Chapter 468: Jade Empress-Ruoxi Alliance
Silence enveloped the two beneath the ancient tree.
Mu Zhian felt the soft touch gently pressing against his arm, the faint fragrance emanating from the woman, and her soft voice echoing in his ear.
He swallowed slightly.
It was impossible to say he wasn’t moved.
Shang Yanfei just stared at him, a playful smile in her eyes, as if she wasn’t the Sect Master who had everything calculated, but an older sister who liked to tease younger boys.
However, he remained motionless.
After an unknown amount of time in silence, Mu Zhian sighed softly.
Then, he said quite calmly, “This disciple doesn’t have those kinds of thoughts towards Sect Master right now.”
“I can swear to the Great Dao!” Mu Zhian swore solemnly.
Rumble…
A rumble came from the horizon. The Great Dao truly responded to Mu Zhian’s oath, but after a long while, no Heavenly Tribulation descended upon him.
This meant Mu Zhian wasn’t lying.
However, as his voice fell, Shang Yanfei stared at him silently.
“You… don’t have improper thoughts towards me?”
Her expression was as calm as usual, but her words seemed to carry some previously unseen emotion.
Mu Zhian hesitated slightly, then sighed softly, “Although saying this might be disrespectful to Sect Master, I think no one would have no thoughts after seeing Sect Master… I’m naturally no exception.”
“But right now, compared to that, I want you to fulfill your promise from just now.”
Shang Yanfei looked at Mu Zhian with a half-smile, seemingly guessing something.
“Go ahead,” she said calmly.
“I just want Sect Master to answer one question for me.”
Mu Zhian looked at the peerlessly beautiful woman with a complicated expression: “What is your relationship with Mu Wanwan?”
A hint of surprise flashed through Shang Yanfei’s eyes for the first time. Then, her expression instantly returned to normal, and she said softly, “How did you know?”
“I’ve been wondering why my memories with Wanwan are so blurry. If I hadn’t seen her at Immortal Emperor Mountain today, I might not even have remembered her.”
“I’m ‘subconsciously’ ignoring her.”
Mu Zhian silently gazed at Shang Yanfei: “But even after seeing her today, I still can’t remember what happened between us. Those memories are all very blurry.”
“A few years ago, when I was with her, I was clearly very happy. I still have some impressions of other things I experienced at that time… Only the things related to Mu Wanwan are blurry.”
“Just based on this, you think it’s related to me?” Shang Yanfei asked.
“The Sabbath descended, the Heavenly Dao chose a Divine Envoy. The slightest carelessness could cause chaos in the Nine Provinces, but you didn’t react at all… Even after Yao Meng came looking for you, you still didn’t react. Instead, you had me advance to Nascent Soul Realm to temporarily shield the heavenly rules, thus restricting the alien gods.”
“But this can’t completely deter them. Sooner or later, some fool will try to take a risk.”
Mu Zhian paused, then continued, “The Sect Master I know isn’t someone who would sit still and wait for death.”
There was actually another important point… Sect Master Sister’s cup size was the same as Mu Wanwan’s, and both had a similar mist that ‘shielded destiny’ surrounding them. When Mu Zhian looked at Shang Yanfei, he couldn’t remember her appearance, and when he looked at Mu Wanwan, he couldn’t remember the things they experienced together.
That’s why Mu Zhian became suspicious.
Of course, he didn’t dare to say this out loud.
After all, wouldn’t saying this be like him staring at Sect Master Sister’s chest every day?
“What exactly is your relationship with Wanwan?” Mu Zhian asked again.
Shang Yanfei’s gaze held complex emotions, seemingly a mix of flavors.
After a moment of silence, she said faintly, “Since you’ve already guessed it, why ask again?”
“You guessed correctly. I am Mu Wanwan.”
Mu Zhian’s expression turned blank.
Holy crap?!
At this moment, countless question marks filled Mu Zhian’s mind, his entire being in a state of astonishment.
Although he had already vaguely guessed it in his heart, hearing Shang Yanfei admit it herself still felt absurd.
He had always thought he was the ‘fishpond master’ raising fish, but who would have thought that when he was young, he was already being raised as a fish…
And the person raising him was the Sect Master of the Two Polarities Sect!
