So, They Were the Protagonists All Along

What is the Demon Queen doing in Dongzhou?

Mu Zhian looked at the woman in front of him, his mind full of doubts.

After all, she was a demon emperor, and she was safe and sound in Beizhou, but she came to Dongzhou at this sensitive time, and even seemed to be attached to a young girl. It was absolutely impossible for Mu Zhian to not care.

This was also the reason why he had "reminded" the Fairy Qingqun before, asking her to appear at the right time to see what the Demon Queen wanted to do.

With the appearance of the Fairy Qingqun, Wang Ying, or the Demon Queen attached to Wang Ying, raised her eyes slightly and looked at the Fairy Qingqun with a little surprise.

"I didn't expect that you can still detect my existence even though your breath is so weak now."

Her words were full of sincere admiration. In order to avoid being noticed, she blocked the secrets of heaven, and this time it was only a wisp of spiritual consciousness that came, and it was even attached to a female cultivator in the Refining Spirit Realm.

Under such circumstances, the Green Emperor actually noticed it at the first time, which was really surprising.

"I can detect the aura on you even if you block the secrets of heaven." Fairy Qingqun looked at Wang Ying and said, "The queen of the demon world came to my palace quietly. Is there something important?"

Wang Ying smiled faintly and said softly, "I just want to chat with my subordinates and reminisce about the past. It has nothing to do with you."

"Subordinates?" Fairy Qingqun couldn't help but glance at Mu Zhian and said, "He is not a demon cultivator, so how could he be your subordinate?"

Wang Ying pursed her charming red lips, raised her eyelids slightly, and said charmingly, "I met this little cultivator by chance in the past, and left the mark of the demon world on him. Since then, he has been used by me."

"But don't worry, I don't know his love affair or what he does on weekdays. I won't interfere. I left a mark on him at the beginning just because I wanted to. "

Wang Ying changed her tone and continued: "However, it is beyond my expectation that the dignified Qing Emperor would practice dual cultivation of spiritual energy and the person of the Tianshengluding. "

The Qingqun Fairy's cold jade-like face showed a faint smile for the first time. She stared at Wang Ying quietly and said: "I am not just for spiritual energy."

She paused and continued: "It seems that your body can do very little. You only know that he is a Tianshengluding, but you don't know how many things are hidden in his Tianshengluding?"

The current body of the Queen of the Demon Realm is not her original body. She came to Dongzhou this time and only used a spiritual consciousness to temporarily attach herself to Wang Ying, the daughter of the Wang family.

A cultivator in the realm of refining spirits, if he does not have close contact with Mu Zhian, naturally will not be able to realize that his Tianshengluding is no longer what it used to be.

"Oh?"

Wang Ying narrowed her eyes slightly, and seemed to have some interest in her eyes, and looked at Mu Zhian for a few times.

From the outside, the boy's appearance is indeed quite good. Even the Queen of the Demon Realm, who is used to seeing all kinds of opposite sexes, rarely sees such a good appearance.

But that's all... at least from the outside, that's all.

Mu Zhian is now a first-grade soul refiner, and his talent is not bad, but it is naturally unrealistic to enter the eyes of the Queen of the Demon Realm.

But what the Green Emperor said just now makes people a little concerned...

Speaking of which, it is indeed a bit strange.

In theory, the physique of a natural furnace cauldron will not evolve, but if so, it doesn't make sense why the Green Emperor would practice dual cultivation with a little cultivator.

If the realm of a natural furnace cauldron is the realm of soul refinement, then his cauldron will be the realm of returning to the void.

But even if the Tiansheng furnace cauldron is dual-cultivated once, the spiritual energy it can provide is limited... Even if it lasts for a whole day, it is impossible to completely absorb the spiritual energy of the Tiansheng furnace cauldron.

But the spiritual energy filled in the body of the Green Emperor at this moment is much more than that of a normal Return to Void Realm cultivator.

Logically speaking, even if they practiced dual cultivation day and night until daytime, the Green Emperor should not have such spiritual energy.

