It turns out, they were the main characters.

Shang Yanfei opened her palm, revealing a pure and flawless snow lotus.

It was the snow lotus that Mu Zhian had intended to give to Lan Mulian through the paper crane that day!

The sect leader of the Two Elements Sect is indeed my pen pal...

Even though he had already guessed this possibility, Mu Zhian was still somewhat shocked when he heard the other party admit it in person.

This great white shark... I can't keep it in my fishpond for the time being... If I really did keep it in the fishpond, it would probably eat me, the fishpond owner, one day.

Upon learning this fact, Mu Zhian felt both disappointed and inexplicably moved.

This is probably what they mean by "the things you can't have are always the most alluring."

The two finished a cup of tea without realizing it, and Mu Zhian finally decided to get up and take his leave.

What's sealed inside the pilgrimage hall has nothing to do with him, a cultivator at the Qi Refining stage.

After all, he can't affect the overall situation.

The sect leader knew exactly what to do.

As for other matters, such as how to become an inner disciple... Mu Zhi'an would not ask this sect leader for help.

Although he didn't mind being a kept man, the sect leader's level was too high. If he accepted too many favors from the other party before he had fully built up goodwill, it would make the emotional status between the two parties unequal, and make him think, "Is he pursuing me for some benefit?"

It will be very difficult at that time.

As Mu Zhian was about to leave the pavilion, he paused slightly, turned his head to look over, and smiled, "This junior's status is humble, and I am far from being comparable to the sect leader. However, everything said in the paper crane was true."

"Those paper cranes of yours, were they all written for my disciple?" Shang Yanfei asked with a hint of teasing.

"It was just a coincidence that it ended up in my hands."

Mu Zhian smiled warmly and said softly:

"It was indeed a coincidence, but perhaps it was a destined coincidence?"

……

Under Shang Yanfei's watchful gaze, Mu Zhian left the pavilion in a cheerful mood.

Under normal circumstances, he would not have spoken to the sect leader like that.

But the other party had already replied to so many of his emails, some even with a hint of ambiguity... In this situation, it meant that he could take the initiative.

Of course, you have to control the level of affection appropriately... If you accidentally manage to win her over, Mu Zhian won't be overjoyed, but rather a little worried.

After all, it's a great white shark; if you raise it in a fishpond, it will eat people.

Let's take it slow and proceed step by step... Mu Zhian pondered this matter, waited for a moment outside the pavilion, and saw a woman in a white dress slowly floating towards him from afar, stepping on clouds.

"Senior Sister," Mu Zhian called out.

Lan Mulian glanced at the now empty pavilion and asked, "What did Master ask you?"

"Some things that can't be said right now," Mu Zhian said.

Lan Mulian frowned slightly, seemingly unhappy, but did not press the matter further.

She changed the subject: "Are you confident about getting a position as an inner disciple?"

Upon hearing this, Mu Zhian immediately looked worried and sighed, "To be honest, it's quite difficult."

He was indeed admitted through a special recommendation program, but it only meant he was admitted to the Liangyi Sect. Whether he could become an inner disciple depended on his own abilities.

"Senior Sister, does your Liangyi Peak still accept people? How about I become your disciple?" Mu Zhian suddenly said with a smile.

Lan Mulian smiled faintly: "You still have the mind to joke, so you seem quite confident."

Mu Zhian shook his head and sighed helplessly: "I wasted too much time in the past, and now I can't improve my cultivation level in a short period of time."

“If you had no other choice, you wouldn’t be looking so relaxed.” Lan Mulian glanced at him sideways, waiting for his answer.

Senior sister really knows me inside and out. This woman is too smart... Mu Zhian paused for a moment and continued, "A Qi Refining Rank 5 is not enough to become an inner disciple."

"However... I am an art student."

It's unrealistic to expect to join the nine main peaks directly as an inner disciple, since so many people are vying for a single spot, and the competition is fierce.

However... besides the nine main peaks, there are also some 'neutral' forces.

To put it simply, you don't necessarily have to become the head of one of the nine main peaks to become an inner disciple.

...There is a simpler way.

"How did you feel after meeting your master this time?"

On the way back, Lan Mulian, riding on a cloud, suddenly asked a question.

She was very big and fair-skinned with a great figure. The only problem was that she was too intimidating and difficult for ordinary people to handle. Mu Zhian thought to himself, and respectfully said, "Sect Master is exceptionally elegant and charming. He is a person worthy of respect."

Shang Yanfei is indeed an extraordinary woman, but unfortunately, Mu Zhian doesn't know whether it's her strength or her own temperament, but this woman doesn't seem like a target he can currently win over.

Even if we can achieve it in the future, it won't be easy to manage.

Lan Mulian nodded slightly, her voice clear and melodious: "She rarely sees people. There must be some reason for her meeting with you this time. Since it's inconvenient for her to say, I won't ask."

"However, if she gives you any instructions, remember to keep them in mind."

Senior Sister is indeed still very concerned about what the Sect Master said to me, and is trying to get information out of me... Mu Zhian nodded slightly and respectfully replied, "Yes."

Led by Lan Mulian, the two unknowingly returned to the Liuli Palace.

After Mu Zhian jumped down from the cloud, he suddenly remembered something, looked up at his aloof and noble senior sister, and asked, "By the way, senior sister, I just picked two peach blossoms at the Pilgrimage Hall a couple of days ago. I hope they're alright?"

