It turns out, they were the main characters.

Seeing that she couldn't persuade Mu Zhi'an at all, Miss Tiandao finally gave up and chose to silently stay by Mu Zhi'an's side, enjoying their date in the midst of the current chaos.

Just as Mu Zhian was about to set off, he suddenly seemed to sense a rather familiar aura and couldn't help but reveal an amused smile.

Mu Zhi is here too...

That would make it even easier to dig this hole.

……

While Mu Zhian was having a date with Miss Tiandao outside the city, at this very moment, a cold and indifferent gaze was looking down at the boy on the ground from the sky.

The Eternal Lord stood with his hands behind his back, his black robes fluttering in the wind, looking down at the creatures on the ground.

He seemed quite interested as he looked at the boy on the ground who was leading a mysterious woman out of the city.

"From what I understand, Mu Zhian is no fool. I'm not surprised that he came to the Great Qian Dynasty, but to openly date a woman when chaos is about to break out, completely disregarding us, is not his usual style."

"Is it because the Azure Emperor and the Sword Palace Master are secretly protecting him that Mu Zhi'an is planning to lure us into a trap? Perhaps the Demon Realm Empress is also lurking in the shadows?"

The seemingly soft-spoken voice of the Eternal Lord reached the ears of the other Forbidden Lords, who were faintly visible in the sky, without missing a single detail.

The existence of those in the Feather Transformation Realm allows them to rewrite forbidden rules for their own use within a certain range, and even rewrite time itself.

This is an almost heaven-reaching method, and even the forbidden lords who have existed since the birth of Kyushu are now extremely wary of it.

But being wary doesn't mean sitting idly by and watching Mu Zhian's power grow without doing anything.

At least, right now is the best time to make a move in the crowded and complex Great Qian Dynasty.

"Three Ascension Realm experts. The last time I felt this kind of pressure was probably tens of thousands of years ago at the World Ocean, right?" the Eternal Lord said with a light laugh.

The forbidden lands have never been as active as they have been in the past. Even when the forbidden lands absorbed the national fortune during the fall of dynasties, they always did so discreetly.

However, this time, the masters of the eight forbidden lands all made a move, which is already quite puzzling.

"I remember that time on the World Sea, the Lord of Reincarnation was cursed by the witch and was seriously injured. Is that Lord of Reincarnation still in the Reincarnation Forbidden Land?" The Lord of Eternity asked casually, but his gaze fell directly on the graceful figure that was vaguely emerging at the end of the sky.

The master of the forbidden land of reincarnation in the Western Regions is also the second-generation master of reincarnation.

The Lord of Reincarnation smiled and said, "Former Lord of Reincarnation? Could you be referring to that old man who was utterly terrified after the battle at the World Sea and has since lived in seclusion in the mountains?"

"No matter what, he is still your teacher. Treating your teacher like this is not the way of a student." A gentle voice rang out from not far away.

Yu Die, the second owner of the Ancient Land of Immortality.

The Lord of Reincarnation sneered, "Yu Die, stop pretending here. You're just like those bald monks from the Western Regions, feigning compassion. You've been searching for the Celestial Venerable of Immortality for so many years, isn't it because he took away the forbidden artifact from the Ancient Land of Immortality before he left?"

Isis smiled and said softly, "Alright everyone, if you want to argue, you can set a time to have a proper battle later. But right now, don't you, me, and the other forbidden places all have a common goal?"

“I know some of you want to kill him, but he is the man she loves. If possible, she still hopes that he can obediently accompany me back to the Immortal Forbidden Land and serve me well.”

Isis licked her lips and said again in a seductive voice, "But whether you want Mu Zhian dead or you want to take him back to the forbidden land, I hope you don't forget that we all have a common goal now."

"Mu Zhian, you can no longer stay by Qingdi's side."

Isis stated the final conclusion.

Before this, the Forbidden Land was roughly divided into two factions: one side hoped to kill Mu Zhi'an to eliminate future troubles, while the other side hoped that Mu Zhi'an would submit to their charms and provide them with a continuous source of innate spiritual energy for their alchemy furnace.

The various forbidden lands have always been hostile to each other, so there is naturally no possibility of any cooperation.

However, they are currently facing a huge crisis.

If Mu Zhi'an continues to cultivate in Kyushu, it's hard to guarantee what changes will occur to his innate furnace when he eventually achieves Dao.

