"Is he leaving?"
In a secluded secret chamber, Fu Qinglan slowly opened her eyes.
Fu Chaosheng, who had just come in, nodded.
Fu Qinglan pursed her lips and asked quietly, "Is he going to find his Dao companion?"
Fu Chaosheng sighed. "Indeed. Before this, I only thought he was a rogue cultivator from the Northern Sea, and even the spirit-pet servants following him were all from the Northern Sea. I never expected him to come from the Eastern Wasteland. If he hadn't volunteered the truth, we would still be kept in the dark."
"The Eastern Wasteland... the Desolate Rogue..."
Fu Qinglan murmured Luo Chen's self-chosen Daoist title and could not help letting out a soft laugh.
So Luo Chen had made his origins clear from the very beginning.
And when she thought of how he had personally told Grandpa that he already had a Dao companion, Fu Qinglan could only sigh that the decision she had made earlier had been the right one.
Not to mention whether Luo Chen was willing to marry into the Fu Family, the fact that he already had wives and concubines meant she was fated never to share one husband with others.
"When is he leaving?"
Fu Chaosheng said, "He has already reported it to Seven Lamps Elder of the Star Gate and has now left Heaven Earth Peak. But before leaving the Central Province, he must first return to the Wangwu Mountain Range. He'll take his spirit-pet servants from there and also collect the abundant cultivation resources I prepared for him."
Fu Qinglan sighed after hearing this. "He still thinks everything through so carefully..."
After that, they fell into a long silence.
Fu Chaosheng said nothing more beside her. Yet whenever his eyes turned toward his granddaughter, they held a trace of unfamiliar distance.