So I was right all along, Sect Master Sister is a tsundere. On the surface, she looks cool and aloof, an extremely mysterious older sister, but actually, just like Senior Sister Lan, both master and disciple are ‘tsunderes’…
She actually had her clone ‘happen’ to pass through Tianxuan City, then had a little story with him…
Thinking of this, Mu Zhian quickly recalled another terrifying thing.
Was the paper crane Senior Sister Lan threw from Two Polarities Peak really a coincidence, passing through Tianxuan City and being ‘intercepted’ by him?
Also, he didn’t know he was exchanging letters with both master and disciple at the same time back then. Did the Sect Master really not know?
Or… did she actually know everything?
No one would have thought that the ‘young lady’ who happened to pass through Tianxuan City back then was Shang Yanfei!
Even if Lan Mulian were here and heard this, she would probably be so shocked that she would be stunned.
Although Mu Zhian had long known that Shang Yanfei was orchestrating everything from behind the scenes, he couldn’t determine what the Sect Master wanted from him back then, so he always held a sense of awe towards her.
But now that she had admitted it… the nature of things was completely different.
At this moment, Mu Zhian suddenly understood, but then quickly recalled something and hesitated, “I was still young back then, why didn’t Sect Master Sister wait until I grew up before coming to Tianxuan City as Mu Wanwan?”
Shang Yanfei responded with silence.
Then, she glanced at Mu Zhian and said faintly, “You’ve asked your question, you should go back now.”
Looking at the woman’s calm demeanor, if she hadn’t admitted it herself, Mu Zhian really wouldn’t have been able to completely believe that Mu Wanwan was Shang Yanfei.
“The Sabbath won’t have much impact on the Nine Provinces, you don’t need to worry. As for the chaotic aura, your current Innate Celestial Furnace can’t refine it yet. My Luck does have some problems, but it’s not affecting me yet.”
The tall and slender beauty stood gracefully, her posture always calm and composed. She stood with her hands behind her back, a small section of smooth and delicate leg faintly visible beneath her magnificent raven-black dress. Her slightly lowered eyelids and calm gaze, fixed on the ancient tree, made her appear even more breathtakingly beautiful.
After she finished speaking, seeing no response from behind, she was about to turn around.
Just then, Mu Zhian suddenly stepped forward, wrapping his arms around Shang Yanfei’s slender waist, pressing his chest against her smooth, snow-white back.
The young man’s hot breath brushed against her snow-white neck. He held Shang Yanfei in his embrace, feeling the softness of the Sect Master Sister’s delicate body.
The slightly loose dress wrinkled slightly with Mu Zhian’s movements. He could clearly feel the woman in his arms tremble slightly.
However, she didn’t make a sound.
…
The rumbling thunder gradually subsided…
A black and white interwoven palace dress fluttered in the wind. Gong Lianyue said softly in her heart, “I never thought Transcendence would be achieved in this way one day.”
Cultivators pursued longevity, which was going against the heavens. After the Soul Transformation Realm, the slightest carelessness during each lightning tribulation could lead to death, turning into nourishment for the world, let alone the Heavenly Tribulations of Dao Integration and Transcendence.
Ultimately, there was no path to Transcendence in the Nine Provinces.
Bai Ruoxi’s soft and weak voice sounded: “The Heavenly Court isn’t within the world. From the past until now, there have only been nine seats in the Heavenly Court. Mu Lang being willing to help Palace Master must mean he trusts you very much.”
Gong Lianyue’s voice lowered unconsciously: “The person he likes is you. The Heavenly Court seat was also given to you, not me.”
“We are one, why distinguish between each other… When I was with Mu Lang in the past, everything my body felt, even my joys and sorrows, you could also experience them, right?” Bai Ruoxi said softly.
Strictly speaking, the two were the same soul. No matter who was the dominant personality, the other could feel everything the main body felt.
An intoxicating blush couldn’t help but appear on Gong Lianyue’s delicate and proud face. Then, she quickly said, “Alright, let’s deal with the matters here first before talking about these things.”
She waved her hand, dispelling the countless swords emitting brilliant golden light in mid-air. Those swords flew in all directions, returning to their owners.
At this moment, Gong Lianyue stood in mid-air, her plum blossom-patterned palace dress fluttering in the wind. Her jade-white feet were covered in silk stockings, and she wore delicate embroidered shoes. A jade belt cinched her waist, her dress unable to fully conceal her full and perky bosom, swaying gently in the cold wind, her skin snow-white, her strength unfathomable.
