Chapter 1041
<strong><em>I Want to be More Prim and Proper</em></strong>
Mu Yu tucked Tian Ran in after carefully rolling out of bed, ensuring he would not wake her up. Mu Yu offered Xiaoshuai a snack so that thetter would spend the night at Vige Chief Bu’s ce for the night. Mu Yu went to sit on a rock at the tallest peak at Formation Sect to peer eastward, soaking up the warm sunrays as he ran through Dustfallen Mental Cultivation.
“Oh, damn, jumped all the way to Ascension Realm Fourth Layer overnight after sleeping with Tian Ran.”
“Why did you choose to develop your rtionship with her when you’ve prepared yourself to lose your life? Don’t you find yourself selfish?” impugned Ju Mang.
“What do you reckon the correct decision was, then?”
“You should leave her so that she can find someone who loves her more than you do.”
“Nobody loves her more than I do – minus her parents.”
“You certainly don’t sound like you’re prioritising her over yourself. If you like her, you need to learn to push her away. Ruthlessness now will be kindness in the future.”
“That’s silly logic. She has no shoulder to lean on right now. If I push her away, where will she go, wander around until Third Heaven Pce kidnaps her? After I rescue Shifu and Dad, they will take care of her on my behalf. I can leave her side once she has someone to take care of her. Everyone will have to say their goodbyes sooner orter. Until then, I want to do what I can for her and enjoy what time we have together.”“… That still doesn’t justify what you did with her. You’ve given her hope.”
“Why do you have so much to say about it? I blocked your consciousness outst night, didn’t I?”
“I share your body! I wasn’t even given a heads up before you decided to oppress me!”
Mu Yu gently ran his hand along the gap in the rock, brushing the nt that had grown despite the harsh weather. “Haha, I guess that’s the difference between you and I,” Mu Yu stated, thinking,<em> I know I only have feelings toward Qiao Xue because of you and Xuan Ming. Otherwise, I only like Tian Ran.</em>
Upon returning to Formation Pce, Vige Chief Bu, who was eating a y oven roll he prepared himself for breakfast, waved Mu Yu over. “Xiaoshuai told me aboutst night. Youth sure is prime time, hahaha.”
“Hehe, be humble, Grandpa. Be humble…” Mu Yu dipped a piece of bread in soy bean milk to eat, then went over to kick the bed Xiaoshuai was still snoring on. “Breakfast is ready!”
“Present! Present!” Xiaoshuai bolted over, almost tripping over. “Old Fraud’s gray oben bwed (y oven bread) is nice.”
“You have my vote. I grew up on them.”
“I can make them every morning for you two if you like.”
“Will I have a share, Grandpa?” Tian Ran came in, embellishing her green dress with her radiant smile.
“Of course. Of course.” Vige Chief Bu went to fetch a te from the kitchen.
Tian Ran doused her chopsticks in golden spiritual energy to slice the y oven bread into small pieces. Mu Yu watched on the entire time with his brows hiked up until he could not hold it in and pointed out, “Tian Ran, what happened? You used to scarf down your food back at Mount Dustfallen.”
“I need to be a primdy now.”
Mu Yu drank his soy bean milk. “You made the switch overnight? I thought you said you couldn’t possibly do the prim woman thing.”
“Well…” Tian Ran looked down. “If I just stuffed my face while dining with your family, it would be rude, wouldn’t it?”
“Tian Ran is now part of Mu n, so of course she’d be worried her image,” pointed out Vige Chief Bu.
“Grandpa, you are also part of Mu n. Please do not think poorly of me.” Tian Ran’s face resembled a ripe tomato.
“Of course not. I’m not an affluent individual, so I eat however I like.”
“Tian Ran, just be yourself. Grandpa didn’t make many pieces of bread, while Xiaoshuai has already eaten five and is staring at your bowl.”
“I’m hungry.” Xiaoshuai curled his lips.
“Hahaha, I know you have a big appetite, so I prepared a lot for you. Here,” offered Vige Chief Bu.
Tian Ran pinched her chin. “Mu Yu, you won’t leave me, will you?”
“Why the sudden question?”
“I just feel… a bit uneasy. My parents’ whereabouts are unknown, and I don’t want to lose even you.”
Mu Yu assured Tian Ran with a hand hold, “You won’t. I’ll take care of you until we find your parents.”
“Aboutst night…”
“We shared a beautiful dream.”
Xiaoshuai dered, “I’m sharing a bed with Sister Tian Ran tonight. You can sleep on the ground, Mu Yu.”
“Get out of here.”

“Everywhere is Home Inn” in Pill City, which was closed after Daoist Yuande was attacked, finally opened up again in recent days and announced Pill Cauldron Sect had nine rank seven pills, a hundred rank six pills and a thousand rank five pills for ultimate immortals who contributed to the resistance against elemental demons – under the condition that the ultimate immortals showed up at Ultimate Immortals Monument on 8th October to decide on the nine mystic immortals.
The promotion and conditions led to cultivators pouring to the inn in hopes of obtaining more information to support their hopes of procuring a pill. Sadly for them, the proprietor did not have as much information as they hoped because he was only in charge of following instructions.
Another two cities had fallen, and the majority of the injured were members of the eight great sects,pelling cultivators to distance themselves from the eight great sects and advocate the movement to select the nine mystic immortals. Liked it? Take a second to support Wu Jizun on Patreon!
