So, They Were the Protagonists All Along

"Roar..."

A low roar of a forbidden monster sounded in the restricted area. It was shaped like a giant wolf, with a pair of scarlet eyes. When it roared, black air seemed to emanate from its body.

Mu Zhian looked up at the monster, which looked very imposing but seemed to have lost its self-reason.

The rules in this restricted area seemed to affect the creatures in it to a certain extent. Along the way, he even saw some flowers, plants, trees, and even natural treasures that seemed to be affected by the power of the rules, and had a strong increase and intelligence.

Even the plants in the restricted area were affected, but the tribesmen in the restricted area were not affected by it... Actually, it was quite interesting to think about it.

"Tian Kui Wolf, in the restricted area, it is a heavenly monster... If you bring back its magic crystal, this hunting competition will basically be over."

Ye Lingxuan looked at the monster with a hint of unexpected joy in her eyes. She raised her fingertips, and a golden chain quietly came out from her sleeves, turning into a golden stream of light, covering the Tian Kui Wolf from all directions.

The monster that was still struggling paused, and time stopped at this moment.

The lock of the Wild Time Lock reached for the dark blue magic crystal on the forehead of the Tian Kui Wolf, and the next moment, the magic crystal was swept into the girl's hand.

"Is one heavenly monster enough? If necessary, I can take you to other places to prepare more." Mu Zhian asked.

"It is impossible for the candidates this time to find a second Heaven-level monster like the Tiankui Wolf. Moreover, even if they find one, they cannot take away the Monster Crystal unless a large number of cultivators are sent to stop it."

Ye Lingxuan said confidently: "It is not an exaggeration to say that the Monster Crystal is the 'reverse scale' of the monster. If it were not for the Chain of Desolate Time, even if Brother Mu took action, he might not be able to take it down?"

Although these monsters have lost their minds, they still have the most basic desire to survive. Once they sense that someone wants to touch their 'core', they will enter a violent state.

If a forbidden monster that is no less than the peak of Return to Void goes crazy... the cultivators who have just glimpsed the Enlightenment Realm can only avoid it.

Mu Zhian nodded slightly: "Then let's go back first. It has been almost three hours since we came out. I believe that the teams of other candidates are ready to go back."

Ye Lingxuan first said "hmm", and then looked at the boy twice with some concern.

She was still a little concerned about how Brother Mu found the whereabouts of the Tiankui Wolf, and according to what he said just now... it seems that not only the Tiankui Wolf, but also other heavenly monsters, he can also find their coordinates?

It's really a bit worrying...

"By the way, Brother Mu, you have to be careful. I just seemed to feel that a spiritual consciousness locked on you. Although it was only for a moment, you still need to pay attention."

As if she remembered something, Ye Lingxuan suddenly said something in a voice transmission.

Although her realm is a little lower than Mu Zhian, after inheriting the inheritance of the Reincarnated Queen, the girl's realm can be said to be rapidly improved, and her perception is even more amazing. Moreover, the spiritual consciousness that locked on Mu Zhian at that time did not deliberately hide its spiritual consciousness, so she noticed it at the first time.

Mu Zhian couldn't help but smile and said, "Don't worry, I will be careful."

That being said, this place is a restricted area, where the power of rules is different from the outside world of Jiuzhou.

Moreover, Wei Mengrou, Yao Meng and Gong Lianyue are all here, plus his sister Ye and the reincarnated queen... Who in this world can threaten him in a place like the forbidden area?

Besides, he is a natural furnace, even if there are creatures from the forbidden land who are eyeing him, they definitely don't want to kill him.

Rather than someone trying to harm him, Mu Zhian thought it might be Yao Meng or someone else who was worried about his situation, so he used his spiritual sense to confirm it.

"Let's go back first." Mu Zhian smiled and took Ye Lingxuan's hand naturally.

The girl's pretty face was slightly red, she buried her head slightly, and said "um" obediently.

Seeing the girl's obedient appearance, Mu Zhian was even happier and said with a smile: "The effect of the Charming Fairy Flower should have ended, right?"

Ye Lingxuan got on the Phoenix Chariot, trying to stay calm, and said: "Well...well, after all, that thing has no effect on me at all. I just did it to cooperate with Brother Mu at that time."

Mu Zhian couldn't help but have a few more teasing thoughts in his heart when he heard it, and approached the girl and whispered: "It seems that you took the initiative to propose to play this little game at that time, right?"

