Chapter 613: Chapter 613
Mu Zhian looked at Wei Mengrou’s dazed expression, himself also stunned.
Then, looking at the Heavenly Dao Energy swirling around the maid, he thought, Is this thing some kind of pervert, drawn to any beautiful woman?
If Wei Mengrou was the Primordial Mother, then who was the Sect Master?
“Is there something wrong with this thing…?”
Just then, Wei Mengrou’s voice pulled Mu Zhian back to reality.
The maid, like Mu Zhian, was in disbelief, her rosy lips slightly parted, her beautiful eyes fixed on the Heavenly Dao Energy swirling around her.
Then, she glanced at the young master hesitantly, “I’ve heard that sacred objects have spirits and their personalities are similar to their masters.”
“This Heavenly Dao Energy didn’t follow me at first, but only started swirling around me when we became intimate… This seems very much like you.”
As she spoke, the maid placed a finger against her red lips and looked Mu Zhian over, “Were you thinking of doing something naughty just now, and the Heavenly Dao Energy sensed your thoughts, so it…”
“I wasn’t thinking of doing anything naughty just now,” Mu Zhian shook his head and corrected her seriously, “I was already doing something naughty.”
If it weren’t for the Heavenly Dao Energy suddenly appearing and causing trouble, Sister Mengrou would probably be basking in the Spiritual Energy of the Innate Celestial Furnace right now.
The maid choked slightly, a blush quickly spreading across her fair and delicate face as she glanced at the young master.
“Does the Primordial Witch not have any memories related to this matter?” Mu Zhian suddenly asked.
Wei Mengrou came back to her senses and gently shook her head, “I don’t have any memories of the Primordial Mother… However, perhaps the last spiritual sense holds the key.”
She was naturally referring to the evil witch sealed in the depths of the Southern Wilderness.
However, logically, she couldn’t possibly be the Primordial Mother… At least, she didn’t think so.
Just as she thought of this, she suddenly noticed a gaze on her. Wei Mengrou came back to her senses and turned her head, “What’s wrong? You’ve been staring at me with those lewd eyes since just now… Hasn’t anyone told you that’s a very lewd look?”
“Sister Mengrou, your words are truly hurtful sometimes,” Mu Zhian sighed softly. “I was just thinking, if you really are the Primordial Mother, then that means I’ve been intimate with the mother of all living beings…”
Wei Mengrou frowned slightly, “You also think I’m her?”
Mu Zhian looked at Wei Mengrou quietly, “Honestly, I don’t quite believe it.”
“But it’s useless to talk about this now… After Yuanluo’s Spiritual Energy recovers, we can test the others and see if the Heavenly Dao Energy reacts.”
Wei Mengrou nodded gently, then suddenly froze, “The New Heavenly Dao’s Spiritual Energy is depleted? What did you do?”
Her pale golden eyes instantly darkened, a disdainful look on her face, as if saying, “You’re in for it now.”
“She just took me to the depths of the Heavenly Palace, and her Spiritual Energy was absorbed by the Primordial Mother,” Mu Zhian explained. “Ultimately, do you really think I’m the type to be aroused by a ball of light?”
Wei Mengrou scoffed and gently pushed away the Heavenly Dao Energy swirling around her, “Who knows?”
“Even if I had that thought, I couldn’t possibly force the New Heavenly Dao, could I?” Mu Zhian had no choice but to change his explanation.
A thoughtful look appeared on Wei Mengrou’s face, and she nodded gently, “That’s true.”
If Mu Zhian really approached the New Heavenly Dao with any intentions, he would probably be slapped out of the Heavenly Court by Yuanluo.
Not everyone had Wei Mengrou’s good temper, who would just give the young master a kick when he tried to get close to her in the past.
“Why don’t you doubt me a little more? It’s as if I’m very weak,” Mu Zhian said helplessly.
“You’re not weak, but before me, you are weak.”
Wei Mengrou was merciless, her words even more unfeeling as she mocked the young master.
In the eyes of outside cultivators, the Soul Transformation Realm was already a powerful expert, but to the current Wei Mengrou, the young master, who had just reached Soul Transformation, was indeed very weak.
At least, she could easily suppress him.
“Isn’t that a bit too harsh?”
Wei Mengrou thought for a moment, a faint mockery in her cool voice, “But you should know I’m not good at lying, so I apologize, Young Master.”
Mu Zhian suddenly placed his hands on Wei Mengrou’s shoulders, “To suppress someone like Sister Mengrou, I don’t even need to use Spiritual Energy.”
Before she could even make a sound, her lips were sealed by Mu Zhian’s.
However, this time, the maid didn’t struggle at all, a faint smile in her pale golden eyes.
Having been with Mu Zhian for so long, Wei Mengrou knew her young master’s personality very well. Normally, she wouldn’t care about other people’s mockery… but if the one mocking him was someone close to him, especially her… he would definitely want to punish her.
No one knew the young master better than she did.
