It turns out, they were the main characters.

The princess's gaze suddenly sharpened, landing on the figure in the dark sky.

It was a figure like a god, dressed in a brilliant golden armor, her whole body seemingly bathed in a sacred and enchanting halo, her long hair dazzling and captivating in the light, like a Valkyrie, with a dignified aura.

"The will of Heaven..."

Upon seeing the goddess descending from the heavens, the princess's expression changed slightly: "How could she be here...?"

The will of Heaven is the agent of Heaven in the Nine Provinces. It will only descend when a cultivator violates the rules of Heaven and Earth, and impose heavenly punishment on the violator.

But apart from her and Mu Zhian, there was no one else in this bamboo forest.

Almost at the moment the will of Heaven descended, many people in various parts of the Nine Provinces also noticed the strange phenomenon here, and many cultivators had a more solemn and apprehensive look in their eyes.

Throughout history, whenever the will of Heaven descends, it means that there will be an unlucky soul who will be punished by Heaven.

What are you doing here?

Upon seeing the woman descending from the sky with her expressionless and aloof beauty, the princess held up her umbrella and stood in front of Mu Zhian, her gaze gently surveying this goddess with her cold and elegant demeanor.

But deep down, they were already on guard.

Clearly, this will of Heaven is aimed at Mu Zhi'an!

Miss Tiandao's gaze passed over the princess and landed on Mu Zhian behind her: "He violated the rules of heaven and earth, and he should be punished by heaven."

The princess frowned slightly: "He did not undergo tribulation, so how can you say that he violated the rules of heaven?"

Miss Tiandao's eyes were calm and indifferent: "The will of Heaven executes the laws without needing to explain to others. You should step down, otherwise you will also violate the rules of Heaven and Earth."

The princess sneered, "I'd like to see just how much power the will of Heaven can unleash."

She has made up her mind not to give in no matter what.

"Let me talk to her alone. You go to the sect and wait for me."

However, at this moment, Mu Zhian, who had been silent all along, suddenly spoke up.

The princess's voice was gentle, but it had a coldness that was different from her usual tone. She said, "You don't need to submit to her. I am in harmony with the Great Dao and am not bound by the Heavenly Dao. I want to see how the will of the Heavenly Dao will punish me."

Mu Zhian reached out and placed his hand on the back of hers, gently holding it, and whispered, "Trust me, there won't be any problems."

At this moment, Miss Tiandao suddenly spoke up: "He did not violate many rules, and it will not harm his life or origin."

The princess frowned slightly, giving the goddess in her golden armor a deep look before glancing at Mu Zhi'an, who nodded in approval.

In the end, the princess nodded silently.

"I understand... I'll go to the Liangyi Sect and wait for you."

Although it is unknown which rule of heaven and earth Mu Zhian violated, judging from the attitude of the will of heaven, it should not be a very serious matter.

However, in principle, unless the violation of the rules of heaven and earth is particularly serious, the will of heaven will not personally descend to the mortal realm to carry out heavenly punishment.

Why did he have to receive such treatment...?

Is it because he is too talented?

Even as she tore open the spatial rift and left, the princess still harbored a lingering sense of doubt.

……

"Um... Master, I'm really sorry for being so disrespectful to you just now."

Deep within the bamboo forest was a secluded courtyard. In front of the courtyard, Miss Tiandao, clad in battle armor, lay beside the young man like a docile cat.

Mu Zhian gently stroked Miss Tiandao's smooth hair, looking at her who was as dignified as a Valkyrie in public but as obedient as a cat in private, and said in a gentle voice: "You did very well. When you are outside, you should indeed maintain the dignity that the will of Heaven should have. Otherwise, it will be troublesome if everyone dares to violate the rules of Heaven and Earth in the future."

"Yes, my master." Her icy voice carried a hint of tenderness.

"You suddenly appeared, there must be something you want to say, right?" Mu Zhian suddenly asked.

"The wills of the other Heavenly Paths are now aware of your existence and regard you as a heretic... Therefore, if you show even the slightest sign of violating the rules of Heaven and Earth, you will be subject to divine punishment," the Heavenly Path lady said vaguely.

"So, from now on, everything I do will be observed by other Heavenly Dao wills with a magnifying glass?" Mu Zhian was somewhat taken aback.

He then quickly smiled.

"Did you come to tell me this because you wanted to help me?" Mu Zhian asked softly.

“Yes… but there’s only so much I can do. Even if I don’t impose divine punishment in the future, other Heavenly Wills will do the same,” Miss Heavenly Will said.

As a branch of the Heavenly Dao, she should not, in principle, favor any particular cultivator in the Nine Provinces.

But alas... once you've experienced the spiritual energy of a natural furnace, you'll never forget it.

Such wonderful spiritual energy... even the mechanical Miss Tiandao didn't want it to be completely erased by her other 'companions' so that she could never taste it again.

"So as long as the other Heavenly Dao wills give up the idea of ​​inflicting divine punishment on me... or they transfer all their authority to you, will I no longer be subject to divine punishment in the future?" Mu Zhian suddenly asked.

"That's how it is in theory... but it's very difficult in practice. I can indeed devour the authority of other Heavenly Dao wills, but they have to be willing," Miss Heavenly Dao said.

"But this is a very difficult thing. No Heavenly Will would be willing to hand over its authority to someone else."

This is quite obvious. Although the will of Heaven has no human emotions, the absence of emotions does not mean that it is completely devoid of desires.

At the very least, they would not be willing to hand over the authority they possess to other 'companions'.

As "Number One," Miss Tiandao was well aware of this.