Three people have already reached the Feather Transformation Realm because of Mu Zhian. If this continues, there may not be any place in the Forbidden Land in the future.

"Let's take Mu Zhi'an away first. As for his life or death, we'll decide that later. I don't think anyone has any objections, right?"

The master of the forbidden land spoke softly, his gentle gaze sweeping over the several forbidden lords in the sky.

Her black and white dress, made of silver-white silk, perfectly hugged her graceful figure. She wore a pair of exquisite ankle boots, and a soft light seemed to emanate from beneath her feet. As she walked through the void, her long, beautiful legs, wrapped in white silk, were inadvertently revealed.

"Lord of Order, it seems you've gone to other civilized places again?"

At this moment, a clear and pleasant voice rang out, and a seemingly harmless little girl blinked her eyes as she looked at the Lord of Order, her eyes revealing an innocent and naive charm.

She is Mu Zhi, the Lord of Life who recently arrived in the Great Qian Dynasty, and also the only 'mole' among the eight forbidden lands.

Long before the eight Forbidden Lords gathered, Mu Zhi had already informed Mu Zhi'an of her ideas about the Forbidden Land via telepathy, but Mu Zhi'an simply told her to observe the situation.

Although she didn't know what her older brother was planning, since he had said so, Mu Zhi simply decided to stay and keep them company.

"The Nine Provinces are vast, and there are countless civilizations. Since we are both afraid of that mysterious powerhouse and dare not show ourselves, why not use a wisp of spiritual consciousness to explore the unique characteristics of other civilizations in other places to pass the time?"

The Lord of Order smiled calmly: "But you can rest assured that I have never descended upon Kyushu in my true form in order to avoid alarming that person."

The Forbidden Land of Order has a very special feature compared to other forbidden lands: it is an unclaimed land where the will of Heaven slumbers.

Whether it was for this reason or something else, whenever the Lord of Order intended to descend in his true form, he would always awaken the will of Heaven in the Land of No Man's Land... and after that, the mysterious powerhouse who suppressed the nine forbidden lands would always awaken at that time.

The Lord of Eternity looked around at the other forbidden lords: "The Azure Emperor, Gong Lian Yue, and perhaps the Empress of the Demon Realm? Does Mu Zhi'an really think that the three Ascension Realm experts can protect him forever? Is that why he's so openly out having fun with a woman at this critical juncture?"

"Or does he think that his identity as a disciple of the Two Elements Sect will make us wary?"

The Liangyi Sect does indeed hold a prominent position in the Nine Provinces, but for the ancient forbidden lords, there is no one in this world who can truly make them submit, except for the Heavenly Dao.

Even the supreme expert who once suppressed the nine forbidden lands was not entirely convinced... Although they were indeed suppressed repeatedly, the other party could not completely erase them from this world.

Ultimately, their strength should be roughly equal, but her Taoist techniques are ever-changing and too complex, making her difficult to deal with.

"According to the original agreement, if Mu Zhi'an really secretly gets the protection of Qingdi and others, you should stop him and I will take Mu Zhi'an away."

The Lord of Eternity slowly said, "I made a promise to the Great Dao that I would not deal with Mu Zhian immediately after capturing him, but would wait until everyone was present before making a decision. I hope you all have no objections now?"

Mu Zhi glanced at the tall man with a dark look in her eyes, and said in a seemingly casual tone, "Then how should we handle the situation on the Great Qian Dynasty side? You must have been secretly contacting the Great Qian royal family these past few days, encouraging them to rebel, right?"

"When the Great Qian Dynasty falls, how will the fate of the nation be divided?"

Isis said with a smile, "The fate of the nation depends on each person's ability. In any case, the Great Qian Dynasty must be destroyed this time. Only in this way can the Heavenly Dao descend upon the Nine Provinces and give us more authority. I can feel that the power of the Heavenly Dao is much stronger than before. It seems that it is about to completely restore its former supreme glory."

She looked around at everyone and said with a smile, "Since no one has any objections, let's capture Mu Zhian first."

“Mu Zhian’s strength is not as simple as it seems. Directly attacking him may fail. If possible, we can start with the woman beside him,” Mu Zhi suddenly said.

Upon hearing this, the Forbidden Lords were all taken aback. Isis narrowed her beautiful eyes and said, "Are you sure capturing the woman next to Mu Zhi'an will make him submit?"

Mu Zhi said calmly, "Mu Zhi'an values ​​relationships very much, so once he catches that woman, he will definitely give in."

