So, They Were the Protagonists All Along

The next morning.

Canghai Peak.

At this time, Yi Hao was sitting in a villa, seemingly absent-minded.

He is the current leader of Canghai Peak, a fifth-level Void Returner, and is also a well-known figure outside.

Of course, even within the Liangyi Sect, Yi Hao's strength ranks high.

But unfortunately, there is a master above Yi Hao...

Although that master rarely came forward to deal with matters at Canghaifeng, Yi Hao would inevitably be somewhat restrained by this master when dealing with various matters.

For example, this was the case with the previous sect assessment at Canghai Peak.

If Mu Zhian hadn't appeared at that time, all the disciples participating in the sect's assessment would have been wiped out.

At this time, a disciple flew into the hall, clasped his fists and said, "First seat, there is a disciple outside who calls himself Mu Zhian, asking to see him."

Yi Hao, who was drinking sake, looked up instantly, with a hint of joy on his face, but he hid it well, and said: "Invite him in!"

The disciple glanced at Yi Hao doubtfully, then nodded slightly.

This was the first time he saw the leader showing such an expectant look, which was really rare.

Not long after, the disciple led Mu Zhian into the villa, and then quietly retreated.

"First seat!"

Seeing this middle-aged man coming into view, Mu Zhian clasped his fists respectfully.

"Little friend Mu, sit over here." Yi Hao gestured to the seat opposite with a smile on his face.

After he took his seat, the leader of Canghai Peak looked calm and calm. He picked up the tea cup and took a sip of tea. He smiled and said, "Why did Mu Xiaoyou come to see me this time?"

Although he seemed calm and calm, his slightly aged eyes were always looking at Mu Zhian, as if waiting for something.

What would his reaction be if I told him that the Eight Treasure Cranes were eaten by the spirit dragon... Mu Zhian smiled and took out a Na Ring, and then waved his hand. In the Na Ring, there were more than a dozen Eight Treasure Cranes. Appeared quietly aside.

The wings of each Eight Treasure Crane are quietly bound by a layer of aperture, preventing them from moving at all.

Looking at the leader with excitement on his face, Mu Zhian still maintained a respectful attitude and said: "Senior Linglong ate another Eight Treasure Crane at some point, and I was worried that she couldn't control it... so Came here early.”

Yi Hao nodded slightly, and when he raised his head again to look at Mu Zhian, there was a little more sincere gratitude in his eyes, but he still said in a calm tone: "Senior Linglong is the sacred beast of our Liangyi Sect. If she wants to eat it, , no matter how much.”

He paused and continued: "I'm really troubling you this time, little friend Mu."

"As agreed, you can take one of these Eight Treasure Cranes with you."

"If you eat it, it will also be of great benefit to your future practice."

"Thank you, senior!" Mu Zhian said, cupping his fists.

"No need to thank you, you deserve this." When Yi Hao said this, he shook his head and sighed: "I didn't expect that there would be time to ask for help from my juniors..."

When he said this, he looked at Mu Zhian again and said with a smile: "No matter what, it is thanks to Mu Xiaoyou this time. Apart from anything else, there is still some energy in Liangyi Sect. If there is If you have any questions, you can discuss it with me, which can be regarded as repaying my help this time. "

"It is the junior's honor to be able to work for the seniors." Mu Zhian said respectfully.

As for the polite words, you still have to say them.

Some kind words, even if the other party knows they are polite words, will still be very useful.

Yi Hao smiled and nodded, then secretly looked at Mu Zhian a few times, and sighed with regret in his heart.

He could naturally see that Mu Zhian's talent was still very good. If it had happened in the past, he could have been accepted as an inner disciple this time.

But this time, something is different.

This time the sect's assessment can be called a golden age, there are too many geniuses.

There is only one spot for inner disciples. If possible, it would be best to choose Bai Ruoxi or Ye Lingxuan.

Even if these two people were selected by the first two main peaks that won the last sect competition, there would also be Wei Mengrou, and even Huang Manting and others.

Although it is a bit regretful, the quota of inner disciples still needs to be carefully considered.

Boom!

Suddenly there was a loud rumbling sound in the sky. Mu Zhian subconsciously looked up and saw that there seemed to be a lot of calamity clouds vaguely gathering on the top of Canghai Peak.

