So, They Were the Protagonists All Along

If Ye Lingxuan hadn't said that the person she saw at the beginning was not the Sect Master, Mu Zhian would have even thought that his life had been clearly arranged by the Sect Master.

When Ye Lingxuan said that she was reincarnated because someone reminded her, the first person that came to Mu Zhian's mind was still the Sect Master.

But now...

He heard a different answer.

Suddenly he felt really sorry for the Sect Master. Now no matter what happened, he immediately felt that it was the Sect Master who did it...

Although it has always been the case.

"In fact, the day I first inherited the restricted area rules, I always thought it was the Sect Master who did it."

Ye Lingxuan slowly released her arms around Mu Zhian and walked into the bedroom with small steps very naturally.

Then she took out a scroll from the ring.

On the scroll, a woman's face was slowly appearing.

This scroll is obviously also some kind of secret treasure, which can clearly present someone in the owner's mind in this way in the scroll.

However, before Mu Zhian could see the woman's appearance clearly, he was surprised to find that the woman who was almost perfectly presented in the painting disappeared in an instant.

The entire painting became blank again.

"Surprised?"

Ye Lingxuan smiled and said faintly: "In Jiuzhou, everything related to this woman is blocked, so no matter what, I can't see her appearance clearly, even if I use this secret treasure, I can't show her true appearance."

So even if Sister Lingxuan knows what she looks like in her mind, I can't see what she looks like...?

While Mu Zhian was still thinking, Ye Lingxuan spoke again: "But there is not no way."

She deliberately kept it a secret, and under Mu Zhian's gaze, she continued: "I still have a way to let Brother Mu see what the woman in my mind looks like."

"But I have a condition."

"I promise you." Mu Zhian said immediately.

Ye Lingxuan was stunned for a moment, then silently glanced at the boy and said, "Brother Mu, aren't you afraid that I will make some particularly excessive demands afterwards?"

"Can you still eat me?" Mu Zhian couldn't help but laugh. He has always been very confident in this elegant and pure girl.

"How could that be? No matter what, I can't do such an excessive thing to Brother Mu."

Ye Lingxuan blinked her beautiful eyes and said with a smile: "But sometimes I will want to do a little punishment... After all, when I see Brother Mu being intimate with other women, I will be more or less jealous."

After that, she raised her hand and summoned the Chain of Desolate Time from her sleeve.

"Brother Mu, close your eyes, I'll take you to a place."

Although he didn't know what Ye Lingxuan wanted to do, Mu Zhian still closed his eyes.

When his vision was dark, he vaguely felt that the Chain of Desolate Time was silently wrapped around him, and then he pulled it lightly.

The whole person felt as if the world was spinning around him. When Mu Zhian suddenly opened his eyes, the room he saw was no longer the one he had been in before, but a study room filled with the fragrance of tea and ink.

Through the elegant and clear window, he could see the stars hanging over the plain, and a candlelight was emitting a soft light.

"This is where I have been dealing with trivial matters in the restricted area during this period."

Ye Lingxuan sat on a chair by the window sill, and then glanced at the reincarnated queen who was handling some affairs on her behalf, and thanked her sincerely: "Thank you for your hard work."

The reincarnated queen shook her head gently: "We are one, and the lady's affairs are naturally my affairs, so it doesn't matter whether it's hard or not."

After that, she glanced at Mu Zhian: "But the lady said there was a way to trick him into the restricted area... I didn't expect it to be done."

"Cheat?"

Mu Zhian looked suspiciously at the purple-dressed girl who was sitting in a dignified posture.

Ye Lingxuan's quiet and elegant face turned slightly red under the candlelight. She twisted her body uncomfortably, coughed lightly, and said seriously: "It's not a lie, but it really needs to be in the restricted area for Brother Mu to see the appearance of that woman."

The Reincarnation Queen said "Oh" and said nothing.

Soon after Mu Zhian left the restricted area, Ye Lingxuan began to manage the affairs of the restricted area with the assistance of several elders in the restricted area, but there was a period of time when it seemed that she saw Mu Zhian's various experiences outside through the Lock of Desolate Time or something. During those few nights, the lady took a bath almost every day.

