It turns out, they were the main characters.

"He doesn't like me following him around; it'll only cause him trouble," Lin Ling wrote in her notebook for Shang Yanfei to see.

Unlike Shang Yanfei, Lin Ling wore a white dress full of ancient style, a plum-colored jacket, a slightly fluffy skirt, and her long hair was draped down without any adornment... Her snow-white and flawless jade neck was not adorned with any jewelry, exuding an ancient and elegant beauty, which perfectly complemented the sect leader who was wearing a black dress.

However, there was a hint of loneliness on her little face.

Caring for empty-nest children starts with you and me.

"He wouldn't say that about you." Shang Yanfei gazed at Lin Ling for a moment, then shook her head and chuckled softly.

After all, who could resist a naive girl who clings to you and unconditionally trusts you?

However, as soon as she finished speaking, Shang Yanfei chuckled and continued, "But that's true, it's true that he would be in a bit of a predicament if you were by his side."

Looking at Lin Ling's lonely face, she said leisurely, "When you are by his side, he needs to take care of your feelings and can't easily get close to other girls. But if you are not here... plus the fact that the Azure Emperor has returned to Yaochi these past two days, I'm afraid no one can stop him now."

Lin Ling raised her watery eyes, glanced at Shang Yanfei, and held up her little notebook: "Would he do bad things to other women?"

She hesitated slightly: "But it seems he went to attend the Blue Clan's ancestral worship ceremony..."

Shang Yanfei smiled but remained silent.

"Sometimes it's not necessarily his initiative. If you knew the secret of the innate furnace, there would be more people who take the initiative than you can imagine."

This is indeed the truth. If female cultivators outside knew the secret of Mu Zhi'an being born as a furnace cauldron, even if Mu Zhi'an didn't take the initiative, countless others would.

"Just like when you were with him in the past, didn't you ever use the power of words to say something to him or do anything bad?"

Lin Ling paused for a moment, seemingly recalling the scene after she used her Word of Power on Mu Zhian a few days ago. Her cheeks quickly flushed, and she silently turned her face away.

But in his mind, he was thinking about what might be happening to Mu Zhian in the Blue Clan.

Although she didn't want to put Mu Zhian in a difficult position, as Shang Yanfei said, what would happen if it wasn't him who took the initiative, but someone else who did something to him, and Mu Zhian became the passive party?

Imagine Mu Zhi'an being abused by a strange woman on an unfamiliar large bed...

Lin Ling's delicate eyebrows furrowed slightly.

"Among the elders of the Blue Clan, there is no shortage of beautiful and sexy women. What would happen if they discovered his natural furnace?"

"What would happen if the Azure Emperor went to see him after he finished dealing with the matters at Yaochi?"

"If I remember correctly, the Demon Queen should be in seclusion, but what if we order our servants to take her away during the ancestral worship ceremony?"

Shang Yanfei's tone was calm and pleasant, but every word pierced Lin Ling's heart like an arrow. Her small hands instinctively gripped the white skirt, and she slowly opened her lifeless red eyes.

Then, she parted her red lips slightly and said, "For the next month, Mu Zhian will have no desires or wants."

At the same time, Mu Zhian, who was in seclusion cultivating, suddenly opened his eyes. Feeling the unprecedented purity of his mind, he was stunned for a moment, and then typed a screen full of question marks.

"What the heck? What's going on? How did I suddenly get restricted by the Word of Power again?"

After a while, Mu Zhian seemed to understand something and was speechless for a moment.

While he was sitting in the Blue Clan, a pot fell from the sky. He hadn't done anything yet, but Lin Ling inexplicably cast a spell on him.

This is somewhat like locking the bus.

Of course, Mu Zhian isn't doing anything now, but that doesn't mean he won't do anything in the future.

These past two days, he has been considering searching for the Lan Mulian sisters after entering the ancestral land.

Those two stunning sisters, one cold and one warm, had already made Mu Zhian miss them not long ago.

