Since the Holy Maiden values Mu Zhi'an so highly and has been busy with the affairs of Yaochi lately, she must be concerned about what has happened to Mu Zhi'an within the sect.
If nothing unexpected happens, the Holy Maiden sought her out for this very reason.
……
Deep within the sacred land of Yaochi, there is a pavilion where the sound of flowing springs can be heard nearby.
"Yao Yue, you've been in the Liangyi Sect for a while now, only returning a few days ago. Do you know if anything interesting has happened in the Liangyi Sect recently?"
Yao Meng's voice had the texture of jade being struck, gentle and soothing, and her beautiful green eyes gazed at the Holy Maiden of Yaochi.
As expected, she asked about this matter... Yao Yue smiled gently and charmingly as if to say what interesting things have happened in the Liangyi Sect recently, it seems to be the alchemy competition after the Ascension Conference. Young Master Mu really made a name for himself back then.
The Holy Maiden said she wanted to know what had happened in the Liangyi Sect recently, but actually she just wanted to see what Mu Zhian had been doing within the Liangyi Sect.
And coincidentally, Yaochi Saintess, who had been in the Liangyi Sect for some time, knew more or less about these things.
Yao Meng crossed her arms over her chest, a faint smile playing on her lips: "Tell me about it."
……
As dusk fell, Mu Zhian and Lei Jiana followed a disciple into the sacred land of Yaochi.
"It seems that Yaochi doesn't welcome me very much. Will I be unable to leave Yaochi after entering it?"
A soft, pleasant voice came from beside me.
Regina glanced around casually, her pale gold dress billowing as she followed not far behind the Yaochi disciple who was leading the way, riding her sword.
She naturally knew that she would not be welcomed in the Yaochi Holy Land. In the Southern Wilderness, she was a Holy Maiden, second only to the Emperor, but in the Yaochi Holy Land... her status as the Holy Maiden of the Southern Wilderness would only be a burden.
After all, when the Azure Emperor returned to the Dao Integration Realm, he was obstructed by all means. The mastermind, the First Demon Emperor, was dead, but the shadows of the Southern Wilderness and the Western Regions were behind this plot.
Mu Zhian waved his hand and laughed, "It's not that bad. Not to mention that the Southern Wilderness has nothing to do with you, even if it did, with your wedding approaching, they won't make things difficult for you."
Regina's beautiful eyes flickered slightly, revealing a pitiful and sickly look. She raised her eyes and said softly, "If I really encounter danger in Yaochi, will Young Master Mu protect me?"
"I feel that your tea ceremony is not as fragrant as Nai Xi's..." Mu Zhi'an complained, "You're already close to the Void Returning Realm, right? If we really encounter danger, it's not certain who will protect whom."
He paused for a moment, then continued, "Besides, you are someone I brought, so no matter what, I will guarantee that you will leave Yaochi Holy Land safely afterward."
"What if the Azure Emperor is unwilling?" Regina glanced at him and asked with a smile.
“She won’t,” Mu Zhian said with a smile.
The Southern Wilderness is not united; the Three Pillar Gods alone have already split into three factions. Moreover, his trip to Yaochi with Regina was with Yao Meng's tacit approval. Yao Meng certainly has this kind of vision.
“If she tries to stop you from leaving, I’m confident I can persuade her,” Mu Zhian continued.
To persuade a powerful being at the Dao Integration Realm… Regina glared at him, then covered her mouth and chuckled: “The Azure Emperor may seem kind and gentle, but he won’t easily change his mind once he’s made up his mind. Young Master Mu is truly confident in himself.”
"On another note, you and the Azure Emperor are Daoist partners, and you are about to get married... Why would she allow you to be intimate with other girls?"
Regina suddenly remembered Mu Zhian's various actions within the Liangyi Sect during this period and couldn't help but ask, "And I heard that half a month ago, you went to the Liangyi Sect from the Yaochi Holy Land, right? During your time in the sect, you first went to the Pilgrimage Hall to admire the flowers with the Ye family sisters, and then accompanied Miss Bai to Canghai Peak."