Ye Lingxuan's pretty face flushed with a more attractive blush.

"By the way, if you inherit the position of the Queen of the Forbidden Zone in the future, can the Lord of the Forbidden Zone hand over the authority of the Forbidden Zone rules to you?" Mu Zhian suddenly asked curiously.

Ye Lingxuan deliberately kept a straight face to maintain her elegant image, and said: "How much power of rules I can inherit is ultimately determined by my own talent, not by my father, so he needs to use this method to select a successor instead of directly choosing me."

"No wonder..."

Mu Zhian thought about it, and suddenly said: "Then after inheriting the power of rules, you can rewrite the rules in the restricted area at will? If it is written that dual cultivation will not give birth to new life, can the power of rules really do this?"

Ye Lingxuan glared at him in anger: "What are you talking about, Brother Mu?!"

"I just remembered that when I was with you before, you seemed to use some means to avoid things like hitting the soul with one shot, so I asked out of curiosity." Mu Zhian smiled.

"That's because I'm not ready to have a baby. After all, Brother Mu and I haven't gotten married yet. It's not that I dislike this kind of thing..."

The little girl's face flushed instantly, and she looked a little helpless. A layer of mist covered her beautiful almond eyes, and she whispered: "Brother Mu, do you want to have a child with me?"

"Huh?"

Mu Zhian silently held his forehead: "I just want to know to what extent the 'rules' can do, whether they can turn decay into magic, as for having children... I'm not mentally prepared for this for the time being."

Ye Lingxuan couldn't help but glance at the boy, seeing him With a helpless look on her face, the girl's shyness just now was restrained a little, and a trace of cunning flashed in her eyes. She leaned close to Mu Zhian's ear and whispered: "If I really get pregnant with Brother Mu's child, will Brother Mu marry me?"

This time it was Mu Zhian's turn to be uneasy, and hesitantly said: "Let's talk about the rules first?"

Ye Lingxuan: "No, you say it first~"

Mu Zhian raised his eyebrows slightly and sighed: "Well, if it's really accidentally hit the soul, there's nothing we can do... But it's better not to rush."

Ye Lingxuan's eyes flickered, and I don't know what she was thinking.

Seeing this, Mu Zhian couldn't help but say: "If you really have this idea..."

Ye Lingxuan frowned slightly and said unhappily: "What's wrong? Could it be that Brother Mu won't be close to me?"

"That won't happen. I still can't bear to part with my sister Lingxuan, but next time I will change the way to play to avoid it." Mu Zhian said.

Ye Lingxuan snorted and threatened, "If I want, Brother Mu will never stop me."

As long as she rewrites the rules of the restricted area during dual cultivation, it will be easy to have a child, right?

"That's not necessarily true. Who told you that the sacred spiritual energy exchange ceremony must be carried out in a normal way? It's also possible to change the way of playing."

Mu Zhian leaned close to the girl's ear and whispered something.

Ye Lingxuan's body froze instantly. The girl, who was in her most beautiful and pure years, had never seen those strange ways of playing. Hearing this, the girl's classical and delicate face quickly turned red. Her little hands subconsciously grasped the hem of her skirt, and her beautiful eyes were misty, sparkling in the evening light.

Ha, Sister Lingxuan is still too young. If the big shark in the fish pond heard this, he might agree with great interest.

After all, Yao Meng had played with him before in the Yaochi Holy Land.

There is more than one road in the world that leads to the destination. The front road and the back road are both possible.

"Just a joke. My sister Lingxuan is really shy."

Mu Zhian took the opportunity to put his arm around the girl's slender waist, glanced out the window, and said, "We seem to be almost there. It's time to get off the carriage."

Ye Lingxuan heard this and suddenly realized that she had almost returned to the depths of the restricted area without realizing it.

She looked at Mu Zhian reluctantly, and then closed her eyes slightly.

After a while, the phoenix carriage stopped and Ye Lingxuan opened her eyes again.

Her expression had returned to her usual elegant lady's demeanor. Her pair of gorgeous purple eyes were indifferent in the afterglow of the sunset, and she said:

"Let's go."

...

This hunting competition started quickly and ended much faster than people imagined.

Although many people believed that their restricted area saint could win the final competition long before the hunting activity began, they still did not expect that the saint could find a top monster like the 'Tian Kui Wolf' in less than two hours, and even easily obtained its magic crystal.