"After the trip to the ancestral land is over, let's go to Liangyi Peak first..." Mu Zhian thought to himself, closed his eyes, and entered a meditative state again.

Meanwhile, Lin Ling, after thinking for a moment, was about to say something again.

However, at that moment, an index finger gently touched Lin Ling's red lips.

With a faint smile on her face, Shang Yanfei said softly, "You are different from any other woman. As long as you are by his side, he will take care of your feelings."

Indeed, Lin Ling is the only one in this world who is different, because she blindly trusts Mu Zhi'an. No one can bear to let such a girl be hurt, not even Mu Zhi'an.

Lin Ling gently shook her head and held up her notebook: "I believe him; he went to take care of important business."

"Then what was with your Word of Power just now?" Shang Yanfei asked teasingly.

“To protect him from being bullied by other women.”

Miss Linglong is truly kind-hearted, and the story behind her is heartwarming...

Then, she looked at Shang Yanfei, hesitated slightly, and wrote again: "I'm going to find him."

Although he believed Mu Zhian, since Shang Yanfei didn't, he would let her see for herself whether Mu Zhian was indeed going to the Blue Clan's ancestral land to do something worthwhile.

Moreover, after he refines his spirit and returns to emptiness, the third portion of Heavenly Dao Qi should also be handed over to him.

Thinking of this, Lin Ling's red lips parted slightly, and she whispered something. The next moment, her figure disappeared from sight.

Shang Yanfei gazed silently, beside her a cup of steaming tea and a bronze mirror.

After a while, she lowered her eyes slightly, took out a small notebook, and began to leisurely continue writing the sequel to "The Art of Husband Management".

……

"What on earth is this Ling'er up to? Why did she suddenly use her Word of Power on me again?"

At this moment, after finishing his meditation, Mu Zhian finally had time to feel the changes in his state of mind.

He sat cross-legged in a small house in Feiqin Garden, feeling the unprecedented clarity of his mind, and his mood was somewhat complicated.

Word magic, this spell is truly amazing, it has the power to turn the rotten into the miraculous.

Lin Ling didn't understand cultivation techniques or magic; she was only proficient in the art of words.

But this one method can evolve into all sorts of magical arts.

If Mu Zhian knew the power of words, he could create all sorts of amazing things.

However, it didn't really matter if he was restricted by the Word of Power, since he had just finished with Ye Qingxin not long ago, and he was going to enter the ancestral land tomorrow. At this moment, Mu Zhian had no intention of getting close to any woman.

Regardless, this Ling'er definitely needs some discipline... I won't hold back next time.

Mu Zhian silently thought about this.

……

The Eastern Continent is vast; its territory is even larger than the other two continents combined.

Therefore, there are actually many unknown and mysterious places in the Eastern Continent that have never been discovered.

Located in a vast land filled with a chaotic atmosphere, the continuous undulating mountains exude an ancient aura.

Within these mountains and rivers dwell many incredibly powerful magical beasts. With just a breath, they can cause mountains and rivers to collapse, their aura is awe-inspiring.

It should be understood that magical beasts are different from cultivators. Their physical bodies are inherently powerful, and few cultivators of the same realm can defeat them in a fight.

However, these ferocious and terrifying monsters slowed down as they passed through a certain village, proceeding cautiously without making a sound.

The village is somewhat remote, with fewer than a few hundred residents. In the village, a peach tree in full bloom silently unfolds its pink petals, which is extremely charming.

This peach tree existed before the village was built. At that time, a monk in the village discovered its power and did not reject them. Therefore, he asked the villagers to move to the peach tree to build the village and seek its protection.

"The Immortal Lord is dead, and the Supreme Dragon King has died suddenly. When you leave the Eastern Continent, remember to remind the other gods not to cause trouble in the Nine Provinces, otherwise I will not be able to save you."

A woman of exceptional beauty stood quietly beneath the peach blossoms, gazing up at the tree that seemed to support the entire world and exude an aura of chaos, and spoke softly.

