So, They Were the Protagonists All Along

"Do you really know about Senior Qingdi?"

The Saint of Yaochi asked again, her beautiful eyes staring straight at Mu Zhian, and a light suddenly appeared in her eyes that were always calm.

Zhou Hao saw this scene, and his brows frowned inadvertently. Although he didn't know what the two said, from the reaction of the Saint of Yaochi, Mu Zhian obviously said something that made the Saint of Yaochi excited.

It seems that Mu Zhian is not as useless as his brother said... Zhou Hao's eyes flickered slightly, with a bit of thought in his eyes.

If Linglong chose Mu Zhian by chance, then the design to drive away his brother and the servants of the clan, and even the conditions that made the Saint of Yaochi excited at this moment... This is obviously not something that a playboy can do.

Under the gaze of the Saint of Yaochi, Mu Zhian replied in a voice transmission: "In fact, I originally planned to go to the Holy Land of Yaochi."

The Saint of Yaochi showed a trace of doubt in her eyes.

Could it be that there is something he needs in Yaochi?

She thought about it, but she had already made a decision in her heart. She turned her head slightly to look at Zhou Hao who was not far away from her, and said with some apology: "Brother Zhou, I'm really sorry, I have already made an appointment with Master Mu for this Nirvana Silk."

Although she rejected Zhou Hao, the pleasant voice seemed to reveal an indescribable magic, which made it difficult for people to feel disgusted.

This is one of the abilities of the physique of a natural Taoist fetus. Every Yaochi Saint has a physique that can make people feel good.

Zhou Hao stared at Mu Zhian and said slowly: "Master Mu, you may have some ability to make Fairy Yao Yue change her mind so quickly. However, if you want to be with the young lady with just this ability, you are far from qualified."

Mu Zhian was stunned and asked back: "Then you are qualified?"

Zhou Hao said coldly: "The young lady will inherit the position of the forbidden area in the future. No one is qualified."

"You mean... don't let your young lady fall in love?" Mu Zhian was shocked.

"When someone is good enough in the future and is really worthy of the young lady, we will naturally not stop it." Zhou Hao snorted.

"Does that person include you?"

"If I am good enough, that's natural." Zhou Hao said lightly.

I understand. What Zhou Hao meant is that if I can't get it, others can't get it either... Mu Zhian understood it in his heart and probably knew what this person's mentality was.

It's like a person who has a crush on a goddess, but because of his inferiority complex, he has never dared to confess, saying that he will pursue the other person after he becomes better in the future.

However, before that, the goddess in their eyes may have been chased away by someone.

As for whether he is worthy of Ye Lingxuan... Mu Zhian is not the kind of person who will feel inferior because the other party's family background or even talent is better than his own.

On the contrary, he will only be more relieved.

The stronger Ye Lingxuan is, the easier it will be for him in the future.

If you don't catch the person you like first, you will regret it sooner or later.

Moreover, with Ye Lingxuan's almost flawless character, if he didn't pursue her when she was a girl, would he wait until she became a great white shark before pursuing her?

If he really waited until then, he might not have any chance to pursue her.

The girl has already shown her coldness that keeps people away from her. In another year or two, it will be even more impossible to get into her heart.

"Brother Zhou's awareness is something I admire very much. You should work hard to improve. Fairy Yao Yue and I have other things to talk about, so I'll leave first." Mu Zhian clasped his fists and sincerely wished Zhou Hao well.

Zhou Hao stared at Mu Zhian's back, but this time, he didn't speak again.

It can be seen from this that even if Mu Zhian said more, he might not listen.

However, if Mu Zhian really followed the lady to the restricted area this time... At that time, he would probably know how big the gap between him and the lady was.

Once he inherited the inheritance, Ye Lingxuan's talent and strength in the future would be more than one level higher. Such a dazzling light would be enough to make everyone who saw her feel ashamed.

Ignorance is bliss. The young master of the Mu family just hasn't realized the young lady's true talent yet... If he goes to the restricted area and truly knows the young lady's majesty, Mu Zhian will know the gap between the two.

...

The Saint of Yao Chi and Mu Zhian strolled by the lake. She suddenly asked, "Do you have a good relationship with Miss Lingxuan?"

Mu Zhian nodded slightly and said, "Lingxuan is one of my most beloved sisters. I have always treated her as my sister."