After a moment of silence, the disciples in the surrounding mountains finally started to discuss in low voices when they saw Ye Lingxuan coming down from the phoenix chariot with a palm-sized green magic crystal in her hand.

"She is indeed the one who broke the record of the physical fitness test in the history of the forbidden area. Not only did she find a heavenly monster, but she also hunted its magic crystal in such a short time. Even if you say that the young lady is the master of the previous forbidden area, I believe it..."

"Yes, her talent and appearance are both top-notch, and she is not as arrogant as my other proud children. If she controls the forbidden area in the future, maybe the forbidden area will change..."

"And the young lady looks like she has the same upright character as the clan leader, which is really reassuring."

The younger sister of the queen of the forbidden area, Ye Siyu, listened to the conversation of the disciples of the forbidden area nearby, but couldn't help but smile indifferently.

Upright character?

If my brother-in-law was upright, he wouldn't have offended so many forces in Dongzhou.

As for Lingxuan... maybe she is indeed upright.

However, she is still very playful.

Otherwise, she wouldn't have the scent of Meixianhua on her body today.

Ye Siyu looked at Ye Lingxuan who was coming in this direction with deep meaning.

"With the help of Master Mu, the Saint Lady may be able to surpass the current clan leader in the future."

"Indeed, I heard that practicing with a person who has a natural furnace will have an effect beyond people's imagination... I wonder what kind of amplification effect a natural furnace in the state of enlightenment will have."

There was a pair of twin sisters in the crowd, looking at each other, with a bit of complexity and envy in their eyes.

They were the granddaughters of the second elder, Ye Qing and Ye Xue, who actually questioned Ye Lingxuan's vision at the beginning, which was also the majority of voices in the restricted area at that time.

After all, according to rumors in the restricted area, this princess of the restricted area is the most promising genius who can ascend to heaven on her own, so the clansmen in the restricted area all think that no one in the Nine Provinces can be worthy of the young lady.

However, after the enlightenment calamity ended, everyone gave up this idea.

The so-called genius, I don’t know how many have been seen in the restricted area.

But people who can assist geniuses, and even silently inject spiritual energy into her behind the scenes to help the girl complete her evolution... that is rare.

In a sense, Mu Zhian is also a kind of genius, but compared with his own talent, his talent for assisting others is more dazzling.

It was so dazzling that many female disciples in the restricted area were a little moved, so that when the two appeared at this moment, their eyes fell on Mu Zhian.

Many clan elders who supported Ye Lingxuan’s faction also noticed the arrival of the two, especially when they saw the Tiankui Wolf Demon Crystal in Ye Lingxuan’s hand, they couldn’t help but nod secretly.

After today, even the radicals in the restricted area who advocated the expansion of rules can only kneel down at the feet of the young lady with sincerity.

The disciples in the restricted area may not have any idea about forbidden monsters, but the elders who have been in the restricted area for so long naturally know how rare this heaven-level forbidden monster is.

Even if they collected intelligence and made preparations in advance, they might not be able to find such a heaven-level monster, let alone catch it in such a short time.

However, this matter is probably due to the help of the young man next to the young lady.

They know very well that although the natural spirit body has amazing perception, even if the young lady has the most perfect natural spirit body, it is impossible to find a heaven-level forbidden monster in such a short time.

Especially on the day of the hunting activity, those heaven-level monsters with some rationality will take the initiative to hide.

This competition seems to be a personal show of the young lady, but it is also a manifestation of Mu Zhian's talent.

The two are indeed a good match.

For a while, many elders in the restricted area looked at Mu Zhian with a little more satisfaction in their eyes.

The only shortcoming is that he has been married to the Green Emperor... But that is ultimately "acting" and cannot be counted.

Mu Zhian and Ye Lingxuan came to the elders, raised their hands and bowed, saying: "Elders, the next thing is your internal affairs, Mu will not bother you any more."

Humble, gentle, without the slightest arrogance.

This is the impression of Mu Zhian that the elders present have now.

The head elder smiled and nodded, saying: "Fellow Daoist Mu, please treat the restricted area as your second home, no need to be so polite, after all, you are also a man trusted by the Saint."

When these words came out, many elders looked at the elder in surprise.

The way the other party addressed Mu Zhian, and even his words, were already a statement that he recognized Mu Zhian.

You know, this elder never intervened in anything in the restricted area in the past.

