According to Ye Ning’s perspective, even if the spirit dragon spoke, if Mu Zhian really was the kind of profit-hungry, lecherous rascal the Ye family descendants claimed, Ye Ning wouldn’t have willingly pushed his daughter into a pit of doom. Obviously, Ye Yu must have exaggerated the details, and Mu Zhian might not be as incompetent as imagined. Nevertheless, sowing discord, stealing another's wife, and deceiving the Ye family’s two maidens was undeniably true. “What’s the deal with your fiancée?” Ye Qingxin cast a slight glance at Ye Yu. Her figure exuded perfect proportions, tall and sensual, accentuating a pair of rounded, jade-like long legs. Even though she completely restrained her aura, she exuded an aloofness that dominated all. Ye Yu was gazing at this ancestral figure, seemingly a bit lost. Upon hearing Ye Qingxin speak, he snapped to awareness, detecting the indifference in his ancestor's eyes. A flicker of panic crossed his face as he hurriedly averted his gaze. Gradually, a trace of resentment appeared on Ye Yu's face, and he explained the past incident of Bai Ruoxi breaking their engagement. Yet, this time Ye Qingxin showed little emotional fluctuation, calmly stating, “Marriage shouldn't be decided by parents. If Bai Ruoxi never liked you, breaking off for her own happiness is normal.” “She was simply bewitched by Mu Zhian back then! If she truly wanted the break, why didn’t she do it earlier but only after spending some time with Mu Zhian?” Ye Yu snapped his head up, a defiant tint in his eyes. However, Ye Qingxin clearly supported Bai Ruoxi's stance, speaking in a slightly educational tone, “What’s past is past. Enhance yourself, and you’ll naturally have excellent and beautiful companions in the future.” After a pause, she continued, “As for whether the so-called number one beauty of Tianxuan City was indeed bewitched by Mu Zhian, I’ll have a look tomorrow to find out.” “If Mu Zhian truly bewitched your fiancée and stole another’s wife... I’ll stand up for you.” Ye Yu’s eyes lit up with joy, and he immediately bowed, saying, “Thank you, Ancestor!” While bowing, his sidelong glance inadvertently fell on Ye Qingxin's attire—a robe interwoven with red and white threads accentuating her flawless figure. To have a chance with such a woman, even if it meant dying immediately afterward, was worth it. It was a pity she was the Ye family’s ancestor; even if his heart flickered, Ye Yu dared not harbor disrespectful thoughts and instead bit his tongue lightly, suppressing the ideas in his mind. Ye Qingxin said gently, “Aren't those two Ye family girls in the Glazed Hall now? If you wish, I can take you to see them for a while.” Ye Yu felt a stir of excitement but, after thinking it over, calmly replied, “It's the time of the Ascension Convention now, and Lingxuan is probably meditating and cultivating. Better to wait till tomorrow.” Despite being tempted, it was already night, and a cultivator's time was for meditation and growth. Disturbing Qian’er and Lingxuan now would only annoy them. After all, there’s an important contest tomorrow. Ye Qingxin pondered a moment, slightly nodded, “Fine, we’ll see what this Mu Zhian is truly made of tomorrow.” Saying this, she suddenly seemed to sense something, lifting her gaze toward a distant arch bridge. Upon the bridge stood a beauty with teacolor hair, looking in this direction. Ye Siyu, sister to the Forbidden Zone Queen. Noticing the attention, Ye Siyu's face first showed surprise, then quickly turned into a sweet smile. Ye Qingxin looked back and smiled faintly, saying, “I’ve got some matters to deal with. You may go back.” ... After Ye Yu departed, Ye Qingxin stepped forward, appearing on the bridge in the next moment. She gazed at Ye Siyu's exquisite and pretty face, her amber-like eyes showing a touch of nostalgia, saying, “Siyu, I didn’t expect you to break the seal in this life.” Ye Siyu smiled softly, “Brother-in-law once foresaw this era would be a golden age with immense celestial fate. If I wish to achieve harmony, this life is the best time.” “To be honest, I had my doubts.” She paused, looking at the woman descended from the Heavenly Court, and laughed, “But upon seeing you, I realized brother-in-law's prediction wasn’t wrong. Sister Qingxin, you’re even more beautiful than before.” Ye Qingxin gazed at Ye Siyu, tenderness in her eyes, “You’ve always known how to speak nicely.” In the past, Ye Siyu was bound by a formation and only broke free in this life. She had known Ye Qingxin before, feeling more like a sisterly bond rather than an actual sisterhood due to lack of blood relation; yet, the bond was deep due to her connection with the Forbidden Zone Queen. “Weren’t you supposed to have ascended to the Heavenly Court, Sister Qingxin? Why are you here now?” Ye Siyu’s curiosity gleamed, captivating with eyes that seemed etched with snowflake-like markings. Ye