Of course, it was not just a bath, but a bath while watching Mu Zhian's situation.

And often after that, the Reincarnation Queen could clearly feel that the lady's spiritual energy had lost a little.

It can only be said that even the emotionless Reincarnation Queen knew what this respected lady was doing.

"In short, you should go back and rest today, and leave the next thing to me." Ye Lingxuan suddenly said.

A puppet won't feel tired, let alone a person in the Hedao realm... The Reincarnation Queen silently glanced at the young lady and stayed on her cherry lips for a moment.

The rouge that was originally quite red and attractive had obviously been bitten by someone.

"Then I'll leave it to the young lady next."

After saying this, she glanced at Mu Zhian again, and a meaningful look appeared on the face of the Reincarnation Queen. She stood up and turned into an illusory figure, disappearing in the study.

The atmosphere returned to silence.

The troublesome guy was finally sent away. Ye Lingxuan regained her strength again with a faint smile on her face: "Brother Mu, don't listen to her nonsense. I didn't intend to trick you into coming to the restricted area."

"Well, I know... but how can it sound so strange to trick someone older than you?" Mu Zhian couldn't help but complain.

Ye Lingxuan smiled, then took out the previous scroll from the ring and gently threw it out.

The scroll emitted a soft white light and slowly floated up into the air.

The scroll unfolded, and a woman's figure gradually emerged on the blank paper.

At first it was a little blurry, and it even seemed that her appearance was about to be erased by some force.

However, this time the woman's appearance could not be eliminated no matter what.

"Rules of the restricted area?"

Mu Zhian's eyes moved slightly, as if he understood something.

He understood why Ye Lingxuan brought him to the restricted area.

The restricted area today can be said to be completely different from Kyushu, and it can be said to be a real paradise.

Because the rules here have completely escaped the control of the way of heaven.

Therefore, even if the outside world blocks the secrets of heaven, the restricted area will not be affected.

So, if I bring the sister of the sect master to the restricted area, can I see what she looks like... Mu Zhian suddenly thought.

He still can't remember what Shang Yanfei looks like until now, but his impression tells him that the woman is very beautiful and her figure is almost perfect... But what she looks like, Mu Zhian still can't remember.

"The appearance of that woman is now completely reflected in this scroll."

At this moment, Ye Lingxuan suddenly spoke, and also pulled Mu Zhian back to reality from his previous thoughts.

He looked closely and couldn't help but be stunned.

The woman in the scroll had indeed never been seen before.

But for some reason, Mu Zhian had a sense of déjà vu.

It seemed that Nuo had seen her somewhere before.

Ye Lingxuan looked at him quietly on the side, picked up a piece of rouge from the table, and took a bite gently, making her cherry lips stained with an attractive red luster again.

Mu Zhian stared at the woman in the scroll for a long time, and suddenly said: "Sister Lingxuan, you should have seen the sect master before, right?"

Ye Lingxuan nodded gently: "I have seen the sect master... but I don't remember what the sect master looks like."

"Brother Mu thinks that there may be a deviation in my memory. Now the woman in the scroll is actually the sect master?"

She shook her head gently and continued: "Impossible, although I don't remember what the sect master looks like, I still vaguely remember her eyes and temperament... It's different from the woman in the scroll."

Blocking the secrets of heaven does not mean that you will completely forget this person. At least sometimes you will still have a sense of déjà vu.

In Ye Lingxuan's memory, the temperament of the sect master is different from this woman.

Mu Zhian stared at the woman in the scroll and fell into deep thought.

The woman in the scroll had long hair like a waterfall, and a pair of plump, snow-white long legs were revealed under the black skirt. The black leg ring on the left leg left a thin mark, and the dazzling white skin had an ice-like texture.

There was no doubt that he had never seen this woman before.

But where did this sense of déjà vu come from?

Did he have contact with her in a certain life that was restarted in the past?

Mu Zhian frowned and pondered, and then he seemed to notice something, and his eyes suddenly fell on a ring on the woman's right hand.

