It turns out, they were the main characters.

Even before refining the Taixu Pill, Bai Ruoxi already possessed such an alluring demeanor. If she were to absorb the Taixu Pill in the future, both the Sword Palace Master and Bai Ruoxi's spiritual consciousnesses would reach the Dao Integration Realm. Just thinking about it is terrifying.

"A smile that could launch a thousand ships, she's only at the Void Returning Realm and she can already bewitch men. If she refines the Void Refining Pill in the future, she'll probably steal your heart away."

At this moment, a ray of clear light suddenly enveloped Mu Zhian, accompanied by heavenly music that lingered in his ears, quietly dispelling the alluring aura.

Mu Zhian turned his head and looked over, subconsciously saying, "Yao Meng? You're finally back."

Outside Liangyi Peak, Yao Meng stepped on the void with her delicate jade feet, stopping beside Mu Zhi'an. She looked down at him and smiled, "If I hadn't come, you probably would have turned into the shape that Gong Lian Yue likes in a few days."

Mu Zhian said helplessly, "I'm not that kind of person... Besides, Ruoxi is just a three-tailed fox, it's not that exaggerated."

"Oh?"

Yao Meng glanced at the maid beside him with a smile, then playfully blinked her beautiful green eyes and teased, "If that's the case, why has your innate furnace lost so much spiritual energy?"

"Could it be that you disposed of your own spiritual energy?"

I haven't directed or acted in anything like this in ages... Mu Zhian coughed lightly: "Where have you been all this time? I thought you'd run into some trouble."

In the past, Mu Zhian often took care of things himself, but later he simply didn't have the energy and had no choice but to give up this craft.

Yao Meng opened her palm, revealing thirteen round demon cores of different colors, each radiating a rich spiritual energy.

She smiled and said, "Luo Tan promised to provide the medicinal materials needed for the Tai Xu Pill, and all I need to do is find the demon core."

"I thought I would have to handle things myself after I went to the demon realm, but I didn't expect that the first seat of the demon realm would send me the demon core in less than a week."

The number one seat in the demon realm... Mu Zhian thought of the maid who followed the demon queen and understood slightly.

"When do we set off?" Mu Zhian asked.

"If you don't mind, we can head to Yuzhou in a little while."

Yao Meng's smile faded slightly, and she looked at Mu Zhi'an with a complicated expression.

“However, Luo Tan said before that she wanted to meet with you alone.”

Chapter 408 Innate Furnace + Innate Furnace = Complementary?

Luo Tan wants to see me alone...?

Upon hearing Yao Meng's words, Mu Zhian's first reaction was to feel guilty.

As the Empress of Yuzhou, who was born as a furnace cauldron like him and was suspected of being able to complement him, Mu Zhian's relationship with her had been somewhat ambiguous before, and now he naturally knew why she wanted to see him.

However, Mu Zhian hadn't expected that she would actually ask Yao Meng to bring it up.

That woman is really bold...

Mu Zhian asked calmly, "What do you think?"

In short, let's first throw the question at Yao Meng and see what Qingdi's attitude is...

Young Master Mu's awareness of anti-gank is already at its maximum.

“The Taixu Pill involves the secrets of the demon race’s evolution, so Luo Tan is very careful in refining it. That’s why he wanted to meet you to confirm whether you really have the bloodline of the three-tailed fox. It’s only natural for him to do so,” Yao Meng said with a smile.

She had actually suspected Luo Tan's motives, but upon careful consideration, given the noble status of the Medicine King in Yuzhou, what did it matter if he knew that Mu Zhian was a natural furnace cauldron?

Since she entered the Dao realm, this wasn't the first time Luo Tan had seen someone with a naturally formed furnace body like herself, but she had never been tempted by them.

As for appearance and looks, or even the auxiliary abilities brought by being born as a furnace, Luo Tan has no need for them at all.

After all, the Medicine Emperor is a Dao Integration Realm cultivator, standing at the very top of the world.

Further ascension requires the right timing, location, and people... Of course, the most important is the right people.

