It turns out, they were the main characters.

This is a record of the previous dynasty of the Daqian era.

And in this dynasty, the last line is marked with a sentence: On the day the dynasty fell, the radiance of the Heavenly Dao enveloped the nine provinces, purifying the body of misfortune, until the body of misfortune perished, and the radiance dimmed accordingly.

What does this sentence mean...?

Once the Body of Misfortune is born, the Heavenly Dao will remain in the Nine Provinces until it sends down Heavenly Punishment to kill the Body of Misfortune before it leaves.

why?

How could a mere unlucky body garner such attention from the Heavenly Dao?

Mu Zhian frowned as he looked at the sentence, lost in thought.

However, Mu Zhian was just thinking about something.

...Since the Heavenly Way only descends when a dynasty falls, does that mean that as long as the dynasty doesn't fall, the Heavenly Way cannot manifest?

The current emperor is incompetent and foolish, and the crown prince, who used to indulge in excessive pleasures and manipulate power, is now imprisoned in the Eastern Palace...

We need to find a mature, stable person who knows how to govern the country and put such a person in power in order to stabilize the current situation of the Great Qian Dynasty.

Mu Zhian subconsciously looked at Yongning, a mature woman sitting across the table.

Perhaps because she hadn't rested well in the past few days or was exhausted from the journey, Yongning held the ancient book in her hands and slowly leaned on the table. Her full, soft breasts rested on the table, and a few strands of hair fell on her delicate and pretty face. Her peach blossom eyes seemed to become even more charming.

She seemed to notice Mu Zhian's gaze, and following his gaze, it fell on her. A blush quickly spread across her fair and cool face, and she sat up straight again, her small back ramrod straight.

"Sorry... I was a little too tired just now."

However, this person also lacked the demeanor of a noble young master. Who stares at another person's face like that?

She's clearly very good-looking, with an innocent and harmless vibe... You really can't judge a book by its cover.

Princess Yongning quickly composed herself, coughed lightly, and said seriously, "Young Master Mu, have you found the information you were looking for?"

Mu Zhian nodded slightly: "I guess so."

He still wasn't sure whether the "body of misfortune" referred to the same person or different people, but one thing was certain—no matter what, the Heavenly Dao couldn't be allowed to exploit loopholes in the rules and descend upon the Nine Provinces.

Mu Zhian didn't know why he was being targeted by the Heavenly Dao, but he knew without even thinking...

If Heaven's will truly descend, it will surely try every means to get rid of Mu Zhian first.

Last time, he was lucky and successfully ambushed the will of Heaven, using the innate furnace to distort it.

But if it were the Heavenly Dao... I'm afraid there wouldn't even be a chance to get close to Him.

“Princess Yongning, I think I asked you this before, but I would like to confirm it again.”

Mu Zhian gazed at the dignified and mature eldest princess before him and asked, "Are you interested in the position of the Great Qian Dynasty?"

Yongning was stunned for a moment.

A moment later, a strange light flashed in her eyes, and she parted her red lips slightly, whispering something.

……

Without a doubt, for Mu Zhian, supporting Yongning to take the helm was the safest option.

At least among the people he knew, Yongning was the most suitable candidate.

While Mu Zhi'an was secretly preparing for the throne, Yao Meng, who was engrossed in reading ancient books at her desk after hearing someone's request not long ago, suddenly heard the news that Mu Zhi'an was going to the Great Qian Dynasty.

In recent days, the Great Qian Dynasty has been in turmoil, with various forces secretly sending people to keep an eye on things, and the Yaochi Holy Land is no exception.

Yao Meng was not surprised by Mu Zhian's visit.

If the records in the ancient books are correct, there is a possibility that the Heavenly Dao will descend after each dynasty falls. Whether for Wei Mengrou or for himself, Mu Zhian must make a trip to the Great Qian Dynasty.

"You will send Yao Yue to the Great Qian Dynasty on behalf of Yaochi. If necessary, you will allow Yao Yue to unconditionally support any choice he makes." Holding the ancient book in her hands, Yao Meng said softly to the disciple beside her.

The female disciple suddenly paused, then muttered to herself, "What if Young Master Mu makes some strange request..."

Yao Meng was taken aback, then shook her head with a laugh: "No, just do as I say."

Mu Lang is indeed unreliable... but Yao Yue is one of the top geniuses among the successive generations of Yaochi Saintess, and her cultivation of the Way of Tranquility is even more perfect. If given some more time, it is not impossible for her to even reach her previous achievements.

She initially chose Mu Zhi'an because she had reached the end of the path of tranquility, and thus could do whatever she wanted.

However, Yao Yue's method of calming her mind has only just begun, and it is impossible for her to be swayed by romantic feelings.

Yao Meng was quite at ease with that descendant of Yaochi.

"Go down," she said softly, turning another page of the ancient book, her gaze sweeping over the descriptions within.

After reading for a while, Yao Meng seemed a little tired and took out another book.

She has a way of managing her husband.

This book is just too perfect. If she didn't know that Shang Yanfei and Mu Zhian had never had any relationship, she would even doubt whether the games described in the book were based on her own experiences.

From the indescribable sphere to stockings, and then to how to tease a man and make him fall at her feet.

Even in this latest chapter, it's already candles...

But what exactly is this gameplay...?

Yao Meng's gaze slowly swept over the latest chapter of "The Art of Managing a Husband," and the more she read, the more surprised she became, until finally her delicate eyebrows furrowed slightly at the end.

