It turns out, they were the main characters.

"If the Azure Emperor reunites with the cauldron this time, wouldn't Mu Zhi'an have no worries in the future?" someone suddenly said with a touch of emotion, and the look in Mu Zhi'an's eyes as he left revealed an undisguised jealousy.

Once the Azure Emperor reunites with the cauldron, there will be another empress in the world... With such a powerful figure protecting him, who would dare to lay a hand on Mu Zhi'an?

"The premise is that the Azure Emperor can condense the cauldron, right? Mu Zhi'an may have been chosen by the Azure Emperor to help her condense the cauldron, but is the spiritual energy of the Refining God Realm really enough?" A questioning voice came from the side.

The elders of the major ancient families in the crowd exchanged knowing glances and then silently looked away.

These people were unaware that while Mu Zhian was indeed at the Refining Spirit Realm, his other cauldron was not.

While these people were still discussing this matter, more and more clouds in the sky were burned red by the Heavenly Phoenix Tree, and the conversation among the cultivators came to an end. Many people set off to fly into the sky on their swords to absorb spiritual energy.

The spiritual energy influenced by the Heavenly Phoenix Tree is all valuable; we should take as much as we can… We can slowly comprehend it after returning home. If we can gain something from it, then this trip to the Jade Pool Holy Land will have been worthwhile.

The Queen Mother of Yaochi stood in the sacred ground, watching the cultivators absorbing spiritual energy in mid-air, without stopping them. Her thoughts seemed to have already departed with the Azure Emperor.

The Azure Emperor chose the Yaochi Ancestral Land as the location for condensing the cauldron. This was partly to avoid the lightning tribulation affecting others in Yaochi, and partly because the ancestral artifact of the Yaochi Holy Land was hidden there. Moreover, the formation there was personally set up by the Azure Emperor, so even if someone had any bad intentions, they would be wiped out by the formation.

Five elders from Yaochi in the ancestral land went this time, each of them being at the Returning Void Realm. They will join forces to open the formation to prevent anyone from entering the ancestral land.

And that's all they can do.

As for whether he can form a cauldron and return to the Dao, it depends on the Azure Emperor himself, and on whether Mu Zhi'an's innate cauldron is sufficient to continuously provide the Azure-skirted Fairy with spiritual energy.

Whether the innate furnace can withstand the test of the Azure Emperor remains to be seen.

If the Azure Emperor were to reunite with the cauldron in the end, Mu Zhian's value would be amplified once again.

At that time... those ancient families who are secretly observing will probably try every means to 'trick' Mu Zhi'an back to their families, no matter how much they have to pay.

……

Yaochi, the ancestral homeland.

This ancestral land was personally created by the Azure Emperor, and every Yaochi Holy Maiden was selected from this place.

It can be said that the ancestral land holds an incomparably sacred position in the hearts of the disciples in Yaochi.

The territories possessed by the major powers in the Eastern Continent are all quite vast, and Yaochi is no exception.

The ancestral land is located in the eastern part of Yaochi. Here, the mountains and forests are lush and green, and occasionally unknown creatures flutter their wings and fly by, filling the air with the fragrance of herbs.

Deep in the mountains and forests, there stands a grand hall.

"Is this the ancestral land of Yaochi...?" Mu Zhian looked up at the ancient and sacred hall in front of him, and couldn't help but feel a deep sense of awe.

On either side of the main hall, he vaguely sensed that someone was secretly watching them. He looked up and saw a female elder he had seen before.

Mu Zhian nodded slightly to them, then glanced at the fairy in the green dress beside him and asked, "When does the fairy plan to begin condensing the cauldron?"

"Not urgent."

The fairy in the green dress looked up at the sky, her green eyes more profound than ever before, and said calmly, "No rush, wait a little longer."

Has the celestial secrets been deduced, and the optimal time for condensing the cauldron been determined...?

Mu Zhi'an understood perfectly.

"By the way, what's your name?" Mu Zhian suddenly asked as he followed the fairy in the green dress into the main hall.

She glanced at Mu Zhian, a faint smile in her eyes, and said softly, "I'll tell you next time."

Even her name is designed to pique people's interest. This fairy really does enjoy teasing others; she's a bit cunning... Mu Zhian thought to himself.

Let's whet her appetite a little and let her experience what 'torture' is like.

Just as Mu Zhian was thinking this, the fairy in the green dress had already stepped into the main hall.

After walking along the corridor for a while, you will see a bathing pool.

The water surface shimmered and was crystal clear, emitting a refreshing medicinal fragrance.

This was a preparation made by the Jade Pool Holy Land long ago to assist the fairy in the green dress in condensing the cauldron.

The elixirs prepared in this bath are priceless and unavailable in the outside world. Yaochi has spent more than half of its resources on this project.

Mu Zhian's gaze fell on the fairy in the green dress, and his mind began to stir.

Whether she sensed the boy's gaze or not, the fairy in the green dress seemed to feel a little hot in her crystal earlobes, but she forced herself to be natural under Mu Zhian's gaze. She floated lightly to the front of the bath, covered her full and firm breasts with one hand, and slightly tiptoed to touch the water.

Mu Zhian walked up behind the fairy in the green dress and gazed at her back.

Her body, wrapped in a green dress, perfectly outlined her graceful and sexy curves. Her delicate embroidered shoes had long since disappeared, and her flawless, jade-carved toes touched the water's surface, creating ripples.

Mu Zhian's gaze fell on the water again.

With his innate spiritual body, he was naturally able to sense just how concentrated the elixirs in the bath were.

"It feels a bit wasteful to use it for my bath..." Mu Zhian thought to himself.