From this, we can draw a conclusion-Mu Zhian's Tiansheng furnace cauldron has been strengthened more than once.

Being stared at by the demon queen so directly, even Mu Zhian felt a little scalp numb. He coughed lightly and interrupted at the right time, saying: "The Queen came to Dongzhou specially this time and even came to see me. Is there something important?"

This woman is the most dangerous one that Mu Zhian has come into contact with from the past to the present... At least that's the feeling Mu Zhian gave on the surface.

Among the powerful people in the Hedao Realm that Mu Zhian has come into contact with, the sect leader Shang Yanfei is mysterious and unknown. Miss Linglong is simple-minded. As long as you can feed her, she will not disturb you.

Fairy Qingqun is more of a cool type. She is proficient in playing the guzheng and her voice is lingering and pleasant to the ear. Therefore, just her voice made Mu Zhian very excited when they were in bed last night.

Although Fairy Qingqun seems to be very kind and gentle when talking to others on weekdays, she is a very difficult person to control.

Although he took the initiative at the beginning last night, after the vines controlled him, Fairy Qingqun took the dominant position.

As for the charming queen of the demon world... She is the most dangerous existence that Mu Zhian has ever met. Just by meeting her eyes, he will be uncontrollably attracted to her.

You know, someone like Mu Zhian who has been wandering among flowers all year round and has a very high self-cultivation can control himself from looking at a woman if he really wants to.

But only the Queen of the Demon Realm will make him feel his heartbeat speed up at the first sight of her.

This is caused by the "charm" ability of the Queen of the Demon Realm.

Just by attaching to a girl, she has the charm to fascinate everyone. If her real body comes, I am afraid that she will kneel down and pay homage uncontrollably at the first sight.

While Mu Zhian was sighing in his heart, he secretly observed the Queen of the Demon Realm and waited for her to speak.

"I came to you for something."

Under Mu Zhian's gaze, the Queen of the Demon Realm slowly said: "This matter is related to the first generation of the Demon King of the Demon Realm."

"If there is anything I need to do, just say it." Mu Zhian said.

He had already guessed something in his heart, but he still planned to wait for the Queen of the Demon Realm to explain it herself.

"After the first generation of demon kings was suppressed, I cleaned up Beizhou and wiped out the remnants of the previous demon world. Although there are still remnants of demon cultivators from the previous generation in the demon world, they are few and far between and cannot cause any big waves."

When the demon queen said this, she looked at Mu Zhian with a faint gaze: "However, Beizhou has been cleaned up, but there are still many in Dongzhou."

Mu Zhian's eyes moved slightly, as if he knew something, and said: "What did the seventh seat say?"

When he went to Tianxuan City before, he used the power of the spirit dragon to scare away the remnants of demon cultivators from the previous generation. After escaping from Tianxuan City, that person was suppressed by Ying Guhuan and Yan Ruyu and captured by the Law Enforcement Hall of Liangyi Sect.

It seems that the people in the Law Enforcement Hall should have obtained a lot of information from the demon cultivator.

The demon queen nodded silently.

"More than a thousand years have passed, and there are still remnants of demon cultivators from the past lingering, and even let them run to Dongzhou. This is not like your style." The pleasant voice of the green skirt fairy came faintly.

"Most of the remnants of demon cultivators who stayed in Beizhou have been eliminated... As for the affairs of Dongzhou, it has nothing to do with me." The Queen of the Demon Realm said lightly.

If they were in Beizhou, none of them would be able to escape.

But even the Queen of the Demon Realm could not reach out to Dongzhou.

It seems that the Queen of the Demon Realm came to Dongzhou this time to completely eliminate the first generation of demon emperors, so as not to have more dreams at night... Mu Zhian listened to the two people's conversation and came to this conclusion in his heart.

At this time, the Queen of the Demon Realm continued: "This time the Tiandan Phoenix tree bears fruit, you must pay attention to protecting the Tiandan Phoenix fruit. Once the Tiandan Phoenix tree bears fruit, it will be the best time for the remnants of the previous generation of demon cultivators to secretly act."

