So, They Were the Protagonists All Along

Chapter 180 The Storm Is Coming 5K (1/2)

Qingyang Hall.

Mu Zhian walked into the main hall and saw a huge competition stage.

Not far from the competition platform, there is a teahouse. Next to the teahouse is a clear lake, surrounded by mountains and rivers, with an excellent view.

At this moment, there are many disciples discussing on the stage, and there are also monks discussing Taoism in the teahouse.

Mu Zhian looked leisurely at the sect disciples who were sparring on the stage. Many sect disciples present noticed the presence of the two of them and couldn't help but look over.

Mu Zhian responded with a smile every time.

When it comes to communicating with the outside world, Mu Zhian has always adhered to the principle of making friends with others if they can, and at least not offending them if they can't.

Of course, if the other party came to him on his own, he wouldn't be so embarrassed.

At this time, he suddenly noticed that there seemed to be two slightly familiar eyes in the crowd looking here. Mu Zhian looked in the direction of those two eyes.

Ye Lingxuan, and her sister Ye Qian beside her.

Both of them were a little shy when they were outside. Ye Lingxuan just smiled reservedly, while Ye Qian called out "Brother Mu" softly.

How could they be in this area... Mu Zhian thought about it and smiled at the two of them.

Ye Lingxuan and Ye Qian are currently in the Qi Training Realm, and this is basically a place for disciples of the God Refining Realm to spar. Logically speaking, they shouldn't be here.

"Lingxuan, and Qian'er, why are you here?" Mu Zhian looked at the two walking figures and couldn't help but reveal a kind and gentle smile.

Ye Qian raised his eyes and glanced at Mu Zhian secretly, and whispered: "Sister said that if brother Mu came to Qingyang Hall today, he would be here, so he brought me here."

Sure enough, it was Lingxuan's idea... Mu Zhian subconsciously looked at Ye Lingxuan, but saw the girl smiling and said: "After all, Brother Mu and Sister Ruoxi are both in the God Refining Realm now, so I want to verify myself speculation."

"It turns out I was not wrong,"

Ye Lingxuan's eyes were intentionally or unintentionally directed at this beauty in palace attire who had the aura of a cold young lady, and continued: "Brother Mu is indeed here with sister Ruoxi."

At the end of the sentence, Ye Lingxuan's smile when she looked at Bai Ruoxi seemed to be a little more profound.

But Bai Ruoxi's expression remained as usual. She stared at Ye Lingxuan tenderly and said, "Speaking of which, Mu Lang has to go to the Law Enforcement Hall later? If you don't mind, leave sisters Lingxuan and Qian'er to me today. I will take them. They were hanging around Qingyang Hall."

As he said that, he couldn't help but look at Mu Zhian who was standing aside, as if asking for his opinion, with the posture of a well-behaved and gentle young lady.

"Brother Mu, why are you going to the Law Enforcement Hall so well?" Ye Qian couldn't help but ask.

"Maybe it has something to do with the fact that someone went through the tribulation in Tianxuan City two days ago?" Ye Lingxuan asked.

When she went to Daofeng two days ago, she happened to hear Daofeng's senior sister mention that in Tianxuan City not far from the foot of Liangyi Sect Mountain, there seemed to be a monk who had returned to the void through spiritual refinement and entered the realm of land gods.

The Mu family used to have a great business in Tianxuan City. It would be better if the members of the Mu family were promoted and returned to the void. But if other family forces... the situation in Tianxuan City would be completely changed.

A monk who has returned to the Void Realm can control the wind and rain anywhere in Jiuzhou.

Mu Zhian nodded slightly and praised sincerely: "Sure enough, nothing can be hidden from Sister Lingxuan."

Ye Lingxuan smiled sweetly and said: "It's just the most basic speculation. I think Brother Mu's character will definitely want to go back to Tianxuan City."

Speaking of this, her voice suddenly changed and continued: "Brother Mu is now a disciple of the Liangyi Sect. If the family that is promoted to return to the void this time is not the Mu family... the other party may not dare to attack you, but brother Mu will also definitely Remember not to take the initiative, as this will give them a reason to fight back.”

When people from the outside see the disciples of the Liang Yi Sect, they will look at them with respect.

Also because they are afraid of being retaliated by the Liang Yi Sect, few people will take the initiative to attack the disciples of the Liang Yi Sect.

