Chapter 644: Chapter 644

Shang Yanfei is the Primordial Mother?

And why does she seem so close to Mu Zhian…?

Gong Lianyue looked at the two of them, her mind reeling, her worldview shattered.

Her Dao Heart was even a little unstable.

Especially seeing the scene before her, the shock was indescribable.

Just then, Shang Yanfei’s gentle voice sounded. She looked up at Gong Lianyue and asked, “Is something the matter?”

It’s not about me, it’s about you… Gong Lianyue’s red lips parted slightly, about to say something, but the words caught in her throat.

Just then, Mu Zhian finally snapped out of his trance, having been absorbing the Primordial Spiritual Energy.

The words came out almost instinctively, but because of his Nine-Tailed Heavenly Fox body regressing his age, his voice sounded somewhat childish.

At this moment, Mu Zhian was a little shocked.

Shouldn’t Yao Meng still be outside? Why did she let her in…

Mu Zhian’s mind raced. Seeing Gong Lianyue’s ‘shocked’ expression, even he felt a sense of social death.

To be caught in this scene by Nai Xi, this is truly social death…

Mu Zhian composed himself and maintained his composure, “Palace Master, why are you here?”

His tone was as calm as possible, but he casually wiped the corner of his mouth.

Gong Lianyue finally came back to her senses. Looking at Mu Zhian again, her eyes were filled with disdain, as if looking at a pervert, “I came a little early, interrupting your sweet time with the Primordial Mother.”

No wonder the Jade Empress’s expression was so strange earlier. So she knew what was happening here all along.

The Jade Empress is trying to use a wolf to swallow a tiger, to make her and the Primordial Mother fight, so she can reap the benefits…

Thinking of this, a hint of displeasure appeared in Gong Lianyue’s eyes. She almost wanted to draw her sword and slash that bitch Jade Empress.

Just then, a voice suddenly came from within her body.

Bai Ruoxi was calling her…

Gong Lianyue knew that this girl was worried about her Mu Lang and wanted to come out and see him.

She could only sigh softly in her heart and close her eyes slightly.

Mu Zhian could clearly see that Gong Lianyue’s aura, from the original sharpness, gradually became gentle.

The black part of her black and white interwoven palace dress silently faded, and her bosom seemed to have grown a size in an instant.

Full and perky, even surpassing the Primordial Mother, Shang Yanfei.

Putting everything else aside, Nai Xi was truly big… truly eye-catching.

Mu Zhian sighed inwardly, then his gaze fell on Bai Ruoxi.

He was about to say something, but just then, Bai Ruoxi said in a cool and gentle tone, “Mu Lang doesn’t need to explain, I know Mu Lang has his reasons… Otherwise, Senior Jade Empress wouldn’t have been waiting at the door just now, instead of coming to stop Mu Lang.”

This wasn’t hard to guess if one just calmed down and thought about it.

A powerful fairy like the Jade Empress, even facing the Primordial Mother, wouldn’t just hand over Mu Lang for no reason.

The other party being willing to turn a blind eye… there was naturally a reason.

Ruoxi is truly considerate and kind, she understands me so well… Mu Zhian was greatly relieved, feeling not so socially dead anymore.

Just then, Bai Ruoxi’s gaze fell softly on young Mu Zhian, a blush creeping up her pretty face, and she said softly, “I remember Mu Lang used to like staring at my chest… At first I thought it was just a physiological reaction, but now it seems, perhaps it’s because Mu Lang has some special interests?”

Young Mu Zhian was stunned for a moment, unable to hold back, “Ruoxi, I was just trying to repair that drop of Immortal Ascension Realm essence blood.”

However, the more Bai Ruoxi listened, the darker her gaze became, until finally, her gaze at young Mu Zhian was incredibly subtle, as if saying: Pervert, keep talking, I’m listening.

But just then, Mu Zhian suddenly had a flash of inspiration and sighed softly, “Forget it, whether you believe me or not, just being able to see you here, I’m already very happy.”

Bai Ruoxi clearly didn’t believe him, just pouted, “Mu Lang is having a good time in the Heavenly Palace, you’ve probably already forgotten about me, right? How could you possibly think of me?”

As she spoke, she glanced at the motherly Shang Yanfei and said softly, “With Primordial Spiritual Energy to cultivate every day, and being immortal… Mu Lang’s life in the Heavenly Court is much more comfortable than in the Nine Provinces.”

Mu Zhian shook his head, “Actually, when I was absorbing the Primordial Spiritual Energy just now, I couldn’t help but think of you.”

He gazed at Bai Ruoxi with sincerity and said seriously, “I can swear on this, I’m not lying.”

