Bai Rouyun was more shocked by the discovery than she had initially thought. She was in no mood to stay at the training ground to practice the Windhowl Slash. Instead, she left the campus and went back home to the mansion that she had bought and where Little Chu lived.
Seeing Bai Rouyun return that early, Little Chu frowned, but he said nothing. She was the master while he was the servant. He had no right to question her decisions.
Bai Rouyun was a little confused, and felt a bit lost. She had always thought that the previous owner of the body was just an unfortunate soul, but upon knowing that this soul actually was part of her, she suddenly had a strange urge to know what she had experienced throughout her life.
"Little Chu," she suddenly called out, after having seated in silence for a few moments, and Little Chu straightened his back as he looked at her slightly perplexed. "What is it, madam?" he asked politely, and Bai Rouyun glanced at her hands. Was she only complete now?
"Tell me about the previous Bai Rouyun's life."
Little Chu was curious about why Bai Rouyun would ask this so suddenly, but he did not hesitate to answer. Before being sent to Bai Rouyun's side, he had been informed about all her secrets, but he had also sworn a heavenly oath never to betray her, so he was not surprised by her choice of words.
"Miss Bai has always been pitiful. Her mother appeared in the Richu Empire one day out of nowhere. She was known to be the most attractive woman that had ever been seen, but no one knew where she came from or what her purpose was.
"She got married to General Bai as a concubine almost as soon as she had arrived in the Imperial Capital, and eight months later, Miss Bai was born.
"No one saw Miss Bai's mother after she became a concubine, she stayed in the General Manor and nurtured her belly. She was nurturing the baby in her womb, but it was not enough to preserve her life; she died moments after giving birth to Miss Bai.
"Miss Bai's mother's name has always been a mystery, General Bai never mentioned it, and after her death, she was quickly forgotten again.
"The General's estate, and General Bai himself, never put any value on Miss Bai, they treated her as a servant, and when she was five years old, she had a terrible fever. It was pure luck that she survived. However, her mind had been damaged. Since then, she became an embarrassment to the General's estate, and they treated her even worse than before.
"Even the servants bullied her, and while she was of their own blood, she was never treated well."
Bai Rouyun listened to Little Chu's words, and her eyes were full of disbelief. Eight months? Was a woman not pregnant for almost nine months before giving birth?
There were two likely possibilities: she was a premature baby, but the more likely option was that she was not actually the Bai family's descendant. That would also explain why they had treated her the way they had.
When this thought hit her, the woman who had been an orphan in her past life, and disliked by her family in this life felt a strange sense of hope well up in her heart. Could she perhaps also have a family out there somewhere, waiting for her to return?
She tried to listen to every word that Little Chu told her, but she could not focus on the sentences; all she could think of were the two guesses she had made today.
That not only did her soul finally become complete, but the family she thought was her real family was likely not.
Bai Rouyun felt complicated. If she was not the child of the Bai family, then why had her mother been forced to become the concubine of General Bai and give birth to her under his name?
She thought so much that her head began hurting, and in the end, Xiao Bao could not take her painful expression any longer.
"Mother, don't worry. Although you have no answers now, everything will slowly unravel itself for you as you grow stronger. Think about it, when you are much stronger than the Bai family, you can interrogate General Bai and ask him everything he knows, so let us make that your current goal."
Bai Rouyun finally felt clarity after listening to Xiao Bao's words, and she sighed deeply. She had been too panicked and needed to relax.
While Bai Rouyun went to her room to rest, Little Chu frowned. He had also seen that her head had hurt and that she seemed to put an extreme amount of importance on the original body's owner. Had something happened?
He dared not make a decision on his own and decided to contact Li Moyun. Although he could not use the message sand right now, he was able to send messages with the shadow bird. It took longer, but was just as secure; no one apart from the recipient could open the message.
Upon sending the message, Little Chu felt great relief, but he could not help but glance at the bedroom door, wondering if he had failed as a guard. He could not understand Bai Rouyun's thought process, but maybe geniuses thought differently from the rest of the people?
Bai Rouyun was unaware of the worries that Little Chu had. She went to bed, and instead of cultivating, she decided it was time to sleep.
Cultivators rarely slept, but sleeping was the best cure to nurse one's soul and mind. As such, she truly needed to calm down, and thus she decided to rest.