But once the person who takes the initiative is the disciples of the sect, when the other party strikes back... even the Liangyi Sect will have nothing to say.

Mu Zhian shook his head and said with a smile: "Do you think I am the kind of impulsive person?"

Ye Lingxuan stared at Mu Zhian and said with a smile: "It doesn't look like that."

"However," she paused and continued: "Brother Mu is still very impulsive sometimes when it comes to emotions."

For example, in the first two nights, if she hadn't stopped Mu Zhian, Mu Zhian would have stayed in her room that night... What would have happened after that, it's not difficult to guess just by imagining it.

When Bai Ruoxi heard this, she also glanced at Mu Zhian faintly and said, "Mr. Mu is indeed very impulsive when it comes to emotions."

That's not called impulsive, it's just a simple LSP attack... Mu Zhian noticed that the two men were staring at him dimly, and he used a smile to cover up his embarrassment.

Although I hope that the three girls can live in harmony, living in harmony does not mean that they have to deal with me together...

Of course, if you treat him together while sleeping at night, he actually doesn't mind very much.

Also, Ruoxi's attitude toward Lingxuan and Qian'er seemed quite friendly today... Mu Zhian looked at the gentle and pleasant Miss Bai beside him, then nodded and accepted Bai Ruoxi's inquiry, and said: " I'll go to the Law Enforcement Hall first, and I'll leave Qian'er and Lingxuan to you."

Bai Ruoxi smiled and nodded, watching Mu Zhian turn around and walk towards the depths of Qingyang Hall.

Behind her, Ye Qian looked at Mu Zhian's back with some worry, and suddenly whispered: "Brother Mu, will he be okay?"

She always had a feeling that a storm was coming these two days, and this feeling started when someone in Tianxuan City entered the Return to Void Realm that day.

Mu Zhian knew several chiefs in Liangyi Sect, but this did not mean that he could ask several chiefs to help him solve his troubles.

Part of the reason why Liangyi Sect has such a sacred status in Dongzhou is that Liangyi Sect never intervenes in disputes between Dongzhou forces, unless it involves the murder of disciples or the discovery of special circumstances of demon cultivators.

In other cases, they will not take action.

Mu Zhian will not let them break this precedent.

And based on her understanding of Mu Zhian, Mu Zhian is not the kind of person who would make things difficult for several chiefs and force them to help.

"Don't worry, Brother Mu is now a disciple of Liangyi Sect. As long as he is still in Liangyi Sect, no one in Dongzhou will dare to take action against him openly." Ye Lingxuan comforted her sister.

Ye Qian still had a worried look on her face, and whispered, "But what if someone designed to force Brother Mu to take action, as my sister just said?"

Once it became a situation where Mu Zhian took the initiative to take action, the other party would have a reason to say that he had to protect himself.

"No, he is very rational." Ye Lingxuan comforted her sister softly.

She stared at the calm lake and continued, "If Brother Mu really encountered any danger... that family would no longer have any need to exist."

Bai Ruoxi also stared at the lake, and she never spoke.

Give her another half year, and after she refines the spirit and returns to the void, she will have a place in the entire Dongzhou.

By then, she can truly protect the people around her.

Looking at this scene, Ye Qian also clenched her fists slightly, and secretly made up her mind to practice hard.

Today's Ye Qian is no longer the same as before. She has obtained the inheritance of the Green Emperor, and her future achievements will certainly not be low.

The real protagonists are already growing up gradually.

If Mu Zhian heard the conversation between the few people here at this moment, I think he would be quite relieved.

However, Mu Zhian naturally didn't know what happened in Qingyang Hall at this moment. After walking along a straight and deep path for a while, he saw the entrance of a cave.

This cave was built by the head of the Law Enforcement Hall. In the sect, the Law Enforcement Hall has a very high status and is not affiliated with any main peak.

The only two neutral forces in Liangyi Sect are the Law Enforcement Hall and the Library.

Just as Mu Zhian was about to enter the cave, he was immediately stopped by a disciple at the door.

"Who are you?" The male disciple looked at Mu Zhian with an indifferent expression.

"Disciple Mu Zhian, I plan to find time to go down the mountain in the next two days, so I came to the Law Enforcement Hall to apply for this matter. Please trouble this senior brother to go in and report it." Mu Zhian replied respectfully.

