It turns out, they were the main characters.

After chatting for a while and finishing their tea, Mu Zhian took the second-grade formation and made an excuse to leave.

As we left Shaole Garden and approached the library, a slender, beautiful figure in purple came into view. The sunlight made her face appear exceptionally soft, and her skirt swayed gently in the wind, revealing glimpses of her snow-white legs.

Seemingly noticing Mu Zhi'an's gaze, she turned her head slightly and smiled sweetly, "Young Master Mu."

Mu Zhian walked over with a smile and said, "There's no one else here, so don't call me Young Master Mu. It sounds too formal."

Ye Lingxuan hesitated for a moment, her cherry lips parted slightly, and she whispered, "...Brother Mu."

That's more like it... Mu Zhian smiled gently, then glanced at her side and asked in confusion, "Where's Qian'er?"

"Master just said that he would expand her meridians, so she will be meditating and cultivating at Dao Peak for the next two days."

Ye Lingxuan hesitated for a moment, looking at Mu Zhian's handsome profile, and said, "Master said that the appointment at the Holy Temple can temporarily bring down good fortune. Although there is a time limit, it is also beneficial for future cultivation."

As she explained this indirectly, the beautiful and refined young woman blushed slightly, raised her eyelids, and gazed at Mu Zhi'an with her moist, peach-blossom eyes, saying:

"If we're free tomorrow, shall we go to the Pilgrimage Temple to see the peach blossoms together?"

Chapter 133 A date, a date, and a damn date! 3K

"Do you have an appointment tomorrow morning?"

Seeing that Mu Zhian remained silent, Ye Lingxuan tilted her head slightly and looked at Mu Zhian with a puzzled expression.

However, his usually calm expression now seemed to carry a hint of unease.

Ultimately, no matter how mature Ye Lingxuan appears, she is still just a teenage girl in the prime of her youth, and she will feel a little uneasy about taking the initiative to invite someone on a date.

I don't have a date tomorrow, but I'm afraid I'll get one once I get back... Mu Zhian looked at the beautiful girl and tried his best to show a gentle smile like a friendly older brother next door, saying, "I'll pick you up tomorrow."

As I say this, I feel inexplicably worried.

Logically, to be on the safe side, we should decline Ye Lingxuan's invitation at this moment. After all, Bai Ruoxi was also present and heard the Dao Peak Chief talk about the rumors about the Pilgrimage Hall. It would be impossible for her not to be interested.

Ultimately, Bai Ruoxi had already extended an invitation to him once when he went to the Pilgrimage Hall to participate in the selection of inner disciples not long ago.

This matter needs to be resolved as soon as possible.

Hmm... I'll go with Lingxuan tomorrow, Ruoxi the day after, and Qian'er should finish her seclusion the day after that.

If possible, you could try inviting Sister Mengrou the day after tomorrow... Even if she rejects you, you'll still get a disdainful look, so it's a win-win situation.

A good, caring man is someone who understands how to consider the feelings of every girl and gives them the same warmth.

It was tiring, but it was worth it for them.

"Why do you seem a little unhappy?" Ye Lingxuan suddenly hesitated and asked, "Did I cause you any trouble?"

Mu Zhian snapped out of her reverie and smiled, "I was just thinking about what I could do to make you happy tomorrow, since it's my first time going on a date with someone else."

The clever girl rolled her eyes at Mu Zhian and scoffed, expressing her disdain.

"What are you 'heh heh' for? Call me Brother Mu." Mu Zhian gently pinched Ye Lingxuan's high, delicate nose.

Noticing the gazes of many disciples nearby, Ye Lingxuan gently brushed his hand away, her delicate brows furrowing slightly in displeasure: "Don't do this kind of thing here."

"Does that mean we can just go back?" Mu Zhian discovered the blind spot.

Ye Lingxuan glanced at him sideways, feeling somewhat helpless towards this mischievous neighbor.

The two walked along the suspension bridge paved with golden talismans and unknowingly returned to the Glazed Palace.

Mu Zhian escorted Ye Lingxuan back to her room. Looking at the empty hall, he pondered for a moment and asked with concern, "Are you used to resting alone?"

"If you're not used to it, I can stay and keep you company—"

Noticing the tenderness in Mu Zhian's eyes, Ye Lingxuan pursed her lips, her heart stirred for no reason, but she gently pushed his shoulder and said, "No need, you can go back first."

If we let him stay here tonight, who knows what he might do?

She wasn't ready for that.

Moreover, if she were to be intimate with Brother Mu in this villa, she would feel somewhat guilty... After all, being here would always remind her of Qian'er.

Thinking back to how she had repeatedly reminded Ye Qian to be careful of Mu Zhi'an, but now she herself... Ye Lingxuan's eyes were filled with complicated emotions.

"In that case, I'll head back now. Remember to get some rest tonight. Cultivation is important, but you also need to take care of your health," Mu Zhian said softly, gazing at Ye Lingxuan.

Ye Lingxuan gave a reserved "hmm," and Mu Zhian lingered in the side hall for a few more chats with Ye Lingxuan to cultivate their relationship before finally bidding her farewell.

Upon returning to Tianhe Garden, Mu Zhian went straight into the study, then sat by the window and opened his personal profile.

On the personal interface, five achievements are clearly displayed.

"There's absolutely no mistake. Lingxuan's innate spiritual body and Ruoxi's sword immortal protection have both become my achievements..." Mu Zhian muttered to himself.

