It turns out, they were the main characters.

At this moment, Regina continued to ask, "What does Young Master Mu think of my suggestion just now?"

Under Regina's expectant gaze, Mu Zhian slowly shook his head.

A hint of disappointment crept into Regina's eyes.

At this moment, Mu Zhian continued, "I can agree to your conditions, but I don't need three million spirit stones."

For him, three million spirit stones was indeed a lot. If he simply melted the spirit stones into spiritual energy, he estimated that he could advance half a grade within seven days.

However, Regina's true value is not three million spirit stones...

Regina tilted her head slightly, looking puzzled, and asked, "Then what do you want...?"

"I want that thing on the table," Mu Zhian said.

Regina's gaze inadvertently drifted to the bronze plate on the table.

From the very beginning, Mu Zhian showed interest in the bronze fragments... Clearly, Mu Zhian must know the secrets hidden within the bronze fragments.

Although the bronze fragment was indeed of little use to her, handing over a bronze fragment of mysterious origin to someone from the Eastern Continent...

“Young Master Mu seems to know very well what is hidden in this bronze shard,” Regina said meaningfully.

Mu Zhian shook his head: "I don't know, I just want to take it back and study it. I've always been interested in studying these strange and unusual things."

Seemingly seeing that Regina clearly did not believe him, Mu Zhian smiled and said, "I can swear to God that I do not know the secret of the bronze piece, nor can I refine it."

Boom!

A thunderous roar echoed in the sky as the Great Dao responded to Mu Zhian's vow.

If the Great Dao could speak, it would probably be unable to resist complaining right now: You've really figured out how to use this oath.

Mu Zhian may not know the secret of the bronze tablet, but that doesn't mean others don't.

Regina's gentle smile faded slightly, her beautiful eyes gazing quietly at Mu Zhian, her gaze flickering as if she were weighing the pros and cons.

For her, the bronze piece was indeed of little use, because she could neither activate its effects nor unravel its secrets.

But in exchange, one can obtain a reincarnation spiritual energy that strengthens the soul-reading physique in the near future... It seems like a worthwhile deal.

The only thing that's annoying is Mu Zhian's nonchalant smile, which is quite unpleasant.

It felt like I had been completely controlled by the other party from the very beginning.

"What does Miss Regina think?" Mu Zhian asked calmly.

"When can we make a deal?" Regina asked after a brief silence.

Mu Zhian pondered for a moment and said, "After the Ascension Ceremony, I'll have more time then."

Regina gave Mu Zhian a deep look.

Mu Zhian clearly doesn't want her to receive reincarnation spiritual energy to strengthen her soul-reading body anytime soon, yet he says it in such a high-sounding way.

But after a brief moment of thought, Regina nodded gently: "Then let's do as Young Master Mu says and exchange the bronze pieces for the reincarnation spiritual energy."

"Deal." Mu Zhian smiled and extended his hand.

Regina glanced at him and shook his hand.

“I need to take this bronze piece with me first,” Mu Zhian continued.

Seemingly noticing Regina's displeasure, Mu Zhian continued, "Don't worry, the oath has been made. How could I possibly go against the will of the Great Dao?"

Regina's expression relaxed considerably.

After chatting with Regina for a while longer, Mu Zhian got up to say goodbye.

They had been in this elegant room for far too long. If they didn't leave soon, there would inevitably be some gossip within the sect. Besides, there were not only sect disciples in the Liangyi Sect, but also people from other forces.

"They're out!"

Mu Zhian had just left the elegant room when he heard a slight commotion coming from the attic.

He deliberately slowed his pace, keeping a certain distance from Regina.

Regina clearly understood what Mu Zhian meant, and without lingering, she left the attic directly.

But as she left the attic, she turned back and gazed at Mu Zhi'an with moist eyes.

Such eyes reminded Mu Zhian of a deer's eyes, clear and bright, coupled with her pale skin, making people subconsciously relax their guard at first glance.

However, Mu Zhian had just witnessed the power of this Southern Wilderness Saintess in the elegant room... The fact that she could frighten Nigati with just bloodline suppression showed that this girl was not as simple as he had imagined.

Mu Zhian and she exchanged a glance, then quickly looked away from each other.

As a player with a high level of awareness about avoiding ganks, it's natural to be mindful of one's image in public places like this.

Just as Mu Zhian was about to leave the pavilion, he suddenly felt a very familiar gaze. He looked up and saw Lan Mulian, who had walked out of the elegant room at some point.

Beside her was the alluring and seductive Lan Feiying.

How did they get here...?

A question flashed through Mu Zhi'an's mind, and then he transmitted his voice, "Senior Sister, what are you doing here?"

At the same time, he transmitted his voice again: "Sister Feiying, it's been a long time. Did you miss me?"

Lan Feiying pursed her sexy red lips, looked down at Mu Zhian from the stage, a faint smile in her eyes, and said in a voice transmission, "Didn't we just meet?"

