It turns out, they were the main characters.

Ancestor, is there something you need?

Ye Yu was clearly still fuming from his earlier anger, and he unleashed a torrent of cold words and negative emotions.

Ye Qingxin glanced at Ye Yu without showing any emotion and said calmly, "Although you lost today, you don't need to deny yourself. With your talent, you will have a chance to win back Mu Zhian next time."

"Thank you for your concern, ancestor. Although I lost to Mu Zhian today, if I had to say, what I truly lost was the ancestor's Heaven-Questioning Lock."

As Ye Yu spoke, he felt a surge of resentment welling up inside him, and he wished he could tear Mu Zhi'an to pieces.

However, he seemed completely unaware that Ye Qingxin was also somewhat stunned after hearing Ye Yu's words.

What did Ye Yu mean by that?

Not only did they refuse to admit their defeat, they even shifted the blame onto her.

My original intention was to stand up for Ye Yu, but Mu Zhian passed the cave heaven's assessment after that. Could it be that I should break my promise and not give Mu Zhian a first-grade artifact spirit?

Moreover, Mu Zhian clearly has many trump cards yet to be revealed. Even without the Heavenly Lock, Ye Yu, with his temperament, would not be able to defeat Mu Zhian.

Oh.

Although Ye Qingxin's temperament had been tempered over ten thousand years and she rarely experienced significant fluctuations, she was still angered by one of the descendants of the Ye family.

No, it's not just anger; it's utter heartbreak.

She walked into the room in delicate, small boots, her red dress interwoven with black fabric, which further accentuated her stunning beauty.

Her slender figure was like a witch in fire, yet her beautiful red eyes, like those of crystal, revealed utter disappointment and coldness.

Even so, she still took out a delicate little jade bottle from her sleeve and placed it on the table: "This is a Qi-Nourishing Pill. After taking it, you will be fully recovered within a week."

"From now on, take good care of yourself."

Ye Qingxin looked at Ye Yu, her tone devoid of any emotion.

Then, in the next instant, the fiery red figure disappeared from the room.

She did not give the pills that Mu Zhian had given her to Ye Yu.

Ye Yu's attitude is unworthy of Mu Zhian's good intentions.

At this moment, Ye Qingxin felt utterly heartbroken, and even wondered what her purpose was in descending to the mortal realm.

Meanwhile, Mu Zhian had just woken up from refining the pills. When he opened his eyes, he saw a fiery red figure appear in the room.

At this moment, Ye Qingxin's usual calm demeanor was gone; her pretty face was covered in frost, and anyone with eyes could see that she was in an extremely bad mood.

It's obvious that Ye Yu must have impulsively said something earlier.

Having just suffered a defeat, Ye Yu, thinking back to the reason for his defeat caused by the Heavenly Lock, would inevitably feel resentment towards his ancestors.

It's really easy to guess what kind of person Ye Yu, who is so jealous, is like.

Since Ye Yu is ignoring such a beautiful woman's legs, I'll do the honor...

Mu Zhian looked up and said, "Senior is back? You don't look too well."

He asked with a tone full of concern.

Ye Qingxin composed herself slightly and asked, "Have you finished refining the pill?"

Mu Zhian nodded slightly and smiled, "Thanks to you, senior, the pills given by His Majesty Luo Tan have been refined."

He paused slightly, then asked, puzzled, "Is Senior in a bad mood? Could it be... that Senior had a conflict with Ye Yu?"

Ye Qingxin shook her head and said, "Let's not talk about Ye Yu's matter. Your injuries are more important than that."

Mu Zhian frowned: "You risked offending another Dao Integration Realm expert to stand up for your descendants. If I had such a beautiful ancestor who loved me dearly, I would cherish her too much."

"And yet Ye Yu didn't even know how to cherish it, and instead broke your heart?"

"Young friend Mu, let's not talk about him anymore. Let him cultivate on his own from now on." Ye Qingxin was already feeling somewhat depressed, and hearing Mu Zhian's words made her even more sad.

But at the same time, the initial chill towards Ye Yu dissipated considerably, replaced by a sense of gratitude.

There are still people who can see her efforts, not everyone is like Ye Yu...

If this person were a descendant of the Ye family, she probably wouldn't be so heartbroken today.

After all, Mu Zhian was able to understand her.

Moreover, he is a natural furnace, and a natural furnace with infinite possibilities.

"Senior has sacrificed so much for Ye Yu, this is really going too far," Mu Zhian sighed softly.

Then, he suddenly remembered something and continued, "By the way, Lingxuan and Qian'er have been encountering difficulties in their cultivation recently. If you have time later, senior, you might as well go to Dexin Garden. Sister Siyu happens to be there as well."

Ye Qingxin did not refuse, but lowered her eyes as if she was thinking.

Mu Zhian remained silent, staring at the stunningly beautiful ancestor of the Ye family, awaiting her reply.

Finally, after an unknown amount of time, Ye Qingxin's clear and calm voice gently rang out in the room.

"Alright."

As Ye Qingxin's reply faded, a bright smile appeared on Mu Zhian's face.

"Speaking of which, I am also half a member of the Ye family. If it is possible in the future, could I ask you for guidance on cultivation difficulties?"

