So, They Were the Protagonists All Along

That evening.

Canghai Peak, in the back mountain.

Ying Guhuan sat with his legs crossed, leaning lazily in front of the throne, silently looking out of the hall.

There are thirteen seats in the demon world, and Ying Guhuan ranks seventh.

This seat is not ranked according to strength, but determined by the order of joining the demon world.

A thousand years ago, when he was still in the Refining Essence Realm, Ying Guhuan had already left a poor village in Beizhou and joined the demon world.

When he was in the Refining Spirit Realm, he was favored by the Queen of the Demon World and became the seventh seat of the demon world, receiving a large amount of resources.

There are very few people favored by the Queen of the Demon World, and she is one of them.

In fact, there are more demon cultivators in the Liangyi Sect than Ying Guhuan herself. She has five capable confidants, hiding in the five main peaks.

These confidants will not contact her on weekdays, and will only report to her when there are some special circumstances.

The last time he received intelligence from his subordinates was late at night some time ago.

At that time, she only had one piece of information - Ye Yu's Heavenly Qi was missing, and the two most suspicious people were Mu Zhian and Bai Ruoxi.

She had checked Mu Zhian before and confirmed that he did not have Heavenly Qi.

This also means that the person who is most likely to have Heavenly Qi is Bai Ruoxi.

But considering that Heavenly Qi is not in a hurry to be recovered, and it is not certain whether it is true or false at this time, she has not made any moves.

But not long ago, Ye Yu also pointed out that Bai Ruoxi had Heavenly Qi hidden in his body.

However, Mu Zhian admitted that Heavenly Qi was in his body...

This makes people have to pay attention.

When he was checking his body, he did not notice the existence of Heavenly Dao Qi...

Suddenly, a Taoist boy trotted in from outside the hall, and said in a sweet voice like a silver bell: "Master, there is a disciple outside who wants to see you."

Ying Guhuan, who was playing with a strand of fine hair, raised his eyes slightly and heard the Taoist boy continue: "It is Mu Zhian, the inner disciple of the library. He said he has important things to report to you."

Generally speaking, Ying Guhuan's back mountain is rarely disturbed by people. Even Yi Hao, the head of Canghai Peak, rarely disturbs his master's practice. Mu Zhian should be the first one who dares to disturb Ying Guhuan like this.

"Mu Zhian?"

Ying Guhuan tapped the edge of the chair lightly with his fingertips, narrowed his eyes, and said in a soft and charming voice full of texture: "Please let him in~"

After a while, Mu Zhian, led by the Taoist boy, walked into the hall and saw Ying Guhuan, who had just finished bathing not long ago, in the side hall.

She was wearing a light red gauze skirt, revealing a little bit of her fair skin. She sat sideways on the chair, crossed her legs, and drank tea leisurely.

She was charming and sexy, and the red gauze skirt added a different style to her.

Ying Guhuan glanced at Mu Zhian who was standing in front of the side hall, and said softly: "Why did you come to Canghai Peak to find me instead of taking care of your Taoist partner?"

"Is there something important you want to discuss with me?"

At the end, there seemed to be some expectation in his eyes.

Mu Zhian raised his hand and bowed, saying: "Junior does have something to discuss with you."

"What is it?" Ying Guhuan asked.

Mu Zhian did not answer, but just looked around, and then said: "Please ask the senior to dismiss the others."

Ying Guhuan raised his eyes and gestured to the two Taoist children. After the two left, he retracted his gaze and invited Mu Zhian to take a seat.

"It's still early to reach the spirit realm at the eighth level of Qi training. You should practice well and don't worry about other things." She spoke softly.

Her tone was full of love and concern for the younger generation, and the deepest part of her eyes was a kind of fiery heat that seemed to be seen when she saw her prey.

Mu Zhian heard this and smiled bitterly: "The younger generation wants to practice in peace, but there will always be troubles... The seniors also saw what happened today. It's not that I want to cause trouble, but there are always people who want to retaliate against me."

Ying Guhuan chuckled and said: "Bai Ruoxi and Ye Lingxuan, and even Miss Ye Qian, are beauties that are hard to pursue even in the sect. Even the maid next to you is also a great beauty."

"It would be fine if you just have a good relationship with one girl, but you are so good that you have intimate relationships with so many people at the same time. No wonder some people hate you and even want to retaliate against you."

"Ye Yu used to have a bad relationship with me when he was in Tianxuan City. This is not something I can control." Mu Zhian shook his head and sighed.

"As for the Third Prince, actually, when he was participating in the sect assessment, he intended to tease my two sisters, which caused some conflicts with him, but I didn't expect that he would use this method to frame the people around me."

"In this way, it is naturally difficult for people to calm down and practice well." Mu Zhian said in embarrassment.

Ying Guhuan raised her eyebrows slightly and took a sip of tea, which made her lips more moist.

She raised her other leg, revealing her long white legs under the red gauze, and smiled faintly:

"As for the Third Prince, I will talk to the people in the Law Enforcement Hall. Even if he returns to the Dagan Dynasty in the future, he will be put in solitary confinement. From now on, you will not see him again."