If one looked closely, they would notice a silver-white pattern faintly appearing between her cleavage, although difficult to see clearly, it added a touch of mystery.
“No matter what you think, I owe you a favor. If there’s anything you need in the future, I will do my best to help.”
The next moment, Gong Lianyue’s cold and sexy voice echoed before the Sword Palace. She turned her head, looking at the Jade Empress, who had protected her this time.
“I’ve said it before, you helped me in the past, so naturally I will protect you this time.”
Yao Meng said with a faint smile, “If you insist on repaying me, just agree to one condition.”
Gong Lianyue, or rather Bai Ruoxi, raised her delicate brows slightly: “What condition?”
Yao Meng smiled, gazing at the Sword Immortal whose dress couldn’t fully conceal her full bosom, her red lips parting slightly, and said something.
…
Fifteen minutes later.
“Sect Master Sister, then I’ll be going.”
Mu Zhian withdrew his hand, feeling refreshed and invigorated, a sense of accomplishment he had never experienced before.
After all, he had always held a sense of awe towards this Sect Master Sister.
Although he had thoughts of craving her body, towards this woman who had everything planned out, his awe was still greater.
However, today, he faced his heart demon!
Although he didn’t go too far, even just hugging and cuddling was a huge step!
Just as he turned to leave, he caught sight of a book placed on the stone table beside the ancient tree.
Curiosity piqued, Mu Zhian walked over and glanced at the title of the book.
“Domineering Sect Master Falls in Love with Me…”
“…”
After a moment of silence, he looked at Shang Yanfei with surprise.
Shang Yanfei’s expression remained calm, and she said faintly, “I happened to see it, reading it to pass the time.”
“Has Sect Master Sister finished reading it? Can I borrow it?” Mu Zhian asked tentatively.
Shang Yanfei casually glanced at him and hummed softly in agreement.
Mu Zhian placed the book into his storage ring, then pondered for a moment and asked tentatively, “Is Sect Master also interested in this kind of book?”
Shang Yanfei finally turned to look at him, her red lips curving slightly upwards, and said nonchalantly, “After the Ascension Tournament ended earlier, I gave Mulian a teleportation talisman. Burning that talisman can teleport the person it’s locked onto to a certain basement in this peak.”
She gazed at Mu Zhian, her pale golden eyes filled with charm.
“Are you interested in staying in the basement for a few days?”
Her voice remained calm and elegant, as if the person Mu Zhian had just held in his arms wasn’t her.
Mu Zhian cupped his hands: “This disciple will take his leave!”
It was better to stop while he was ahead, to leave early, and not test Sect Master Sister’s bottom line, repeatedly pushing his luck before her. If one day he was really thrown into the little black room, who could he cry to…?
After Mu Zhian left the back mountain, Shang Yanfei casually retracted her gaze. She slightly raised her head, gazing at the ancient tree ahead. After a long while, she slowly exhaled.
She gently touched her rosy lips with a fingertip, then slightly tilted her head and chuckled softly.
So I still couldn’t resist.
…
“It’s not my fault for having weak willpower, it’s mainly because she’s too good at flirting. Otherwise, with my willpower, refusing beauty isn’t difficult…”
Mu Zhian left the back mountain, the soft touch of the Sect Master’s delicate body still lingering on his palm, making him reminisce and indulge in that sensation even now.
He left the back mountain contentedly, intending to find Miss Spirit Dragon, who was enjoying roasted chicken in the courtyard. However, as he passed by a hall, vines suddenly wrapped around his feet.
Mu Zhian looked down, stunned for a moment, and subconsciously said, “World-Purifying Seeds?”
Whoosh!
The next moment, the vines instantly enveloped him, binding him tightly, then rapidly dragged him towards a small black room deep within the hall.
When his vision finally returned, what appeared before Mu Zhian was a quiet little black room.
Candles flickered on both sides of the little black room. The World-Purifying Seeds beneath his feet emitted a pale white light, making the usually gloomy room appear exceptionally bright and transparent.
No one could be seen in the room.
Mu Zhian was very calm: “Yao Meng, if you don’t come out, I’m leaving.”
There was no response. Seeing this, Mu Zhian turned to leave.
“Even if you want to leave, you won’t be able to get out of this door,” a lazy voice came from behind.
