It turns out, they were the main characters.

As she spoke, the senior sister's gaze quickly and curiously fell on the small box in Ye Lingxuan's hand.

Upon hearing this, everyone suddenly realized that the spirit that Ye Lingxuan had just conjured seemed to be stored in the small box in her hand.

What kind of magical treasure could be stored in such a small box?

“I see Miss Ye is holding two boxes… Could it be that she has conjured two spirits?” a rather handsome young man suddenly asked.

Many people glanced at the young man who had spoken, and then a look of surprise appeared in their eyes.

"The current young master of the Lan family of Dongzhou has actually come?"

"After all, this Ascension Ceremony is of great importance. Although the young master of the Lan family will not participate, his sister is still in the sect..."

"I guess Senior Sister Lan won't be participating?"

"Hey, who knows... But if Senior Sister Lan participates, this Ascension Ceremony will be quite interesting."

Hearing the whispers around him, Mu Zhian glanced at the young man who had spoken, his eyes also showing a hint of surprise.

Lan Mulian's brother... is that my future brother-in-law?

It seems that this Ascension Ceremony is indeed being taken seriously by all the ancient aristocratic families... Mu Zhian thought to himself.

At this moment, a disciple from another sect spoke up in the crowd: "If Junior Sister Lingxuan has enlightened two artifact spirits, would you be willing to part with one of them and sell it?"

Upon hearing this, someone immediately couldn't sit still and chimed in, "I can offer 500,000 spirit stones!"

"One million spirit stones!"

In a short while, people in the crowd began to speak up, showing great interest in the spirit that Ye Lingxuan had just conjured.

A spirit of the fifth rank or higher is extremely rare. Enlightening a spirit is different from refining pills. Even a high-ranking spirit master may not be able to enlighten a spirit of the fifth rank or higher.

Such a magical artifact, possessing a 'spirit,' can sometimes produce unexpected effects in battle.

However, Ye Lingxuan simply shook her head and refused to listen to such gazes, saying, "I'm sorry, I only enlightened one artifact spirit; the other was just a failure."

After speaking, she politely nodded slightly to everyone, then turned and walked into the Glazed Palace, leaving everyone with only her beautiful figure.

While everyone was still reminiscing, Mu Zhian had already quietly left the group, intending to return to Tianhe Garden first.

Just then, he suddenly heard Ye Lingxuan's voice transmission: "Brother Mu, come to my room tonight."

Just as Mu Zhian was about to return to Tianhe Garden, he paused slightly, stood in the crowd, and looked up in surprise.

Ye Lingxuan turned her head at some point, her beautiful face adorned with a bright smile. She winked playfully at him and continued to transmit her voice, "Brother Mu, you don't think you can hide from me by concealing your aura, do you?"

After a brief moment of astonishment, Mu Zhian quickly came to terms with it.

After all, she was born with a spiritual body, so it was too difficult to hide one's aura from her.

If I marry her in the future, I'll have to be careful. This Lingxuan sister is incredibly intelligent, and with her innate spiritual body... her ability to catch cheaters is off the charts.

Of course, these are all things for the future; let's consider this matter later.

More than that, he was concerned about why Ye Lingxuan had suddenly invited him to visit her.

And he went to see her at night.

Although he had a vague idea of ​​what was going on.

……

That evening.

The candlelight flickered, warming Ye Lingxuan's boudoir.

As if she had just taken a shower, Ye Lingxuan was wearing a loose white undergarment, her long, flowing hair cascading down to her waist, with a strand of hair falling across her delicate, flawless face, adding to her stunning beauty.

She supported herself on the edge of the bed with both hands, her eyes slightly lowered, her snow-white jade feet swinging back and forth in mid-air.

The window opened silently, and a gust of cold wind quietly blew into the room. The candle flickered in the wind, illuminating Mu Zhi'an's figure.

Ye Lingxuan looked up and, when she saw the boy climbing in through the window, she couldn't help but cover her mouth and chuckle: "Brother Mu, what are you doing climbing through the window?"

Mu Zhian smiled shyly, "I just wanted to make sure Siyu and Qian'er were in your room."

"They're not going to kick you out, there's no need to be sneaky, right?" Ye Lingxuan muttered to herself, then took out a delicate little box from her storage ring, came to him, and handed it over.

What, are you really planning to propose...? Mu Zhian chuckled to himself, but he had already roughly guessed what was going on.

"The spirit artifact that was consecrated during the day?" he asked, looking up.

Ye Lingxuan nodded slightly: "It was made using the Purple Lightning Sacred Rock given to me by Brother Mu, but she was the one who made it. I only enlightened the spirit of the artifact later."

As she said this, Ye Lingxuan glanced unintentionally at the white-robed mature woman who was standing quietly in the corner, her figure sexy and curvaceous.

"A magical artifact personally crafted by the Reincarnated Empress..." Mu Zhian asked in surprise.

He immediately took the small box and opened it.

Wow, it really is a wedding ring...?

Inside the small box was a gemstone ring with a deep purple hue, and it seemed to contain other valuable items, displaying intricate patterns.

Ye Lingxuan smiled and said, "Brother Mu won't reject me, will he?"

As she said this, she raised the identical ring on her finger.

Although Ye Lingxuan always wore a pure and sweet smile, Mu Zhian could still sense a hint of unease hidden in the girl's eyes.

If I refuse now, will I be bound by the Locks of Time...?

“In that case, I will accept Lingxuan’s marriage proposal,” Mu Zhian nodded.

"It's just a gift, not a proposal!" Ye Lingxuan glared at Mu Zhian.

Then, after watching Mu Zhian put on the ring, Ye Lingxuan finally revealed a faint smile.

