It turns out, they were the main characters.

Ye Lingxuan, dressed in a purple dress, was sitting under the pavilion, chatting and drinking tea with her mother and aunt Ye Siyu.

"After this forbidden zone inheritance, does Sister Lingxuan still plan to return to the Liangyi Sect to continue her cultivation?" Ye Siyu, with her brown hair and wearing a dark-colored long dress, rested her chin on her hand, her bright eyes casually sizing up Ye Lingxuan.

When no one else was around, Ye Siyu became much more relaxed. She sat with her legs crossed, the dark skirt contrasting sharply with her fair thighs, making her extremely alluring.

Ye Lingxuan nodded reservedly and smiled, "This trip back to the forbidden area is only for the purpose of receiving the inheritance. Within the Liangyi Sect, I can spar with disciples from all over the Nine Provinces, which is a rare opportunity."

Behind the penalty area, he smiled gently at his daughter and said, "Your talent and hard work are evident to your father and me, but you should relax occasionally and not push yourself too hard."

Ye Lingxuan nodded slightly, but before she could speak, a drawn-out voice came from the side: "That's what you say, but isn't it because of Brother Mu that you want to return to the Liangyi Sect?"

Ye Siyu deliberately emphasized the words "Brother Mu" in order to tease Ye Lingxuan.

Ye Lingxuan blushed slightly, but quickly regained her composure and said, "Brother Mu is only one reason, not the whole reason."

"That's what you say, but didn't you even have your brother Mu come back with you when you returned to the forbidden area?" Ye Siyu said with a light laugh.

"Sister Siyu!" Ye Lingxuan bit her lower lip lightly in displeasure and gently pushed Ye Siyu's arm.

"Alright, alright, Siyu, you should say less." The person in the restricted area interrupted at the right moment.

"This girl is shy. Although it's the truth, it's best to keep these words to yourself." The woman behind the forbidden area maintained a dignified demeanor, but her smile carried a hint of teasing.

Ye Lingxuan stomped her foot lightly in anger and whispered, "Mother!"

"Brother Mu's main purpose in coming back this time wasn't me..." she muttered softly.

Upon hearing this, Ye Siyu's eyes flickered slightly. Recalling the existence she had seen ten days ago when she scanned Mu Zhi'an with her spiritual sense, she suddenly asked, "Could it be that Mu Zhi'an came to the forbidden area because of the being in his innate furnace?"

As she spoke, her gaze was fixed on the area behind the restricted zone, her beautiful amber eyes filled with curiosity.

The woman behind the Forbidden Zone did not hide anything from her younger sister, nodding slightly: "That's right, one of his purposes in coming to the Forbidden Zone was to use the Reincarnation Water to reshape the Azure Emperor's immortal body."

"Qingdi..."

Ye Siyu subconsciously looked up at the forbidden area and said, "The person inside Mu Zhian is the Azure Emperor?!"

Ye Siyu had heard of the name Qingdi long ago.

She is one of the few supreme experts in the world, and also the first Holy Maiden of Yaochi Holy Land.

Although I have never met her, it is said that the fairy is as untouchable as a snow lotus on a snowy mountain peak. Ordinary people would find it difficult to even catch a glimpse of her beauty, let alone have a deep conversation with her.

However, for some unknown reason, the Azure Emperor mysteriously disappeared, and no one knows where she went.

Unexpectedly, she ended up residing in Mu Zhian's body?

The being within the innate furnace at that time was the Azure Emperor...?

When Ye Siyu thought of this, she couldn't help but feel secretly fortunate.

When she secretly used her spiritual sense to check Mu Zhi'an's physical condition using her special physique, if the Azure Emperor hadn't held back, she would probably be...

"Brother Mu returned to the forbidden area this time for this very reason," Ye Lingxuan said.

Then, she paused and continued, "Speaking of which, it seems that Senior Qingdi can reshape his immortal body in ten days, and today seems to be the tenth day...?"

Boom!

Shortly after he finished speaking, a thunderous sound resounded under the pavilion.

Immediately afterwards, a sound like a thunder dragon exploded across the restricted area.

At this moment, many of the old monsters who were in seclusion in the forbidden zone opened their eyes.

They were initially shocked and furious at who dared to wake them while they were in seclusion. Then they looked up in the direction of the Reincarnation Pool. After a while, their shock and anger subsided, and they withdrew their gaze and silently returned to their secret chamber to continue their meditation and cultivation.

Looking up from behind the forbidden zone, he suddenly said, "The Tribulation of the Physical Body."

"Physical tribulation...?" Ye Siyu repeated, looking up towards the Reincarnation Pool. "So, the Azure Emperor's immortal body has already been reconstructed?"

“If that’s the case, then Brother Mu should be there too…” Ye Lingxuan’s eyes flickered slightly, and then she stood up.

"Mother, Sister Siyu, I'll go take a look first."

After nodding slightly behind the penalty area, Ye Siyu stood up and smiled with narrowed eyes, "I'll go with you."

"I have never seen a physical tribulation in the Dao Integration Realm before."

As Ye Lingxuan and Ye Siyu left Xuanfeng Palace, the person behind the forbidden area looked up at them and at the vast lightning tribulation in the distance, a hint of doubt in their eyes.

Logically speaking, the Azure Emperor should only have a body now, without a cauldron...

That's where the problem comes in.

How can the Azure Emperor, who has no spiritual energy, withstand this tribulation of lightning?