"What about Ye Yu?" Mu Zhian suddenly asked.

Ying Guhuan fell silent.

If Bai Ruoxi really has the aura of heaven, she will naturally not sit idly by.

It seems that I came just in time... Mu Zhian looked at this scene, and his heart was slightly clear, and he spoke again: "Is the first seat the seventh seat?"

Ying Guhuan looked at Mu Zhian in surprise, as if he was a little surprised, and narrowed his eyes slightly, saying: "How did you know it?"

"Your men revealed it before they died." Mu Zhian said.

Ying Guhuan gently lifted his chin with his green jade fingers, and then stroked Mu Zhian's face with his white hand, and smiled charmingly: "You know too much, aren't you afraid that you can't leave this hall today?"

Mu Zhian grabbed the slightly cold slender jade hand, looked at Ying Guhuan and said: "The junior is loyal to the senior, and the world can bear witness to it."

The charming woman smiled and said: "If you really report this to the elders, no one will believe you."

"Tell me, what exactly do you want to see me for?" Ying Guhuan unnoticeably withdrew the slender hand held by Mu Zhian, and looked at him tenderly.

"The senior should have heard Ye Yu talk about the Qi of Heaven today." Mu Zhian said.

Ying Guhuan nodded slightly, narrowed her eyes and smiled: "I know, there is the Qi of Heaven in your cauldron."

After she said this, she casually asked: "Does Bai Ruoxi also have the Qi of Heaven?"

The soft and pleasant voice, with a texture that makes people's bones numb, made LSPs like Mu Zhian couldn't help but feel moved, and for a moment, he had the urge to answer her truthfully.

But the Qi of Heaven in his body protected his spiritual consciousness, making Mu Zhian wake up instantly, and there was a little more fear in his eyes when he looked at the charming red-dressed beauty.

I don't know if this demon cultivator is also a fox. This level of charm is much stronger than anyone he has seen before...except the queen of the demon world.

"There is only one Qi of Heaven, and it is in me." Mu Zhian said sincerely.

Ying Guhuan narrowed her beautiful eyes, staring at Mu Zhian's handsome face, her green jade fingers stroking the tea stains on the edge of the cup, and smiled lightly: "Do you think I am a fool?"

"I naturally know how smart you are, and I don't intend to deceive you."

Mu Zhian gently put down the teacup, changed the subject, and smiled: "At your level, the Heavenly Qi should be useless, right? After all, the Heavenly Qi will choose its own master. If there is really a Heavenly Qi that recognizes you, even if you don't look for it, it will find it in various ways."

The so-called finding does not mean that the Heavenly Qi will fly to the owner by itself. Just like the Heavenly Qi on Bai Ruoxi, in a sense, it was the Heavenly Qi that chose Bai Ruoxi in the end.

"The Heavenly Qi that was obtained by force seems to have no effect except sending it back to the demon world?" Mu Zhian asked.

"You are right. Even if I get the Qi of Heaven, I will just send it back to the demon world." Ying Guhuan smiled faintly, "But after sending it back to the demon world, I can get rewards from the demon world. Since I can get benefits, why not do it?"

She suddenly changed her tone and stared at Mu Zhian: "Or can you give me more benefits that will make me more excited?"

Her voice was full of laziness that made people's hearts flutter. The red dress seemed a little small, unable to completely cover her body, outlining her curvy figure, hot and hot.

The faint fragrance on her body fell lightly into the tip of Mu Zhian's nose. Ying Guhuan's hair fell, like a ripe peach, making Mu Zhian, who used to wander among flowers all year round, feel a little dry in the mouth.

But he did not avoid Ying Guhuan's gaze. Instead, under her gaze, he stared at the gentle eyes of the beauty in the red dress and the fatal temptation she exuded at this moment.

He took up his courage and reached out to gently hold the soft and slightly cool hand of the beauty in the red dress.

"I can't give any benefits, all I can give is a sincere heart."

"There are many heavenly energies in this world, but I am the only one who can really play a role for the senior."

Ying Guhuan narrowed her eyes slightly, her eyes were rippling, and under her beautiful face, such a simple action had a different style.

"You are really brave."

"But you are also very smart."

"So what does Sister Ying mean..." Mu Zhian asked tentatively.

"Practice well, you don't have to worry about the rest. If you have any trouble, you can come to the back mountain to discuss with me." Ying Guhuan said with a smile.

Hearing this, Mu Zhian felt relieved and finally relieved.

"The younger generation will definitely work hard to practice and live up to Sister Ying's kindness!" Mu Zhian raised his hand and bowed.

…

Mu Zhian left the back mountain of Canghai Peak and saw the maid standing in front of the cave waiting for him silently. He walked forward and raised his hand to say, "Sister Mengrou, we can go now."

Wei Mengrou glanced at him and saw the smile on her young master's face, so she knew that he should have made the deal.

She raised her hand to summon the flying sword and took Mu Zhian away from Canghai Peak, and then suddenly asked, "Did she compromise?"