"Thank you. It must have cost a lot of spirit stones and rare treasures, right?" Mu Zhian gently placed his hand on the girl's face and said softly.

"It's nothing compared to the help Brother Mu gave me before," Ye Lingxuan said, shaking her head.

Of course, that's what they say, but judging from the aura emanating from the ring, Mu Zhian thinks it should be a sixth-grade artifact spirit.

Just thinking about it makes you realize how much effort and spirit stones Ye Lingxuan must have spent on this.

After marveling at the young heiress's wealth, Mu Zhian sniffed the air and looked at Ye Lingxuan, asking, "Did you take a shower?"

Ye Lingxuan had a faint scent of flower petals on her body, which was obviously because she had just taken a bath.

She called me over late at night to deliver the ring, and then took a shower. It's hard not to have all sorts of wild thoughts... Mu Zhian stared intently at Ye Lingxuan.

"Uh-huh."

Noticing the boy's gaze, Ye Lingxuan, who was usually indifferent, seemed a little uncomfortable. She subconsciously avoided his gaze and quietly turned her face to the side, leaving Mu Zhian with only a beautiful, snow-white profile.

After a moment, Ye Lingxuan managed to suppress the chaotic thoughts in her mind and looked up, saying in as calm a tone as possible, "It's getting late, Brother Mu, you should go back and rest early."

The Reincarnation Queen in the corner had a slight glint in her eyes and couldn't help but ask, "Don't you plan to take back the reincarnation spiritual energy?"

Ye Lingxuan suddenly turned her head to look at her and said, "Don't speak!"

The aloof and emotionless older woman remained silent.

Mu Zhian glanced casually at the reincarnated empress in the corner, and then looked at Ye Lingxuan a couple more times.

For some reason, this usually serene and elegant young woman seemed to exude a certain allure today. Her eyelids were lowered, and her peach blossom eyes shimmered with moisture, as if she were somewhat uneasy about something that was about to happen.

Mu Zhian placed a hand on Ye Lingxuan's shoulder and said softly, "It's getting late tonight. Come to think of it, I haven't meditated and cultivated in Lingxuan's room yet. Why don't we stay here tonight?"

Ye Lingxuan raised her eyes and looked at him with great distrust: "You can't believe what Brother Mu says."

"With the Ascension Ceremony approaching, even I will cultivate diligently to avoid being eliminated too early," Mu Zhian explained earnestly.

Upon hearing the Ascension Ceremony, Ye Lingxuan seemed to recall the fact that she still had a wisp of spiritual energy within Mu Zhian's body, and couldn't help but glance at him a few more times.

"I...I want to meditate tonight, not practice meditation."

Today's spirit-cultivation process consumed some of her spiritual energy, but she can fully recover by the next day through meditation, so this statement is not a lie.

“That’s perfect, I’ll protect you!” Mu Zhian volunteered.

Ye Lingxuan hesitated for a moment, then couldn't help but glance at Mu Zhian a couple more times.

Finally, under his sincere gaze, Ye Lingxuan softly hummed in agreement.

After Ye Lingxuan got into bed, Mu Zhian indeed didn't do anything reckless, but instead sat quietly and cultivated.

Seeing this, Ye Lingxuan felt relieved and gradually entered a meditative state.

After an unknown amount of time, Mu Zhian quietly opened his eyes and muttered to himself, "It's cold, I'll go take a hot bath first."

After saying that, Mu Zhian turned to look at Ye Lingxuan, who seemed to be gradually entering a meditative state in bed, got up and got out of bed. He walked behind the screen and saw the bathtub that was still steaming.

The surface was covered with delicately fragrant flower petals, clearly indicating that Ye Lingxuan had just finished her bath.

Mu Zhian quickly took off his clothes, bathed in the tub for a while, then got up and picked up a towel hanging behind the screen to wipe himself clean.

After stepping out of the screen, I saw the reincarnated empress, who had been silent throughout the room, disappear without a trace.

It seems that Lingxuan was right. The reincarnated empress is not without feelings. At least she would still feel embarrassed in this situation...? Mu Zhian secretly guessed.

With these thoughts in mind, Mu Zhian took the opportunity to lift the quilt, crawl into the bed, and embrace Ye Lingxuan's slender waist through her thin white undergarment.

On this cold winter night, only Lingxuan's bed can warm one's heart.

Ye Lingxuan frowned slightly. Even in her meditation, she could still feel Mu Zhian's warm and familiar aura covering her, and his warm hands moving from being cautious at first to gradually becoming unrestrained in the quilt.

She pursed her lips and slowly opened her eyes in a daze.

Snowflakes drifted outside, candlelight burned quietly, and time passed silently.

Ye Lingxuan wasn't angry at Mu Zhian's unsportsmanlike sneak attack; instead, she felt flustered and embarrassed.

She wasn't a naive girl like her younger sister Ye Qian. At least when Mu Zhian mentioned staying tonight, Ye Lingxuan had a vague idea of ​​what was going on.

If this were in the past, Ye Lingxuan would probably have already summoned the Lock of Desolate Time, tied Mu Zhian up, packed him up, and thrown him out.

But at this moment, whether she had just woken up from a daze of meditation or because she had never had such intimate contact with Mu Zhian before, Ye Lingxuan instinctively pressed down on the fabric of her inner garment.

She turned her head slightly in confusion, and after seeing the boy's face clearly, her eyes showed a hint of embarrassment and annoyance. She said in a low voice as if scolding him, "Brother Mu, why did you come in? Didn't we agree that you were just a protector?"

Mu Zhian pressed his chest against Ye Lingxuan's back, his arms tightly around her slender waist, and whispered softly in her ear, "It's snowing outside, and it's so cold. Can you bear to let me meditate on the floor?"
