It turns out, they were the main characters.

After spending these days together, these sect disciples have formed their own little circles, and some of the more outstanding female disciples have attracted many suitors. Therefore, the current scene is not surprising.

Bai Ruoxi walked along the path in a certain direction, intending to find Mu Zhian's good sister to chat and have a heart-to-heart talk.

Just then, a slender, purple-clad figure walked towards them from afar. Her exquisite embroidered shoes touched the ground, and she wore a rather ancient-looking ring on her hand. A faint smile graced her fresh face, which drew the attention of the disciples nearby.

These two girls, one aloof and delicate, the other pure and elegant, would probably be difficult to choose between for a long time.

...This is why Mu Zhian chose "I want them all".

Many disciples in the Glazed Palace knew the two genius girls, since they were both sought after by several senior disciples during the previous selection of inner disciples.

Moreover, the Third Prince had previously caused a great disturbance at Tianhe Garden, and many disciples were somewhat aware of this.

"Sister Bai, what a coincidence! Where are you headed?" Ye Lingxuan's eyebrows curved into crescents. When she noticed Bai Ruoxi's gaze, she also looked up at her and smiled gently.

A hint of surprise flashed across Bai Ruoxi's eyes; she was clearly also surprised by such a coincidence.

She gave a gentle smile and said, "I was just about to go and chat with Lingxuan. Where are you planning to go?"

Ye Lingxuan seemed a little surprised, then smiled sweetly: "What a coincidence, I was also planning to come and find Sister Bai."

The two looked at each other, both seeing surprise in each other's eyes.

Since there were some vacant pavilions nearby, they found a quiet one in the square and sat down, then chatted like close sisters.

As the conversation got more interesting, Ye Lingxuan casually asked, "If I remember correctly, Sister Bai is currently at the second level of the Refinement Spirit Realm, right?"

She sat upright, elegant as a white egret, with a faint smile on her face. Even a proud girl like Bai Ruoxi couldn't help but secretly admire the girl's beauty and temperament.

If they hadn't not been still developing, the title of the most beautiful woman in Tianxuan City in the past might have been between Bai Ruoxi and Ye Lingxuan.

Bai Ruoxi smiled and nodded: "Second Rank of Refining Spirit."

She paused, then her voice suddenly held a hint of concern: "If I remember correctly, it seems that Sister Lingxuan hasn't broken through for quite some time?"

Ye Lingxuan didn't seem to mind, and smiled calmly: "Cultivation is something that can't be rushed."

"But Sister Bai, it seems like it takes her a long time to advance even one rank after reaching the Refining Spirit Realm."

As Ye Lingxuan finished speaking, she suddenly brought up the important point: "Speaking of which, I obtained some pills yesterday, which might be helpful for your future cultivation, sister..."

As she spoke, she noticed that the stunningly beautiful woman was watching her, but she didn't mind. She simply smiled and slowly took out a jade bottle from her storage ring.

To everyone's surprise, Bai Ruoxi's smile vanished, and her delicate brows furrowed slightly on her fair face as she asked indifferently, "The pill you mentioned, is it the Qi Gathering Pill?"

As she said this, she seemed a little unhappy. A vein throbbed slightly on her smooth forehead, and with a flick of her sleeve, an identical jade bottle appeared out of thin air on the table.

Ye Lingxuan's smile froze slightly, and she tilted her head slightly.

"You little Mu-gege, so the Qi-gathering Pill wasn't just given to me yesterday..." Ye Lingxuan pursed her lips slightly, her forced calm smile revealing a hint of sour resentment.

She was deeply moved by how carefully Mu Zhian poured out nine Qi-gathering pills and handed them to her yesterday.

Unexpectedly, Brother Mu had actually given Bai Ruoxi some Qi-gathering pills...

Just as the two were looking at each other in silence, a gentle and refined voice suddenly came from afar:

"Are you two the inner disciples chosen by the head disciple this time?"

The two turned their heads slightly to look at him. He was a handsome young man wearing a black robe. He had a dignified air about him and a gentle smile on his face. In the afternoon sun, he gave off a feeling of being bathed in a spring breeze, attracting the attention of many female disciples nearby.

Among those disciples, there was a boy who didn't seem particularly noticeable.

Ye Yu.

He stared at Luo Yuan in the distance, as if he had realized something, and a hint of anticipation appeared in his eyes.

