It turns out, they were the main characters.

Why does it feel like she already knows what I'm thinking...? Mu Zhian felt a chill in his heart. Sometimes, it's not a good thing for a woman to know you too well.

At this moment, Shang Yanfei suddenly said calmly, "Why don't you go out for a bit? I want to have a private talk with the Azure Emperor."

Mu Zhian subconsciously looked at Yao Meng, who simply nodded slightly at him.

Mu Zhian could only sigh softly and decide to leave this place for the time being.

……

Southern Wilderness.

The secret agents of the Great Qian Dynasty had already secretly traveled to the Southern Wilderness and the Western Regions several days ago.

Recently, spies have already arrived in the Southern Wilderness.

The Great Qian Dynasty is actually quite powerful. Although it is a human dynasty, it is closely related to the fortune of the Eastern Continent. There are quite a few cultivators in the court, and the dynasty has a group of secret agents who are dedicated to clearing out people and matters that are inconvenient to deal with openly.

The spies who went to the Southern Wilderness and Yunzhou and other places were sent out from this secret service.

Guided by a servant from the Southern Wilderness, the young spy stepped into the celestial palace and then lowered his voice to say, "Please go in and inform them that the Grand Preceptor of the Great Qian Dynasty wrote a letter to the Southern Wilderness a few days ago. You only need to tell the God of Space that I am Gu Chang from the Dark Department."

The attendant from the Southern Wilderness sized the man up a few times, then nodded slightly: "Please wait here for a moment."

He entered the depths of the Southern Wilderness Temple. After nearly a quarter of an hour, a servant from the Southern Wilderness Temple came out of the temple and made a gesture of invitation: "Lady Xueyi invites you."

As he spoke, he glanced at the young man from the secret service of the Great Qian Dynasty. This young man, named Gu Chang, looked to be about 23 or 4 years old. His face was covered, but it was not hard to tell from his eyes that he was definitely a young talent, and his status in the secret service would probably not be low.

Otherwise, they wouldn't have been sent to carry out such an important mission as negotiating with the Southern Wilderness.

Before long, Gu Chang walked into the depths of the temple, stepping on the soft lichen. At the far end, he saw the breathtakingly beautiful God of the Southern Wilderness.

His heart fluttered for a moment, then he immediately reacted, raised his hand in a bow, and performed the proper etiquette: "Greetings, Lady Xueyi."

Faced with a powerful being at the Dao Integration Realm, who was rumored to be the strongest god in the Southern Wilderness, he dared not raise his head to blaspheme the deity, no matter how outstanding and beautiful she was.

She sat high on the throne, her long platinum blonde hair piled up behind her head. Her beautiful and sexy body was hidden under an extremely gorgeous white dress, and her sexy crystal sandals tapped softly on the ground.

Although he has a gentle demeanor, based on his years of experience, Gu Chang judged that he was a dangerous being who would devour people without spitting out the bones.

Even knowing the danger she poses, one still can't help but be drawn to her.

Xue Yi languidly propped her cheek with one hand, looking down at him from her high position. She parted her red lips slightly and said, "Gu Boxing sent me a letter not long ago, saying that the affairs of the Great Qian Dynasty were originally unrelated to the Southern Wilderness. However, if the Azure Emperor intervenes when he is refining part of the Great Qian's national fortune, I will step in to stop him."

Gu Chang's face lit up with joy: "Thank you, senior!"

He didn't expect that without uttering a single word of the negotiation he had prepared along the way, the other party would agree to the conditions proposed by Gu Boxin.

In this way, once he returns, his position in the Great Qian Dark Division will likely be unassailable.

"Afterwards, a portion of the Great Qian's national fortune will be transferred to the Southern Wilderness. This is the condition set by Gu Boxing, so you don't need to thank me."

Xueyi casually remarked, "However, I cannot be certain whether the Great Qian Dynasty is colluding with the Azure Emperor to lure me away from the Southern Wilderness and then ambush me. Therefore, I need a bit of sincerity from the Great Qian Dynasty."

"What do you mean, senior...?"

Xue Yi tapped her knuckles lightly on the edge of the chair, lowered her eyes slightly, and said softly, "Gu Boxing wouldn't be so foolish as to think he could refine the Great Qian's national fortune by relying solely on the Southern Wilderness, would he? Who else is he cooperating with?"

