So, They Were the Protagonists All Along

Snowflakes were falling outside, candles burned quietly, and time passed by silently.

Regarding Mu Zhian's unethical sneak attack, Ye Lingxuan was not angry at all, but was more flustered and shy.

She is not a simple girl like her younger sister Ye Qian. At least tonight when Mu Zhian mentioned that he wanted to stay, Ye Lingxuan had more or less vaguely guessed something.

If it were in the past, Ye Lingxuan would have probably summoned the Lock of Desolation Time, tied up Mu Zhian, packed it up and thrown it out.

But at this moment, whether it was because she had just woken up from the trance of meditation, or because she had never had such close contact with Mu Zhian in the past, Ye Lingxuan just instinctively held down the material of her inner garment.

She turned her head slightly in confusion, and after seeing the young man's face clearly, there was a bit of shame and annoyance in her eyes, and she whispered angrily: "Why did Brother Mu come in? Didn't I agree that he was just a protector?"

Mu Zhian's chest was close to Ye Lingxuan's back, his hands hugged her slender waist, and he whispered softly in his ear: "It's snowing outside. In such a cold weather, you have the heart to let me meditate on the floor." ”

"Then...then you can meditate on the bed, don't do this..." Ye Lingxuan's fair and tender face was already stained with a drunken blush. She lowered her head slightly and squirmed in Mu Zhian's arms. She seemed to want to break away from his arms.

However, it was naturally impossible to break free from such a symbolic action. Mu Zhian not only did not let go, but instead held Ye Lingxuan's delicate body in his arms more intimately.

"It's getting cold, it'll be warmer if two people sleep together." Mu Zhian said seriously.

"How could a monk feel cold..." Ye Lingxuan gave Mu Zhian an angry look, but under his affectionate gaze, she withdrew her gaze like a deer in panic, not daring to look at him.

Seeing this, Mu Zhian tried to boldly make the next move. At this moment, Ye Lingxuan seemed to wake up. She subconsciously held Mu Zhian's hand and raised her head to look at him with moist and warm eyes. Complex color.

Mu Zhian tried again, but Ye Lingxuan's hand firmly grasped Mu Zhian's palm, preventing him from making any further movements.

Mu Zhian stared at the little beauty in his arms without making any movement.

His eyes gradually changed from affectionate to helpless and lost.

Then, as if he had lost his strength, he silently released his hands around her slender waist and sighed softly: "Sorry, I seem to be too anxious tonight."

Ye Lingxuan was stunned for a moment and looked at Mu Zhian blankly, with confusion in her moist and bright peach blossom eyes.

Mu Zhian lifted up the sheets, sat on the bed, and whispered: "The Immortal Ascension Conference is coming soon. Whether Dongzhou can win the competition this time, I believe the sect master has his own arrangements."

"Being so intimate with you at this juncture will probably make you think that I came to you tonight to give you the spiritual energy of the ninth generation, and that I came to you tonight for the Immortal Ascension Conference."

Mu Zhian turned his head slightly, looked at Ye Lingxuan who had already raised his body and sat on the bed with his legs crossed, and said with a gentle smile: "To be honest, when you asked me to come to you tonight, I did have some inappropriate thoughts. , However, this has nothing to do with the Immortal Ascension Conference or even the ninth generation spiritual energy."

He stretched out his hand and gently stroked Ye Lingxuan's silky hair, and said, "I am simply attracted to you because sister Lingxuan is very charming."

Ye Lingxuan subconsciously pressed one hand on the collar on her chest, her peach blossom eyes filled with mist, and whispered: "Brother Mu..."

Just as Mu Zhian thought, Ye Lingxuan did not object to the intimacy, and even tonight she did not object to the intimacy between the two.

As for why he obstructed his intimacy in every possible way, it probably was because of the girl's inner shame and what Mu Zhian had said before about the Ninth Life Spiritual Energy.

Unlike Yao Meng, Ye Lingxuan is the kind of girl who needs some sense of ritual. The intimacy between the two after a close relationship is okay, but if it is mixed with the 'Ninth Life Spiritual Energy', the Ascension Conference and other more purposeful Regarding sexual matters, this would make Ye Lingxuan feel a little confused.

She hopes that the relationship with Mu Zhian can be more pure, instead of being intimate for the purpose of the ninth life's spiritual energy.

"Sister Lingxuan, do you think I did this tonight because of what the reincarnated queen just said?" Mu Zhian suddenly asked.

Ye Lingxuan lowered her head and remained silent.

At this time, Mu Zhian grabbed one of Ye Lingxuan's little hands, and then put the soft and cool little hand in front of his chest. He lowered his head and stared at her stunning face, and whispered: "Sister Lingxuan is so talented. A charming girl shouldn’t doubt herself.”

"Can't sister Lingxuan feel something from my heartbeat?"