The woman wore a black dress that suited her personality, her hair was tied up with a jade hairpin, and strands of hair fell down to accentuate her pure and innocent face.

The few strands of hair that fell across her face added a touch of languid beauty to her appearance.

Mu Wanwan, the messenger of the Sabbath, is an Eastern Continent cultivator who carries out the 'decree' of Heaven.

It can be said that her actions during the Sabbath represented the will of Heaven.

"Understood, Your Excellency!" A cultivator from another realm immediately responded respectfully from behind.

Then, after a slight hesitation, he glanced at the carriage under the peach tree and asked, "Where is the divine messenger planning to go?"

Mu Wanwan raised her hand and gently picked up a peach blossom, her eyes filled with amusement, and said quietly, "I have important matters to attend to, so don't worry about it."

……

Yaochi Sacred Land.

"The Lan Clan's ancestral worship ceremony is truly more spectacular than ever before. It seems that the one who received the Lan Clan's inheritance at the last ancestral worship ceremony was Lan Wu, the son of the Lan Clan's patriarch."

Inside the main hall of Yaochi, several elders of Yaochi sat in the magnificent hall. They had recently finalized the allocation of resources for the young disciples of Yaochi, and had been quite relaxed these past few days.

Furthermore, with the return of the Azure Emperor to Yaochi, the Queen Mother of Yaochi specially ordered the preparation of a specially brewed fine wine.

"The Blue Clan was once at least on par with Yaochi in terms of power, so naturally they had to hold a grand ancestral worship ceremony. Moreover, the spirit dragon descended upon the Blue Clan's ancestral land some time ago, so the Blue Clan probably wanted to take this opportunity to showcase the strength of a major family and attract nearby sects."

A female elder standing nearby said with a smile.

At this moment, Yao Xin suddenly asked with doubt, "Why haven't I seen the Holy Maiden today? She finally made it back to Yaochi, and I was planning to give her a proper welcome today."

"The Holy Maiden seems to be somewhat interested in the ancestral worship ceremony, and she left Yaochi last night," said the Queen Mother of Yaochi.

"Interested in the ancestral worship ceremony? Probably because Mu Zhian is there," Yao Xin muttered.

No one knows what kind of bewitching potion Mu Zhian gave that Qingdi sister, so that she was completely indifferent to Yaochi and left again after only two days of returning.

"I really don't know what the Holy Maiden sees in him."

"Yao Xin, you mustn't be unreasonable."

The female elder beside her immediately gave a light reprimand, then glanced in the direction of the Queen Mother of the West, her tone tinged with apology: "Queen Mother, Yao Xin is still immature, I'm sorry..."

The Queen Mother of Yaochi smiled and shook her head, saying, "Yao Xin, it's fine if you act like this in front of us, but you must not be rude in front of young friend Mu. If you offend the Holy Maiden, she may not hold it against you, but she will probably never speak to you again."

Yao Xin turned her head away awkwardly, leaving only her innocent profile, and gave a cold "hmm".

The Queen Mother of the West did not pay any attention. At this moment, someone next to her suddenly said casually, "I have heard these past two days that the destruction of the Eastern Continent spaceship seems to be related to young friend Mu."

These words immediately piqued the curiosity of several elders in Yaochi.

"Although the Immortal Lord and the Supreme Dragon King use technology to aid their cultivation, they are still at the Dao Integration Realm. During the Sabbath, they are also protected by the rules of heaven and earth. There is no way they could have been killed by Mu Zhi'an..."

"This matter is indeed somewhat unbelievable..."

The elders began to discuss amongst themselves, but the Queen Mother of the Jade Pool had a thoughtful look in her eyes.

Ever since she learned that Mu Zhian was a born furnace, she felt that the boy's identity was increasingly mysterious. Now, there are even more outrageous rumors that Mu Zhian killed two alien star gods.

The Queen Mother of Yaochi regained her senses slightly and transmitted her voice to a servant beside her: "Send someone to the Great Qian Dynasty. I want to find out about the Mu family's past in Tianxuan City."