It seems the Azure Emperor must have been prepared for this long time...

But how exactly do we do it?

He silently looked up into the distance from behind the penalty area, a hint of doubt in his eyes.

……

At this moment, a considerable number of disciples from forbidden zones had already gathered in the mountains outside the Reincarnation Pool.

In addition to the disciples of the forbidden area, many elders were also alarmed and were now walking on air, gazing in the direction of the Reincarnation Pool.

Cultivators have excellent eyesight and even hearing. If they wish, they can see things roughly even from a great distance.

Previously, the fairy in the green dress used Mu Zhian's body to create a barrier in front of the mountains and forests outside the Reincarnation Pool, isolating everything from the outside world. However, now that the tribulation of lightning has descended, the barrier has also disappeared, and thus the scene in front of the Reincarnation Pool has come into people's view.

"Who exactly is that beautiful woman in the green dress? I don't think I've ever seen her before," someone murmured.

“She shouldn’t be from the forbidden area… If there were such a beautiful fairy in the forbidden area, I couldn’t possibly have no recollection of her,” a disciple beside him said.

Many disciples from the forbidden area nodded subconsciously, agreeing with what this person said.

If there really were such a fairy in a green dress in the forbidden area, she would definitely have popularity on par with Ye Lingxuan, and she wouldn't remain unknown forever.

"Could it be because of this fairy in the green dress that the clan leader forbade us from approaching the Reincarnation Pool?" someone couldn't help but speculate.

"That's right! This fairy in the green dress must have been injured before, so she's using the Reincarnation Pool to recuperate. She might even know the clan leader!"

This speculation caused everyone present to feel their hearts race involuntarily, and their gazes toward the fairy in the green dress became even more intense.

If this fairy truly knows the Lord of the Forbidden Zone, her strength is likely on par with his!

After all, according to what the elder just said, even those at the Void Returning Realm have never seen such a tribulation!

"But why is Mu Zhian there too...?" someone suddenly asked.

The lively discussion that had just taken place fell silent for a moment.

The same thought popped into many people's minds.

Yes... If this tribulation is the tribulation of the fairy in the green dress, then what is Mu Zhian doing there?

"Her aura is somewhat unstable. She was likely just a wisp of spirit hiding inside someone's body before," an elder suddenly said quietly, making a guess.

This speculation directly caused a change in the way these disciples looked at Mu Zhi'an.

They're not fools; it would be strange if they couldn't guess after the elders explained it this way.

Why is Mu Zhian standing in front of the Reincarnation Pool?

It wasn't that he sneaked in or anything, but rather that the fairy in the green dress was already inside Mu Zhi'an's body.

Mu Zhian's purpose in coming to the forbidden zone, as well as the previous conversation between the Lord of the Forbidden Zone and Mu Zhian, may not be entirely related to Ye Lingxuan.

Healing the fairy in the green dress was likely one of Mu Zhi'an's goals!

"This tribulation is quite different from the tribulation of ordinary cultivators. She truly is the Empress..." another old monster said with emotion, while looking at the fairy in the green dress with deep respect.

In this world, no one can see a powerful expert at the Dao Integration Realm without feeling awe.

...Except for a few LSPs, such as Maki Chian.

However, even Mu Zhian had struggled with his thoughts and will for a long time before he could barely suppress his awe of the fairy in the green dress.

"Speaking of which, isn't the fairy in the green dress about to undergo tribulation? Why is Mu Zhi'an approaching her?" someone suddenly said.

The difficulty of a cultivator's tribulation lightning is completely different for two people and for one person. Isn't Mu Zhi'an worried about any problems arising from his rash approach to the fairy in the green dress at this time?

This time, the elders also remained silent.

They didn't understand what Mu Zhian meant by doing this either.

Not far behind the group, Ye Lingxuan, standing on her aunt's flying sword, had just arrived at the forest in front of the Reincarnation Pool.

She looked up, gazing through the dense forest towards the distant Reincarnation Pool.

At this moment, Mu Zhian was walking towards the fairy in the green dress, and had unknowingly approached her.

The fairy in the green dress floated in mid-air, her head slightly lowered, gazing tenderly at the boy, her body radiating a faint silver glow, as if she were truly a fairy descending to earth.

"Has he gone mad? How could he get close to the Azure Emperor while she was undergoing her tribulation?!" Ye Siyu said in disbelief in a low voice.

Ye Lingxuan's eyes flickered slightly; she, too, couldn't understand.

At this moment, Mu Zhian had already arrived at the Reincarnation Pool.

He looked up at the woman in front of him and hesitated, "What should I do now?"

The fairy in the green dress spoke in a clear, melodious voice: "Close your eyes."

"?" Mu Zhian typed a question mark.

"Just close it, hurry up," she urged softly.

"The tribulation lightning is about to descend; there's no time left."

Mu Zhian closed his eyes slightly.

The fairy in the green dress stepped forward, her snow-white jade feet touching the water.

Then, under the gazes of the disciples of the forbidden zone and Ye Lingxuan, he leaned down slightly, placed one hand on the back of Mu Zhian's head, and gently pressed his soft, slightly cool cherry lips against Mu Zhian's lips.

Outside the forest, the previously lively discussions suddenly fell silent.

The mountains and forests outside the Reincarnation Pool were deathly silent.

At this moment, under the pitch-black sky, the faint rumble of thunder illuminated everyone's blank faces.
