I Want to be More Prim and Proper
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 the latter would spend the night at Village Chief Bu’s place 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 ntal 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 relationship 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 soone 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 Palace 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 soone to take care of her. Everyone will have to say their goodbyes sooner or later. Until then, I want to do what I can for her and enjoy what ti 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 out last night, didn’t I?”
“I share your body! I wasn’t even given a heads up before you decided to oppress !”
Mu Yu gently ran his hand along the gap in the rock, brushing the plant that had grown despite the harsh weather. “Haha, I guess that’s the difference between you and I,” Mu Yu stated, thinking, I know I only have feelings toward Qiao Xue because of you and Xuan Ming. Otherwise, I only like Tian Ran.
Upon returning to Formation Palace, Village Chief Bu, who was eating a clay oven roll he prepared himself for breakfast, waved Mu Yu over. “Xiaoshuai told about last night. Youth sure is pri ti, 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 (clay 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 ca in, embellishing her green dress with her radiant smile.
“Of course. Of course.” Village Chief Bu went to fetch a plate from the kitchen.
Tian Ran doused her chopsticks in golden spiritual energy to slice the clay oven bread into small pieces. Mu Yu watched on the entire ti 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 prim lady 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 Clan, so of course she’d be worried her image,” pointed out Village Chief Bu.
“Grandpa, you are also part of Mu Clan. Please do not think poorly of .” 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 Village Chief Bu.
Tian Ran pinched her chin. “Mu Yu, you won’t leave , 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.”
“About last night…”
“We shared a beautiful dream.”
Xiaoshuai declared, “I’m sharing a bed with Sister Tian Ran tonight. You can sleep on the ground, Mu Yu.”
“Get out of here.”

“Everywhere is Ho 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 elental demons – under the condition that the ultimate immortals showed up at Ultimate Immortals Monunt 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 mbers of the eight great sects, compelling cultivators to distance themselves from the eight great sects and advocate the movent to select the nine mystic immortals.