"When the Azure Emperor ascended to immortality, you all witnessed Mu Zhi'an's combat prowess. If you directly attack him, who can guarantee that he can unleash strength beyond his current level?"

Upon hearing this, the voices above the sky fell silent for a moment.

After a moment, the Lord of Eternity chuckled softly: "The Lord of Life is right. In that case, let's start with the women beside him."

The Lord of Eternity slowly extended his palm, and a withered leaf quietly appeared in his hand.

The forbidden item of the Eternal Forbidden Land, the Red Dust Leaf.

Users must sacrifice one-third of their lifespan, and in return, the Red Dust Leaf can encompass everything, making it impossible for anyone in the world to escape its bondage.

Although the price seems heavy, the lifespan of the Forbidden Lords is inherently infinite, because they are blessed by the Heavenly Dao.

Therefore, in the hands of the Eternal Lord, this Red Dust Leaf can naturally unleash its greatest power!

Even if the true form of the Eternal Lord is not here, simply using this forbidden item would be enough to take away the woman who is with Mu Zhian.

She can only blame her bad luck for choosing Mu Zhi'an as her Daoist partner.

……

In the afternoon on the outskirts of the city, Mu Zhian sat under a big tree, squinting as he watched the dappled sunlight and shadows fall, holding Miss Tiandao's small hand in one hand, enjoying this leisurely time.

Suddenly, he felt a slight chill on his back, and a strange coldness crept up from the bottom of his heart.

"It seems that even a forbidden master has finally made a move?"

Mu Zhian smiled and turned to look at the young lady Tiandao beside him, who was wearing a plain dress and sitting on the lawn with one leg to the side.

She leaned on Mu Zhian's shoulder, looking obedient and well-behaved.

Her face was veiled, and beneath it, her exquisite features seemed to have been meticulously sculpted by the heavens, her beautiful eyes exceptionally serene.

Her figure is also perfectly proportioned, and you can't see a single flaw on her.

It is beautiful, but it has a cold and aloof feel to it.

"Will you blame me?" Mu Zhian suddenly asked.

"To me, my master gave me a second life, so I will obey any command from my master."

Miss Tiandao gazed calmly at Mu Zhian and said, "Even if the enemy is a forbidden place, it is no exception."

Miss Tiandao tilted her head and continued, "But Master, are you sure they'll come looking for me first instead of targeting you?"

“Although you are powerful, you do not understand people’s hearts, especially the Lord of Forbidden Things,” Mu Zhi’an said with a smile.

The Forbidden Lords are indeed very powerful. If they are empowered by forbidden rules, they might even be able to fight to a draw with those in the Feather Transformation Realm, not to mention the added benefit of forbidden objects.

However... after being suppressed by Shang Yanfei for countless years, those forbidden lords have not appeared for a long time and have become overly cautious.

Before meeting Mu Zhi, Mu Zhi'an felt he might not have been able to catch any fish.

But now that Mu Zhi is 'advising' several forbidden masters, he doesn't need to do anything anymore; he just needs to wait for Mu Zhi's impromptu performance.

Miss Tiandao still had doubts and was about to speak.

Just then, a gentle voice suddenly rang in their ears: "Fellow Daoist Mu is truly leisurely and refined, even when chaos is imminent, you still have the time to come out for a rendezvous with a girl to relax."

In the soft light, a tall and handsome man descended from the sky.

His aura locked onto Mu Zhian almost instantly, as he toyed with the leaf in his hand.

The sudden sound made Mu Zhian's eyes widen abruptly as he stared at the man before him:

"The Forbidden Lord?!"

"Stop pretending. As a Human Emperor in the Feather Transformation Realm, they can lock onto your presence at any time, no matter where you are in the Nine Provinces. The fact that you brought a woman out for a secret rendezvous today is just to lure us into a trap, isn't it?"

The Lord of Eternity chuckled lightly: "However, you probably underestimate the unity of the Forbidden Lands."

Mu Zhian's expression finally changed slightly: "You've joined forces?!"

The Eternal Lord remained noncommittal: "You should be grateful for this. Apart from you, the only other person who could get us to join forces in the past was that person."

"Once the Azure Emperor realizes we've made our move, he'll probably come to your rescue along with two other Ascension Realm cultivators..."

The Lord of Eternity's expression suddenly turned cold: "But before that, you will fall into my hands!"