Feeling the heartbeat coming from the palm of her hand, and Mu Zhian's gentle and sweet tone in her ears, the tangle that had been hovering in Ye Lingxuan's heart seemed to gradually dissolve, and there seemed to be a warm current flowing naturally in her body. .

Mu Zhian gently pulled Ye Lingxuan into his arms, lowered his head, leaned into her ear, and said softly: "If you don't want the relationship between you and me to be contaminated by other purposes. ', I can give you the spiritual energy of the ninth life next time."

Ye Lingxuan blushed and whispered: "Then we have to meet Brother Mu again next time..."

"Don't you like it?" Mu Zhian lowered his head and stared at Ye Lingxuan's pretty face.

Under Mu Zhian's affectionate gaze and sweet words, her little hands felt Mu Zhian's heartbeat and his warm embrace, and the last bit of entanglement in Ye Lingxuan's heart seemed to gradually fade away, and she shyly turned her face away.

The candlelight swayed gently, illuminating the shy and beautiful face of this quiet and elegant little beauty.

Mu Zhian reached out and gently stroked her face, lifted her pointed and snow-white chin, stared at this perfect face that had gradually shown a stunning beauty, lowered his head slightly, and kissed her small, rosy and soft lips.

Ye Lingxuan closed her eyes slightly, her two little hands had nowhere to put, her long and curled eyelashes held the candlelight, and trembled slightly as time passed.

Slowly, she hooked her hands around Mu Zhian's neck, her breathing speed gradually accelerated, and her face became more and more rosy.

After an unknown amount of time, Mu Zhian released his lips. Ye Lingxuan was panting softly. Compared to her usual quiet and elegant appearance, the girl at this moment seemed to have a different kind of charm.

Mu Zhian put one hand on Ye Lingxuan's shoulder and let her lean on the bed behind him.

Then he pulled the quilt that was in the way aside. Under Ye Lingxuan's misty purple eyes, he lowered his head slightly, occupied her soft lips, and then slowly moved down.

After an unknown amount of time, Mu Zhian, who was still trying to please Ye Lingxuan, suddenly stopped, just lowered his head and looked at the girl, and fell into deep thought.

Ye Lingxuan supported his chest with her two small hands. Seeing that Mu Zhian had not moved for a long time, she slowly opened her emotional eyes and said in confusion: "Brother Mu...?"

Her two feet rubbed each other and fought, and her moist eyes stared at Mu Zhian, as if she wanted to say something, but she was embarrassed to say it.

"Not going on?" In the end, she changed to a more shy method, looking at him shyly.

"I'm thinking, how can I return the ninth life's spiritual energy to you?" Mu Zhian looked at Ye Lingxuan's blushing face, but he felt like he was drawing his sword and looking around.

Ye Lingxuan: "..."

Although this statement ruined the atmosphere a bit, Mu Zhian's words made her a little confused.

In the past, the reincarnated queen stored the ninth life's spiritual energy in Mu Zhian's body. According to the reincarnated queen's intention at that time, the ninth life's spiritual energy could be strengthened once in the natural furnace. After the ninth life's spiritual energy was handed over to Ye Lingxuan, Ye Lingxuan's inheritance would be perfectly achieved.

However, how to hand over the ninth life's spiritual energy to her?

Mu Zhian could not control the ninth life's spiritual energy on his side, so he naturally did not know how to transfer it to Ye Lingxuan.

"How about...try a few more times later?" Mu Zhian suddenly said after thinking for a moment.

"Ah...?" Ye Lingxuan asked in a low voice, not understanding.

Then, noticing the burning look in his eyes as he looked at her, she immediately understood what he meant and shook her head, saying, "No--"

Before she finished speaking, her voice suddenly paused slightly. Ye Lingxuan frowned slightly, her cheeks flushed, her two small hands tightly hugged Mu Zhian's neck, she slightly raised her head, and her toes slowly moved up along the bed.

...

Time passed silently.

At this moment, the Tiansheng furnace was running frantically. Mu Zhian's Tiansheng furnace and Ye Lingxuan's furnace seemed to have merged into a whole, and in that Tiansheng furnace, a golden aura containing strong vitality silently entered Ye Lingxuan's furnace.

The ninth life aura of the reincarnated queen!

This aura was different from the first eight auras that Ye Lingxuan had inherited before. It seemed to have completed its evolution again in the Tiansheng furnace, and it contained a trace of Tao rhyme.

That was the Dao rhyme formed by the combination of the Enlightenment Seed and the Soul-Returning Pill taken that day.

In Ye Lingxuan's cauldron, the aura of the ninth generation seemed to have become the coordinator. The aura of the ninth generation was arranged in a pyramid from top to bottom in the cauldron, and at the top was the aura of the ninth generation that had just entered.

