So, They Were the Protagonists All Along

Linglong, most of the disciples of Liangyi Sect are familiar with this name.

However, there are very few people who have actually seen Linglong.

After all, even if you have seen her, it is difficult to remember her appearance.

Just like when Mu Zhian saw the Sect Master Shang Yanfei before, although the first thought he had when he saw her was "This Sect Master is so beautiful, has a great figure, and has big breasts, I am destined to be with her", but as soon as he walked out of the back mountain, he instantly forgot what she looked like.

This is a strong man in the Hedao realm.

And Linglong is actually the same. The moment you see her, you may be able to remember Linglong's appearance, but if she wants, the person who sees her will forget what she looks like in the next moment.

Mu Zhian can remember Linglong's appearance simply because he was favored by Linglong.

As for other people... basically they are not so lucky.

The middle-aged cultivator stood in front of the courtyard, and after being dazed for an unknown period of time, he subconsciously looked at Gongsun Xiong.

He once suspected that what he saw was an illusion, so he looked up again.

The silver-haired beauty in the courtyard accepted the food from Mu Zhian while casually looking around.

Her relaxed demeanor and even her bright red eyes gave people the feeling that she was out for fun.

However, the middle-aged cultivator was almost certain that his judgment would not be wrong.

This woman was definitely a spirit dragon!

But this shouldn't be right... Let alone why the spirit dragon was with Mu Zhian, the bigger question now is...

How did Gongsun Xiong do it?

How did a cultivator who had just been promoted to the Return to Void realm, or who had been promoted to the Return to Void realm with great difficulty, take the spirit dragon into his cave?

How could such a proud existence as a spirit dragon allow itself to be locked up in a cave?

And it was a young cultivator in the Return to Void realm...?

"Daoyou, do you know that woman?"

The middle-aged cultivator was stunned for an unknown period of time, until he heard Gongsun Xiong's voice transmission in his ears, and then he suddenly came back to his senses from his previous thoughts.

He turned his head slightly to look at Gongsun Xiong, and after a brief hesitation, he transmitted a voice: "Leave this place first."

After saying that, he immediately turned around and left the courtyard.

Gongsun Xiong looked at the two people under the pavilion with some doubt in his eyes, then turned around and followed the pace of the middle-aged monk.

On the other side, Lin Ling had already retracted his gaze and looked at Mu Zhian who was slowly peeling the last lobster, and wrote on the table: Just now two people were peeping at us, and now there is another person peeping at us here.

Mu Zhian turned his head to look at Lin Ling and smiled: "It doesn't matter, they just want to see if we are used to the food, don't worry about it."

Lin Ling "Aaa" made a sound of understanding.

Then silently took the lobster handed by Mu Zhian, and didn't seem to care about what happened outside.

For Linglong, as long as there is something to eat, it's enough!

Mu Zhian inadvertently glanced at a shadow in the courtyard. Although he couldn't see the other person's appearance, he could clearly feel a breath there.

He couldn't help but secretly shook his head.

This uncle Gongsun seemed to underestimate him a little.

Send a spy at the peak of Qi Refining to monitor them... If it was an ordinary cultivator in the Refining Spirit Realm, he might not notice it, but Mu Zhian was born with a spiritual body, how could he not realize it?

He did not reveal it, but after eating snacks with Linglong in the pavilion, he returned to the room and drew the design of stockings in front of the table.

"Aaa."

In the middle of the night, he suddenly felt someone gently pulling the corner of his clothes, and then Lin Ling made a gentle and pleasant voice.

Mu Zhian turned his head and saw the silver-haired beauty who was half-crouching in front of him.

"It's so late, what is Sister Lin Ling doing?" Mu Zhian asked in confusion.

Lin Ling made an 'Aaa' sound again, and then found that Mu Zhian seemed unable to understand, so she took out a piece of paper and wrote on it: I'm hungry again.

I never saw her eat so much in Liangyi Sect...

"Uncle Gongsun is a very enthusiastic person, so just go get whatever you want, no need to be polite." Mu Zhian said with a smile.

Lin Ling's red eyes seemed to be shining with star-like luster, "Aaa" nodded, then opened her red lips and said something.

The next moment, she disappeared in the room.

Mu Zhian got up and came to the bed, took a look at the night outside the window, and stretched lazily.

Linglong is a very special existence, he can't and won't order Linglong to do anything.

In the end, Linglong doesn't have to do anything, she just sits in Gongsun's house like this, she doesn't have to do anything, many things, the enemy will help them fill in the blanks.

...

The next morning.

Gongsun's house, in the hall.

Gongsun Xiong sat in the hall with a gloomy face, looking at the servant who just hurried into the hall.

"Are you sure that nearly 30% of the pills we are going to send to the auction house in three days are missing?" Gongsun Xiong stared at the attendant and asked.

The attendant hesitated for a moment and whispered, "Yes, sir, I have asked people to count them repeatedly, and 30% are indeed missing."

"The attendant who was patrolling last night said that he seemed to see a big monster inside, and when he went in, the monster had already left. He also said... the monster looked a bit like a dragon."

Pah!