Then our gaze returned to the fairy in the green dress.

That makes sense, though, since the bath wasn't prepared for him; he could just have a sip of soup there.

Hmm... but the main attraction isn't the soup, it's the meat you get to eat...

"I have a few more bottles of Reincarnation Water, let's add them to it as well." Mu Zhian took out the Reincarnation Water from his storage ring and poured it into the bath.

A person can only take the Reincarnation Water once; any more than that will be useless. The Reincarnation Pool had given him the Reincarnation Water multiple times before because of his constitution, but it was of little significance to Mu Zhian.

However, it is still of considerable help in condensing the cauldron of the fairy in the green dress.

After all, the spiritual energy in the Reincarnation Water is incredibly rich, comparable to some top-grade elixirs.

After doing all this, he looked at the Empress standing in front of the bath. Her thin clothes could hardly cover her full breasts, and her body was shrouded in a thin mist. In the mist, he could vaguely see a small section of her snow-white and slender legs.

Mu Zhian's heart stirred slightly, and his eyes became more intense. He took two steps forward and placed one hand on the plump waist of the fairy in the green dress.

The fairy in the green dress trembled slightly, glanced at Mu Zhian's mischievous hand, gently brushed it away, and said:

"Wait, wait a minute... I need to refine the Heavenly Phoenix Fruit first."

There seemed to be a hint of shyness in her voice that she didn't usually show.

"it is good."

Mu Zhian grinned, revealing a bright smile.

Then, a blue lotus quietly bloomed in front of the bath. The fairy in the blue dress walked on the bath as if on flat ground to the blue lotus.

At that moment, a phoenix's cry resounded throughout the hall.

The Heavenly Phoenix Fruit in the fairy's green dress transformed into a phoenix burning with flames and soared in the hall. Afterward, she meditated and cultivated in the green lotus, refining the Heavenly Phoenix Fruit.

Mu Zhian was very patient, so he sat aside and waited, slowly admiring the fairy's appearance and her slightly flushed face.

He wasn't in a hurry. Now that she was here, how could she possibly run away?

boom!

Nearly half an hour later, a thunderous sound resounded through the sky.

Many people outside know that this is the Azure Emperor's tribulation of lightning!

The cauldron has not yet been formed, but it has already stirred the Heavenly Dao, and the tribulation of lightning is already stirring!

On this day, countless cultivators from all over the Eastern Continent focused their gazes on the direction of the Yaochi Holy Land.

Rumors of a close relationship between Mu Zhi'an and the Azure Emperor spread from the forbidden zone to the Liangyi Sect, and then throughout the Eastern Continent...

Yaochi, the ancestral land.

Inside the main hall, the fairy in the green dress leaned against the medicinal bath, the water covering her chest, with only her pair of snow-white shoulders vaguely visible floating on the surface.

Above the bath, a clear and melodious phoenix cry resounded, and the Heavenly Phoenix Fruit actually hovered in the air like a real phoenix. Then, it quietly turned into a wisp of red smoke and entered the body of the fairy in the green dress.

Legend has it that the Heavenly Phoenix Fruit possesses the effect of 'rebirth'. As long as the spiritual consciousness remains, even a broken cauldron or a completely destroyed cauldron can be reassembled.

The fairy in the green dress closed her eyes slightly and quietly refined the Heavenly Phoenix Fruit.

The bath was shrouded in white mist, and her figure was vaguely visible. Her long, flowing hair was piled up, with strands hanging down in front of her jade-like neck. She had lost some of her aloofness but gained a touch of languid, down-to-earth charm.

Even though her jade-like neck was partially obscured by the bath and the misty fog, one could still feel the greatness of the human spirit.

Hmm... Although I've seen her more than once before, the fairy in the green dress is indeed unfathomable.

Mu Zhian sighed inwardly.

He was extremely patient, watching from the side until the Phoenix Fruit was completely refined by the fairy in the green dress before slowly walking behind her.

"Is the refining finished?" Mu Zhian asked, looking at her from behind.

Seemingly sensing the slightly burning gaze behind her, the fairy in the green dress nodded somewhat uncomfortably and softly hummed in the misty air.

Seeing this, Mu Zhian stepped forward and said, "Let me help you condense the cauldron."

He also wanted to take this opportunity to get revenge on the fairy for keeping him in suspense... Just as Mu Zhian was about to step down from the bath, he thought of this.

However, after taking just two steps forward, I suddenly felt a slightly familiar touch on my wrist.

...Judging from the feel, it should be something like a rope.

Mu Zhian looked down and noticed that, without him noticing, a slender green vine had silently climbed onto his wrist and then quietly lifted him in front of the fairy in the green dress.

Mu Zhian: "..."

"Fairy...?" After a brief silence, Mu Zhian's gaze fell on the fairy in the green dress.

Why is she in such a hurry...? Last time, at least she used this vine after they were done together, but this time, he's already been controlled before he even started.

The fairy in the green dress covered her chest with one hand and slowly stood up.

"Didn't I say this before? I can detect whether someone is lying or harboring 'malice' immediately." She spoke softly, her voice alone inspiring goodwill.

Looking at the boy who had been brought to her by the vines, the fairy in the green dress smiled faintly and said softly, "Although I know that your malice just now was not real malice, there is no time to play around at this point."

"So, I'll do it."

Mu Zhian: "..."

Hearing the pleasant voice in his ear, Mu Zhian suddenly realized something very serious.

Whether or not he can flirt with this empress seems to be beyond his control.

If he were to use vines, it seems he doesn't really have a good solution for the time being...
