?"

"At most, it is a non-governmental organization, not officially recognized. Psychologically, you think of yourselves as monks, but in terms of identity, you are just ordinary civilians."

"This, this..." Li Mochou was a little confused.

"So, you might as well consider whether you want to follow my young master."

"Don't, don't make such a joke." Li Mochou hurriedly refused, but a seed was planted in her heart.

When Chen Xi learned that Li Mochou had arrived, he was also full of questions. Why did that girl come to see him?

Ruhua and Shishu explained it to him, which made Chen Xi roll his eyes. What a guy, he really is being blamed for something he didn't know. When did I target Li Mochou?

But since the person was already here, it would be bad not to see her. Chen Xi, who had nothing to do, simply met Li Mochou in the yard. When they met this time, he keenly discovered that the other person had changed. Her eyes were no longer as clear as before, nor were they stupid anymore, but revealed confusion.

Li Mochou was indeed very confused and had too many questions in her mind, but the moment she saw Chen Xi, she found that she couldn't speak.

Two months of experience in the martial arts world has made her not as naive as she was before. After seeing so many men, she inevitably has some thoughts in her mind. The girl's love for others is a human instinct, plus the seeds planted by Ruhua.

Li Mochou looked at Chen Xi's face. The other party was fine, but she was extremely shy. She stood there with her head down, not daring to speak.

"Please sit down. You are a guest. Don't be so nervous. Relax. There are not many rules here."

"Ah... yes."

Li Mochou sat on the stool obediently, but still kept her head down, not daring to look at Chen Xi.

"Ruhua told me about your experience. It has been more than two months since our last meeting. What do you think?"

"I..." Li Mochou whispered, "I was naive. Thank you for your reminder."

"It's nothing, just a few words, I hope you didn't suffer any loss."

"Yes." Li Mochou responded, and then mustered up the courage to ask: "Excuse me, sir, how did you know about... that person?"

"I dreamed about it."

"Huh?" Li Mochou raised his head in surprise, his face full of disbelief.

"It was really a dream." Chen Xi said nonchalantly, "But in my dream, your ending was not very good."

Li Mochou's heart tightened, and she asked, "What will happen to me?"

Chen Xi briefly explained the original plot. Li Mochou remained silent throughout and did not refute. A voice in her heart reminded her that what the other party said was right.

Li Mochou recalled Lu Zhanyuan's appearance and her own personality, and after a little reasoning, she came to the conclusion that if she contacted him, she would really be deceived.

But how exactly this will happen is just a dream, Li Mochou still asked: "Then aren't you afraid that it's fake?"

"What do you mean?"