This time, this statement is really on Ye Lingxuan's side.

In this way, the competition for the restricted area position will probably not have any suspense anymore...

"Brother Mu, wait for me to come back to find you." Ye Lingxuan said in a voice transmission.

Mu Zhian nodded slightly, then bowed to everyone, and planned to go to the heavenly palace not far away that was suspended in the air.

"Fellow Daoist Mu, the Qing Emperor, the senior from the Sword Palace, and the reincarnated queen are all there. If you go there, you have to be a little careful." An elder kindly reminded.

For the Jiuzhou cultivators, the Qing Emperor is Mu Zhian's Taoist partner.

But for the Dongzhou high-level people like them, they are very clear that the original marriage between Mu Zhian and the Qing Emperor was just a show.

At present, there are several powerful people sitting in the sky attic, and he is also worried that Mu Zhian will disturb the elegance of several powerful people and cause dissatisfaction on the other side, so he kindly reminded.

"Elder, please rest assured, Mu knows his limits and will not disturb the seniors." Mu Zhian said with a smile.

In fact, since he followed Ye Lingxuan to the outer edge of the restricted area today, he has been worried that the sharks in the fish pond would fight each other... But there has been no movement in the attic for so long, it seems that there should be no problem.

Thinking of this, Mu Zhian took a last look at Ye Lingxuan, and then turned into a stream of light and rushed towards the sky attic.

Behind him, Ye Lingxuan stared at the direction where Mu Zhian left, and her eyebrows could not help but frowned slightly.

For some reason, even though there was a reincarnated queen in the sky attic, the girl still had a bad premonition in her heart.

…

Mu Zhian had just arrived at the attic when he saw a scene that seemed very magical to him.

What a harmonious and friendly scene, the stunning fairy in a green skirt sat opposite the tea table, with wide sleeves fluttering, holding a cup of tea in her hand, and the green gauze skirt covered the snow-white and tight thigh skin, and the beautiful sound of the dress caressing the skin came in the breeze.

Not far from her, Bai Ruoxi, who was in a gentle and charming posture, was twisting a strand of hair with her fingertips. She was wearing a white palace skirt, revealing her round and white shoulders, and her delicate collarbone, which was particularly attractive against the background of her hair.

The front of her clothes seemed to be about to burst.

Not far behind the two of them, a maid with her hair loose was leaning in the corner. She was wearing a yellow skirt, and a pair of thin and white legs were vaguely revealed under the skirt. They were round and elastic, exuding a cold temperament that did not allow strangers to disturb her.

Ye Qian sat obediently beside Yao Meng. When she saw Mu Zhian, her beautiful eyes suddenly lit up.

But after remembering her master's instructions, she quickly restrained herself.

They could actually get along so harmoniously...?

Mu Zhian was a little stunned.

Then, he felt much more relieved.

Although he didn't know what happened, wasn't this exactly the scene he had dreamed of?

Harmony in the fish pond is more important than anything else!

Mu Zhian was about to open his mouth and take the initiative to say hello, when a golden light seemed to light up in the distance, as if it penetrated between heaven and earth.

Then, the depths of the entire restricted area seemed to be lit up with thousands of feet of rosy clouds. Looking out from the attic in the sky, it seemed that steps could be seen emerging in the field of vision, and the breath emitted seemed to contain endless fairy charm. Various visions appeared in front of him at this moment.

The Reincarnation Queen looked up and whispered to herself: "The final test of the Lord of the Forbidden Zone has begun."

She stood up silently and said: "I'll go see the situation over there, young lady."

Mu Zhian thought for a moment after hearing this, and said: "I'll go with you to see it."

The Reincarnation Queen turned her head and looked at the boy expressionlessly, and said silently: "I'm afraid you can't go with me."

Mu Zhian looked at her suspiciously: "Are you underestimating me too much? Although I accompanied Sister Lingxuan to the outer edge of the forbidden zone today, I didn't actually lose much spiritual energy. Moreover, this assessment is related to how much rules she can master in the forbidden zone, so I should naturally go and see..."

"That's not what I meant..."

The Reincarnation Queen silently glanced behind Mu Zhian and said nothing.

Mu Zhian was stunned for a moment, and slowly turned his head to look behind him.

Then, his heart skipped a beat.

It was not until then that he realized that although the atmosphere in front of him looked very harmonious,

but it seemed...

something was not right.