It is not difficult for disciples of the sect to go down the mountain at ordinary times, but if they want to go out for a long time, they must explain to the elders of the Law Enforcement Hall.

A few days ago, when Mu Zhian went to Tianxuan City, he planned to go and come back, so naturally he didn't need to explain this matter to the people of the Law Enforcement Hall.

But if you plan to leave the sect for more than three days, it will be different.

This time, Mu Zhian went to Qingyang Hall to see the strength of these talented disciples and to go to the Law Enforcement Hall to explain his plan to go down the mountain.

"Are you Mu Zhian..." The senior brother's eyes softened a little, obviously he had heard a lot about Mu Zhian in the sect in the past few days.

"Please wait outside, my brother, I will report to the master."

After saying that, he walked into the cave.

After a while, he returned to the cave and said, "You can go in."

"Thank you, Senior Brother." Mu Zhian clasped his fists again.

Then, he stepped into the cave.

The cave looked small, but after entering it, a completely different scene appeared in the field of vision.

A magnificent hall was located in the field of vision. Mu Zhian strode towards the hall and saw many notice boards along the way, with various tokens hanging on them.

This is a sect mission. After completing the corresponding sect mission, you will get the sect's contribution value.

In Liangyi Sect, contribution points are much more valuable than spirit stones.

Some elixirs or medicinal materials that can be bought with contribution points cannot be bought with spirit stones, and even if they can be bought, they are usually priced at a sky-high price.

Therefore, the contribution of the sect is extremely precious in Liangyi Sect.

Mu Zhian was about to step into the hall when he saw a cultivator in a gorgeous robe walking out.

The man didn't look handsome, but his temperament was pretty good. His lips were thin, his eyebrows were full of arrogance, and his triangular eyes looked particularly gloomy.

At first glance, you can tell that this is a little villain, and he was the character used as a stepping stone for 'Ye Yu' to slap him in the face.

"Master Gongsun, how come it's such a coincidence? Why are you here at the Law Enforcement Hall today?" Mu Zhian took the initiative to greet him with a smile.

Seeing that Gongsun Cheng didn't pay any attention, Mu Zhian continued to smile and said, "Did you commit a crime?"

Gongsun Cheng snorted coldly, "Master Mu and I are different. I just came here to perform some sect tasks."

After that, he no longer paid attention to Mu Zhian, but strode out of the Law Enforcement Hall.

Mu Zhian didn't say anything, but his eyes inadvertently fell on the sect token in Gongsun Cheng's hand, and his eyes were a little thoughtful.

If it were normal, Mu Zhian wouldn't care about what Gongsun Cheng did.

But the other party happened to come to the Law Enforcement Hall to apply for going down the mountain at this time... Obviously, Gongsun Cheng is not just going down the mountain for one or two days.

That's worth pondering.

Mu Zhian quietly retracted his gaze and walked into the Law Enforcement Hall.

...

Tianxuan City.

Gongsun Family.

Gongsun Xiong sat cross-legged in front of the table and slowly opened his eyes. After the breath adjustment just now, the turbid eyes were finally suppressed.

The Tongmai Pill that Bai Yuanfeng sent him at the beginning was indeed problematic... Gongsun Xiong's face was extremely gloomy.

No wonder, since taking the Tongmai Pill that Bai Yuanfeng sent him at the beginning, his health has been getting worse day by day.

At first, he did not suspect the Tongmai Pill. It was not until a few days ago that he was lucky enough to get the guidance of a master and broke through the peak of the spirit refining that he finally realized that the abnormality in his body was caused by the Tongmai Pill.

Bai Yuanfeng, from the beginning, never betrayed the Bai family, but coveted the territory of the Gongsun family... Tongmai Pills were the first step to occupy the territory of the Gongsun family.

If it weren't for the influence of Tongmai Pills, with his current strength in the Return to Void Realm, wouldn't it be easy to annex the entire Tianxuan City?

When thinking of this, Gongsun Xiong couldn't help but hate the vicious woman of the Bai family a little more.

However, it doesn't matter.

In a few days, when the disordered meridians in the body are completely stabilized, the Bai family can be completely suppressed in a moment!

Gongsun Xiong looked up at the attendant in front of him and said in a deep voice: "What did the people from the Dawn Chamber of Commerce and the Bai family answer?"

