Being Weak From Getting Stronger

Mu Yue thought about it and agreed. She just has some concerns, "Will there be a problem if it's like that?"

"None as long as no one knows you possess both identities. You will also need to have a different look. You cannot have white hair when you are in your human identity. This is needed so the chance of someone finding out about the identities will be lowered. Your 'real' appearance will be used with your princess identity since it will be your true identity. You can decide what disguise you will use for your human identity."

"There are already a lot of people that have seen me. Also, my adoptive father made me an identity in the kingdom where I came from but I could ask him if it can be erased."

"It is actually fine if someone found out that you are a princess of the blood race. However, you will have limited freedom if that happens. It is up to you if you wish for that to happen or not. You will become a valuable target for our enemies."

Mu Yue then asked if she could go back. Her mother hesitated but still allowed her. Mu Yue just needs to stay for a while to train under her. To learn how to wield their power as well as to at least learn to be a princess.

"We have already talked for a while and it's now late. I will answer your questions tomorrow. I haven't prepared a proper room for you hence you might need to have to stay in a guest room or here in my room." It was actually fine if they spend the whole night chatting but Ruan Xin would like her daughter to sleep instead.

"Then I will sleep here." Mu Yue replied as she thinks this might help improve their familial relationship.

There was only one bed in the room but it was large enough for them. Ruan Xin saw her daughter hugging a pillow. Seeing this, she tried to hug Mu Yue.

Mu Yue did not have any problem with this. She often listens to Xiao Yan telling her life with her family. Same as Xiao Yan's hug, her mother's embrace give warmth.

Ruan Xin frowned when she hugged Mu Yue. Her daughter's temperature was too low. "Are you sick or poisoned?"

Now that she was lying on the bed, Mu Yue was starting to doze off due to tiredness and weakness. "No, it's because of my cultivation..."

Ruan Xin wanted to ask more questions but found out that her daughter was already asleep. She spent the entire night awake observing her daughter's condition in case something bad happens. Her daughter's temperature was still slowly decreasing as the hours go by.

Morning arrived, Mu Yue woke up. It should've been a good night's sleep but her body feels heavy instead of refreshed. She also weirdly feels cold. Her mother was also not by her side. Perhaps her mother was doing some things as a queen.

"*Cough* Cold... Ah, I reached the 7th step when I finished the trial. Two minor breakthroughs... I guess feeling like this should be normal."

She heard her mother's voice as well as Hong Meili's. The door of the room opened and she saw the two entering and going near her.

"Good morning, mother. To you too, Miss Hong Meili."

"Ah good morning... although it looks like it isn't that good for you little princess." Hong Meili replied.

"Maybe, but I will be fine soon. I think my current situation might get a bit more worse since the last was worse than this, I just need to endure it."

Ruan Xin then took some herbs, "Eat these."

"What are these?"

"Some herbs that have some slight fire affinity. Consuming them will increase someone's body temperature. I already asked a doctor here about your condition. He said that these might help."

Mu Yue smiled, "Thank you but I have to decline. I already endured the past ones without the help of such herbs. I'm afraid it might have some other effects such as weakening me. Besides, if I can't even endure this coldness, why should I continue using my ice?"

"Alright, tell me if you need anything. I will stay with you."

Hong Meili intervened, "You can't do that at least not right now, Xin Xin. You are a Queen, and there are some urgent reports that arrived that you need to check. I can stay here instead."

"Then I will leave her to your care. I will try to finish those reports early and go back here as fast as I can."