"Yes...it is indeed a very difficult thing."

Mu Zhian gently stroked Miss Tiandao's smooth hair. Looking at the perfect beauty in front of him with her obedient posture, he couldn't help but reach out and gently lift her snow-white and proud chin.

"But if you are willing to take control of all authority and become the sole agent of the Heavenly Dao in the Nine Provinces..."

Mu Zhian looked down into her eyes and said softly in a gentle, persuasive tone, "I'll help you."

……

Chapter 558 The Great Road Shepherd Knows An Great Road 5.5K

Giving Miss Tiandao control of all the power may sound difficult, but in reality... it's not as hard as you might imagine.

After all, Miss No. 1 of the Heavenly Dao was able to share her feelings with other Heavenly Dao wills, which is why No. 2, who appeared on the Forbidden Ancient Road, was so wary of Mu Zhian.

Number Two and other Heavenly Dao wills all know the wonders of the innate furnace, so they dare not try it lightly, for fear that they will be like Number One, uncontrollably sinking into it.

Are you interested in taking control of other powers of the Heavenly Dao within the Nine Provinces?

Looking at Miss Tiandao nestled in his arms, her delicate body completely encased in armor crafted from immortal gold, Mu Zhian asked once more.

Upon hearing Mu Zhian's words, she immediately looked up.

"Does Master intend to transfer the authority of the other Heavenly Dao wills to me alone?"

Her voice remained cold and pleasant, but for the first time, her eyes revealed a look of doubt and confusion.

Although the authority of Heaven can be transferred if other Heavenly Wills are willing, how could other Heavenly Wills possibly transfer their authority to others?

Authority is the symbol of the will of Heaven in the human world. Once authority is handed over, it means that they have chosen to submit to another will of Heaven... and may even become one with it.

"They're unlikely to agree, so let's not even consider it," Miss Tiandao quickly said again.

Mu Zhian looked at her and smiled slightly, "Just tell me if you want to or not. As for whether I can transfer all the power to you, that's something I need to consider."

“They all see you as a heretic now. If we could gain their power, it would indeed benefit both of us in a way…”

Although Miss Tiandao was still somewhat puzzled about what Mu Zhian was planning to do, she immediately gave her answer after hearing his question.

Because of other Heavenly Dao wills, she has been unable to come to see Mu Zhi'an recently.

After all, the Heavenly Dao is the embodiment of all living beings, and the will of the Heavenly Dao is a wisp of spiritual energy that has been separated from the Heavenly Dao. If one frequently gets close to Mu Zhi'an, it would be tantamount to desecrating all living beings.

Although it won't have any impact... if all living beings in the world knew about this, the impact would be huge.

Other Heavenly Wills would not allow such a thing to happen. They now regard Mu Zhi'an as a heretic. If she continues to see Mu Zhi'an frequently at this time, the other Heavenly Wills may spare no effort to suppress and kill him.

If she could harness the authority of other Heavenly Dao wills for her own use... even if she descended to Kyushu in human form to see Mu Zhian in the future, she would no longer be stopped.

"What does Master need me to do?" Miss Tiandao raised her indifferent and emotionless eyes to look at Mu Zhian, but a faint blush still remained on her cold and beautiful face.

"Actually, you don't need to do anything. It's enough if we do something together."

Mu Zhian smiled and said softly.

Seeing the doubt and confusion in Miss Tiandao's cold eyes, Mu Zhian casually asked, "Are you able to completely share your feelings with other Heavenly Dao wills?"

Miss Tiandao's beautiful, glassy eyes flickered, her expression slightly hesitant, before she suddenly realized what she meant.

She already had a vague idea of ​​what Mu Zhi'an was planning to do.

Seeing that Miss Tiandao remained silent, Mu Zhian sighed softly, "If you're unwilling, then forget it. I don't like forcing others."

"Why are you so eager to help me control the power of Kyushu? Being so good to me doesn't really benefit you, does it?"

Miss Tiandao's flawless, gem-like eyes sparkled as she stared intently at Mu Zhian, unable to resist asking a question.

She is a wisp of will that split off from the Heavenly Dao, and she had previously inflicted 'Heavenly Punishment' on Mu Zhian.

Although she later appeared to submit to Mu Zhi'an on the surface, even calling him 'master', Mu Zhi'an wasn't stupid. He couldn't possibly not know that she actually had no human emotions and that she called him that only to satisfy his fantasies and for his innate spiritual energy.

Moreover, perhaps her approach to Mu Zhian was a mission from Heaven, intended to make him lower his guard?

Although she didn't understand human emotions, she was well aware of her beauty among female cultivators—a beauty that could indeed captivate men…

but--

Before that, Mu Zhian had already seen too many outstanding women. The ethereal beauty of that Azure Emperor alone was enough to make him immune to the so-called stunning beauty of women.

Moreover, he is a natural furnace, and a natural furnace at the Feather Transformation Realm.

If he were willing, just by making that request, countless favored daughters of ancient noble families throughout the Nine Provinces would offer themselves to him.

Not to mention the ancient aristocratic families, even the four supreme beings in the forbidden lands are extremely envious of him and wish they could take him back to the forbidden lands and pamper him.

And those supreme beings, each one of them is exceptionally beautiful... The Lord of Life even possesses two forms.

In other words, Mu Zhian wasn't infatuated with her looks; he simply wanted to help her.

That's why Miss Tiandao was so confused.

What exactly does Young Master Mu intend to do with her? Even if he helps her and lets her control all the power of the Heavenly Dao, she can never become Mu Zhi'an's possession, nor can she use this power to please him.