Gu Chang hesitated.

Xueyi paused slightly in her tapping motion, looking down at him. "Now that the Azure Emperor has ascended to immortality, do you really think I alone can stop her? If no other powerful figures help, then this matter will be considered as if you never mentioned it. You can go back now."

"Show them out," Xueyi said calmly.

"and many more--"

Gu Chang steeled his resolve and said urgently, "The missions of the Great Qian Dark Division are all sent by the Grand Preceptor. I only know that he sent people to two other places."

Xueyi tilted her head slightly, revealing a charming smile: "Then make a list and give it to my maid later."

Upon hearing this, Gu Chang hesitated for a moment before nodding in agreement.

Right now, they need to seek cooperation, which is unavoidable. The intimidation brought by the Azure Emperor is too great. If they don't cooperate with other forces in various states, the Imperial Advisor will probably be noticed by the Azure Emperor before he even refines the national fortune.

Fortunately, the other party is the God of Space, who already has a grudge against Mu Zhian and the others, so there is no need to worry about her plotting against them.

Just as Gu Chang was thinking of this, a maidservant handed him a brush, ink, paper, and inkstone.

He picked up his brush, ground the ink, and wrote down several names on the paper.

……

Nearly fifteen minutes later, Mu Zhian, who had been anxiously waiting outside the hot spring, finally saw Yao Meng, who was chatting with the sect leader inside the hot spring.

She seemed to be in much better condition than before she came, which was hard to imagine what Shang Yanfei had said to her. Before coming, she had even wanted to take Mu Zhian away directly, but now she had calmed down all of a sudden.

Upon seeing Yao Meng emerge, Mu Zhi'an immediately approached her and asked, "What did the Sect Master say to you?"

Yao Meng glanced at him and said with a smile, "You want to know?"

Those beautiful blue eyes were like lakes filled with sparkling gems, bright and captivating.

Mu Zhian nodded slightly, wondering what the sect leader had said to her that made Yao Meng, who was originally in a very bad mood, look so cheerful now.

Yao Meng suddenly beckoned to him, her entire body levitating in mid-air. Beneath her emerald gauze skirt, a pair of plump, snow-white long legs were faintly visible. Her soft, soothing voice carried a hint of amusement: "Come here."

When Mu Zhian approached her, Yao Meng gently stroked the boy's face and said, "Actually, just as you said, Shang Yanfei has been kind to both of us, so it's normal for you to want to repay her."

"Similarly, she has also been kind to me, so it's not convenient for me to stop you now that she's in trouble."

Does this mean she agrees to let me help the sect leader resolve the issue of the karmic fire...?

This doesn't seem like Yao Meng at all. What exactly did the sect leader talk to her about just now?

Yao Meng seemed to know what Mu Zhi'an was thinking. She raised the corners of her mouth slightly and deliberately kept him in suspense: "As for what your sect leader sister said to me just now..."

Mu Zhian subconsciously looked up at her, his attention immediately drawn to her.

Yao Meng gazed at him tenderly, her emerald green eyes filled with alluring charm.

She didn't answer, but instead pressed her full, rosy lips to Mu Zhi'an's ear and whispered in a captivatingly sweet voice, "If you want to know, try to please your older sister tonight, darling~."

As soon as she finished speaking, before Mu Zhian could even process what had just happened, Xiang Feng had already left the room, leaving only a soft voice echoing in her ears: "I'll be waiting for you in your senior sister's room."

Mu Zhian was startled out of his daze. The soft, charming voice from before still seemed to echo in his ears, sending a chill down his spine.

He had already been in a state of limbo for the past three days, and now, being teased by this beautiful woman who was described as a fairy and read as a demon, he naturally couldn't help but feel a little overwhelmed.

The Azure Emperor sister is getting hotter and hotter... She has my XP preferences completely under her control... It wasn't until Yao Meng's figure disappeared from sight that Mu Zhian came back to his senses. After gathering his thoughts, he walked towards the hot spring with a sigh.

After passing through a secluded courtyard, nearly a quarter of an hour later, Mu Zhian saw the sect leader sister soaking in the hot spring.