Why pick peach blossoms when you're perfectly fine... Lan Mulian smiled and said, "As long as you don't pick all the peach blossoms, no one will say anything."

"In the end, the Pilgrimage Hall is just a place for Daoist couples to chat during their daily practice breaks. Besides you, other people do it occasionally too."

Although she wanted to know what Mu Zhi'an was up to by picking peach blossoms, Lan Mulian didn't speak out of politeness. She glanced at Mu Zhi'an, who was standing on the golden talisman bridge, and said, "Cultivate well these two days and don't waste your talent."

He should at least be at the eighth level of Qi Refining by now, but he is only at the fifth level. This is the price he paid for indulging in beautiful women in the past.

Lan Mulian was about to leave when she thought of this.

Just then, Mu Zhian suddenly called out to her, "Senior Sister, wait a minute!"

Lan Mulian turned her head and saw Mu Zhian walking up in small steps. Then, she carefully took out a long and narrow wooden box from her storage ring.

"This is...?" Lan Mulian's eyes flickered slightly, somewhat puzzled.

She took the small wooden box, slightly pulled it open, and a pink petal hidden inside came into view. It was placed in the lustrous soil and nourished by the soil, so it showed no signs of withering.

“Although these peach blossoms are everywhere in the Pilgrimage Hall, I still hope that Senior Sister can accept them.” Mu Zhi’an looked at Lan Mulian’s veiled face and said earnestly.

"Brother Mu, are you perhaps trying to say that Peach Blossom is very similar to me?" Lan Mulian closed the lid of the wooden box again, looking at him with a slight smile.

“The snow lotus represents Senior Sister’s reserved exterior, while the peach blossom is actually Senior Sister’s heart.” Mu Zhi’an sighed softly. “Of course I know that Senior Sister may not believe me now, but even so, I still want to give it to Senior Sister instead of letting it gather dust in my storage ring.”

When Mu Zhian finished speaking, he looked up at Lan Mulian and said, "Senior Sister, may I see your face?"

The sudden "attack" made Lan Mulian hesitate slightly, and she remained silent.

Mu Zhian looked up at Lan Mulian and said softly, "If I could see Senior Sister's face, I would be even more motivated to fight for the spot of an inner disciple."

Seeing that Lan Mulian did not respond, Mu Zhian sighed softly and turned to return to the Liuli Palace.

Just then, a clear, aloof voice suddenly came from behind: "If you can become an inner disciple in the future, I will give you a gift."

Mu Zhian subconsciously turned his head to look, and Lan Mulian removed the thin veil from her face.

In that instant, even the peach blossom in her hand seemed to pale in comparison.

Mu Zhian stared intently at Lan Mulian's beautiful face. Although he had already guessed from his imagination that she looked similar to Fei Ying, when he actually saw her face, his gaze was still uncontrollably drawn to her.

Perhaps because she had just received someone's advances, or perhaps because she had taken off her veil, the usually aloof and unapproachable senior sister now had two faint blushes on her beautiful face.

This is more like a girl. Usually, she always maintains the noble and reserved demeanor of a senior sister, not like a cute girl at all. This is perfect... Mu Zhian thought to herself.

She possesses both a cool and aloof demeanor and a touch of feminine charm.

If there really is such a thing as a beautiful woman, she would probably be someone like Lan Mulian.

Mu Zhian clasped his hands in a fist and said, "Senior Sister, I will work hard to become an inner disciple for your sake."

Lan Mulian parted her cherry lips slightly and said, "It's not for me, it should be for yourself. Your purpose was wrong from the beginning."

A beautiful and graceful lady is sought after by gentlemen; how can that be considered going down the wrong path? Mu Zhian gazed into Lan Mulian's cold eyes and said, "Senior sister, I'm going back to meditate and cultivate."

Lan Mulian nodded politely and watched Mu Zhian leave before gently stroking the storage ring on her right hand.

Her storage ring contained the medicinal herbs and prescription for the Advanced Grade Pill...

This pill can advance one rank by taking one when one is in the Qi Refining stage, but it can only be used once.

It suits him quite well.

However, giving someone such an expensive gift inevitably made him feel like he was being given charity...

A man's pride can always erupt in strange ways.

However, if he could become an inner disciple, Mu Zhian would naturally not refuse him anymore.

Lan Mulian rode the clouds, turned around and left the Liuli Palace, flying towards the back mountain of Liangyi Peak.

……

In the villa.

Mu Zhian was naturally unaware of what his senior sister was thinking. After returning to the small house, he went to a certain room and gently knocked on the door.

"Senior Lin Ling."

The door was quietly pushed open a crack, and through that crack, a pair of bright red eyes were secretly observing Mu Zhi'an.

After confirming the other person's identity, he quietly opened the door.

Mu Zhian entered the room and vaguely smelled the aroma of meat filling the room. He subconsciously glanced at Lin Ling sitting at the table.

She lay on the table with a calm expression, her ample breasts pressing against the surface, her eyes appearing somewhat vacant, clearly lost in thought.

Her silver hair cascaded down to her waist, and she wore no shoes; beneath her silk skirt, her delicate white feet swayed gently.

Hmm, this one is even more heavyweight, her bust size is just as lewd as Ruoxi's... Mu Zhian looked at Lin Ling lying on the table, but quickly realized the key point:
