It turns out, they were the main characters.

Even Yao Meng watched this scene with great interest, somewhat surprised.

It should be noted that the Heavenly Lock is equivalent to an ancestral artifact. Even though Mu Zhian has not yet refined the Heavenly Lock, he is still capable of fighting beyond his level.

Within the same realm, those who possess ancestral artifacts are absolutely invincible.

As a result, Lan Mulian actually broke through the intimidation of a first-grade artifact spirit by relying solely on her own physical constitution?

"That's the end for the pastor's brother."

"Although I knew long ago that he couldn't possibly defeat my senior sister, it's still quite rare to see someone suppress a fellow cultivator solely based on their own domain..."

At this moment, all the disciples and elders were utterly shocked.

If one had to say who among those present wasn't surprised, it would undoubtedly be Mu Zhian, who was inside the cave.

After all, she's my senior sister.

Although she was not reincarnated as a powerful being, nor did she have any spiritual protection within her body, she was already invincible among her peers simply because of her own talent.

Even so, Mu Zhian was still somewhat surprised.

He was already injured and had long anticipated that his chances of winning against Lan Mulian were almost zero, but he still didn't expect the Heavenly Fate Sacred Body's domain to be so exaggerated.

Spell ineffective!

Spiritual energy is ineffective!

The technique is ineffective!

Even the Heavenly Lock was frozen in mid-air, as if the entire space was under Lan Mulian's control.

At that moment, countless whispers came from outside the cave. Ye Qian, in the crowd, subconsciously hugged her sister's arm tightly, but her eyes were fixed on the ice realm in mid-air with worry.

Ye Lingxuan's eyes were calm, but deep within them lay a hint of worry.

At this moment, Lan Feiying narrowed her eyes slightly, as if she had sensed something unusual, her charming eyes filled with a hint of doubt.

Instead of launching a final attack on Mu Zhi'an, Lan Mulian, under countless gazes, stepped through the void as if climbing stairs, slowly walking towards Mu Zhi'an.

Meanwhile, Mu Zhian slightly shifted his body, which felt as heavy as lead. Finding it extremely difficult to move, he smiled nonchalantly, looked up, and said slowly, "Senior sister, come on."

For him, the outcome of this competition was predetermined from the start, and since Lan Mulian won against him and continued to win in the Ascension Tournament, he would be safe.

"Although my junior brother lost, he seems to have everything under his control."

Lan Mulian did not make a move directly, but a ripple appeared in her calm gaze as she stared at Mu Zhian.

A delicate fragrance wafted into my nostrils, captivating me.

However, hidden deep within those seemingly calm eyes were emotions that were difficult to decipher.

Mu Zhian smiled naturally and said, "After all, the person I'm facing is my senior sister. I was already prepared when I saw that my opponent was you."

"Are you also prepared to watch me win in the end so that you can rest assured?" Lan Mulian said calmly, gazing at Mu Zhian's handsome face.

He looked so relaxed, as if everything was under his control.

As Mu Zhian predicted, he would indeed lose the competition. However, judging from the strength that Lan Mulian has shown in the past few days, she is probably the most likely to win the Ascension Tournament.

Once her senior sister wins the competition, Mu Zhian will no longer have to worry about facing a hellish battleground.

What are they talking about?

"Are Mu Zhi'an and Senior Sister Lan really that close?"

"But this is still a competition, isn't this a bit..."

A commotion had already arisen outside the cave. Since the two were communicating directly to each other's ears via telepathy, to outsiders, it appeared that Mu Zhi'an and Lan Mulian were merely exchanging glances.

Mu Zhian smiled and said, "I just believed that Senior Sister could win in the end, I didn't think that much about it."

Lan Mulian raised her eyebrows slightly.

Ha, it's obvious he's lying.

She knew exactly what her junior brother was thinking.

Lan Mulian raised her fingertips, and behind her, thousands of runes seemed to flash. Her expression was as cold and indifferent as ever, but when she glanced at Mu Zhian, a faint blush seemed to appear on her flawless face hidden under the veil.

"You lost." She calmly and pleasantly pronounced Mu Zhian's defeat.

Mu Zhian was mentally prepared for this outcome. He tilted his head slightly and said, "I concede!"

The moment that sound fell, the entire cave trembled slightly.

"Lan Mulian wins!"

Then, as the old man's voice declared Lan Mulian's victory, a lively reaction finally erupted from the audience.

"As expected, even the darkest horse will find it difficult to defeat Senior Sister Lan..."

"Even Mu Zhian's first-grade artifact spirit is blocked, it's too difficult... If I were to encounter my senior sister, I wouldn't be able to win either."

"Senior sister is still the same senior sister..."

Many of the younger generation were talking among themselves, and were not surprised by the result.

Ye Qian gently tugged at Ye Lingxuan's sleeve and whispered, "Sister, let's go comfort Brother Mu in a little while."

"How do you want to comfort him?" Ye Lingxuan glanced at her sister. "Besides, with Brother Mu's mentality, he won't be affected by this setback at all."