Water washed over her shoulders, and mist swirled around her, vaguely revealing the graceful curves of a woman. The sound of the splashing water seemed to pluck at Mu Zhi'an's heartstrings, causing him to walk involuntarily.

"Why are you here...?"

Shang Yanfei seemed quite surprised by Mu Zhian's arrival. She slipped away from the hot spring, and a thick fog silently filled the surroundings. She seemed not to have expected Mu Zhian to return.

Clearly, she was genuinely nervous, so much so that she didn't even wipe the water droplets off her body before simply putting on a loose white undergarment. Her long, curly hair was wet and cascading down her back, with water droplets dripping from the ends of her hair onto the ground.

Compared to its former peerless elegance and unassailable majesty, it now possesses an unusual charm.

Charming and alluring.

"Didn't the sect leader explain the situation to Yao Meng...?" Mu Zhian hesitated for a moment.

"I didn't expect her to let you stay..." Shang Yanfei's tone held a hint of amusement that she hadn't shown before.

The Azure Emperor is truly magnanimous, actually allowing her Daoist partner to be with other women...

"Perhaps Yao Meng also knew that the sect leader's situation was rather delicate, so she asked me to stay so that we could look after him," Mu Zhian guessed.

He was also a little confused. He thought Yao Meng would forcibly take him away this time, but he didn't expect her to leave him behind.

At first, he thought that the sect leader had said something to Yao Meng that made her change her mind, but now it seems that Shang Yanfei was also surprised that he was still in Qingmei Garden at this time.

"I need to go into seclusion for a while to meditate and cultivate, to suppress my karmic fire. You should go back now."

After Shang Yanfei finished speaking, she glanced at Mu Zhi'an through the hazy mist. Then, the array beneath Mu Zhi'an's feet suddenly descended, and in a daze, he could no longer see the peerless empress, but was in a familiar room.

This is Tianhe Garden.

The sect leader's methods are indeed mysterious and unpredictable. But why did her face turn so red just now? It's not like her usual self. Could this also be the influence of the 'Primordial Witch's' spiritual consciousness?

Or was she embarrassed because I saw her soaking in the hot spring...?

With someone like her, it shouldn't be that bad... Mu Zhian looked up at the hazy night outside the window and couldn't help but sigh inwardly.

He thought he would finally have a chance to repay his sect leader sister, but he didn't expect that she could suppress the karmic fire on her own.

These past few days have been exhausting, and Mu Zhian couldn't help but miss his little sister Lingxuan and little sister Qian'er. The big shark was great, but too difficult to control, but the little fish was pure, cute, and very obedient.

If they were here, he could release all the frustration he'd been feeling these past few days.

As Mu Zhian pondered this, he sat cross-legged on the bed, meditating and cultivating, circulating his inner energy through his cauldron.

This is the only way I can suppress my inner desires right now.

Time passed silently, and Mu Zhian vaguely heard a woman's soft breathing beside him, as if she was deliberately suppressing her voice.

That suppressed voice was soft and sweet, with a kind of alluring quality that made people itch with desire.

It didn't seem like a hallucination... Mu Zhian suddenly opened his eyes and saw Shang Yanfei, who had just finished bathing. Her beautiful face was flushed with two intoxicating blushes, and in the moonlight, her beautiful eyes shone with a silver hue unlike anything he had ever seen before.

Her raven-black gown accentuated her sexy, mature curves. Her hips rested on the table by the window, and a pair of delicate, white feet peeked out from beneath her skirt. Her small, exquisite feet were particularly dazzling and captivating against the backdrop of the black skirt, like rare and beautiful jade.

"Sect Master..." Mu Zhian called out almost subconsciously.

Then, his gaze lingered on Shang Yanfei's flushed cheeks.

The sect leader's condition seems a bit off...

Mu Zhi calmed himself down, got off the bed, and slowly approached Shang Yanfei.

……

Mu Zhian lit the candles in the room, and the warm light dispelled the darkness, revealing Shang Yanfei's beauty to him without reservation.

Beneath the raven-black gown, her sensual curves were accentuated, revealing a captivating charm unlike anything she had ever possessed before.

A silver gleam now flowed in those majestic, pale golden eyes.