"Feiying has some questions she wants to ask me, so she invited me here," Lan Mulian transmitted her voice.

"I see. Let's find some time to go to Tianxuan City together again sometime." Mu Zhian secretly transmitted his voice to Lan Mulian.

At the same time, he transmitted his voice to Lan Feiying again, saying, "A day apart feels like three autumns, not to mention that Sister Feiying has been very busy recently, so we haven't had much time to chat."

A charming smile curved Lan Feiying's lips, and her gentle, pleasant voice rang in Mu Zhian's ear: "Won't you come up and sit down?"

"No, I have some things to do later... I'll go to Tianji Peak to find my sister next time," Mu Zhian transmitted his voice.

At the same time, he couldn't help but sigh inwardly.

This was the first time he had discovered how useful the ability of telepathy was... He wasn't afraid of crashing even with dual-threaded operation.

Mu Zhian chatted with Lan Mulian for a few more minutes via telepathy before leaving the aerial pavilion.

He wasn't lying; he did miss his senior sister and Fei Ying. However, so much had happened recently, and he also needed to recuperate, which made him feel lonely.

And this often lonely body and mind can only be soothed by the hearts of the fairy in the green dress and Nai Xi who work tirelessly day and night.

Upon returning to Tianhe Garden, Mu Zhian walked in for a short while before seeing Miss Bai in the courtyard.

As if sensing something, Bai Ruoxi raised her stunningly beautiful face, her eyes shining, and said softly, "Mulang, you're back?"

Wei Mengrou didn't speak, but quietly watched her young master from the shadows.

"Did the Holy Maiden of the Southern Wilderness threaten you or do anything?" Bai Ruoxi asked with a hint of worry as she looked at Mu Zhian who was walking towards her.

Mu Zhian shook his head and smiled, "It's nothing. To be honest, she and I just exchanged information."

Exchanging intelligence?

Bai Ruoxi frowned slightly, sensing that something was amiss.

Why did Regina choose to approach Mu Zhian instead of everyone else?

It seems rather suspicious just thinking about it.

"By the way, Ruoxi, try this to see if it works." At this moment, Mu Zhian took out the unremarkable bronze piece from his storage ring and handed it to Bai Ruoxi.

Miss Bai, with her enviable, voluptuous breasts, tilted her head slightly, looking at the bronze piece in Mu Zhi'an's hand with a slightly confused expression. Then, she subconsciously glanced at the smile on Mu Zhi'an's face and asked, "Bronze piece? Where did you get this, Mu Lang?"

"I traded my body for it..." Mu Zhian laughed. "You traded it with someone else... Let's not talk about that. Hurry up and try to see if you can refine it."

Under Mu Zhian's gentle urging, Bai Ruoxi finally accepted the bronze piece, placed her delicate hand on her breasts, and closed her eyes slightly.

Almost instantly, the second bronze piece that Mu Zhian brought emitted a faint white light.

"This really is Ruoxi's!" Mu Zhian's eyes lit up slightly.

This deal with Regina was truly a steal...

This thing might not be of much value to Regina, but it would have a completely different effect on Bai Ruoxi.

The two bronze pieces quietly coalesced, and a soft, milky-white halo enveloped Bai Ruoxi, giving her already fair and translucent skin a holy glow.

Nearly half an hour later, the milky white light slowly dissipated.

"How is it? Have you refined it?" Mu Zhian asked.

Bai Ruoxi quietly opened her moist, beautiful eyes, looked up at Mu Zhian, and was about to speak.

At this moment, Wei Mengrou suddenly asked, "Can you feel the ground shaking?"

Mu Zhian glanced subconsciously at the tea on the table.

The surface of the tea water rippled gently.

The vibration lasted for less than a few seconds before it stopped.

Mu Zhian looked at the bronze plaque that Bai Ruoxi was wearing around her neck, now fused together, with some doubt.

Is it a coincidence?

Or was it caused by this bronze fragment?

boom!

Just as this guess flashed through his mind, Mu Zhian suddenly heard a deafening roar in his ear.

Inside the innate furnace, the fairy in the green dress silently opened her beautiful eyes and gazed in a certain direction of the Eastern Continent.

Meanwhile, in mid-air above Tianji Peak, the spirit dragon seemed to sense something, blinked its clear and bright eyes, and turned its head slightly to look in a certain direction. The fish it was holding in its mouth struggled to break free by flapping its tail, but to no avail.

On this day, not only the Tianhe Garden where Mu Zhian was located, but also the cultivators of the Liangyi Sect and other ancient families in the Eastern Continent all noticed this unusual tremor. They speculated about the origin of the tremor, but no conclusion was reached.

That afternoon, a shocking piece of news spread among the many cultivators.

The Sword Palace has been born!

afternoon.

The winter sun shines through the branches and leaves, casting dappled light and shadows on the ground. The wind stirs the leaves, and the dappled light and shadows move with the wind.