How did Shang Yanfei come up with so many strange ideas? She hasn't even left the sect for a moment...

Yao Meng casually tossed the book in her hand onto the table, ignoring it dismissively.

No matter what, this kind of behavior is too reckless. She is a Human Emperor in the Feather Transformation Realm, one of only three in the Nine Provinces at the Feather Transformation Realm... How could she be willing to let a little guy bully her like this?

She could even imagine the look of excitement on Mu Zhi'an's face, and how infatuated he would look at her...

Yao Meng gently placed her fingertips against her red lips, a hint of moisture flowing through her usually cool and beautiful eyes.

Hmm...maybe I'll try it next time~

In fact, if Princess Yongning had told Mu Zhian that she had no interest in the throne of the Great Qian Dynasty, Mu Zhian probably wouldn't have believed her.

Mu Zhian was able to glean some insights from his past conversations with Yongning.

Of course, even so, Mu Zhian still needed to confirm it again.

And Yongning did indeed give him the answer he wanted.

She wanted to become the Empress of the Great Qian Dynasty.

"What does Young Master Mu intend to do?"

Princess Yongning stared intently into his eyes: "Does this mean Father should abdicate directly...? You should know that cultivators in the immortal realm are not allowed to interfere with the decisions of mortal emperors, otherwise they will suffer the backlash from the laws of heaven and earth on the fate of the nation."

This is a layer of insurance set up by the three paths of Heaven, Earth, and Man, in order to ensure that the cultivation world in the Nine Provinces will not affect the order of the human dynasties.

Mu Zhian smiled faintly: "I will help Princess Yongning become the Empress of Daqian... As for the method, there are actually many ways, but I need to think about it more carefully."

Looking at Mu Zhian's mysterious smile, Princess Yongning's eyes were filled with doubt and curiosity, and she was about to ask him a question.

At this moment, Mu Zhian suddenly put his finger to his lips and shushed.

"Someone's coming. Don't reveal my presence." Mu Zhian used telepathy this time, and before Yongning could speak, he crawled under the table.

Yongning suddenly felt a slight tremor in his shoulder as he felt the boy's head resting on his knee.

"Young Master Mu, what's wrong?" she asked subconsciously via telepathy, her legs fidgeting uncomfortably as she felt a strange sense of shame.

However, after asking the question, seeing that Mu Zhian did not respond, Yongning stopped talking.

The eldest princess was very clever. She knew that Mu Zhian must have had a reason for doing this, and it seemed that someone he didn't want to face had come to the palace.

But who exactly is it...?

"Your Highness, I hope I haven't disturbed your leisurely reading?"

Just then, a soft and melodious voice suddenly rang out, drawing Yongning's attention to the person who spoke.

She was a woman with wheat-colored skin and dressed in exotic attire.

A seemingly casual smile graced her alluring face, her beautiful eyes gazing outwards, revealing a pair of slender, sexy legs, while she toyed with two glass-like objects in her hands.

"Who are you...?" Yongning asked instinctively.

At this moment, she finally understood why Mu Zhian had been hiding. Even though she was now a cultivator at the eighth level of the Spirit Refinement Realm, she couldn't sense any fluctuation of energy from this woman.

"Lord of the Immortal Forbidden Land, you may call me Isis." The woman revealed a seductive smile and gracefully walked over to Yongning and sat down beside him.

Isis observed Yongning's calm expression with great interest, her eyes filled with admiration: "Not bad, you can remain calm even after knowing my identity. You are much better than most of the noble children in your royal family."

Yongning replied humbly and respectfully, "Thank you for your praise, senior. I am humbled and uneasy... I wonder if you came to see me specifically to give me any instructions?"

Isis narrowed her eyes and stared at Yongning for a long time.

For a moment, Yongning felt as if he were being stared at by a venomous snake, and a rare fluctuation arose in his heart, with a feeling called fear spreading in his heart.

She wanted to kill me...

For some reason, this thought popped into the eldest princess's mind.

Suddenly, she felt a hand on her calf. The warm palm made Yongning's body tremble slightly, and she almost cried out.

Fortunately, she managed to restrain herself, composed herself slightly, lowered her eyes, and maintained her usual calm and dignified demeanor.

Isis collected her thoughts and then chuckled softly, "It's nothing. I just came to the Great Qian Dynasty and heard that the eldest princess of the Great Qian was exceptionally intelligent, so I was curious and came to see for myself."

"By the way, I'd also like to ask, what is Princess Yongning's opinion on the current rumors surrounding the Great Qian Dynasty?"

Yongning calmly said, "This junior believes that the rumors that the Great Qian Dynasty is nearing its end are untrue. Although the Great Qian Dynasty is currently experiencing some internal strife, it is far from reaching the point where its fate is nearing its end."

Isis stared at the dignified and aloof eldest princess for a long time before quietly withdrawing her gaze and standing up.

"I have other matters to attend to today, so I will not disturb the princess's leisurely reading."

After saying that, Isis turned and disappeared in a blur.

After a while, Mu Zhian crawled out from under the table and slowly exhaled.

Fortunately, Isis was just a wisp of spirit; otherwise, his innate spiritual body probably wouldn't have been able to detect her presence immediately.

"It seems that even the forbidden lands can no longer hold back."

Even Mu Zhian never expected that the fate of the Great Qian Dynasty would attract the attention of the forbidden land.