It was a ring that looked quite simple. Although separated by the scroll, Mu Zhian still felt inexplicably familiar.

He lowered his head and took a look at the ring on his hand.

The ring left by the first generation of demon kings, the "key" to the heaven.

This woman is related to the heaven!

The ring worn by the woman in the scroll is the heavenly ring he is wearing now.

Is this woman also one of the monks who ascended to the heaven?

But why did this ring fall into the hands of the first generation demon king?

Or... did she deliberately let the later first generation demon king get this ring?

After all, Ye Lingxuan said before that the reason why she was reincarnated was because this woman gave her a "hint" and asked her to wait for Mu Zhian's future appearance.

When Mu Zhian thought of this, his thoughts suddenly stopped.

"I remember Yao Meng told me before that the body of the sect master was incomplete, and her consciousness was sometimes clear and sometimes chaotic... Does that mean that the body in Liangyi Sect now is not her real body?" Mu Zhian suddenly whispered to himself.

Ye Lingxuan was stunned, looking at Mu Zhian's handsome profile, and said: "Brother Mu suspects... that the woman in the scroll may be the true body of the sect master?"

Mu Zhian didn't say anything.

He didn't dare to be sure of this bold guess now.

There are too many mysteries about Shang Yanfei. A powerful person in the Hedao realm can live for tens of thousands of years without dying. He has repeatedly suppressed the nine forbidden places and even combined the rules of the major forbidden places to become the Liangyi Sect's own rules.

In addition, it is suspected that he can deduce the secrets of heaven and predict the future...

You told me that this is just the Hedao realm?

Mu Zhian couldn't believe it.

If the sect master was the Yuhua Renhuang, Mu Zhian would reluctantly believe it.

If he asked the sect master directly, she would definitely not answer... So he could only start from other places.

"What we are doing here should not be spied on by anyone, right?" Mu Zhian suddenly asked.

He already had a psychological shadow on the ‘live broadcast’.

Ye Lingxuan hummed lightly and smiled: “Of course, the rules of the restricted area are controlled by me. As long as I don’t change the rules, even if the Heavenly Dao descends, it will not be able to spy on what we are doing.”

“Brother Mu wants to find out the identity of this woman?” Ye Lingxuan asked.

Mu Zhian nodded gently.

Ye Lingxuan will be reincarnated for the ninth time because of the suggestion given to her by the woman in the scroll.

This means that this woman knows what will happen in the future, so she asked Ye Lingxuan to wait for his ‘birth’.

In other words, as long as he finds the woman in the scroll, he will be very close to the truth.

But where is this woman now...?

Mu Zhian thought.

Since the woman in the scroll was wearing the ring of the Heavenly Court at that time, her true body may not be in Jiuzhou.

Maybe... in the Heavenly Court?

After thinking for a while, Mu Zhian quickly shook his head and temporarily dispelled the messy thoughts in his mind.

"Forget about it, let's take it one step at a time."

"Compared to these things, what I need to do now is to replenish the spiritual energy of the Tiansheng furnace as soon as possible... and ask Yuanluo if she has any clues."

I have paid too much for Sister Mengrou's realm improvement in the past two days. In addition, I suppressed three Yuhua realms not long ago, and accepted Miss Tiandao's spiritual energy purification ceremony... Mu Zhian's Tiansheng furnace is no different from a dry well at this moment.

After barely gathering his thoughts, Mu Zhian turned his head to look at the purple skirt girl and asked, "Why are you applying rouge?"

"Just now, the rouge was eaten up by someone. I can't just go back like this later? It will be noticed by the ancestors and Qian'er." Ye Lingxuan said resentfully.

Mu Zhian was startled: "But if you put on rouge now, won't you have to do it again later?"

Ye Lingxuan was stunned for a moment, and finally reacted after noticing the boy's fiery gaze. She lowered her eyes slightly and whispered: "This place is not very safe... Elders often come here to consult about certain things, and my mother often comes here to see me."

"Are you worried about being discovered?" Mu Zhian asked.