Just now, when he was absorbing Primordial Spiritual Energy from Sect Master Sister, he did indeed think of Bai Ruoxi.

After all, in the entire fishpond, Nai Xi’s bust was the most impressive, only Ye Qingxin could compete.

Hearing Mu Zhian’s sincere oath, Bai Ruoxi’s heart almost melted, her eyes gazing at him with tender affection.

So Mu Lang was still thinking of her, keeping her in his heart, even when he was with the Primordial Mother… No other girl in his life has this kind of treatment, right?

Shang Yanfei remained silent from beginning to end, just watching everything with a smile. Then she gently stroked Mu Zhian’s hair, her eyes filled not with jealousy, but with relief.

This child has really grown up… so good at comforting people.

She sighed softly in her heart again.

Just then, Mu Zhian suddenly asked, “By the way, Ruoxi, did you come to find me for something important?”

Bai Ruoxi finally reacted and briefly recounted what happened in the Nine Provinces earlier.

“The Path to Immortality has manifested in the World Sea?”

Mu Zhian’s eyes held a thoughtful look, then he looked at Shang Yanfei.

Although she didn’t say anything, Shang Yanfei seemed to understand what Mu Zhian wanted to ask.

“This should be a Heavenly Court rule you set in a certain timeline in the past. Before the Heavenly Dao descends, the Path to Immortality will appear, allowing some of the great powers in the Nine Provinces to break free from the shackles of heaven and earth and ascend to the Heavenly Court,” Shang Yanfei said in a gentle tone.

“So, the Path to Immortality appearing is indeed a Heavenly Court rule I set in the past?”

A thoughtful look appeared on Mu Zhian’s face, then, as if recalling something important, his train of thought was suddenly interrupted.

He subconsciously looked up, “Wait… what did you just say?”

Bai Ruoxi also subconsciously looked at Shang Yanfei, as if not quite understanding what she said.

“Didn’t I tell you before?”

Shang Yanfei gently pulled up her dress, covering her holy and flawless sacred body.

A dense immortal rhyme emanated from her.

Gazing at Mu Zhian, she said in a gentle tone, “This world has been rebooted more than once… This world’s timeline has also been rebooted more than once.”

“But in every timeline, you didn’t exist.”

Mu Zhian was stunned for a moment, still not understanding Shang Yanfei’s words.

“Have you ever considered why, when you’re in this world, the Heavenly Dao can’t sense your existence?”

Shang Yanfei said softly, “Is it simply because I shielded destiny?”

She gently caressed Mu Zhian’s face, “It’s not just that.”

“It’s because you were dead from the very beginning.”

“Or rather, in this world, there was no such person as Mu Zhian from the very beginning.”

Mu Zhian’s eyes flickered slightly, and he even forgot to continue absorbing the Primordial Spiritual Energy.

He recalled what Lan Feiying had told him before.

“My existence, wasn’t it erased by you, to deceive the Heavenly Dao?” Mu Zhian asked.

Shang Yanfei’s beautiful eyes flowed, a gentleness in them, “The Heavenly Dao once expended its own power to suppress you. It condensed all its power into an arrow and shot it at you.”

“Being locked onto by that arrow meant certain death. That wasn’t just death, but completely disappearing from this world. No one would remember your name, everything about you would be erased.”

Mu Zhian was stunned for a moment, then couldn’t help but shiver slightly.

Not just death, but the complete erasure of one’s existence…

This was actually more terrifying than death.

If it were just death, at least there would still be people who remembered you.

But if one was pierced by the Heavenly Dao’s Origin Arrow, no one in this world would remember him.

As if Mu Zhian never existed in this world.

Shang Yanfei’s eyes remained calm, and she continued, “I couldn’t change that arrow, so all I could do was change what had already happened, try to save you from history.”

“After that, I found that in countless timelines, you didn’t exist.”

The person shot by the Heavenly Dao’s Origin Arrow, even changing history couldn’t find that person. This was the truly terrifying part.

Just imagining it made Mu Zhian feel a sense of despair.

But when he looked at Shang Yanfei, he found that the Sect Master’s expression was always calm, as if she were just talking about something irrelevant, indifferent. Chapters fırst released on novel•fire.net

She said in a calm and gentle tone, “I wasn’t willing to give up, so I observed countless timelines, repeating and repeating, until finally, in hundreds of millions of timelines, I found your existence.”

The Primordial Mother was the origin of everything. The timeline she observed would become the real world, while the other timelines would directly disappear.

But to keep repeating the same thing, until she was completely numb… Mu Zhian couldn’t imagine what she had been through.

