It turns out, they were the main characters.

But crying didn't seem to help. In the past, the boy would always appear in time to comfort her gently when she cried, but now no one could comfort her.

Later, members of the Ye tribe found her and wanted to take her back to their tribe. She asked the tribespeople about Mu Zhi'an's whereabouts, but the tribespeople all seemed to have amnesia and had completely forgotten about Mu Zhi'an.

The clansmen even suspected that the young lady was hallucinating.

On the very night she returned to her tribe, distraught, a woman appeared before her.

The woman said, "Go and be reincarnated."

You will definitely meet him in the future.

As a teenager, Ye Lingxuan knew nothing and only thought that the woman was amazing. She seemed to know everything and be omnipotent, as if there was nothing in the world that could stump her.

Therefore, the girl was naturally attracted to that woman.

She just could never remember the woman's face.

The woman in her memory was blurry, but she was very, very beautiful.

After being reincarnated nine times, she became the daughter of the Lord of the Forbidden Zone. One day, her father took her to visit the sect leader of the Liangyi Sect.

That was the first time that the princess of the forbidden zone, whose talent surpassed all other geniuses, had felt a good impression of a woman she had just met, and even inexplicably and blindly admired and liked her.

There was no reason, I just had a crush on that woman, and I thought she was very beautiful.

Ye Lingxuan had never really thought about why this was.

Until this moment, she finally understood.

Because she vaguely remembered that it was this woman who told her how to find her brother Mu.

Ye Lingxuan suddenly felt a hand grip hers from behind.

She suddenly came to her senses and opened her eyes abruptly.

The young man in white robes had appeared behind her at some point. Climbing to the eighteenth floor was a great test for his furnace, and he lost a lot of spiritual energy, so his face was a little pale, but he still had his usual gentle smile on his face.

"Brother Mu, what are you doing here?!" Ye Lingxuan suddenly woke up, her eyes widening in disbelief.

"Follow me," Mu Zhian said softly.

In that deathly silence, countless eyes were fixed on this scene.

Mu Zhian took Ye Lingxuan's hand and resolutely walked up the nineteenth step.

The twentieth floor!

Standing on the twentieth floor, Ye Lingxuan's face was extremely pale, and her forehead was covered in sweat. She could feel that she had truly reached her limit.

At that moment, Mu Zhian let go of her hand.

Then she heard a gentle voice, as always, say in her ear: "Go."

"This is the last step I can take with you."

After inheriting the throne of the Forbidden Zone Queen, there was nothing he could do to help Ye Lingxuan anymore.

In a daze, Ye Lingxuan seemed to have returned to that lush green forest, and vaguely recalled the events that happened in her first life.

The setting sun painted the clouds red.

As the sun set, Ye Lingxuan slowly closed her eyes, feeling the power of rules intertwined within her body.

Her dress seemed to blaze in the sunset, making her figure appear exceptionally slender and divine.

You can only accompany me this far.

But from now on, we can walk the rest of the road together.

Ye Lingxuan slowly opened her eyes. In the sunset, her beautiful purple eyes seemed to flow with a majestic golden light.

Behind her, intricate Daoist patterns intertwined and coiled, creating a strange phenomenon resembling the shifting of stars.

The first queen of the forbidden zone who has perfectly mastered the power of the rules has been born.

Chapter 539

Ye Lingxuan could already pop the champagne before any other candidates even participated in the assessment on this forbidden ancient road.

Among the nine forbidden lands, she was the first person in history to successfully ascend the twenty-step white jade staircase. With her becoming the Queen of the Forbidden Zone, even the radical faction within the Forbidden Zone would have nothing to say.

It's no exaggeration to say that Ye Lingxuan's coronation ceremony could start right now without any problems.

"Brother Mu, aren't you coming down with me?"

As Ye Lingxuan turned to walk down the forbidden ancient path, she noticed Mu Zhian standing on the twentieth step, as if waiting for something.

"You can go now. I've found myself gaining some insights, so I need to go into seclusion for a while longer," Mu Zhian said softly, patting the girl's head.

Ye Lingxuan looked somewhat bewildered, silently glanced at the boy again, and finally nodded gently before stepping down the forbidden ancient path.

"How long do you plan to hide? The Heavenly Dao? Or should I say... the Heavenly Dao's will within the Forbidden Ancient Path?"

After Ye Lingxuan left, Mu Zhian smiled and looked at the endless forbidden ancient road. A hazy fairy aura seemed to permeate the ancient road, gradually blocking everyone's view. Even Mu Zhian's figure became somewhat illusory.

The noisy chatter of the forbidden tribesmen beneath the forbidden ancient road seemed to have fallen silent at this moment.

Then, a sound of footsteps came from this silent, forbidden ancient road.

The woman who came into view wore armor made of silver-white immortal gold, with long hair flowing down her back and a cold face. She looked like a female warrior. Although she had an extremely beautiful face, people who saw her for the first time did not feel amazed by her beauty, but rather felt a sense of awe.

The will of Heaven!

No, to be precise, it is the will of Heaven within the forbidden land.