"The power of the restricted area is much larger than you think, so please be careful." The Saint of Yao Chi kindly reminded.

Mu Zhian nodded gently: "Thank you for your concern, fairy."

The Saint of Yao Chi inadvertently changed the topic and asked, "Speaking of which, the news about Senior Qingdi that Mr. Mu just said..."

"I do know the news about Senior Qingdi, and I also know where she is now." Mu Zhian chose to tell her by voice transmission this time.

The Saint of Yao Chi slowly stopped and turned her head to stare at Mu Zhian.

Before she could speak, Mu Zhian continued, "But I can't take you to see her now."

The Saint of Yao Chi was puzzled and asked, "Why?"

"Senior Qingdi has some health problems, and it is not convenient for him to see people now." Mu Zhian told the truth.

Qingdi is now sleeping in his body. Unless it is absolutely necessary, Mu Zhian will naturally not wake her up.

The beautiful brows of the Yaochi Saintess frowned inadvertently.

Although the other party seemed to have a good relationship with Lan Mulian, based on just a few words from Mu Zhian... it was naturally impossible for her to believe the other party.

At this time, Mu Zhian continued: "Although I can't take you to see her, I can make you aware of her existence."

You won’t let me see Senior Qing Emperor, but you can make me aware of Senior Qing Emperor’s existence...?

There was a trace of doubt in the eyes of the Yaochi Saint, as if she could not understand what Mu Zhian said.

Under the gaze of the Yaochi Saint, Mu Zhian smiled and said: "Anyway, I will take you to a place first, and you will know it soon."

…

Under the leadership of Mu Zhian, they unknowingly arrived at a quiet and elegant garden.

The owner of the Villa seemed to have been aware of the arrival of the two men. The girl inside unlocked the formation, and then, a pretty face that looked pure and charming appeared in the field of vision.

Ye Qian raised his head, looked at Mu Zhian with surprise and happiness, and shouted softly: "Brother Mu, why are you here?"

Then, his eyes quickly fell on the cold-looking fairy next to Mu Zhian. Seeing her smile lightly at him, Ye Qian also smiled back.

Then, a pair of green eyes looked deeply at the Yaochi Saint, and then said with a smile: "Anyway, come in first."

After finishing speaking, he led the two of them to the front of the courtyard.

Isn't Lingxuan in front of the courtyard... Mu Zhian glanced at the courtyard, but did not see Ye Lingxuan's figure.

"Sister just went to take a medicinal bath." Ye Qian noticed Mu Zhian's gaze and said immediately.

As an inner disciple of Daofeng, Ye Lingxuan's Qi-Napping Pills can be said to be endless. In addition, Mu Zhian also gave a lot, so Ye Lingxuan basically used Qi-Napping Pills every day to speed up his cultivation.

"What does Brother Mu have to do with sister?" Ye Qian asked next.

"I'm not looking for Lingxuan, I'm looking for you." Mu Zhian said.

Under Ye Qian's confused gaze, Mu Zhian said: "The fairy next to me is the saint of the Yaochi Holy Land."

"Yaochi Holy Land..." Ye Qian repeated it, and it seemed that it sounded very familiar.

Then, she immediately remembered something important and raised her head and said, "If I remember correctly, Senior Qingdi seems to be a saint from the Yaochi Holy Land...?"

Mu Zhian nodded slightly, then looked at the Yaochi Saint and said, "Qian'er is the inheritor designated by Senior Qing Emperor."

The Saint of Yaochi stared at Ye Qian calmly with her ancient eyes, and nodded gently: "I can feel the original breath from her."

"But where is Senior Qingdi?" She was still a little confused.

"Senior Qing Emperor, you are in my cauldron." Mu Zhian told the truth.

The Saint of Yaochi immediately shook her head: "Impossible. If Senior Qing Emperor was in your body, I should have been able to detect the original aura in your cauldron immediately."

She had used that special jade slip when she entered the Liangyi Sect. If the Qing Emperor was really in Mu Zhian's body, she shouldn't have been unaware of it.

"Can the fairy detect another cauldron?" Mu Zhian asked.

The Saint of Yaochi was stunned for a moment and whispered to herself: "Another cauldron...?"

How could a monk have two cauldrons?

She originally wanted to ask like this, but the next moment, the Saint of Yaochi seemed to have remembered something important and quietly raised her head: "Are you a natural furnace?!"