Wei Mengrou was on the fifth level of this game.
While it was still night in the Eastern Continent, it was just after dawn in the Western Regions.
The sky in the Western Regions was always incredibly clear, a vast expanse of blue without a single cloud.
The land was barren. Compared to the lush greenery of the Demon Realm, the Western Regions gave off a sense of desolate loneliness.
The Nalanda Temple was a Buddhist holy land, also the center of the various kingdoms in the Western Regions. It could be said that more than ninety percent of the believers in the entire Western Regions worshipped Nalanda.
In the Western Regions, it was a symbol of majesty. As a power second only to the Eastern Continent in the Nine Provinces, Nalanda was a place of pilgrimage for monks and even the common people.
At the foot of this holy mountain, one could often see believers prostrating themselves every three steps, making their way towards Nalanda Temple with devotion.
And on this morning, a hazy gray mist silently drifted out from the back mountain of Nalanda Temple.
The ominous aura made the pilgrims somewhat uneasy.
“The Western Regions have always been at peace with the Forbidden Land of Reincarnation. For the Lord of Reincarnation to make such a big move this time, is there something important?”
Just then, a soft and pleasant voice sounded, carrying a charm that could instantly calm one’s heart.
The originally spreading gray mist seemed to recede slightly.
Under a lush green tree, a Bodhisattva in white appeared. Her face was hazy and blurry, her layered dress trailing on the ground. She hadn’t cut her hair, her long, flowing hair swaying in the wind, her glass-like eyes quietly gazing at a certain direction behind Nalanda Temple.
She stood barefoot on a lotus flower, as if untainted by the dust of the world.
The Lord of Reincarnation looked at the Bodhisattva in white from within the Forbidden Land and sighed softly, “In the past, the Nine Provinces could coexist peacefully with the Forbidden Lands because there was nothing that threatened the Forbidden Lands. But now the situation has changed. If we continue to observe from the sidelines, I’m afraid we’ll lose our place in the Nine Provinces.”
The female Bodhisattva’s face was cool and calm, her voice as crisp as a silver bell, “If the Lord of Reincarnation hadn’t interfered in the affairs of the Great Qian Dynasty in the Eastern Continent, how would you have gotten involved in this mess?”
“Even if I hadn’t gotten involved, trouble would have found me.”
The Lord of Reincarnation’s voice was soft and slow, “I came this time to make a deal with you.”
In the blink of an eye, three days passed.
It was finally the day he was supposed to meet Yuanluo, and in these three days, Mu Zhian’s Innate Celestial Furnace’s Spiritual Energy had fully recovered.
For the past three days, Mu Zhian had been patiently observing the situation in the Great Qian Dynasty, but all he could see was a scene of prosperity.
“No matter how I look at it, it seems impossible for the Heavenly Dao to use this opportunity to descend upon the Nine Provinces.”
“If it could descend even under these circumstances, it would mean the rules of heaven and earth no longer bind it.”
“But no matter how strong the Heavenly Dao is, it’s still just one of the three Daos of Heaven, Earth, and Human. It shouldn’t be able to completely ignore the rules.”
At this moment, Mu Zhian stood on top of a tall building in the Great Qian Dynasty, looking down at the vast capital.
Compared to the liveliness of the past few days, the capital seemed a bit quieter now.
However, this quietness wasn’t because there were fewer people, but because most of the cultivators who had been in the capital had already left.
To the common people, they were just living their ordinary lives, but the cultivators here all knew that a thrilling battle had taken place in the capital earlier.
And that battle ended with the defeat of the Forbidden Lands.
As for the identity of the person who fought against the Forbidden Lands, even most cultivators didn’t know.
They didn’t even know that while they were leaving the capital or staying, someone was watching everything from above.
“Mu Lang, if you’re going back to the sect, I’ll go with you. It’s been a while since I’ve seen the disciples in the sect,” a gentle and cool voice came from beside him. Bai Ruoxi gracefully walked to Mu Zhian’s side, stepping on the void, and said softly.
Mu Zhian only said that he wanted to return to the sect for a while and cultivate diligently, not revealing his true intentions.
It wasn’t that he deliberately wanted to hide it, but Shang Yanfei was too terrifying. Mu Zhian felt that unless he was in the Forbidden Zone or the Heavenly Court, the Sect Master would know most of his movements in the Nine Provinces.
He couldn’t possibly plot with Nai Xi and the others openly before Shang Yanfei, so he had to temporarily hide his suspicions about Shang Yanfei’s connection to that Immortal Ascension Realm immortal.
Mu Zhian smiled and nodded, then asked, “Alright, but is everything okay at the Sword Palace?”
Bai Ruoxi gently shook her head and said softly, “It’s fine, there are a few elders at the Sword Palace, they can manage even if I’m not there. Besides… this is the Palace Master’s Sword Palace, it doesn’t have much to do with me.”
