It turns out, they were the main characters.

"Where did that ancient ship in the ancestral land of the Blue Clan come from?"

At this moment, as Mu Zhian stepped into the ancestral land of the Blue Clan, he finally couldn't help but speak.

Upon hearing this, Yao Meng subtly turned her gaze to the woman who had raised Mu Zhi'an.

Ever since she first met Mu Wange, she had felt a strange sense of familiarity, but she couldn't quite put her finger on where that feeling came from.

Mu Wange spoke gently, “That was a painted boat that traveled upstream along the river of history from the heavens, a miracle left behind by the primordial god.”

Mu Zhian had heard the name "Shang Cang" more than once.

It is the origin of the 'Sabbath', and also a desolate place where life is extremely difficult to survive.

It could even be described as a death trap.

But why did that 'miracle' left behind by the primordial god end up in Lan Shihuai's hands?

Mu Zhian's doubts had not diminished, and he was about to ask more questions when he noticed that Mu Wange had stopped just as she was about to step into the depths of the ancestral land.

"What's wrong?" Mu Zhian asked, puzzled.

Before Mu Wange could speak, Yao Meng seemed to have sensed something as well, and reached out to pick up a 'bamboo slip' that seemed to float out of thin air.

After glancing at it, she handed the bamboo slip to Mu Zhian and said quietly, "She wants to see you alone."

Chapter 574 Entering and Exiting the Great Path, Lan Shihuai Had a Bold Idea (7,000 words)

She wants to see me alone...?

If it weren't for the fact that the Blue Clan ancestor was a respectable person, Mu Zhi'an would probably have thought that the other party wanted to try out what it was like to be a natural furnace for the Feather Transformation Realm after he had attained enlightenment.

Although he has not yet comprehended the Dao, Mu Zhian is indeed at the Enlightenment Realm.

Mu Zhian hesitated for a moment, then said, "Then I'll go in and see her first?"

Mu Wange nodded gently, then reminded her, "Remember to prioritize protecting your own body."

That ancient ship was filled with the illusory consciousness of powerful beings, without even a physical body. I still need to protect my own body...?

Looking at Mu Wange's gentle and charming face, and the tenderness in her eyes, Mu Zhian finally nodded gently.

Then, for no apparent reason, he recalled his conversation with Mu Wange the night before, and his gaze lingered on the woman's face for a moment.

Mu Wange was also looking at the boy, clearly thinking the same thing as Mu Zhian.

Her heart skipped a beat, and she said softly, "You, you go ahead. Qingdi and I are here, so there's no need to worry about anyone coming in and disturbing us."

Yao Meng's beautiful eyes flickered slightly as her gaze swept over the two of them without leaving a trace, her eyes holding a rather meaningful look.

As Mu Zhian turned and headed into the abyss of the ancestral land, her spiritual sense quietly locked onto the beautiful and charming mature woman beside her.

Mu Wange gazed tenderly in the direction where Mu Zhi'an had disappeared: "Azure Emperor, is there something you need?"

“I was quite surprised when he said he wanted to take me to meet his parents at the Liangyi Sect.”

Yao Meng spoke softly, "Back then, I was always wondering why such an outstanding child would grow up in Tianxuan City in such an ordinary way for the past ten years, without any news about him being a prodigy."

Mu Wange said calmly, "Didn't I hear that the child indulged in self-destruction for a while when he was in Tianxuan City? He only woke up later and started to cultivate diligently."

"Then, after he began to cultivate diligently, his luck gradually increased. Although he did not acquire any rare treasures, he always managed to meet all sorts of powerful figures by chance... In fact, he was even able to obtain the Taoist techniques of those powerful figures in some way, right?"

Yao Mengqing smiled coldly: "He must have copied Gong Lianyue's sword immortal body, Ye Lingxuan's innate spiritual body, and even my innate Dao embryo, for his own use in some way, right?"

Having been with Mu Zhian for so long, even without seeing his personal profile, Yao Meng could still sense the abnormality in his physique.

Moreover, when he went to the restricted area to have his physique tested, the result was that he was a Chaotic Body.

This Chaotic Body includes many powerful physiques, including Yao Meng's.

Mu Wange remained silent and did not utter a sound.

The more she said, the more mistakes she made. The Azure Emperor was too clever, and she worried that if they continued talking, he would discover more of her secrets.

Even so, Yao Meng continued, "So I was wondering before if he could convert the physiques of those close to him into his own... but later, because of one person, I temporarily put aside this doubt."

She gazed at Mu Wange's exquisite profile and said softly, "Among the people he knows, there are four whose physiques he has not been able to replicate."

"Linglong and the Queen need no further explanation; their Dao has long transcended all things in the world. Besides them, there are two other people whose physiques I still haven't quite figured out."

"Wei Mengrou".

When Yao Meng uttered the name, Mu Wange's eyes changed slightly.

“And Consort Shang Yan,” she said again.

Mu Wange's eyes flickered slightly. She finally couldn't help but turn her head to look at Yao Meng, trying to see something in the Azure Emperor's eyes.

However, this woman was too soft-hearted, and her pair of watery peach blossom eyes were also too gentle and innocent. When she stared straight at Yao Meng, it was she who was the first to look away, feeling a little embarrassed.

Yao Meng scrutinized Mu Wange's veiled face. Her face was round and somewhat resembled Linglong's, except that the latter was more innocent and adorable, always gazing at you with a pair of pure, clear red eyes.

Mu Wange, on the other hand, is a reserved and mature beauty, with peach blossom eyes that look gentle and tender to everyone she meets.

Seeing Yao Meng staring at her without speaking, Mu Wange sighed softly, "Why does Mu'er always like to be close to such a smart woman..."