When she said this, she hesitated and said, "I'm sorry, can you let me use my spiritual sense to test it?"

It's not that she doesn't believe in Mu Zhian, it's just that she has heard about the physique of a natural furnace cauldron since ancient times, but has never seen it before, and there are few records of it even in ancient books.

Seeing Mu Zhian nod slightly, the Yaochi Saint stretched out her slender hands from the fluttering cuffs of her wide sleeves and grabbed Mu Zhian's palm.

Ye Qian's eyes moved slightly as he stared at this scene, his beautiful eyebrows inadvertently frowning.

But the girl still knew the basics of people, so she didn't say anything.

The spiritual consciousness of the Saint of Yaochi slowly swept over Mu Zhian's body, and it was only after she really noticed his two cauldrons that she took out the jade slip in her hand.

Almost at that moment, the jade slip in her hand lit up with a faint light.

The eyes of the Yaochi Saintess lit up with a hint of joy.

Senior Qingdi is indeed in his body!

She suppressed the joy in her eyes, but she still couldn't hide the excitement in her heart.

He didn't expect that Senior Qingdi would appear in front of him in this way.

When she thought of this, she was about to take back her bare hands.

At this time, when the spiritual consciousness swept across another cauldron, she seemed to vaguely see a wisp of purple spiritual energy mixed in the cauldron, turning the originally completely invisible spiritual energy into a deep purple.

How could the spiritual energy in this other cauldron be different from the normal spiritual energy?

A trace of doubt flashed across the eyes of the Yaochi Saint.

Generally speaking, the spiritual energy in the monk's cauldron is void, but the spiritual energy in Mu Zhian's other cauldron is obviously different from the normal spiritual energy.

It stands to reason that even the spiritual energy in the natural furnace should be void rather than purple——

As soon as this thought flashed through the mind of the Saint of Yaochi, she suddenly felt an "incomparably sweet" aura permeating her spiritual consciousness.

This aura made her originally clear eyes a little more misty, and there was an urge that made people want to completely absorb the purple aura.

She could feel that this purple spiritual energy would be of great help to her cultivation.

"Fairy Yao Yue?"

At this moment, Mu Zhian's gentle call suddenly came to her ears, which also awakened the Saint of Yao Chi from her previous daze, and she withdrew her hand as if she had been electrocuted.

Mu Zhian looked at her with concern and said, "What's wrong with the fairy?"

The Saint of Yao Chi barely calmed down, shook her head and smiled lightly: "Nothing... I was just thinking about something."

When she said this, she couldn't help but look at Mu Zhian deeply.

This Mu Zhian's natural furnace... is a bit too weird.

"I didn't expect that Mr. Mu was actually a natural furnace, which is really surprising."

The Saint of Yao Chi's eyes were full of sincere admiration: "No wonder Senior Qingdi chose to live in your body temporarily."

Just now, she could clearly feel how wonderful the spiritual energy in Mu Zhian's natural furnace was, and even she almost got lost in it.

Senior Qingdi was obviously seriously injured, but he was well nurtured in Mu Zhian's natural furnace.

"This is not a long-term solution after all." Mu Zhian shook his head and sighed, "Senior Qingdi was seriously injured, so I have been trying to find a way to reshape her body, but I am missing some important materials."

"Senior Qingdi is the saint of Yaochi Holy Land. If there is anything that Yaochi Holy Land can do, we will do our best." Yaochi Saint said immediately.

Mu Zhian nodded and said, "If I have to say it, I do need some help from Yaochi Holy Land."

"The Tiandan Phoenix Fruit of Yaochi Holy Land is one of the keys to help Senior Qingdi reshape his body."

"After I go back this time, I will mention this to the elders and let them prepare in advance." Yaochi Saint replied immediately.

"In addition, what else do you need?"

"Reincarnation Water." Mu Zhian said.

Yaochi Saint pursed her lips and hesitated a little.

If there was no Green Emperor, they might be able to get the reincarnation water by opening the forbidden area.

But if it was about letting Green Emperor reshape his body... the forbidden area might think about it again.

After all, a female emperor in the Hedao realm appeared in Dongzhou... that would completely change the current situation in Dongzhou and even Jiuzhou.