However, Luo Tan could not possibly know that Mu Zhian's innate furnace contained the possibility of breaking through to the Dao Integration Realm and ascending to immortality.

Mu Zhian nodded slightly and said, "If that's the case, I do need to go to Yuzhou, so that Senior Medicine Emperor can rest assured."

"Should we set off now?" Mu Zhian asked again.

"That's what I think, but it looks like you might have to wait a while before you can leave."

Yao Meng raised her head and gazed at the beautiful woman who had already survived the tribulation and was walking towards her through the void in front of Canghai Peak.

Mu Zhian also looked up and saw Miss Bai, whose bust size was the envy of all the women. Her white palace dress, adorned with red plum blossoms, fluttered in the cold wind, and her hair was disheveled in the wind, but it accentuated her beautiful and charming face.

Behind her, three illusory fox tails could be vaguely seen. At first glance, Mu Zhian seemed to see Bai Ruoxi, who was usually gentle, sensible and not good at internal strife. But upon closer inspection, he seemed to see the dignified and proud Sword Palace Master in her temperament.

There's even a subtle, captivating power that draws your gaze involuntarily.

Is it because Nai Xi is too big that attracts me, or is it because her three-tailed fox body has fully awakened after she has refined her spirit and returned to emptiness, and the charm emanating from her body attracts me...? Mu Zhian thought to himself.

"Mulang..."

Noticing Mu Zhian's gaze, Bai Ruoxi blushed and walked up to him, calling out sweetly.

Mu Zhian nodded slightly, a look of satisfaction on his face.

Seeing Bai Ruoxi refine her spirit and return to emptiness gave him a sense of harvest joy, like nurturing a beautiful woman.

However, before Mu Zhian could immerse himself in Nai Xi's tender embrace, her gaze fell directly on Yao Meng, and she said with a light smile, "Is Qing Di finished with your work? I thought you had forgotten about Mu Lang after you ascended to immortality."

A cold, faint laugh immediately came from the summit.

"Breaking through to the Dao Integration stage is simply a matter of following the natural course of events."

Yao Meng's long, black hair cascaded down her back. She knelt down and placed her hand on Mu Zhi'an's face. Her voice, as beautiful as heavenly music, carried a hint of tenderness: "For me, the only thing that is truly important is him."

Those alluring emerald green eyes gazed at Mu Zhi'an, and Mu Zhi'an's image seemed to be reflected in them.

"You should understand my feelings, right, Mu Lang?"

The final title was like a critical hit, striking Bai Ruoxi squarely in the chest, causing her full breasts to rise and fall slightly.

She used to call Mu Zhi'an that in front of other girls, but she never expected that she would have such a day.

Bai Ruoxi stared intently at Mu Zhian, gripping her skirt tightly until her knuckles turned white from the excessive force.

If I had to say, among all the women Mu Zhi'an knew, only Yao Meng could rightfully call him "Mu Lang".

After all, Mu Zhian and Yao Meng had been married in the Holy King City before.

Although it wasn't the person who got married at the time, the marriage was still witnessed by the world.

Thinking of this, a bold idea suddenly flashed through Bai Ruoxi's mind.

Mu Zhian and Yao Meng's marriage was nothing more than a 'deceptive marriage'.

If I could show Yao Meng the projection stone of my marriage to Mu Zhian right now... wouldn't it be an easy way to 'kill' this fairy who is currently looking so nonchalant?

That's right... As long as there's 'projection' evidence of marriage, even this woman has nothing to say!

Seeing that the topic was getting dangerous, Mu Zhian suddenly spoke up: "Ruoxi, I may need to go to Yuzhou with Yao Meng in the next few days."

If this dangerous topic isn't stopped soon, these two might actually start fighting on Liangyi Peak...

However, a fight is unlikely to break out. After all, although the sect leader has never left the back mountain, she should have been secretly keeping an eye on everything here...

Mu Zhian always held a mixture of longing, awe, and admiration for that stunningly beautiful woman shrouded in mystery.

Bai Ruoxi raised her moist, beautiful eyes to look at Mu Zhian and said softly, "Is it about the Taixu Pill?"