Amidst the rolling thunder, branch-shaped lightning flashed across.

"...Has someone been promoted to Refining God?" Mu Zhian subconsciously asked.

"This is an elixir." Yi Hao said with a smile: "It seems that someone on Canghai Peak refined a good fourth-grade elixir today."

"No..." Yi Hao's eyes narrowed slightly and he continued: "Looking at this calamity cloud, I'm afraid it's very close to the fifth level."

Alchemy, this is my knowledge blind spot... Mu Zhian looked at Yi Hao who seemed to be thinking about something, stood up and said goodbye, leaving the garden.

When passing the top of Canghai Peak, he vaguely saw a lot of disciples gathered not far ahead. These disciples all raised their heads to look at someone on the high platform and whispered something in a low voice.

There are occasionally such alchemy competitions on the major peaks, but like today, it is quite rare to see someone refining a fifth-grade elixir, or even an elixir competition that triggers thunder tribulation.

Mu Zhian walked in quietly, and then looked up at the platform. He saw Ye Yu, who was wearing a black robe, standing proudly in front of the platform, enjoying the attention of the crowd. In his hand, there was a newly refined fifth-grade elixir, the Jade Beauty Pill!

The so-called Jade Beauty Pill, to put it bluntly, can keep one's youth for several years after taking it!

It may not mean much to men, but for women, the value of this Jade Beauty Pill is quite huge.

"Fellow Daoist Ye's alchemy skills are perfect, and I am convinced of my defeat." Not far from Ye Yu, a young cultivator clasped his fists and sighed.

Ye Yu arched his hands and smiled, "Fellow Daoist's alchemy skills are actually not bad, but he lacks some heat, and he is just one step behind."

"Mr. Ye, can you sell this Jade Beauty Pill to me? I am willing to pay 5,000 spirit stones for it." A female cultivator's voice suddenly came from the audience.

"I'm willing to pay 8,000 spirit stones."

"I'll pay 10,000..."

Ye Yu listened to the bids of the female cultivators below the stage, and noticed that people looked at him with a bit of admiration in their eyes. Although he was secretly happy in his heart, his face remained calm.

At this moment, he suddenly felt a familiar gaze. Looking in the direction of that gaze, at the back of the crowd, a young man in a luxurious robe was standing at the end of the crowd looking at him.

...Mu Zhian.

Ye Yu's face sank, staring at the young man who was stretching his waist and was about to go back, and suddenly said: "Master Mu, since you are here, do you want to compete with me in alchemy?"

As this voice fell, many cultivators in the crowd looked at Mu Zhian who was about to leave.

After that, there were more whispers in the crowd.

The people present were all new disciples who had just joined the sect. They had all heard about the conflicts between Mu Zhian and Ye Yu in Tianxuan City. However, judging from Ye Yu's undisguised hatred, it seemed that the hatred between them was quite big.

Mu Zhian was about to leave when he stopped. He turned his head to look at Ye Yu, who was standing on the high platform holding the Jade Beauty Pill, and said with a smile, "Young Master Ye's alchemy level is superior to his peers. I am ashamed of myself."

"You dare not?" Ye Yu challenged.

Then, his face was slightly clear, and he said, "I almost forgot that you are not an alchemist. Sorry, I was abrupt."

Mu Zhian smiled and nodded, and took out a jade bottle from the ring.

Ye Yu's eyes then froze on the word "Ye" on the jade screen.

The pills that Ye Lingxuan gave to Mu Zhian at that time!

"The pills that Sister Lingxuan gave are very useful." Mu Zhian said in a voice transmission.

Ye Yu's eyes suddenly became sharper, and there was a little more anger in his eyes.

It's okay that Mu Zhian used some sweet words to cheat Lingxuan of the elixir that day, but now he has the nerve to show off with it in his hand? !

How dare he be so self-righteous while eating gigolo?

Ye Yu opened his mouth slightly and was about to speak.

At this time, under the cliff of Canghai Peak, a golden light column shot up into the sky, and a strong smell of medicine filled the entire peak of Canghai Peak.

Mu Zhian subconsciously turned his head and looked towards the depths of the cliff in the direction of the light column. He seemed to see a girl in a light purple dress standing in the light.

And the strong smell of medicine just now came from her.

Ye Lingxuan's retreat is over!