"I will find a way to solve the reincarnation water." Mu Zhian smiled, "Fairy, just prepare the Tiandan Phoenix Fruit. After I go to the forbidden area, I will visit the Yaochi Holy Land."

Under normal circumstances, if an ordinary cultivator said this, the Yaochi Holy Maiden would only question it.

But the relationship between him and Ye Lingxuan, and even the natural furnace tripod in his body just now, made people have to believe the truth of what Mu Zhian said.

The Saint of Yao Chi smiled brightly from the bottom of her heart: "No matter what the result is, we will remember the help that Master Mu gave to Yao Chi this time."

Mu Zhian shook his head modestly and said: "Fairy, you are too polite. Senior Qingdi has helped me a lot, and since you are my friend, you are also half of my sister. This is what I should do."

The Saint of Yao Chi gave Mu Zhian a moving smile, and then she took out a small wooden box with exquisite workmanship and said: "I didn't bring much Nirvana silk when I left Yao Chi this time. If these are not enough, you can come to Yao Chi to find me in the future."

Seeing that Mu Zhian was about to take out the spirit stone, the Saint of Yao Chi took the lead and said: "Forget the spirit stone. Since you called me a sister, then take this as a small gift for my brother."

"Thank you, sister." Mu Zhian looked sincere.

Yao Chi Saint Maiden did not realize that Mu Zhian had changed the way he addressed her. After chatting with Mu Zhian for a few words in the other courtyard, she chatted with Ye Qian for a while, talking about some details of cultivation that might be encountered in the inheritance of the Green Emperor, and then said goodbye to the two and left.

After all, she had received news about the Green Emperor, so she naturally wanted to go back and report the matter to the elders in Yao Chi as soon as possible.

It was dim outside at night. After watching the Yao Chi Saint Maiden leave, Mu Zhian and Ye Qian sat in the courtyard for a while, and then saw Ye Lingxuan walking towards the front of the courtyard.

Because she had just taken a hot bath, Ye Lingxuan's delicate little face was flushed, which was very cute.

"Sister." Ye Qian took the initiative to call out.

Ye Lingxuan looked over and a faint smile appeared on her face.

Then, her eyes fell on Mu Zhian, and she smiled lightly: "Brother Mu, why are you here so late?"

"I thought you should be immersed in the gentleness of Sister Ruoxi at this time."

Mu Zhian smiled but said nothing.

Sister Lingxuan's ability to insult people is getting stronger and stronger.

I have to find an opportunity to teach her a little lesson... Mu Zhian smiled helplessly: "Lingxuan, your misunderstanding of me seems to be a bit deep."

Unexpectedly, Ye Lingxuan said with a "huh" and smiled slightly: "Is it really a misunderstanding?"

As she said that, she had come to the front of the courtyard and sat down.

She sat quietly, and her pretty face was set off by a rather loose and casual white lingerie, which instead revealed a sense of innocence.

At this time, Ye Qian suddenly asked: "Is the medicinal bath over, sister?"

Ye Lingxuan smiled and said: "Qian'er can go now if she wants to take a medicinal bath."

Ye Qian nodded, then glanced at Mu Zhian again, whispered "I'll go first", and got up and left the courtyard.

At this time, Mu Zhian immediately took the opportunity to grab one of Ye Lingxuan's soft jade hands.

"Qian'er just left, aren't you afraid of being discovered?" Ye Lingxuan glared at Mu Zhian and tried to break free.

"It's so late, we won't be discovered." Mu Zhian comforted softly, and instead grabbed Ye Lingxuan's hand more enthusiastically.

Ye Lingxuan glanced at Mu Zhian helplessly, and the amplitude of her struggle gradually became smaller. Finally, she lowered her head shyly, which was regarded as tacitly agreeing to his action.

The two sat quietly in front of the courtyard, feeling the ambiguity that permeated the courtyard.

Mu Zhian tilted his head slightly and looked at the shy posture of the girl at this moment.

Ye Lingxuan was wearing a white inner garment, the fabric was close to her snow-like skin, her eyebrows and eyes were like paintings, and the water drops on her forehead slid down her cheeks and onto her collarbone. Although she didn't put on makeup, the little beauty was still the little beauty, but compared with the classical and elegant in the past, Ye Lingxuan at this moment had a more lazy temperament.

Think about it carefully, if you want to give Sister Lingxuan a little education...

It seems to be quite suitable tonight, isn't it?