“A few days ago, you seemed to have gone to Tianxuan City with your maid. Does the Azure Emperor not care about these things at all…?”
Back then, I was all thanks to Sister Qingdi who flattered me through Ruoxi, so why would she care... Mu Zhian said, "A sister is a sister, and a Daoist partner is a Daoist partner. They are not the same. Miss Rejana has a rather deep misunderstanding about me."
Lingxuan and Qian'er are my younger sisters, Ruoxi is my Daoist partner, and Qingdi is my wife.
As for senior sister, she is naturally senior sister. Sister Fei Ying... she was the older sister next door who never looked down on him for being a playboy.
"In short, I only have one Daoist partner," Mu Zhian said.
Regina scoffed, a faint smile curving her lips: "You should tell that to the Azure Emperor."
Mu Zhian also chuckled.
What's there to explain...? Why would I go and tell Yao Meng that I've been spending all my time traveling with girls lately and have had so much fun that I don't want to leave?
Isn't this just handing over all his weaknesses to Yao Meng?
As long as he doesn't mention it, and Regina doesn't bring it up either, Yao Meng naturally won't ask any more questions.
After all, she had been busy preparing for the wedding and the hidden plans behind the wedding at Yaochi Holy Land, so she couldn't possibly have time to take care of things at Liangyi Sect.
Although that Azure Emperor sister is clever, if I keep my mouth shut, do you think she'll catch me red-handed? She's underestimating my abilities.
"Young Master Mu, the Holy Maiden requests your presence in the secluded pavilion."
As the two were chatting, a respectful voice came from not far ahead, and a female disciple looked at Mu Zhi'an with a smile.
"As for Miss Regina, Yaochi has prepared a small courtyard for you to stay in for the next few days. Someone will come to guide you there soon."
Why am I being asked to go to the attic instead of the main hall to meet you...? Mu Zhian asked tentatively, "Does this lady know why the Azure Emperor wants to see me?"
"I don't know the specifics either; Young Master Mu will find out when he arrives," the female disciple said.
Since things had come to this point, Mu Zhian didn't press further and nodded slightly: "I understand."
After bidding farewell to Regina, Mu Zhian flew straight towards the deeper part of Yaochi on his sword, while pondering what Yao Meng was up to.
Whether it's because of wedding preparations or something else, the Yaochi Sacred Site is noticeably more lively than in the past today.
Mu Zhian entered the depths of Yaochi without any hindrance and arrived at the pavilion where Yao Meng lived.
Near the pavilion was a divine pool, its surface bubbling with rich spiritual energy. The surrounding area was shrouded in mist. Just outside, one could see many disciples and elders of the Yaochi Holy Land, but now, after entering this area, not a single person could be seen.
As Mu Zhian walked up the stairs and was about to push open the door to the attic, he heard a clear and melodious soft voice coming from inside.
"I thought you were lingering in the Liangyi Sect, already intoxicated by Miss Bai's embrace or fallen at the feet of the Reincarnation Empress."
"Yao Meng is really perceptive; she's almost always right," Mu Zhi'an thought to himself.
It's true that some women were captivated by Ruoxi's embrace, and it's not uncommon for them to fall head over heels for Lingxuan...
"May I come in?" Mu Zhian asked.
"Wait a minute, let me pack my things."
"You can say what you want to say outside first."
Although Yao Meng's voice remained unchanged, Mu Zhian felt an inexplicable sense of crisis.
If I don't handle this situation well, the Azure Emperor might use my head as a stool tonight...
"Sister Qingdi, you've misunderstood me... I've been in seclusion these past few days, hoping to improve my strength as much as possible so I can be of some help to you." Mu Zhian expressed a strong desire to survive.
After a long silence, he gave a reserved "hmm": "You've advanced to the sixth rank of Refining Spirit in just over half a month. It seems you've been in seclusion cultivating all this time."
"The innate furnace has really been a great help to you," Yao Meng said meaningfully.
"After all, I haven't been meditating and cultivating much, so it's time to try pushing my limits occasionally," Mu Zhian said with a smile.