“You sharp-tongued little girl, abandoning your own faction for a man. If this gets out, you’ll be laughed at by countless people,” Gong Lianyue’s voice suddenly came from the bottom of her heart, her tone filled with a hint of disappointment.
Bai Ruoxi replied softly in her heart, “This is indeed the Palace Master’s Sword Palace, isn’t it…? And didn’t the Palace Master also hope that I would reach Dao Integration as soon as possible and achieve the Nine-Tailed Heavenly Fox body? Without Mu Lang’s help, my cultivation would be several times slower than normal.”
“That doesn’t mean you can completely neglect your duties and ignore the affairs of the Sword Palace—”
Before she could finish, Bai Ruoxi said again, “And I’m also thinking of the Palace Master. You haven’t stabilized your ‘Heavenly Court seat’ after transcending, have you? With Mu Lang’s Innate Celestial Furnace’s help, you can stabilize it more easily.”
The Heavenly Court’s seat, after being bestowed, could grant a Dao Integration Realm expert the Dao Rhyme for Transcendence, but to completely secure this seat, it still required time.
Or, to accelerate this process with Heavenly Court Spiritual Energy.
“Perhaps in the future, the Palace Master can grow to the point of being able to suppress the Jade Empress… Then we can do whatever we like, right?” Bai Ruoxi continued with a smile.
As soon as Bai Ruoxi mentioned this, Gong Lianyue’s teeth itched with hatred, “You’ve already served that guy with the Jade Empress, how can I still attack the Jade Empress now?”
In Mu Zhian’s fishpond, several fish, and even big sharks, had watched helplessly as the Jade Empress cuckolded them.
Even someone as powerful as Gong Lianyue had suffered a few setbacks in the past.
If it weren’t for the current issue with the Heavenly Dao, she would have probably suppressed the Jade Empress with her sword long ago.
“The Palace Master is the Palace Master, I am me… I served Mu Lang with Senior Jade Empress, it has nothing to do with the Palace Master,” Bai Ruoxi said gently.
Gong Lianyue was momentarily speechless, tacitly agreeing with Bai Ruoxi’s words.
It had to be said, Bai Ruoxi’s suggestion did tempt the Sword Palace Master.
Now that Mu Zhian’s Innate Celestial Furnace was at Transcendence Realm, cultivating with him was far more efficient than cultivating alone.
Seeing Gong Lianyue’s silence, Bai Ruoxi also returned to reality from their conversation and looked up at Mu Zhian with a faint smile, “Let’s go, Mu Lang.”
After the three of them went to the Two Polarities Sect together, Mu Zhian parted ways with Wei Mengrou and Bai Ruoxi midway and flew alone towards Two Polarities Peak.
Plum blossoms bloomed on Two Polarities Peak this season, everywhere covered in snow, the cold winter wind bringing a chilling air.
However, this coldness, swirling around Mu Zhian, brought a strange sense of comfort.
“Every time I come to Two Polarities Peak, I feel a sense of comfort, as if I’ve come home.”
Mu Zhian sighed inwardly. Follow current ɴᴏᴠᴇʟs on noⅴelfire.net
At this moment, as the cold wind blew, Mu Zhian could clearly feel the abundant Spiritual Energy in the air, a familiar aura.
He hadn’t noticed it before because he had never meditated and cultivated here.
And back then, the forbidden rules within the Two Polarities Sect probably hadn’t been so widespread.
The density of the Spiritual Energy here was probably only slightly less than the Heavenly Court’s.
During his absence, the forbidden rules within the Two Polarities Sect had clearly increased again.
“Is Sect Master Sister planning to turn the Two Polarities Sect into a Forbidden Land…?”
Mu Zhian sat on the large flying sword transformed from the Measuring Ruler and sighed inwardly, “The density of the forbidden rules here should be no less than any Forbidden Land… even far surpassing them, right?”
On the surface, he seemed to be murmuring to himself, but he was actually trying to get some information from Yuanluo.
However, from the moment he entered Two Polarities Peak, she hadn’t said a single word, as if she had fallen into a deep slumber.
Little Yuanluo should have fully replenished her Spiritual Energy these past few days… Could something have gone wrong, did she run away?
Actually, he had been thinking about the Heavenly Dao Energy’s intimacy with Wei Mengrou these past two days.
Mu Zhian had already asked Yuanluo about this, and her answer was that she didn’t know what was going on.
Logically, only two people had refined the three portions of Heavenly Dao Energy within the Spirit Dragon: the Primordial Mother and Mu Zhian.
After all, long ago, the Primordial Mother had given the Heavenly Dao Energy to the Spirit Dragon for safekeeping. It was impossible for a third person to have refined it.
But if Wei Mengrou’s true body was the immortal in the depths of the Heavenly Palace, then Shang Yanfei’s identity would be a complete mystery.
“Forget it, since I’m here, I might find the answer after testing Sect Master Sister.”
Mu Zhian quickly shook his head, dispelling his thoughts, and walked into the back mountain of Two Polarities Peak.