Qingxin smiled gently, “The Path to Immortality rarely reveals itself. My true form is still in the Heavenly Court, but I sent a wisp of spiritual consciousness down to check on the Ye family.” Hearing this, coldness flickered in her eyes as she murmured, “It’s fortunate I descended; otherwise, I wouldn’t know people dared to bully the Ye family. Your brother-in-law treats it lightly, but if I see him again... hmph.” Ye Siyu asked with a hint of surprise, “Is Sister referring to bullying the Ye family…” Ye Qingxin shook her head, “No need to worry, just a minor character. I'll personally see at the Ascension Convention tomorrow why he dares oppose the Ye family’s descendants.” “How is your sister now?” Ye Qingxin quickly switched the topic. She referred to that person… Ye Siyu smiled, “Sister is doing well. Since her enlightenment, she has grown increasingly vibrant.” Yet, she seemed somewhat distracted. After chatting with Ye Qingxin for a bit, Ye Siyu bade farewell, watching as Ye Qingxin departed. She then touched her alabaster chin with a fingertip, eyes gleaming, before flying on her sword toward the Glazed Hall. This isn’t good… this Ye family ancestor is known to be a formidable person, even troublesome for brother-in-law, and she’s evidently siding with the Ye family. After all, Lingxuan is her dear sister's beloved; an alert seems necessary... ... Meanwhile, elsewhere. Ye Yu ambled back to his dwelling, evidently in high spirits, almost floating as he walked. Internally thrilled, he silently praised the timely arrival of his ancestor… If he could seize this opportunity to show Lingxuan the true despicable side of Mu Zhian, he might mend his relationship with them. Reflecting now, he had indeed been overly foolish, neglecting those extraordinary two sisters, engrossed in cultivation alone, and only realizing his error after Mu Zhian’s intrusion. Thankfully, it wasn’t too late; with the ancestor's anticipated intervention tomorrow, everything could still be redeemed… Even Mu Zhian wouldn’t anticipate that the appearance of the Immortal Path would be his downfall, right? No coincidence, pure fortune. His exceptional fortune had summoned the ancestor’s spiritual consciousness, sealing Mu Zhian’s defeat. Subsequently, sister Lingxuan and sister Qian’er could also return to the Ye family and call him Ye Yu again... Ye Yu's fists clenched subtly, a cold smile playing on his lips. ... Within the De Xin Courtyard, lanterns flickered warmly. Red lanterns lined the paths, adding warmth to the winter night. “Brother Mu…” A soft, sweet voice—a gentle melody—came from the room as Ye Lingxuan wrapped her arms around Mu Zhian’s neck, a sweet, blissful smile adorning her face. A closer inspection revealed her grace and composure had deserted her, glistening eyes reflecting tender shyness and happiness while nestled in his embrace. Ye Qian had her delicate arms wrapped around Mu Zhian’s waist, leaning on his other side, her eyes brimming with sweetness. Though she thought watching her sister’s closeness with her brother Mu was enough before… now she found enjoying such moments herself wasn’t bad either. After all, she got to see first-hand how her sister was teased by brother Mu. “Why use ‘Brother Mu’ now? You ought to say, ‘Mu Lang, you were amazing earlier~’” Mu Zhian lazily yawned. “No way I could say such words...” Ye Lingxuan purred, rubbing her cheek against Mu Zhian’s arm, pleading softly, “Besides, if I call you Mu Lang now, wouldn’t sister Ruoxi be upset?” Lingxuan would probably be mortified when she finally calms down... Mu Zhian mused silently. Clearly, Ye Lingxuan had abandoned her usual composed elegance once the mood settled in; yet, when she cooled down, recalling her earlier coquettish behavior, she might just wish to hide in embarrassment. Mu Zhian slightly turned his head, looking at the youthful beauty behind him with a hint of mature charm on her face. He asked softly, “Qian’er, if you’re feeling tired, should you take a couple of restorative pills?” Ye Qian shook her head gently, her bright eyes fixated on Mu Zhian, blinking as she whispered, “It’s okay. I’ll recover before today’s contest starts.” She pressed her soft form against Mu Zhian’s back, murmuring with her face nestled against his shoulder, “And, I also want to savor this feeling a bit longer.” Ye Lingxuan propped herself up with one arm, looking over Mu Zhian with a teasing sparkle at her sister, “Is Qian’er saying she isn’t satisfied yet and wants to savor it more…?” Ye Qian flushed, glaring at her sister in a flustered manner, “What nonsense are you spouting, sister?” Ye Lingxuan, her eyes dancing with mischief, was about to retort when suddenly, a translucent blue lotus bloomed behind Ye Qian. In an unexpected move, Ye Qian slid over Mu Zhian, pinning the astonished Sacred Maiden of the Forbidden Zone beneath her. Mu Zhian observed