"Without the reincarnation water, relying only on the Tiandan Phoenix fruit, could the first generation of demon emperors also be able to reshape their bodies?" Mu Zhian asked.

"The original body of the first generation demon king is quite special. Even without the reincarnation water, he can still maintain his own form for a period of time." The green skirt fairy said.

As if knowing Mu Zhian's doubts, the green skirt fairy spoke again: "His original body is the nine-life sky phoenix. If he practices to the extreme, he can achieve an immortal body. Once he obtains the sky pill phoenix fruit, he can use it to temporarily condense the cauldron and regain his life."

Mu Zhian looked thoughtful.

Then, she suddenly asked, "Isn't it safe enough to have the Queen and Senior Qingdi guarding the Tiandan Phoenix Tree?"

The Queen of the Demon Realm touched the table with her green jade fingers, and she said calmly, "My spiritual consciousness attached to this girl will soon disappear, and I can't help you."

"As for her."

The Queen of the Demon Realm looked at the Fairy in Green Skirt, and saw her current state at a glance, and said:

"If I remember correctly, the Tiandan Phoenix Fruit will not produce several at a time, but only one every few days. With the current state of Qingdi, after getting the Tiandan Phoenix Fruit, she will probably need to refine the Tiandan Phoenix Fruit and condense the cauldron."

Is the fairy so weak now?

Mu Zhian looked at the Fairy in Green Skirt with some surprise. The green skirt wrapped her sexy and soft figure, and her exquisite and flawless profile was even more beautiful. Because of the nourishment last night, her skin even showed a healthy light red.

From the appearance alone, it can't be seen that the Fairy in Green Skirt is weak at all.

However, the Queen of the Demon Realm would not lie about such a thing.

Fairy Qingqun, I am afraid that her current condition is indeed very bad.

If so, while Fairy Qingqun is refining the Tiandan Phoenix Fruit, she really needs to think of a way to protect the remaining Tiandan Phoenix Fruit...

After all, if the Tiandan Phoenix Fruit is obtained by the first generation of the Demon Emperor, there will probably be a great chaos in Dongzhou.

You know, even if it is an extremely weak Hedao Realm expert, the counterattack before death will definitely be very terrifying.

The Queen of the Demon Realm spoke again about the previous generation of demon cultivators, and Mu Zhian listened carefully.

According to speculation, these remnants of the previous generation of demon cultivators are likely to be hiding in the ancient family, and some may have become elders among them, and are now lurking in the Holy King City.

If so, their purpose, naturally, is to come for the Tiandan Phoenix Fruit.

If the Green Emperor is indeed in a bad state now, he will indeed have to strengthen the guard of the Tiandan Phoenix Tree in the future.

After they chatted for a while, Mu Zhian suddenly found that there seemed to be a wisp of purple smoke rising from Wang Ying's body. Then, the girl in the red skirt who had just been chatting and laughing with them fainted on the table.

Obviously, the last wisp of spiritual consciousness of the Queen of the Demon Realm attached to Wang Ying had completely disappeared at this moment.

The room fell into a brief silence. Wei Mengrou stepped forward and helped Wang Ying up, saying, "I'll take her back."

The maid always understands the atmosphere very well and will not disturb the young master, but will guard him silently and secretly.

After Mu Zhian watched Wei Mengrou leave, his eyes quickly fell on Fairy Qingqun. Then, his eyes narrowed slightly and he saw Fairy Qingqun's smooth and soft snow-white hands, which seemed to have a slightly translucent feeling. , with a dreamlike and unreal feeling.

Mu Zhian grabbed her hand, which was so cold that even if he held it in his hand, it seemed like it would disappear at any moment.

If it weren't for the Queen of the Demon Realm, he wouldn't have realized it at all... After all, Fairy Qingqun's previous actions were too strong, and it was hard for people to believe that a queen would disappear between heaven and earth.

But now it seems that Fairy Qingqun's condition is indeed very bad.