If Luo Yuan could keep them occupied for a while, it might be the best opportunity for me to change Ruoxi and Lingxuan's impression of me!

Meanwhile, looking at the young man walking towards them, Ye Lingxuan whispered, "His name is Luo Yuan, and he is the inner disciple personally selected by the head of Tianji Peak this time."

There are only eleven spots for inner disciples this time. Each of the nine peaks will select one, and the top two main peaks from the last sect competition will each select one more inner disciple.

And Luo Yuan was the tenth inner disciple to be selected.

With such a background, Luo Yuan was naturally an outstanding figure among the disciples who had just joined the sect. Coupled with his exceptional appearance, he had also gained the favor of many female disciples during this period.

Moreover, it is said that the power behind him is also quite formidable, and he is incredibly generous. If you were to become his Daoist partner in the future, you would probably have no worries about supplies at all.

However, these identities were of no use to the two women.

The two women simply nodded politely to the young man who had abruptly approached them and then ignored him.

At this moment, Luo Yuan strode to the secluded pavilion, glanced at the two female disciples beside him, and said with a bright and friendly smile, "If I remember correctly, you two should be inner disciples of Canghai Peak and Dao Peak?"

Bai Ruoxi maintained her usual aloof demeanor, simply giving a faint "hmm," then glanced at the girl in the purple dress opposite her and smiled, "Sister Lingxuan, shall we go back to Tianhe Garden to discuss what we just talked about?"

Ye Lingxuan, being such a clever girl, naturally understood Bai Ruoxi's meaning immediately. She smiled and said, "That makes sense. Let's go to Tianhe Garden with Sister Bai first."

After speaking, she gave a polite nod to the rather handsome young man beside her, and then got up to leave with Bai Ruoxi.

At this moment, Luo Yuan suddenly spoke up: "You two don't need to be in such a hurry to leave. Although the Ascension Conference is still a year away, a year will pass quickly for cultivators. We disciples who have just entered the sect should chat with each other more and take care of each other."

As he spoke, he took out a jade bottle from his storage ring and said with a smile, "Speaking of which, I have two Jade Complexion Pills that I just bought from Brother Ye a few days ago. If you two are interested, I'll give them to you."

A fifth-grade elixir, the Jade Complexion Pill!

The disciples who were observing this scene from the sidelines were all somewhat moved.

Although they couldn't hear the sounds coming from here, they could roughly guess what was going on from Luo Yuan's actions.

Such pills can normally only be purchased from the Alchemy Pavilion after earning sect contributions while performing missions outside the sect.

If you were to buy it with spirit stones, one Jade Complexion Pill would probably cost around 30,000. Because of the allure of the Jade Complexion Pill to women, even if the price were to rise to 40,000, there would probably still be people willing to buy it.

If you were to give away this pill directly... most of the female disciples would probably find it hard to refuse.

Ye Yu, standing in the crowd, unconsciously frowned.

He never expected that the Jade Complexion Pill he had sold to Luo Yuan would be used by Luo Yuan to please his sister and Bai Ruoxi.

If I accept this Jade Beauty Pill, I'll probably be harassed by Luo Yuan endlessly... and with his outstanding talent and good looks, he might actually win the heart of some girl...

But if we make a move now, it seems unlikely to leave a lasting impression on them.

We should wait... until they are entangled before making a move; that would be the most effective time... Ye Yu thought to himself, his eyes fixed on the pavilion in the distance amidst the crowd.

At this moment, a disciple from a sect in the crowd suddenly pointed to the sky and exclaimed in surprise:

"Look, isn't one of the senior sisters or elders coming to the Glazed Palace?"

Those staying in the Glazed Palace were all newly joined disciples. Apart from Bai Ruoxi and Wei Mengrou, the others were all at the Qi Refining stage.

This level of cultivation makes it impossible to fly on a sword, so it's no wonder that when the disciples saw this figure silently flying in mid-air, their first thought was of their elders in the sect.

Ye Lingxuan and Bai Ruoxi had obviously noticed that someone was flying towards them on a sword in the distance, but they were naturally not interested in such things. They politely declined the Jade Complexion Pill that Luo Yuan offered and then prepared to leave.

Just then, a frivolous voice came from behind:

"Why are you two running so fast? Come play with me for a bit."

Such a frivolous tone naturally made Ye Lingxuan frown, her eyes filled with displeasure.