Mu Zhian nodded slightly, "Whether Ruoxi has the Qi of Heaven or not, she will not pursue it anymore."

Ye Yu thought that as long as the demon cultivators in the sect knew about this, it would cause great trouble for Mu Zhian, but he obviously didn't expect that Mu Zhian himself was a "traitor" in the demon world.

To be precise, he was Wujiandao, a little grass wandering between the demon world and Liangyi Sect.

And he had already seen his superior.

"Should the chief not care about such a sacred object as the Qi of Heaven?" Wei Mengrou frowned slightly, a little unconvinced.

Mu Zhian stepped on the flying sword, gently hugged the plump waist of the yellow-skirted maid, smelled the fragrance of the beauty's hair, and smiled faintly: "The energy of heaven is very important."

"However, my Heavenly Qi is more important."

Not to mention that he has Heavenly Qi in his body now, even if he doesn't have it, it is equally important to Ying Guhuan.

On one side is Heavenly Qi that must be handed over immediately after obtaining it, and on the other side is the Tiansheng furnace tripod strengthened by Heavenly Qi, plus the spirit dragon behind Mu Zhian.

Putting these two on a scale, what choice will be made in the end, the answer can be easily revealed naturally.

As the maid who knows the young master best, Wei Mengrou immediately thought of something when she heard this, and there was a bit of strangeness in her eyes, saying: "You let her choose between you and Heavenly Qi?"

If so, it is not surprising what choice Ying Guhuan will make.

After all, even if she handed over Heavenly Qi to the demon world, she could only get a large amount of elixirs and precious skills.

It's not that these things are not tempting, but after all, these are external things.

What really matters is your own strength.

Seeing that Mu Zhian didn't say anything, Wei Mengrou knew that her guess was correct, and she couldn't help but glance at her young master.

No wonder he received so many pills these days. It turned out that those masters were coveting the young master's cauldron and hoping that he would enter the realm of refining the spirit as soon as possible.

Wei Mengrou thought as she drove the flying sword away from Canghai Peak.

"Don't go back yet. I'll have to trouble Sister Mengrou to take me to the library." Mu Zhian suddenly said.

Wei Mengrou glanced at him and said, "Are you going to see Pavilion Master Yan?"

"I'm not looking for Pavilion Master Yan." Mu Zhian smiled.

"I'm looking for the eldest princess."

When Princess Yongning came to Liangyi Sect before, she took the initiative to pay back a full one million spirit stones for the third prince. If you say that she had no purpose, that is absolutely impossible.

After all, even if they are members of the royal family, it is impossible to give these one million spirit stones.

From the tone of Princess Yongning when she mentioned the third prince that day, it can be judged that she has no feelings for the third prince.

In other words, Princess Yongning needs the Third Prince to do something for her.

What can the eldest princess need the Third Prince, who used to be useless in the royal family, to do?

"What do you want to do?" Wei Mengrou glanced at Mu Zhian.

"The eldest princess knows all the big and small things that happened in the sect, but in Liangyi Sect, there are only one or two disciples from the royal family." Mu Zhian said leisurely.

"Sister Mengrou, where do you think Princess Yongning got some things in the sect from?"

Wei Mengrou hesitated and said, "You mean, she asked the Third Prince to report some big and small things in the sect to her?"

"The Third Prince should be one of them." Mu Zhian said.

"So what does this have to do with you going to her?" Wei Mengrou asked.

"I will be the informant in the future."

Mu Zhian smiled and said, "The Third Prince will leave the sect in the future, and his mission should end here."

When the two left Canghai Peak, what happened in the Pilgrimage Hall today also reached the ears of the various chiefs.

In the main hall of Tianji Peak, Yu Xuanji, wearing a black robe and sitting cross-legged on the pool, looked at the information sent not long ago.

Then, her delicate lips outlined a very beautiful arc.

Now it is almost certain that Mu Zhian is the Tiansheng furnace.

At this moment, Yu Xuanji's eyes revealed a look of sudden enlightenment.

No wonder during this period, those chiefs took turns to send elixirs to Tianhe Garden... At first, she thought it was because of the spirit dragon behind Mu Zhian.

Unexpectedly, these people just wanted Mu Zhian to enter the realm of refining the spirit as soon as possible.

As for the reason... it is already obvious.

The higher the realm of the Tiansheng furnace, the better the effect.

After Mu Zhian entered the realm of refining the spirit, his Tiansheng furnace can greatly improve the cultivators in the Return to Void Realm, and even allow them to directly break through that bottleneck.

After the Return to Void Realm, each grade is like an uncrossable gap, but the Tiansheng furnace can directly help them cross this gap.

The pair of sisters at Dao Peak, and the first generation head of Canghai Peak, all of them really did everything they could to cultivate immortality...

Looking at the letter in her hand, Yu Xuanji curled her lips in disdain and sneered secretly.

She glanced at the disciple beside her and said, "Send some Qi-absorbing pills to Tianhe Garden tomorrow."

Although she looked down on him, but...cultivating immortality really requires using any means necessary.