His current aura only maintains the body of Fairy Qingqun, but if she does not condense the cauldron, she will still be in danger of disappearing.

The fairy in the green skirt stared at him, her lips outlined a faint arc, and said: "There is no need to worry about me. I told you before, the reincarnation water can condense a body for me, and this body can last for at least a month. For the above period, just take the Heavenly Pill Phoenix Fruit during this period.”

She paused and continued: "And I have survived for a long time. Even if I pass away in the future, I can treat it as birth, old age, illness and death, and there is no need to worry about it."

Mu Zhian frowned slightly, held the slender hand of the fairy in the green skirt, stared at her beautiful face, and said: "How can anyone be so indifferent to life and death? If you can live forever, who wouldn't want to?"

Fairy Qingqun smiled lightly and said: "It's good to live forever, but when you see your best friends around you, they are no longer able to withstand the passage of time, and you are finally left alone..."

She raised her head and stared at Mu Zhian and said, "After that, maybe you will have a different view."

"It's enough to grasp it now. At least you still have me here, right?" Mu Zhian put a hand on the slender waist of the fairy in the green skirt. Even through the light material, she could feel the warmth of her skin. Soft and creamy.

He wasn't sure what the empress was thinking. Maybe it was just as she said, because she was used to seeing her friends pass away, so she didn't have much nostalgia for the human world.

What he wants to do is simple - let Fairy Qingqun feel loved.

The relationship between them may not be that deep yet.

But feelings can be cultivated slowly in the future.

The sadness that Fairy Qingqun felt just now disappeared under the influence of Mu Zhian's movements. Mu Zhian passed one hand across Fairy Qingqun's waist and moved it downwards. At the same time, he slowly came forward and wanted to kiss her. Labialis.

Fairy Qingqun subconsciously glanced at the door of the room, then turned to look at Mu Zhian and said: "Wait a minute... close the door -"

Before she finished speaking, Mu Zhian had already occupied her red lips, and then sent a message: "It's okay, this is your bedroom, no one will come..."

He put one hand on the ribbon around Fairy Qingqun's waist and glanced at her subconsciously again.

It seems that because of his action, the beautiful eyes of the fairy in the green skirt stared at him closely. There seemed to be a trace of smoke in the eyes, which was touching, and the face with a faint blush looked even more mature and attractive. .

"You can also close your eyes and leave the rest to me." Mu Zhian said softly.

…

Time passed silently, and before you knew it, ten days had passed.

During this period, Mu Zhian once went to the Holy King City. Firstly, he wanted to see if the spiritual consciousness of the Queen of the Demon Realm was still in Wang Ying. Secondly, he also wanted to try his luck to see if he could detect the demon cultivator from the previous generation. the remnants of.

Many elders of the Huanggu family took this opportunity to invite Mu Zhian to go to their families with them, saying that they would introduce their young ladies to Mu Zhian.

Mu Zhian did not refuse these invitations, but he also did not accept them.

To put it bluntly, his reply was: definitely next time.

As two days passed, a slight vibration was felt in a certain area in Yaochi.

A phoenix cry came from the Tiandan Phoenix Tree area.

On this day, the Heavenly Dan Phoenix Tree bore fruit, and its fire illuminated the Yaochi. Under the sky, the sound of phoenixes echoed throughout the sky.

Many monks came forward and came outside the Yaochi Holy Land to watch this spectacular scene.

The Heavenly Pill Phoenix Tree in the Yaochi Holy Land is famous far and wide in Dongzhou and can only be seen once in a long time.

What's more, this time is even more special.

After all, this time the Heavenly Pill Phoenix Fruit will help Qing Emperor condense the cauldron and return to the realm of harmony.

At this moment, there are many monks not far outside the Yaochi Holy Land, looking at the sky that was burned into red by the Heavenly Pill Phoenix Tree.

"Look, Emperor Qing has come out!" At this time, someone suddenly said.

Everyone looked around and saw the figure of the fairy in the green skirt.