He knew that Ye Qingxin wouldn't refuse him at this moment.

Unexpectedly, Ye Qingxin raised her eyes and stared at Mu Zhian.

Then, she supported herself on the soft couch with both hands, gently leaned close to Mu Zhian's ear, and whispered a soft, slightly seductive voice that made people itch.

"I'm afraid what you want to ask me isn't just about cultivation, is it?"

In a warm room.

When Mu Zhian heard that soft, seductive voice that made his bones almost melt, he couldn't help but raise his head slightly.

That glance revealed Ye Qingxin's exquisite face so close to his eyes, her sexy and alluring red lips, her magnificent red eyes, and the faint smile hidden deep within them.

Mu Zhian was taken aback for a moment, then a thought popped into his mind:

Holy crap, I've been flirted with?!

It's no wonder that Mu Zhian was somewhat lost in thought. A stunning beauty like Ye Qingxin, if she took the initiative to flirt, would naturally be captivating.

However, logically speaking, things shouldn't be progressing this quickly. This woman is still quite wary of me, so how could she possibly seduce me?

Just as Mu Zhian had expected, the next moment, Ye Qingxin's captivating eyes suddenly turned cold, and she withdrew her gaze.

"Young friend Mu, you probably don't know something yet."

Looking at the beautiful woman in the red dress who had left her seat amidst the fragrant breeze, and at the graceful curves that were tightly outlined by the fabric, Mu Zhian asked in confusion, "What is it that you are referring to, senior?"

Ye Qingxin raised her hand, and a red light flashed in her palm, revealing a painting scroll in her hand.

Turning back, her beautiful eyes gazed tenderly at Mu Zhian, and she said softly, "The cave heaven I created before, and everything that happened in that cave heaven, will be presented in this scroll."

"Yesterday, the Azure Emperor and I personally observed the performance of you disciples in the assessment."

Mu Zhian was slightly taken aback, then his eyes slowly widened, and a big question mark slowly appeared above his head.

When Ye Qingxin said this, her gaze fell directly on Mu Zhian.

She had expected to see this big boy, who had always pretended to be obedient and well-behaved in front of her, now looking shocked and even apologizing to her for disrespecting the Empress.

Unexpectedly, after a brief moment of stunned silence, Mu Zhian lowered his eyes slightly and sighed softly.

"No wonder the senior was so wary of me before. It turns out he saw all the things I had imagined in my mind."

No wonder she was so wary of me before. I had been wondering if she knew what I was thinking about her. Turns out, she just saw how I had imagined how I would treat her...

Eight times in one night, and he even tore her clothes to shreds... Which woman wouldn't be wary of Mu Zhian?

It can be said that Ye Qingxin's willingness to give Mu Zhian a first-grade artifact spirit after Mu Zhian's release showed great magnanimity.

At this moment, Mu Zhian felt a sense of impending doom filling his heart, to the point that even he could hardly bear it.

But then, he gradually calmed down.

"Young friend Mu, it seems you have something else to explain?"

Ye Qingxin's eyes turned cold in an instant, as if she were a high and mighty god.

If Mu Zhian hadn't just heard the woman's alluring voice, he would have thought it was all an illusion.

This woman is indeed a vixen, truly incredibly alluring...

Mu Zhian had only ever experienced this kind of woman with Yao Meng.

Yao Meng appears to be pure and innocent on the outside, but once you get to know her, you'll realize that this fairy is actually quite cunning beneath that purity.

Mu Zhian lowered his eyes slightly and said respectfully, "Actually, I don't think I've done anything wrong in this matter."

"If I had to say, this is the senior's problem."

Ye Qingxin raised an eyebrow slightly, watching him without showing any emotion.

Why is he starting to speak like Ye Yu?

Having just been disheartened by the unfilial descendants of the Ye family, how could one not be angry when they came to Mu Zhian's place and heard things like "This is not my problem, it's all your fault"?

However, the next moment, Mu Zhian continued, "Senior's appearance is so beautiful that it would not be an exaggeration to say that she is a peerless beauty, one of the most outstanding beauties in the world. Tell me, how many people in the Nine Provinces would not be moved by her?"

He covered his mouth and coughed weakly a few times, then raised his tired eyes and smiled helplessly: "The reason why a saint is a saint is not because he has no evil thoughts, but because he knows how to control his evil thoughts."

"Juniors respect their elders, so they keep their inner thoughts to themselves."

"But in that grotto-heaven, people's desires are amplified infinitely. After all, that is the content of the grotto-heaven's assessment... And when such desires are amplified infinitely, the admiration hidden in my heart is naturally hard to suppress."

Mu Zhian struggled to sit up, one hand on the bed frame, his head bowed slightly.

"If you have any grievances about this, I am willing to accept your punishment."

Stepping on me is fine too...

His attitude was extremely sincere, coupled with Mu Zhian's slightly pale face, the cold sweat that involuntarily seeped out just by standing up, and his handsome face that was enough to attract older women.

All these factors combined caused Ye Qingxin to narrow her eyes slightly, and the coldness in her gaze softened a little.

It can be said that Mu Zhian's answer was perfect and impeccable.