“I remember Ancestor Lan Shihuai once said that you also rebooted the entire Nine Provinces. Why?” Mu Zhian asked subconsciously.

“Because in the only timeline where you existed, you still died in the end.”

Shang Yanfei said calmly, “From then on, I knew that the Heavenly Dao’s Origin Arrow symbolized a fixed destiny, it was causality.”

“From the moment the Heavenly Dao used that arrow, your ‘death’ was destined. No matter what you did during that time, you couldn’t change the outcome.”

“Before you died, I rebooted the entire Nine Provinces, letting everything start over. Just like playing a game, if you fail, you just reload the save,” she even had the mood to say this in a joking tone.

Mu Zhian stared at Shang Yanfei in a daze. He finally understood the truth of the world.

The truth of the Nine Provinces’ reboot.

The Heavenly Dao’s Origin Arrow was aimed at him… The Primordial Witch spiritual sense in the depths of the Southern Wilderness was forced to slumber to suppress the Heavenly Dao’s Origin Arrow.

All of this was Shang Yanfei’s scheme from the very beginning. She needed to guide the course of all events during the time the Primordial Witch suppressed the Heavenly Dao’s Origin Arrow, in order to deal with that arrow.

“Where is that Heavenly Dao’s Origin Arrow now?” Mu Zhian suddenly asked.

He just remembered that the Primordial Witch’s spiritual sense had already returned to Wei Mengrou’s body, but the Heavenly Dao’s Origin Arrow seemed to have shown no movement.

“It’s already been dealt with,” Shang Yanfei said with a faint smile.

Dealt with so easily…?

Just as this thought appeared in Mu Zhian’s mind, he quickly relaxed.

Sect Master Sister had been planning all this from the past, she was naturally well-prepared.

He just didn’t know how she dealt with the Heavenly Dao’s Origin Arrow, which symbolized ‘causality’.

Seeing Mu Zhian’s curiosity, Shang Yanfei suddenly said faintly, “Aren’t you curious why the Heavenly Dao wants to suppress you?”

Mu Zhian subconsciously looked at this breathtakingly beautiful woman.

Bai Ruoxi also subconsciously looked over, her small face filled with astonishment. The information she received today had completely overloaded her brain.

“The Heavenly Dao attacked Mu Lang because he threatened the Heavenly Dao’s existence? But logically, isn’t your existence more dangerous to the Heavenly Dao?” Bai Ruoxi asked subconsciously.

Shang Yanfei gently gazed at the fox-eared handsome young man before her, didn’t answer, but instead said something seemingly irrelevant, “In the beginning, when ‘humans’ hadn’t been born yet, the only person by my side was him.”

“Until one day, all living beings were born. Later, he accidentally saved something in the Nine Provinces that couldn’t be called a living being.”

“That thing grew very quickly.”

“At first, it had no self-awareness.”

Bai Ruoxi’s eyes flickered slightly, as if thinking of something, a thought flashed through her mind, and she subconsciously asked, “Did Mu Lang save the Heavenly Dao?”

Shang Yanfei nodded silently.

The Nine Provinces of the past weren’t the Nine Provinces, but a whole chaotic world.

That world was called the ‘Nine Heavens and Ten Earths’.

There were no humans, and no living beings.

Until later, the Primordial Mother created the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, each world independent and isolated, a world of its own.

The Heavenly Court and the Firmament were both one of the worlds.

Among them, the Nine Provinces were the largest and most suitable for living beings to inhabit.

With the passage of time, the Nine Provinces began to nurture living beings.

The Heavenly Dao was also born because of living beings.

At first, to maintain the limited Spiritual Energy of the Nine Provinces, the Heavenly Dao wove the rules of heaven and earth, constraining all living beings.

Until later, the Heavenly Dao became sick.

The negative emotions of all living beings were reflected on the Heavenly Dao. It began to weaken and could no longer control the rules of heaven and earth.

After that, as Shang Yanfei said before, Mu Zhian, somewhere in the Nine Provinces, saved the ‘sick’ Heavenly Dao.

Mu Zhian’s eyes were filled with suspicion and uncertainty, trying to digest what Shang Yanfei had said.

After the birth of the Nine Provinces, living beings appeared, and the will of those living beings nurtured the aggregate of all living beings, the ‘Heavenly Dao’.

Later, the Heavenly Dao gradually became ‘sick’ because of the negative emotions of all living beings. It disappeared from the Nine Provinces, but was accidentally saved by him.

Why did the Heavenly Dao become now?

Mu Zhian’s eyes flickered slightly.

“I think you’ve already guessed it.”

Shang Yanfei said in a gentle tone:

“The humanity the Heavenly Dao now possesses was given to it by you.”