She was wearing a fluttering green skirt, and her body was shrouded in a layer of silvery light like moonlight, giving people a distant and beautiful hazy feeling.

The fairy in the green skirt seemed to be stepping in the void, walking slowly towards the fire phoenix in mid-air.

Her green skirt was fluttering with the fierce wind of fire, but her jade feet were still white under the firelight, and her jade toes were crystal clear, seemingly unstained by the world.

"The Qing Emperor is really graceful and amazing." A casual cultivator looked at the woman in mid-air with longing eyes and sighed softly.

"Even if the empress of the Hedao Realm is weak, she is still beyond the reach of us. This trip to the Holy King's City is not in vain." Another voice came from the side, and the longing in his eyes was hidden in his eyes. But it is deep love.

"If the Green Emperor really relies on the Heavenly Dan Phoenix Fruit to return to the Dao this time, we can be regarded as witnessing history."

"That being said, in order to condense the cauldron, spiritual energy is needed... I wonder how the Green Emperor will obtain spiritual energy." Someone also spoke with a less optimistic attitude.

"Since she is the Green Emperor, there should be some secret method that can temporarily obtain spiritual energy. That day, after she returned to Yaochi, she quickly suppressed the three land immortals. She must have used some secret method to obtain spiritual energy, right?" Someone next to her speculated.

Many people believe that the Green Emperor is a fairy of a generation, with peerless beauty, and there is nothing she can't do. Even without a cauldron, she can use some secret methods to forcibly transfer spiritual energy for her own use.

The Green Emperor does have this secret method.

But in the final analysis, this kind of spiritual energy transferred from heaven and earth can only be used as a means of attack, and cannot be used for one's own use.

"Speaking of which... why is there a male cultivator following the Green Emperor?" At this moment, someone suddenly pointed at the young man not far from the Green Skirt Fairy and couldn't help asking.

At this moment, there was a young man following the Green Skirt Fairy.

He was dignified, wearing a black and gold robe, and had a good face. His appearance alone could attract the attention of many girls present.

But you have to know that the one standing there now is one of the few female emperors in the world!

Just being good-looking is not enough to stay by the side of the female emperor...

For a while, a slight discussion came from outside Yaochi.

"If I remember correctly, this person should be Mu Zhian, right?" A cultivator couldn't help but ask.

These days in the Holy King City, the name Mu Zhian is often mentioned.

In order to prevent more people from competing for the Natural Furnace Cauldron and not to offend the Green Emperor, several ancient families did not expose Mu Zhian's physique.

But some perceptive people still noticed the abnormality.

At this critical moment when the Green Emperor returns, how could the Yaochi Holy Land let an outsider in?

Therefore, some people speculate that the Green Emperor was most likely rescued by Mu Zhian.

This can be seen from the attitudes of the major ancient families in the Holy King City towards Mu Zhian in recent days.

However, why he walked with the Green Emperor at this time is still a bit puzzling.

"It's really strange. Logically, if the Green Emperor wants to condense the cauldron, he needs to refine the Heavenly Dan Phoenix Fruit and then concentrate on meditation and cultivation... Why does he bring Mu Zhian with him at this time?"

"Condensing the cauldron is a long process and cannot be disturbed... It is indeed a bit unreasonable to bring someone with him in this situation."

When everyone was discussing secretly, a voice suddenly sounded lightly: "Speaking of which, the Green Emperor needs spiritual energy to condense the cauldron, and this spiritual energy seems to be only available from the outside world."

"She may have a secret method to extract the spiritual energy between heaven and earth for her own use, but without the cauldron, she cannot take the spiritual energy into her body, let alone condense the cauldron."

"What do you mean, fellow Daoist?" Someone next to him couldn't help but ask.

"The spiritual energy from the outside world may not be of much use to the condensation of the cauldron by the Green Emperor later."

"But if it is the spiritual energy obtained from dual cultivation..."

The originally noisy chatter around him suddenly became silent with this speculation, and countless eyes stared at the young man in the air, seeming a little dazed.