A woman only needs to be pretty; being too smart isn't a good thing... at least for Mu Zhian, getting close to too many smart women isn't a good thing.

He thought he was very clever, raising fish, but he didn't even know who was raising whom.

Who knows, one day when Mu Zhian is feeding the fish, he might get swallowed whole by a great white shark in the fishpond.

"You're not his parents, are you?" Yao Meng said with a smile.

Before meeting Mu Wange, she couldn't be sure, but after meeting Mu Wange, it wasn't difficult to find out whether he and Mu Wange were related by blood.

Mu Wange's expression changed slightly: "Whether it is or not is not important. In any case, I only regard him as a child."

"You treat him like a child... then does that apply to Consort Shang Yan?"

Yao Meng scoffed, "Does she also consider my husband a child? If so, I'm relieved."

Mu Wange's eyes flickered slightly, and she unconsciously looked away: "Why...why did you suddenly bring up Sect Master Shang?"

Yao Meng looked at Mu Wange with a half-smile, her eyes seeming to say, "Don't you know better than me why we should mention Sect Master Shang?"

The Azure Emperor was indeed beginning to doubt her identity... Mu Wange felt a chill run down her spine.

"You should know someone, or at least someone related to Shang Yanfei, right?" Yao Meng asked expressionlessly.

Yao Meng had been wondering why Shang Yanfei would be so kind to Mu Zhian, a disciple who had just joined the sect, for no apparent reason. At first, she didn't suspect anything, but as she stayed in Mu Zhian's body for a longer time, she discovered that behind every event Mu Zhian experienced, there seemed to be the shadow of the sect leader.

"I suppose my meeting with Mu Lang wasn't just a coincidence?"

Mu Wange raised an eyebrow and said softly, "Do you think she deliberately arranged for you to meet Mu'er?"

"Isn't that right?" Yao Meng's gaze remained gentle, but her aura suddenly locked onto Mu Wange.

"Shang Yanfei knew long ago that Mu Lang could use a certain ability to acquire a part of other people's physique for his own use, so she secretly arranged for him to unintentionally approach the Pilgrimage Hall and rescue my spiritual consciousness," Yao Meng said softly.

Mu Wange: "If you want to get the answers you want from me, then I can only apologize... The memories of the main body are not shared with the clone, so I don't know much about what she did in the past."

She continued, "And then? What did the Azure Emperor plan to do after he found out about this? Did he question her about whether she was planning to do something earth-shattering, or... whether he wanted to leave Mu'er?"

Yao Meng glanced at Mu Wange and said calmly, "I don't know what Shang Yanfei's purpose is, and I have no interest in knowing what kind of love-hate entanglement she had with Mu Zhian in the past."

"But in this life, he will only ever be mine."

Upon hearing this, Mu Wange couldn't help but reveal a gentle smile on her face.

The Azure Emperor's reaction upon learning the truth was exactly as Consort Shang had predicted.

After all, Shang Yanfei was the villain in all the plans, and Mu Zhian was completely unaware of it.

Although Mu Zhian saved Yao Meng partly because he was attracted to her looks, this was not a negative factor for Yao Meng.

There are quite a few people in this world who fall in love with the Azure Emperor based solely on his appearance, and Mu Zhi'an is just one of them.

This child was just more blatant and more genuine.

"It's good that you understand. No matter what, Mu'er's feelings for you are genuine," Mu Wange said softly.

“I know,” Yao Meng smiled.

Even so, the feeling of being tricked is still quite unpleasant...

Yao Meng narrowed her eyes, her clear, melodious voice carrying a hint of amusement: "By the way, when you and I were talking, could she also sense it?"

Mu Wange hesitated slightly, but under Yao Meng's gaze, she nodded gently.

“She can hear…and even see everything that her clone sees,” Mu Wange said. “Is there anything you want to say to her?”

Yao Meng gave a soft "hmm" and said to herself, "When I was in the Liangyi Sect, my husband said he would take us to meet his parents. At that time, I was a little nervous... After all, if his parents were minor cultivators with a lifespan of less than a few thousand years, it would be a bit strange to call them parents."

"I just didn't expect that he didn't actually have parents..."

At this moment, she paused suddenly, and then continued casually, "But it's clear that your husband still respects you very much, isn't it?"

If it were before last night, Mu Wange could have nodded with absolute certainty when faced with Yao Meng's question.

However... recalling the various scenes from her conversation with him last night, a complex look appeared in the woman's eyes.

"Hmm...I guess so." After a moment, Mu Wange revealed a faint smile.

"In that case, you should be considered one of his most trusted elders."

Under Mu Wange's gentle gaze, Yao Meng smiled and bowed, saying softly, "Mother, your daughter-in-law greets you."

Mu Wange's smile froze.

Deep within Liangyi Peak, Shang Yanfei stared at the bronze mirror in her hand with a slightly surprised look. After a moment of silence, she turned the mirror over and gently patted it onto the table.

……

"It seems like it's been a while since I've seen Senior Sister and Sister Feiying. The last time I showed them any affection was probably the last time..."

At this very moment, Mu Zhian is walking on this ancient ship left behind by the primordial mother goddess.

Upon seeing the ancient ship of the Blue Clan, he inexplicably thought of the aloof woman in the white dress and the charming and graceful lady in the cheongsam.

I wonder if they are still cultivating within the Liangyi Sect...

The ancient ship was filled with all sorts of strange and unusual items, such as bamboo slips, tattered scriptures, and others, that had drifted in from the void.

Mu Zhian even saw text that did not belong to this era of Kyushu. It was very complicated and he could not understand what it said at all.

“You’re a bit early, Mu Zhian.”