Bai Ruoxi, standing to the side, also frowned slightly.

Luo Yuan narrowed his eyes slightly and glanced at the boy who had quietly approached from behind.

Are there any colleagues here...?

When he saw the young man walk up behind the two women, he immediately reached out and grabbed their delicate hands.

Bai Ruoxi's eyes suddenly sharpened, and she almost drew her bronze sword.

However, as soon as he turned his head, he saw Mu Zhian, who had just landed on the black sword.

The voice just now was clearly Mu Zhian deliberately altering his voice using spiritual energy to tease them.

Ye Lingxuan also turned her head to look over. When she saw the young man in front of her and noticed that many disciples around her were looking at her, she couldn't help but feel a little shy. However, she did not break free from Mu Zhian's hand, but just lowered her eyes slightly.

If you look closely, you'll notice that Ye Lingxuan's originally calm and pretty face seems to have a faint blush, but when she inadvertently looks up at Mu Zhian, there seems to be a hint of resentment in her eyes.

Hmm... something's up?

Mu Zhian immediately noticed the resentment in Ye Lingxuan's eyes. As a qualified fishpond owner, he naturally realized what was going on.

Although he had just been to the library and didn't know what had happened there, seeing Ye Lingxuan and Bai Ruoxi together... he could guess what was going on.

Whether it was Ruoxi or Lingxuan who took the initiative to show off, Mu Zhian fell into a brief state of thought.

The shyness displayed by the two naturally aroused a hint of jealousy in the eyes of many disciples present when they looked at Mu Zhi'an.

If it were just Bai Ruoxi, it wouldn't be so bad, but Mu Zhian clearly intends to have both of them... Yet neither of them said anything, which makes one a little jealous.

Luo Yuan, standing to the side, also frowned slightly, but still maintained the calm smile of a refined gentleman. He cupped his hands and said with a smile, "I have heard of Young Master Mu's great name before. Seeing you today, you are indeed handsome and elegant."

Mu Zhian was taken aback for a moment, and looked the young man up and down a few times.

Who should I send this to?

Then, noticing Luo Yuan's intentional or unintentional glances at Ye Lingxuan and Bai Ruoxi, she understood slightly.

I just went to the library, how come someone is targeting my wife and sister again?

"My name is Luo Yuan, an inner disciple of Tianji Peak." Seemingly noticing the doubt in Mu Zhian's eyes, Luo Yuan spoke with a smile.

Mu Zhian cupped his hands in greeting and said, "It's a pleasure to meet you. I am Mu Zhian, and I have heard of Brother Luo's great name before."

Seeing that Mu Zhian was so easy to talk to, Luo Yuan smiled and glanced at the two girls behind Mu Zhian, then transmitted his voice, "Young Master Mu, aren't you going a bit too far? Since you already have such a charming Daoist partner as Miss Bai, why not leave some soup for your brother?"

Mu Zhian looked at him suspiciously: "Brother Luo, what do you mean...?"

"Young Master Mu, why don't you introduce Miss Ye Lingxuan to me... Of course, I won't treat you unfairly either. These two Jade Complexion Pills on the table are yours."

The two Jade Complexion Pills together are worth a total of seventy to eighty thousand spirit stones, which is something that most sect disciples might not be able to accumulate even after saving for a year or two.

To everyone's surprise, Mu Zhian simply shook his head firmly, stared at Luo Yuan, and said:

"Brother Luo, Lingxuan is my most important sister. Don't try to taint our relationship with pills or anything like that! Even if you offered me 100,000, no... even if it were a million or ten million spirit stones, I would never leave my sister's side!"

He deliberately emphasized the word "sister" to indirectly convey to Bai Ruoxi that "she is just my sister," thus preventing Bai Ruoxi from turning evil.

These powerful words caused Ye Lingxuan to slightly raise her head and look at the boy next door. A ripple stirred in her heart, and her original dissatisfaction with Mu Zhian's dual-thread operation turned into a deep tenderness.

Although I didn't hear Luo Yuan's telepathic message to Mu Zhi'an, judging from Mu Zhi'an's words, it's clear that Luo Yuan proposed some kind of deal to Mu Zhi'an, and the other party in that deal is very likely her...

Mu Zhian's firm refusal naturally made people feel very safe.

Luo Yuan stared intently at Mu Zhian's sanctimonious appearance, his expression darkening slightly.