Ye Lingxuan's eyebrows gradually relaxed, and her body felt unprecedented ease and comfort. She could no longer tell whether it was the blessing brought by the aura of the ninth generation, or simply because of the comfort brought by Mu Zhian...

At this moment, various images of the past flashed quickly in Ye Lingxuan's mind.

She saw herself who had experienced nine generations in the past. In each life, she was alone wandering in the ancient times, just to resonate with different Daos.

This is the way of reincarnation.

Ye Lingxuan slowly opened her eyes, her eyes were slightly dazed, and suddenly the images in front of her disappeared completely. She could only see Mu Zhian's handsome face and the gentleness in his eyes.

She closed her eyes slightly, and used her body and mind to feel the warmth brought by Mu Zhian, as well as the blessing brought by the nine generations of spiritual energy in the cauldron.

In addition, the imperial-level medicinal materials that had just been refined also entered Ye Lingxuan's reincarnation cauldron silently.

"The spiritual energy in the cauldron has obviously increased a lot, and the quality of my body has also improved a lot, and there is also that trace of Tao rhyme... It stands to reason that the rules of heaven and earth do not allow the comprehension of Tao rhyme. As for why it is in my body now, it should be that Brother Mu's natural cauldron directly blocked the blessing brought to me by the secret of heaven..."

"There is a hurdle between refining the spirit and returning to the void. There are quite a few contestants who have high-level refining spirits this time. If I can comprehend that trace of Tao rhyme, I should be able to win this Ascension Conference..."

Ye Lingxuan closed her eyes tightly and tried to completely refine that trace of Tao rhyme, so as to comprehend the 'Tao rhyme' that may not be comprehended even in the Return to the Void Realm.

"The so-called harmony of the Dao means harmony with one of the three Daos of heaven, earth and man. This Dao rhyme is not any of the three Daos of heaven, earth and man. It requires me to make my own choice."

"My Dao is more suitable for the Dao of Heaven, but if it is in harmony with the Dao in the future, it will be dominated by the Dao of Heaven..."

"The road of the Dao of Heaven is already blocked."

When Ye Lingxuan thought of this, she suddenly felt that she seemed to have grasped something. The spiritual energy circulated in her body one after another. Mu Zhian's spiritual energy was constantly transferred into Ye Lingxuan's cauldron. She felt that the original dead end seemed like a beam of sunlight shining through the darkness.

That was the fourth road guided by the Dao of Heaven in Mu Zhian's body!

And the end of the fourth road was still the Dao of Heaven.

Ye Lingxuan slowly raised her fingers and finally chose the Dao of Heaven.

But this Dao of Heaven is not the Dao of Heaven in the world today.

On the other side, Mu Zhian also felt that there seemed to be a wisp of spiritual energy in Ye Lingxuan's body quietly blending into the cauldron that merged with the two of them.

It was just a wisp of spiritual energy, but it made Mu Zhian feel an unprecedented sense of comfort, as if the entire cauldron seemed to come alive and was running wildly.

That was the return of Ye Lingxuan's nine-life spiritual energy to him.

That wisp of spiritual energy almost filled Mu Zhian's cauldron in an instant, reaching the peak of the fourth level of soul refining!

It was only one step away from breaking through the fourth level of soul refining!

In the past, I had always devoted myself blindly, but I didn't expect that I could still get a return... Mu Zhian looked at Ye Lingxuan, whose cheeks were flushed and eyes were closed, and couldn't help but admire her in his heart.

At this time, Ye Lingxuan moaned, slowly opened her eyes, and looked at Mu Zhian with a dazed look, her eyes full of affection.

Boom!

On a snowy night, a deafening roar resounded in the quiet Liangyi Sect in the middle of the night.

Under the night, pale white halos lit up silently like stars, and the silent night suddenly became as bright as day, as if some existence in the world could no longer hold back.

In a certain villa, Regina, who was full of exotic style, looked up at the sky that was as bright as day at this moment, her eyes flickered slightly, and she murmured to herself: "Someone has comprehended a trace of Tao rhyme...?"

Under the current situation where the rules of heaven and earth do not allow it, someone actually comprehended a trace of Tao rhyme first, and even caused a strange phenomenon...?

For some reason, Regina thought of someone for no reason.

...

Liangyi Peak.

Concubine Shang Yan tapped the table lightly with her fingertips, raised her head and stared at the direction of the Glazed Palace, and a faint arc appeared at the corner of her mouth.

"Really amazing..." There was sincere admiration in her voice, but I didn't know who she was admiring.

"Who is the master referring to?" Lan Murian twisted a white piece in her hand and looked at the black-dressed beauty sitting opposite.

"Nothing, don't worry about it."

Shang Yanfei said lightly: "Go and ask the leaders of several main peaks to activate the sect's formation."

"Someone is getting restless."
