It turns out, they were the main characters.

"I just wanted to let him lie in bed for a few more months."

Gongsun Xiong is at the peak of the Refining Spirit realm. After recovering from this serious injury, he will definitely use the Meridian Opening Pill to try his luck in advancing to the Returning Void realm.

But if someone tampered with the Tongmai Pill... then the outcome would be completely different.

Compared to her own mother, Bai Ruoxi was as innocent as a little white rabbit.

However, coincidentally, Mu Zhian likes white rabbits.

Moreover, although Bai Ruoxi is like a little white rabbit, she also has aspects that are not like a little white rabbit.

"Was it you who provided the Gongsun family with the intelligence that Uncle was ambushed on his way back from the neighboring city that day?" Mu Zhian asked.

Seeing Bai Yuanfeng nod, Mu Zhian frowned and said, "Aren't you afraid that your uncle will be killed by the Gongsun family cultivators on his way back?"

Bai Yuanfeng revealed a charming smile: "Young Master Mu, you are indeed a very smart child. I would be very relieved if Ruoxi were by your side in the future. However... your cultivation level is too low, and you do not understand the true mysteries of the Refining Spirit Realm."

Bai Yuanfeng slowly opened her palm.

Mu Zhian's gaze sharpened slightly as he noticed a primordial spirit in the beautiful woman's palm.

That was the primordial spirit of a servant in the Bai family, which Bai Yuanfeng had just casually captured.

She flicked her finger, and the primordial spirit swiftly flew out and returned to the servant's body.

Noticing Mu Zhian's surprised look, Bai Yuanfeng said, "I was there at the time. If anything had happened to the master, I could have taken away his primordial spirit immediately."

This secret method is somewhat similar to the old man's, except that Ren Lao's secret method is used to interrogate others, and the captured souls are all dead.

Bai Yuanfeng's secret technique can save people in critical moments, but it should also have drawbacks... Mu Zhian thought to himself.

Bai Yuanfeng was right; he still knew too little about the Refining Spirit Realm.

If he had known from the beginning that some cultivators at the Refining Spirit Realm could directly take away another person's primordial spirit, his mind would have been much sharper, and he wouldn't have only discovered the truth now.

"Why did you choose me instead of Ye Yu for Ruoxi?" Mu Zhian suddenly asked.

"Ye Yu has talent but is arrogant. I've seen countless geniuses like him in the past, and most of them eventually failed along the way."

Bai Yuanfeng said, "To be honest, I am not satisfied with either you or Ye Yu, but if I had to choose one, the Mu family, as a strong backer, makes me feel more at ease."

"You and Gongsun Xiong really..." Mu Zhian asked again.

Bai Yuanfeng narrowed her eyes slightly and said softly, "What do you think?"

Her body was changing, and three tails quietly unfolded in the shadow behind her, like a peacock spreading its tail feathers.

Mu Zhian's gaze narrowed slightly.

It really is a demon cultivator... and a three-tailed fox at that...

No wonder he could disguise himself so well and completely deceive Gongsun Xiong...

Gongsun Xiong thought he had some kind of relationship with Madam Bai, but perhaps every night Gongsun Xiong was just embracing the pillar to satisfy himself.

And if that's the case, Bai Ruoxi is the child born from a three-tailed fox and a human...?

No wonder I was uncontrollably staring at Bai Ruoxi's heart before, so that's what it was all about... Mu Zhian understood slightly.

He had thought he was a pervert, but now it seems that it was simply because Bai Ruoxi inherited her mother's "allure".

Hmm... It's definitely not my fault. The fact that I was a little restless in Bai Ruoxi's boudoir tonight is definitely the fault of the Three-Tailed Fox.

"What are you planning to do next?" Mu Zhian asked.

"Originally, we planned to annex the Gongsun family, but the examiners from the Liangyi Sect came down the mountain ahead of schedule." Bai Yuanfeng frowned slightly as she said this.

Lan Mulian's descent from the mountain completely disrupted her plans.

Gongsun Xiong was a man with an insatiable thirst for power. Originally, the Bai family would have had a chance to make their move once Gongsun Xiong's health deteriorated after taking the Meridian-Opening Pill.

Because the Gongsun family, unwilling to relinquish power, will be in disarray in the short term, even if the Bai family cannot swallow the Gongsun family, they can still fleece them handsomely.

However, the examiners for this sect assessment are in Tianxuan City. If we make too much noise, it will inevitably attract their attention.

“It’s not a good time for the Bai family to make any big moves, or it will attract the attention of that examiner,” Mu Zhian said.

Bai Yuanfeng nodded silently.

She was aware of this, which is why she hadn't made any moves in the past two days.

“But the Mu family can make a move,” Mu Zhian added.

Bai Yuanfeng was slightly taken aback, and subconsciously asked, "You want to annex the Gongsun family?"

"I don't have the idea of ​​swallowing up the Gongsun family, and I won't have it," Mu Zhian smiled. "But I do have the idea of ​​fleecing them, and it's very strong."

Gongsun Xiong was reluctant to relinquish power, but he was also seriously injured. If he didn't take this opportunity to make a killing, when would he?

Bai Yuanfeng stared silently at Mu Zhian.

She had worked so hard to lay the groundwork for so long, only to have it become someone else's dowry, which made her feel a little resentful.