"Was my successful ascent onto the forbidden ancient path arranged by you in secret?" Mu Zhian simply sat cross-legged on the steps to rest.

Every step on this forbidden ancient path is a test of one's spiritual energy, because the oppressive aura here is too strong.

Moreover, this is because the Heavenly Dao did not reject Mu Zhi'an, so it was relatively easier for him to walk on the forbidden ancient path.

It's easy to imagine how difficult it must have been for Ye Lingxuan, who had just been rejected by the Heavenly Dao, to cross the eighteenth step.

"You were able to embark on the forbidden ancient path because Number One acknowledged you; it has nothing to do with me," said the will of Heaven.

Mu Zhian smiled and said, "She's number one, so you're number two?"

You know about what happened between her and me, right?

Number Two nodded calmly.

The wills of Heaven can sense what each other has experienced, as No. 1 has already mentioned before.

Mu Zhi'an continued to ask, "Could it be that I have violated some rule of heaven and earth again, which is why you have descended?"

Number Two stared coldly at Mu Zhi'an, his emotionless voice ringing out: "There is no rule in the laws of heaven and earth that forbids helping other candidates pass through the forbidden ancient road."

Mu Zhian shrugged: "Isn't that enough? Since you didn't violate the rules of heaven and earth, why did you descend in the first place?"

Number Two's tall and graceful figure appeared and disappeared in the hazy fairy mist. She calmly said, "Helping others pass through the forbidden ancient road is not within the rules, but you acted by taking advantage of the loopholes in the rules of heaven and earth, which violated the rules of heaven and earth."

Mu Zhian let out a soft breath, looked up at her with a smile, and said, "So? You're going to punish me?"

"That's how it should be—"

Before she could finish speaking, Mu Zhian suddenly smiled and said, "Since you are connected to Number One in terms of perception, don't you want to experience it for yourself?"

"What exactly is a naturally formed furnace that transcends the rules of heaven and earth like? Rather than trying to understand it through Number One, why not experience it for yourself?"

He paused, then raised his eyes to gaze at the beautiful woman who controlled the forbidden ancient path:

Would you like to give it a try?

Those dark eyes seemed to shimmer with a pinkish luster, exuding an indescribable allure.

Behind him, nine phantom tails seemed to unfold silently like a peacock spreading its tail feathers, beautiful to the point of being bewitching and extremely dazzling.

Number Two's emotionless eyes flickered slightly as he subconsciously gazed into Mu Zhi'an's eyes, seemingly drawn to his gaze, staring intently at him.

The aura of the innate furnace emanated from the forbidden ancient road at this moment, much like the aroma of a certain food.

Mu Zhian continued, "I know I have violated the rules of heaven and earth, which is why I am now thinking about whether I can make amends to you..."

“In Kyushu, there’s a term called bribery, and what you’re doing now is exactly that,” Miss Tiandao said coldly.

Mu Zhian looked apologetic: "I'm sorry, it seems I overlooked your unwavering will... But don't you want to know why Number One made that deal with me, and even called me master in private?"

"Know yourself and know your enemy, and you will win every battle." Isn't this also an attempt to defeat the enemy?

He extended his hand to Miss Tiandao and said softly, "What do you think of this suggestion?"

At the same time, he tried calling out to his wife, the one who had been slacking off for who knows how long, twice in his heart.

He wasn't sure if Number Two would 'cooperate' with him like Number One had. After all, even Number One only won over the Heavenly Dao Miss after Mu Zhi'an gave her the spiritual energy of a natural furnace.

But now this 'Number Two' is clearly wary of him.

In dire circumstances, he could only resort to the power of the Heavenly Court's rules to contend with the woman before him.

As expected, Number Two's eyes remained unwavering as he coldly said, "Number One was lured by your spiritual energy, and now you want me to submit to it as well?"

Behind her, a halo as radiant as the sun seemed to quietly light up, and the woman's hair fluttered as she slowly raised her fingertips.

Mu Zhian could sense that all the rules of the world were being invoked at this moment.

She was about to get serious... Mu Zhian felt a chill run down his spine and quietly used his spiritual sense to manipulate the power of the Heavenly Court's rules.

"Exploiting loopholes in the rules of heaven and earth to disrupt the order of heaven and earth—"

Number Two slowly raised his fingertips.

boom……

A deafening roar, seemingly capable of tearing the heavens apart, echoed along the forbidden ancient road. In an instant, the rules of the entire forbidden zone seemed to transform into the power of the Heavenly Dao.

Mu Zhian stared intently at Number Two, who remained expressionless. Once the rules of the forbidden zone were lowered, he would use the power of the Heavenly Court to shield all the rules.

boom……

As another thunderclap resounded, the aura of destruction brewing between heaven and earth quietly gathered on the forbidden ancient road.

She spoke coldly: "Impart divine punishment to those who defy the will of Heaven—"

As she finished speaking, the spiritual energy in the space transformed into turbulent currents under her control. The spiritual energy was constantly being compressed, emanating an aura of destruction.

It's hard to imagine what would happen if such compressed spiritual energy were to explode.