the sisters’ playful scuffle with amusement until Ye Qian turned and declared, “Brother Mu, I’ve got sister pinned down for you—” “Qian’er, whose side are you on?!” Ye Lingxuan exclaimed, flustered, as the Chains of Time coiled from her form toward Ye Qian’s wrist. “Ah! Sister, you’re so mean, Brother Mu save me—!” The room once again filled with the sounds of playful banter between the sisters. ... About half an hour later, Mu Zhian lay comfortably, gazing at the high beams with satisfaction. The two beauties beside him seemed tuckered out, having fallen asleep by his sides without even meditating. Still, Mu Zhian kept calm, resisting any charm, and instead opened his personal interface. Just earlier, while late-night practicing with the sisters of the Ye family, he sensed a reaction on this interface, but as he was preoccupied with more pressing matters, he didn’t bother to check then. Opening the personal interface now, he quickly noticed a faint golden hue glowing in the The Chosen Female Lead role box. At the bottom of this role section appeared a new Luck Value interface. The displayed luck value was 85. This luck value seems similar to when I used the assessment tablet to gauge my luck, though the interface provides more detailed information... Mu Zhian pondered. But what is this golden glow on the role position? It wasn’t there before… The interface didn’t react when I returned with Sister Lingxuan earlier, only activating during our practice… Mu Zhian considered privately. Perhaps this is what Yuan Luo mentioned: getting close to Lingxuan and the others indirectly suppresses Ye Yu’s luck, and Ye Yu's luck transitions into mine? Yuan Luo had stated previously she leaned towards Mu Zhian as the new Heavenly Dao. While the Heavenly Dao governing the Nine Continents selected Ye Yu. Suppressing Ye Yu might as well weaken the Nine Continents’ Heavenly Dao. And when Ye Yu’s luck completely fades, it’ll be the moment when the Nine Continents Heavenly Dao is weakest. By then, Yuan Luo might have a way to replace the Old Heavenly Dao, becoming the Heavenly Dao of the Nine Continents. “This seems too easy for me since both Sister Lingxuan and Sister Qian are fond of me, and Ruoxi stands with me too... All that’s left is to defeat Ye Yu in the Ascension Convention, and it’ll further reduce his luck.” Feeling the sisters’ warmth on either side, Mu Zhian contemplated future strategies while keeping an eye on the interface. After nearly fifteen minutes, Mu Zhian suddenly sensed a shadow flicker outside the room. He tilted his head slightly, a faint suspicion crossing his eyes. De Xin Courtyard had protective formations. Without the owner’s approval, entry was impossible. Could it be someone familiar…? Mu Zhian contemplated for a moment, quietly stepping out of bed. Nearby, a purple and light blue dress were draped over the chair, while his black robe was casually tossed aside. Reaching for his robe, he dressed before tucking the blankets affectionately around the two sisters, concealing the enchanting view, and quietly left the room. ### Chapter 321: He Is My Dao Companion (7,000 Words) Night falls, and the sisters of the Ye family sleep soundly, nestled in blankets, while Mu Zhian stealthily leaves the room. The night winds howled, and Mu Zhian stood in the corridor, drawing spiritual energy from within himself to enshroud his body. With eyes shut softly, his spirit sense expanded. The entire structure of the dwelling imprinted onto his mind the next instant. Ordinarily, a cultivator at the Divine Refinement Stage couldn’t encompass an entire estate, but Mu Zhian's innate spiritual body allowed him to extend his spirit sense completely over the grounds. It didn’t take long for him to discern the woman hidden behind the third stone pillar from his side. “So it’s my aunt… sneaking here so late, does she intend to have a rendezvous with me?” Mu Zhian jested inwardly. **Chapter Start** **Previous Chapter** **354/718** **Next Chapter** **End of Chapter** **Directory** **Previous: Nobody Understands Being a Villain Better Than Me** **Next: Anime Compilation: Becoming a Hero from Scratch** **Recommended Reading!** **Martial Arts Novel: Infinite Blood Points, Invincible Across the Martial World** **I, the Quasi-Immortal Emperor, Slept for Thousands of Years and Joined a Chat Group** **One Piece: Summon the Thunder God, Kai Do Gasped in Surprise** **The Three-Body Problem: I'm a Bug, The Insect Swarm’s Bug!** **Anime Compilation: The Infinite Conquest** **Naruto: I'm Naruto, and Today I Will Outplay All Present** **Martial Arts: The Way of the World Rewards Diligence, Being Hunted by Xu Wei Xiong** **Pokémon: Starting from Pallet Town** **Naruto: Reviving Uchiha, Beginning with Taking Concubines** **Zombie: Taking Concubines to become the Dao Ancestor, Yue Qiluo Begs for Mercy** **Copyright © 2022 Fan Fiction All Rights Reserved.**