"Of course."

Ye Lingxuan couldn't help but roll her eyes at him, and then looking at his expression that seemed to be more eager after hearing it, she couldn't help but pursed her lips and showed a sly smile.

She took the initiative to come to Mu Zhian, raised her moist beautiful eyes, and asked softly: "Has Brother Mu done anything bad to our ancestors?"

As soon as she opened her mouth, Mu Zhian couldn't help but be stunned.

He thought that his affair with Ye Qingxin had not been noticed by anyone, and Ye Lingxuan had never seen it, but now...

"You don't have to hide it deliberately."

Ye Lingxuan said faintly: "The ancestor thought that her affair with you was not noticed, but in fact I had already discovered it... Because every time I talked to her about Brother Mu, she deliberately avoided it."

"Actually, I don't mind... After all, in my eyes, the ancestor is like a kind elder. She treats me and the descendants of the Ye family the same way, and she always cares about me."

Mu Zhian was silent for a while: "Have you asked Sister Ye?"

"No."

"Is it because you are worried that she will not know how to face you in the future?" Mu Zhian asked.

Ye Lingxuan shook her head gently, and a faint smile appeared on her face: "Because it's interesting to see her look full of guilt for her descendants."

Mu Zhian: "..."

I didn't expect that Sister Lingxuan would be black when she was cut open.

If one day Ye Qingxin knew that this descendant of the Ye family knew everything, I wonder what his reaction would be...

At this time, Ye Lingxuan suddenly tiptoed slightly, her cherry lips slightly close to his ear, and her voice was a little charming: "Brother Mu, how about next time when we are together with Qian'er, let's call our ancestor~?"

Mu Zhian subconsciously lowered his head, looking at the pair of bright and beautiful eyes and the faint smile on her face.

"Don't you blame me?"

Ye Lingxuan shook her head gently, looking like a very considerate good girl: "How could it be, the ancestor is such a beautiful beauty, even I would be moved, let alone Brother Mu."

If it were in the past, Ye Lingxuan would probably have turned evil... But now she can talk about this topic with him. In a sense, she has indeed grown a lot.

Mu Zhian couldn't help but smile with relief.

At this time, Ye Lingxuan continued as if nothing had happened: "If I'm not mistaken, the spiritual energy of your natural furnace is almost the same as exhausted, right?"

"It should be because you have been with other women during this period of time?"

Looking at Mu Zhian's hesitation, Ye Lingxuan smiled: "Don't worry, since the natural furnace is temporarily exhausted, Lingxuan will not do anything to embarrass Brother Mu."

The girl's thoughtfulness made Mu Zhian slightly moved. Looking at this delicate face like ice and snow, he felt a little more apologetic in his heart.

At this time, Ye Lingxuan held Mu Zhian's hand as if nothing had happened. The touch of the slightly cool and soft little hand made him feel moved.

"By the way, Brother Mu knows what the taboo rules can do?"

Ye Lingxuan suddenly asked a seemingly irrelevant topic casually, with a charming smile on her face.

"It can turn decay into magic, of course...it can't create something out of nothing, but the taboo rules can do many, many things."

"For example... I will now modify the taboo rule to 'Mu Zhian will be obsessed with me and please me until he falls asleep.'"

After a slight pause, the girl whispered again: "Even this unreasonable rule can be realized immediately?"

Mu Zhian's smile gradually solidified: "Sister Lingxuan, wait--"

Before the voice fell, the taboo rule had been quietly rewritten.

Slowly, an indescribable feeling rose in Mu Zhian's heart. He felt that the girl in front of him was so sacred and charming that his eyes could not help but freeze on her.

There was a kind of willing to surrender to her feet, please her, and make her happy. The thought echoed in my mind and could not be shaken off.

"It's amazing, right? Taboo rules can do a lot of things, even to this extent."

Ye Lingxuan said casually, and then glanced at the boy beside her with a sidelong glance, with a seductive charm in her beautiful eyes.

"Now please follow the requirements of the taboo rules and please me well, Brother Mu~"