In fact, he didn't spend much time in seclusion during this period. To be honest, if he were to cultivate normally, it might not take him a year or two to advance to the first rank.
The fact that he was able to reach the sixth level of the Divine Refinement Realm so quickly was purely a 'gift' given to him by Luo Tan before he left the Liangyi Sect.
However, everything should be said in the right context. If he were to answer like that now, Mu Zhian would probably have to spend the next two weeks in a dark room contemplating life.
Yao Meng said meaningfully, "Your talent is not bad. If you are willing to focus on cultivation, your strength will naturally improve very quickly."
"However, being able to advance a rank within half a month suggests that it wasn't due to secluded cultivation, but rather some kind of fortuitous encounter."
"If I had to say something, it wouldn't be wrong," Mu Zhian hummed in response, giving a vague reply.
The spiritual energy bestowed upon Luo Tan by his innate furnace can be considered a stroke of luck.
"I've tidied up your room, please come in."
Hearing Yao Meng's soft and soothing voice, Mu Zhian placed his hand in front of the door, about to push it open.
Then, he quickly fell into deep thought after hearing Yao Meng's next sentence.
"No one will disturb you here. You can stay peacefully with the Cleansing Vines. We'll leave this place together on our wedding day. If all goes well, we might even be able to get married right away—"
crunch.
As soon as he finished speaking, Mu Zhian pushed open the door. Inside the clean and bright wooden house, Yao Meng sat on a wooden chair, wearing a long, light blue dress that resembled a thin veil. Her fair and translucent skin seemed to be faintly visible beneath the fabric, but she was shrouded in a misty haze, making it difficult to see her clearly and ultimately impossible to discern her true form.
Beneath the green skirt, her plump, slender, snow-white legs were slightly together, her jade feet were crystal clear, and her black hair cascaded down like a waterfall, simply tied up with a ribbon, adding to her otherworldly aura.
Beside her, two green vines twisted and turned as if dancing a seaweed dance, making the scene seem somewhat out of place.
Mu Zhian hesitated and asked, "Why are you using the Purifying Seed now?"
Yao Meng smiled innocently: "It's just entertainment, don't worry about it."
When you say "entertainment," do you mean I entertain you, or you entertain me...?
There's a big difference between actively asking for something and passively asking for something.
Yao Meng gazed at Mu Zhi'an with a half-smile and said, "You look much better. It seems you've had quite a few opportunities after the alchemy competition."
"A natural furnace for cultivation, truly an excellent physique for dual cultivation."
Mu Zhian's heart skipped a beat, and he immediately changed the subject, saying, "What did you mean when you said that if everything goes smoothly, we can get married? Does that mean that no one will take this opportunity to cause trouble?"
“Someone will definitely take this opportunity to make a move,” Yao Meng said confidently.
Just as Shang Yanfei was invincible within the Liangyi Sect, Yao Meng, with the support of the array, was unmatched by anyone of the same cultivation level within the Liangyi Sect.
Therefore, the first step in stopping the Azure Emperor from ascending to immortality is to find a way to break the formation of the Jade Pool Holy Land.
Yao Meng revealed a charming smile, but her voice gradually turned cold: "However, I am confident that I can wipe them out before they can act in the shadows."
Mu Zhian nodded slightly, as if suddenly realizing something.
Hmm... In other words, Yao Meng was able to eliminate these people and remove potential threats within Dongzhou before the hidden rats could make their move, without disrupting the wedding.
In other words, it is highly unlikely that anyone will take the opportunity to cause trouble on the wedding day, because those internal 'potential threats' will be eliminated before they can act.
Therefore, there is a very high chance that I will marry Yao Meng...
Now there's another problem: Yao Meng knows that Luo Tan is a natural furnace vessel, and she seems to have guessed that she met with me privately...
However, she might not know that my advancement to the sixth rank of Refining Spirit was due to Luo Tan's innate furnace, otherwise she would have already locked me up in a dark room—
Mu Zhian's thoughts suddenly went blank for a moment.
After calm analysis and a little thought, he suddenly looked up at the Pure World Vines in the room.
Oh my god, so I'm done for.