But then I thought, this could also be considered part of my daughter's dowry in the future... Thinking about it this way, I felt a little better.

If Bai Ruoxi and Mu Zhian get together in the future, and the Mu and Bai families become in-laws, it seems they won't lose anything.

"You've gotten off easy, kid," Bai Yuanfeng said quietly.

Mu Zhian smiled and said, "I'm taking over this hot potato that Madam Bai can't handle. Isn't that a way of showing filial piety?"

Bai Yuanfeng chuckled.

How come I never noticed before that this spoiled brat from the Mu family was so clever... Could it be that he was just pretending all along?

Bai Yuanfeng sized up Mu Zhian, her beautiful eyes flickering slightly, with a look that suggested she was looking at her son-in-law.

“Madam Bai, there is still one thing I don’t understand,” Mu Zhian suddenly said.

"Go ahead," Bai Yuanfeng nodded.

"Why did the man in black know you were in Tianxuan City?" Mu Zhian asked.

According to Bai's father, Bai Yuanfeng grew up in Tianxuan City. Why would the people of the demon realm know that they also had accomplices in Tianxuan City?

"The demon realm has been laying spies in various places for a long time, and I am just one of them. Moreover, I only received the order from the demon realm this year, instructing me to prepare a base to support my companions."

Bai Yuanfeng was silent for a moment, then continued, "I don't know the specifics, but the Seventh Seat's intelligence network is extremely large. If it's her intelligence network, it wouldn't be surprising if they knew my identity."

"The seventh seat in the demon realm...?" Mu Zhian muttered to himself.

The man in black robes, and Bai Yuanfeng, both seemed to be informants for the seventh seat…

This is really strange. Tianxuan City is not far from the foot of Liangyi Sect's mountain... How exactly did the demon cultivators manage to do things secretly right under Liangyi Sect's nose?

Could it be that the seventh seat of the demon realm is located within the Liangyi Sect? Mu Zhian thought to himself, half-jokingly.

For some reason, I had a vague feeling that it was really possible.

He quickly collected his thoughts and said, "Madam Bai's family is quite happy. If she hopes to continue living a normal life, it would be better to keep her actions small in the future."

After saying that, Mu Zhian turned and walked towards the gate of the Bai residence.

He has made himself very clear. If Bai Yuanfeng listens, he should restrain himself from now on.

The alluring woman gazed at Mu Zhi'an. The silvery moonlight shone upon her, and the shadows of her three tails swayed slowly, making her appear exceptionally eerie.

Only after Mu Zhian's figure had completely disappeared from sight did she turn around and return to her room.

I had originally planned to visit Gongsun Xiong at the Gongsun family again tonight, but now that I think about it, Mu Zhian was right. I need to be more restrained during this period.

Since all her accomplices are dead, there's no need for her to try and take over Tianxuan City anymore.

Ultimately, if it weren't for the Seventh Seat's orders, who would want to be controlled by others?

at the same time.

"What do you plan to do with her?"

As Mu Zhian walked back, the shadow beside him suddenly twisted, and Wei Mengrou, dressed in a yellow dress, quietly appeared, staring at his profile and asking a question.

"Let's release her for now, and have Elder Ren keep an eye on her afterwards," Mu Zhian said quietly.

Bai Yuanfeng may have been testing him, but little did she know that Mu Zhian was also testing her.

If Bai Yuanfeng made a move while he was away, Wei Mengrou would naturally come out to stop her.

Bai Yuanfeng's true strength is probably more than just the Qi Refining Realm, but if they want to leave, Bai Yuanfeng can't stop them.

Once Lan Mulian leaves the Bai residence, she will immediately learn the identity of the third demon cultivator.

By then, the Bai family will be completely finished.

The conflict between demon cultivators and human cultivators is irreconcilable; harboring a demon cultivator is a grave sin that will be condemned by everyone.

"Do you plan to tell Lan Mulian about the demon cultivators?" Wei Mengrou asked.

Mu Zhian smiled and said, "The sect assessment is coming soon, and Senior Sister Lan doesn't have much time to focus on this. Besides, as long as Madam Bai stays in the Bai family, no one will notice her demonic aura."

"Hmm... However, the Heavenly Dao Qi somewhat suppresses the demonic Qi. When you get back, inform the servants to invite Ruoxi to the Mu family first thing tomorrow morning. Tell them I have something I'd like to discuss with her."

Wei Mengrou gave Mu Zhian a cold glance.

He said it was just to chat with Bai Ruoxi, but it probably won't be as simple as just chatting in the end.

Chapter 51 Miss Bai, I Want to See Your Tail 4.5K

The next morning.

Mu Zhian finished meditating all night and opened his eyes.

There was a soft knocking sound from outside.

Bai Ruoxi came so early in the morning... Mu Zhian said in a deep voice, "Come in."

Pushing open the door, a girl with an elegant demeanor walked into the room. Judging from her clothes, she seemed to be a maid of the Mu family... but why did I feel like I had never seen this maid before?

Mu Zhian looked at her a couple more times with some doubt.

If the Mu family had such a beautiful maid, he wouldn't be unaware of her.

"When did you come to the Mu family?" Mu Zhian asked, puzzled.

"I feel like I've never seen you before... but then again, I feel like I've seen you somewhere before..."

"That sounds like harassment," Wei Mengrou remarked casually, standing at the doorway.