I just don't know what the word "pseudo" means after these two achievements... Could it mean that I only obtained a part of their physique?

Mu Zhian closed his eyes slightly and could clearly feel that the spiritual energy around him seemed to be much more active than before.

He was even able to control a portion of the surrounding spiritual energy and temporarily draw it into the cauldron for his own use.

"This physique is ridiculously strong..." Mu Zhian thought to himself in amazement.

This is like a battle with someone else. When your spiritual energy is already insufficient, you can use the special physique of being born with a spiritual body to force a second burst of energy... In battles between people of the same level or even those of higher levels, this is an essential powerful physique for the protagonist.

Moreover, the speed of cultivation, and even the enhancements brought by this innate spiritual body, are also very high when it comes to alchemy.

The Sword Immortal's Protection is even simpler and more direct. This achievement gives him an innate affinity for "swords," and he can also use some of the power of Bai Ruoxi's bronze sword.

"It seems that the closer my relationship with these girls is, the more achievements I might gain...?" Mu Zhian made such a guess.

If that's the case, it would perfectly align with his current path of living off a woman.

I was originally planning to find a rich woman to have dinner with, but the achievements on this screen are practically free.

"I wonder if I'll unlock more achievements if I get closer to my senior sister in the future..." Mu Zhi'an fell into deep thought.

"And the same goes for Sister Mengrou. If they can all achieve something, even just getting a portion of the physique would be enough."

Mu Zhian stared at his personal profile and fell into a brief moment of contemplation.

After a moment, he gently shook his head, dispelling these thoughts.

In short, we must take things one step at a time. The most urgent task now is to plan our dates for tomorrow, the day after tomorrow, and even the day after that.

For the next three days, he only has one thing to do: date, date, and more damn dating!

Fortunately, Qian'er is still in seclusion, otherwise tomorrow would be really difficult...

After all, it's not very realistic to take both sisters on a date at the same time right now.

Thinking about this, he took out a second-grade array from his storage ring.

Second-grade formation: Hundred Birds Linked Formation.

He opened the jade slip, and in an instant, the array and text within it were all absorbed into Mu Zhian's mind. The content of the array was extremely simple, consisting of only a text description and a method for setting up the array.

But for some reason, Mu Zhian realized the possibilities that this seemingly simple formation represented, and how many formations it could generate.

Overall, he looked at the formation and felt he had learned it, but at the same time, he felt he hadn't learned it at all.

Mu Zhian's feelings were somewhat complicated.

However, he was not discouraged. After all, formations and cultivation techniques are different. This kind of thing cannot be rushed. It requires slow understanding and comprehension. It cannot be mastered overnight.

Master Yan also said that if you have any questions, you can go to her.

Mu Zhian put away the jade slip and stood up to stretch his limbs.

Boom!

At that moment, a faint rumble of thunder flashed across the distant horizon.

Mu Zhian looked up and saw dark clouds gathering in a certain direction within the Liangyi Sect, with lightning surging in the leaden clouds and thunderous roars echoing incessantly.

It is the Tribulation of Elixir.

The direction of the calamity seemed to be Liangyi Peak.

"Someone is refining pills inside Liangyi Peak...?" Mu Zhian muttered to himself.

Is it the senior sister or the sect leader?

Mu Zhian quickly looked away.

Instead of thinking about this, you should just ask directly next time.

Ruoxi and Mengrou haven't returned yet, but Miss Linglong is still in Tianhe Garden... We need to keep in touch with her relationships from time to time.

I definitely have to hold onto Senior Lin Ling's long legs tightly.

Mu Zhian first spent an hour preparing some food before arriving at Lin Ling's room. He gently knocked on the door and said, "Senior Lin Ling, I've prepared some snacks for you. May I come in?"

There was no sound or response from inside the room.

Mu Zhian knocked on the door again, and then quietly pushed open the door. The room was empty, and the silver-haired beauty who usually sat in the room in a daze was not there.

A few words were written on the table: I'm hungry, I'm going out for a bit.

"So it went out to find food on its own because no one was feeding it...?" Mu Zhian silently placed the freshly steamed meat buns on the table, then turned and left the room.

Looking up at the sky, he sighed with a touch of loneliness.

Although Ruoxi and the others will be back in a while, I'm actually a little bored right now.

But it's good, it's a good time to think about how to create a wonderful memory for Lingxuan tomorrow.

With this in mind, Mu Zhian returned to his study and decided to make some notes to confirm the action plan.

However, as soon as I opened the study door, I saw a paper crane that had somehow landed on the desk.

Previously, Tianxuan City and Liangyi Sect were some distance apart, but now, the speed of sending messages by paper crane is much, much more efficient.

You can tell from the scent that this is a paper crane sent by my senior sister.

"Finally, you've deigned to reply to me..." Mu Zhian couldn't help but smile, walked gracefully to the table and sat down, glancing up at the horizon not far away.

The tribulation clouds that were just in the direction of Liangyi Peak have disappeared, which means that the alchemy has ended.

"I'll take this opportunity to ask my senior sister if she was refining pills just now..." Mu Zhi'an unfolded the paper crane.

"Congratulations on becoming an inner disciple. Senior Sister Yan rarely takes the initiative to recruit disciples. Since she has chosen you as an inner disciple, she must think highly of your talent and strength."

My senior sister's information network is really impressive...