The attendant standing in front of Gongsun Xiong was respectful and said carefully: "I didn't see Mr. Huang when I went to the Dawn Chamber of Commerce today. As for the Bai family..."

The attendant paused and said: "I was driven out before I could see the head of the Bai clan."

Gongsun Xiong smiled, his eyes indifferent, and said lightly: "Mr. Huang is very smart. It's normal that he doesn't want to stand on the side easily. Merchants pursue profits. He is not a big threat to me."

"But the Bai family... Do you think they can be safe and sound after being blessed by the Mu family?"

Gongsun Xiong stared at the attendant and said: "Send someone to the Mu family to invite the guest of the Mu family."

The guest of the Mu family is Ren Gao, one of the few three alchemists in Tianxuan City.

The attendant obviously hesitated and said, "Master, if we invite the guest of the Mu family for no reason, they probably won't go with us..."

"For no reason?" Gongsun Xiong shook his head and smiled, "The Bai family secretly harbors a demon cultivator, and the eldest son of the Mu family, Mu Zhian, has a close relationship with the daughter of the demon cultivator. How can the Mu family escape responsibility?"

After a brief hesitation, the attendant was horrified and stared at the burly Gongsun clan leader in front of him with fear, and finally realized something.

"Master, are you going to attack the Mu family...?"

"What do you mean by attack?"

Gongsun Xiong frowned slightly and smiled faintly: "This is Dongzhou. Don't you know what the crime of harboring a demon cultivator is?"

"After today, I will return Tianxuan City to a clear and bright world!"

The attendant hesitated and said: "What if the Mu family stops us when we go to invite Mr. Ren?"

Gongsun Xiong shook his head and said firmly: "They won't stop us."

Tianxuan City is too close to Liangyi Sect. Once Bai Yuanfeng's identity as a demon cultivator is proven, the Mu family will also be implicated.

In the past, the Gongsun family stood on Mu Zhian's side because of the general trend. Now that he has returned to the Void Realm, there is no need to play the game of dividing the world into four parts with other families.

The game of dividing the world into four parts in Tianxuan City should end here.

...

That afternoon, Mu Zhian applied for the procedures to go down the mountain, and also booked a trip to the restricted area a month later.

As soon as he returned to Tianhe Garden, Mu Zhian noticed a cold gaze staring at him.

"Sister Mengrou, aren't you meditating? Why are you here?" Mu Zhian looked at the maid standing quietly at the door of Tianhe Garden with some surprise.

Wei Mengrou did not answer, but stared at Mu Zhian and said, "Are you planning to return to Tianxuan City?"

"We need to go back to confirm. If the person who is promoted to the Return to Void Realm is really from the Gongsun family, we have to think of a way." Mu Zhian said.

Although he himself felt that the probability was not very high.

After all, Gongsun Xiong probably did not notice that there was something wrong with the Tongmai Pills given by Bai Yuanfeng. Once Gongsun Xiong swallowed the Tongmai Pills, his spiritual energy would flow backwards. How could he be promoted to the Return to Void Realm?

Just as he thought of this, he saw a paper crane lightly landing beside him.

Two days ago, Mu Zhian borrowed a paper crane from Lan MuLian and wrote a letter to the Mu family. Now it seems that someone from the clan should have responded.

Under Wei Mengrou's gaze, Mu Zhian slowly opened the paper crane.

At the same time, the contents of the paper crane also appeared in the field of vision.

There is only one sentence on it: Gongsun Xiong has been promoted to the Return to Void Realm.

Mu Zhian stared at the words in the letter. Wei Mengrou on the side also saw the content in the letter. After hesitating for a moment, she whispered:

"If the person who is promoted to the Void Return Realm is Gongsun Xiong, it will be useless for you to go back."

The strength of returning to the void and refining the gods are not at the same level at all. The reason why the returning to the void is called land god is because it is too rare.

Although there seem to be many heads and elders of the Return to the Void Realm in the Liangyi Sect, in fact, it is difficult to see monks of the Return to the Void Realm in most places in Jiuzhou.

Mu Zhian silently put the paper crane into the ring and sighed: "It may not be useful if I return to Tianxuan City, but..."

He paused for a moment, then raised his head and stared in the direction of Canghai Peak.

"It will be very useful if the news of my return is released."