Mu Zhian nodded: "This is not only for me, but also so that you can advance to become a nine-tailed fox as soon as possible."

In the past, whenever Bai Ruoxi heard the words "nine-tailed fox," she would give Mu Zhian a shy, resentful look, because she knew he was after the "fox-eared girl."

However, upon hearing the word 'nine-tailed fox,' the delicate young lady's beautiful eyes brightened slightly.

Based on her understanding of the nine-tailed fox, once one ascends to the form of a nine-tailed celestial fox, one can freely travel between different age groups, and even exhibit fox-like characteristics if desired...

If Makoto could truly become a nine-tailed fox...

"Ahem... If it's all for the sake of restoring Mu Lang to his original state as soon as possible, and even improving his talent or even his realm, then there's no other way."

Bai Ruoxi reached out her slender hand and grasped Mu Zhian's small hand. Looking down at the handsome young man, she said softly, "Mu Lang, you must take good care of yourself while you are away."

Yao Meng smiled gently and said, "Don't worry, I'm here, there's nothing to worry about."

Bai Ruoxi glanced at Yao Meng but remained silent.

It was precisely because the Azure Emperor was accompanying her that she was so worried.

Don't be fooled by this woman's noble and elegant fairy-like demeanor now. However, when she was practicing dual cultivation with Mu Zhi'an one night not long ago, she was quite unrestrained and reckless.

Bai Ruoxi's gaze fell on Mu Zhian's storage ring, and she said, "Lingxuan and I have stored some of the medicinal materials and spirit minerals needed for the Taixu Pill in the storage ring in advance. Mu Lang must keep that storage ring safe."

Mu Zhian smiled and nodded, saying, "I know."

A few days ago, Ye Lingxuan and Bai Ruoxi each went to the forbidden zone and the sword palace to prepare the materials needed for the Taixu Pill. Now, with the addition of the demon core that Yao Meng brought, the materials needed for the Taixu Pill have been prepared.

At this moment, Yao Meng smiled and said, "If there's anything you want to say, let's talk about it slowly when we get back."

After saying that, a teleportation array appeared beneath her feet, and the next moment, she transformed into a wisp of green light and left Liangyi Peak.

Bai Ruoxi's beautiful eyes flickered slightly as she stared at the array beneath Yao Meng's feet. Her initial excitement at Mu Zhi'an's potential evolution into a nine-tailed celestial fox gradually cooled down.

The ability to summon and open the 'void' at will, and even rewrite time, is a major characteristic of 'Ascension'.

Mu Zhian watched Yao Meng leave. He waited a moment until Wei Mengrou also stepped into the formation before gently asking, "Ruoxi, why do you look so down? Is something on your mind?"

"Could it be because of Yao Meng's passing?"

Bai Ruoxi gently shook her head and whispered, "After the Azure Emperor ascends to immortality, Mu Lang's safety will be more guaranteed. I should be happy."

That's what I said, but I still felt a little wronged.

The usually delicate beauty now had her lips pursed and her beautiful eyes moist, making her even more pitiful.

Hmm, it gave him the urge to continue teasing Ruoxi in bed, and then watch the beauty bite her lip, her eyes glistening with tears, staring at him with a wronged and resentful expression...

"Mu Lang, what mischief are you plotting?" Bai Ruoxi stared at Mu Zhi'an with a hint of resentment in her beautiful eyes.

Whenever Mu Zhian showed that 'longing' expression, she knew that the other party must be up to something bad.

No, the more I think about it, the more tempted I get. I really want to take Ruoxi back and tease her right now... Mu Zhian barely managed to gather his thoughts, coughed lightly, and said, "Ruoxi, you should be able to switch to another spiritual consciousness at any time now, right?"

"That's possible... but why is Makoto suddenly asking this?"

Bai Ruoxi tilted her head slightly and hesitated.

"I want to give you a one-of-a-kind gift," Mu Zhian whispered.

Bai Ruoxi's eyes flickered, and she blinked in confusion before asking, "What gift?"