The teacup in his hand fell to the ground, and the splash of tea fell on Gongsun Xiong's face. The man's face was horribly livid.

The attendant hesitated for a moment and said, "Sir, are you still going to the Mu family today?"

Originally, Gongsun Xiong asked them to 'invite' Mr. Ren from the Mu family to Gongsun's house. However, the arrival of Mu Zhian yesterday broke this plan.

"Don't act rashly in the past few days." Gongsun Xiong said slowly.

"In addition, keep an eye on the secret whistle on Mu Zhian's side and ask him to withdraw first."

"...Yes!" Although the attendant hesitated, he saw that Gong Sunxiong's face was not very good-looking and knew what had happened, so he immediately responded.

And that night, Gongsun's family's elixirs were 30% less. Gongsun Xiong personally went to the place where the elixirs were stored. He felt heartache when he looked at the empty bottles on the ground.

The middle-aged monk standing not far behind looked at this scene and secretly shook his head.

It seems that this plan has completely failed.

It’s better to leave this place as soon as possible before the spirit dragon is discovered...

Early the next morning, Gongsun Xiong came to find Mu Zhian in person.

"Uncle, why are you here?" Mu Zhian looked at Gong Sunxiong in surprise, and then warmly invited him to sit down and drink tea.

"Uncle, please sit down quickly. If you want to come, don't say anything, so that my nephew can prepare for uncle."

This is my home, not yours... Gongsun Xiong was furious when he saw Mu Zhian's familiar look.

But he kept a gentle smile on his face and said, "Nephew Mu must know why I am looking for you."

"My nephew doesn't quite understand. I hope my uncle will make it clear." Mu Zhian calmly took a sip of tea.

"It was your uncle's fault before. As an apology, how about your uncle giving you five hundred thousand spirit stones and taking you and the seniors around you out of Gongsun's house?" Gongsun Xiong said in a deep voice.

Unexpectedly, Mu Zhian frowned slightly and said, "Uncle, this is your problem."

He took a sip of tea and sighed: "You asked us to come to Gongsun's house before. Did I still try to hinder you at that time?"

"Now you want to drive us away again... I don't care, but if the person next to me is angry..." Mu Zhian's eyes stared at Gongsun Xiong sincerely.

"What do you want?" Gongsun Xiong was no longer in the mood to remain as calm as before.

The Gongsun family's running water has dropped by at least 70% in the past two days. Most of the elixirs, food, and medicinal materials in the clan have been eaten. The food is not bad, but those elixirs and medicinal materials were originally intended to be sent to the Dawn Auction House. It is also a precious elixir that the Gongsun family has prepared for a long time.

As a result, he was eaten like beans and 60% of it was eaten!

Patriarch Gongsun, who was still very high-spirited when he was promoted to the Return to the Void Realm a few days ago, now looks a little ugly.

But he didn't dare to attack.

"I can see my uncle's sincerity, but...it takes a lot of courage on my nephew's part to persuade such a being..."

Mu Zhian was confused: "Let's do this, uncle, half a million spirit stones, plus two more cities."

Gongsun Xiong glared at Mu Zhian angrily and almost slapped him in anger.

At this time, he suddenly noticed that behind a stone pillar behind Mu Zhian, a silver-haired girl was hiding behind the pillar, half of her head sticking out. Even in the dark, her red star eyes were still bright and clear.

Secret observation.jpg.

It was like a splash of cold water was poured over his head, making Gongsun Xiong lose all his anger.

"Okay... It's up to you. Five hundred thousand spirit stones and two cities will be given to you immediately before tonight!"

"Uncle is so generous!" Mu Zhi'an gave Gongsun Xiong a thumbs up, murderous and heart-wrenching.

Then, he continued in an understatement: "Where is the person behind uncle now?"

Gongsun Xiong raised his head suddenly, stared at Mu Zhian, and said, "Do you know everything?"

"Uncle was promoted to the Return to the Void Realm for no reason. You can guess a little bit." Mu Zhian looked at Gongsun Xiong with a smile and said, "Does uncle know where he is now?"

Gongsun Xiong sent a message: "He just left not long ago."

"Leaved?" Mu Zhian was thoughtful and did not speak again, but stood up to say goodbye.

"Send the spirit stone to the Mu Mansion later, and my nephew won't disturb you."

The person behind the scenes cannot escape.

When the former demon cultivator leaves Tianxuan City, he will be greeted by Yan Ruyu and Ying Guhuan, who have been guarding outside the city for a long time.

Everything is done properly.

There is only one thing left to do.

One month later, head to the restricted area!

But before that...there is something that needs to be dealt with.

Mu Zhian took Lin Ling, who was reluctant to leave and didn't seem to want to leave, and left Gongsun's house under Gongsun Xiong's relieved eyes and headed for Mu's Mansion.

"It will be of great use to me to make this thing into what I draw in the past two days." Mu Zhian handed the Nirvana silk to the tailor of Mufu.

"Master, what is this?" the tailor asked.

"Stockings." Mu Zhian said.

Seeing that the seamstress seemed a little confused, Mu Zhian waved his hand and ordered: "Anyway, just follow the drawing above."

"I will be of great use after this!"