"He's still laughing right now."

As she finished speaking, Ye Lingxuan looked up and saw the young man with a faint smile on his face.

Even Mu Zhian knew he couldn't win this competition. In the end, it didn't matter to him whether he won or not, since he had already accomplished the task of suppressing the luck of the chosen one.

If it were my senior sister who won the Ascension Tournament, that would be the best outcome.

"Huh, it seems like Senior Sister isn't planning on leaving the cave yet?"

At this moment, Ye Qian suddenly called out softly, her gaze fixed intently on the scene within the ice realm.

Ye Lingxuan's eyes flickered slightly, and she subconsciously looked up at the scene that appeared in mid-air, feeling somewhat surprised and doubtful.

At the same time, Mu Zhian, who was in a relaxed mood, also noticed this. After hesitating for a moment, she asked, "Senior Sister, aren't you planning to leave yet?"

Lan Mulian, dressed in a moon-white long dress, stood gracefully in mid-air, her calm, beautiful eyes seemingly flashing with an unusual luster.

Then, a clear and pleasant voice came: "You lost this competition, but if I had to say, I didn't win either."

For some reason, Mu Zhian suddenly had a bad feeling.

He stared in surprise at Lan Mulian's beautiful eyes, which were as clear as a cold pool, while his mind was filled with images of himself being attacked in the past.

Then, when Mu Zhian saw Lan Mulian take another half step forward, his heart skipped a beat, and he subconsciously took a half step back.

However, the next moment, the spiritual energy in the entire space was once again stripped away by Lan Mulian.

Destiny Domain!

Lan Mulian smiled faintly and said softly, "I will naturally win the Ascension Tournament in the end, but it's a bit too early for Junior Brother to breathe a sigh of relief now."

Under the gaze of countless eyes below the Ascension Platform, she gently removed her veil.

She revealed a stunningly beautiful face, cold and flawless.

Then, he took two steps forward, and under countless astonished gazes, he slightly turned his head and gently kissed Mu Zhian's cheek.

Outside the Ascension Platform, there was a sudden moment of silence.

Mu Zhian was also stunned for a moment, and the calm smile on his face froze slightly.

Lan Mulian raised her head slightly, a hint of shyness flashing in her eyes, but a bewitching smile appeared on her lips.

"Don't think that I'll let you off the hook after I win."

She glanced casually at the outside of the cave. Although she couldn't see the outside world, Bai Ruoxi and the others felt as if the other person was looking down at them through that gaze.

Like a deity, it is high above and gives people an endless sense of oppression.

And the meaning expressed in Lan Mulian's eyes seemed to be only one: the future belongs to you.

But Mu Zhian is mine.

"I was so stupid..."

"I know there's still a thin veil between my senior sister and me, so I supported her in winning the Ascension Tournament... But I overlooked her domineering female CEO personality; she can't stand being provoked."

Mu Zhian had just left the cave and was in a daze. He ignored the countless murderous gazes around him and muttered to himself.

He knew that Lan Mulian was the reserved and aloof type. If he wanted to pursue his senior sister, he would have to take the initiative. Don't expect her to confess her feelings first.

However... before that, various things had happened to Mu Zhian, and without exception, they all provoked this senior sister.

Bai Ruoxi had just been arrogant again... The result was obvious: the senior sister responded to the women in a more concise and direct way.

At this moment, not only were the people below the Ascension Platform stunned, but even Yao Meng on the platform unconsciously narrowed her eyes.

Countless gazes fell upon Lan Mulian, who had just stepped out of the cave. Although she had only just reached the Returning to the Void Realm, this senior sister already possessed the aura of an unparalleled beauty.

She noticed several very familiar gazes in the crowd, which swept over Ye Lingxuan and the others before landing on Lan Feiying in the crowd.

The two sisters exchanged a glance. Lan Mulian's eyes remained as indifferent as ever, as if she had just done something very ordinary, and she looked away.

Don't you guys like to provoke and provoke people?

Today I'll go after him too. I'll even declare right now that the champion of the Ascension Tournament will be mine, and Mu Zhi'an will be mine too. So what?

Lan Mulian pursed her red lips hidden under her veil. Although her cool face was flushed with a faint blush, she felt extremely happy inside.

She had suppressed her feelings for far too long, so while doing this today was somewhat shameful, the feeling of being publicly shamed also brought her great pleasure.

Just then, she suddenly noticed a very conspicuous gaze coming from in front of the Ascension Platform.

Lan Mulian followed that gaze and looked up in the direction of the Ascension Platform.

The Azure Emperor, dressed in a long cyan dress, looked at her with a cool smile.

Unlike the others, Yao Meng's emerald green eyes remained calm throughout, even carrying a faint smile.

Lan Mulian gazed at the empress who stood tall in the world, then quickly bowed politely to her before gracefully departing, leaving Mu Zhian alone in front of the dueling platform, bewildered.

It's over... Now the only person who can protect me is Sister Mengrou...