Yao Meng must have realized it was Lin Ling’s doing, so she came to Two Polarities Peak… Mu Zhian wasn’t surprised. The moment he turned around, he was captivated by the beauty of the fairy sitting at the table.
She wore a slightly tight dress, her messy hair gently framing her classic and delicate face, her nose high and straight, a pair of beautiful snow-white feet bare, giving off an ethereal and holy feeling at first glance.
But more important than her attire were the stockings in her hand… They were fishnet stockings!
Holy crap, where did she get those? I remember there’s no such thing in Sect Master Sister’s basement…
Yao Meng sat with her long, slender legs crossed, her fair and dazzling skin appearing like jade-fat under the candlelight, full of elasticity.
Her devastatingly beautiful face was lightly made up, her red lips more alluring than usual, carrying a touch of worldly charm she didn’t have before, her green eyes filled with a smile.
“I was protecting your Dao Companion during her tribulation at the Sword Palace, and you, you ran off to the Two Polarities Sect with the Spirit Dragon. If I hadn’t sensed your location through the Green Lotus Ring, it would probably have taken me another day or two to find you,” Yao Meng rolled her eyes and said faintly.
Mu Zhian coughed lightly and explained, “She wasn’t feeling well, so we had to return to the sect…”
Yao Meng glanced at the young man: “Really? But your Lin Ling looked quite leisurely enjoying afternoon tea in the courtyard just now.”
So you threw me into the little black room while Lin Ling was still eating snacks…? Mu Zhian felt the silent atmosphere in the basement, the pressure immense.
But for some reason, being in this kind of place also gave him an inexplicable sense of excitement.
“Protecting your Dao Companion during her tribulation is very tiring. Don’t you plan to do something for Sister in place of your Dao Companion… like, massaging my feet or something?”
Her eyes were playful, staring intently at Mu Zhian.
“No one interfered with Ruoxi’s tribulation, right?” Mu Zhian asked.
“Mmm~ Naturally, no one would stop her at this juncture… Your massage technique has improved quite a bit.”
Feeling one of her feet gently held by a warm hand, as if even the faint fragrance was enveloped by his palm, a slight tremble appeared in the fairy’s usually elegant and holy voice.
Firstly, I’m really not a foot fetishist, I’m just helping out for Ruoxi’s sake. Secondly, I really have nothing to do with foot fetishism, I just happen to like Sister Jade Empress’s feet… Mu Zhian gently massaged the fairy’s small, snow-white feet, defending himself inwardly.
“Right, there’s something I might need your help with later.”
Mu Zhian suddenly recalled something and looked up at the fairy sitting at the table, a faint blush on her face.
“Go ahead,” her voice seemed to carry a hint of allure, her eyes looking down at the young man, sparkling with excitement and pleasure.
“You should know about the conflict I had with a cultivator from outside in the Lan Clan Ancestral Land earlier, right?” Mu Zhian asked while massaging the Jade Empress’s delicate jade feet.
Seeing her nod silently, Mu Zhian continued, “That cultivator seems to have a great power backing him, and there was also a very suspicious woman with him at the time… I’m quite concerned about her appearance.”
“A woman?” Yao Meng placed her other jade foot on Mu Zhian’s shoulder and said casually, “Do you know this suspicious woman you speak of?”
“I know her, but I’m not sure if it was her at the time.”
Mu Zhian paused: “When I went to the Abyss before, Ye Yu saved a Dao Integration Realm expert’s spiritual sense in the Abyss palace. That spiritual sense was the Fourth Pillar God of the Southern Wilderness.”
Yao Meng toyed with a strand of hair with her slender fingers and looked up lazily: “You mean, the woman with the young man who clashed with you at the time was very likely the Space God, Xue Yi?”
Mu Zhian nodded slightly.
“Xue Yi has a special relationship with the Southern Wilderness Holy Maiden. And since it’s just a wisp of spiritual sense, Xue Yi will definitely find a way to rebuild her divine body,” Yao Meng said softly.
Mu Zhian nodded: “So I want to go to the Southern Wilderness.”
Besides, he still had an unfulfilled agreement with Regina. This time, he could fulfill that agreement as well.
“Alright, I’ll accompany you there then.”
A ticklish sensation suddenly came from the sole of her foot. Yao Meng’s toes curled slightly as if shyly. She glanced at the young man with burning eyes and said in a lazy voice, “But before that, help me put on these stockings~”
Mu Zhian was stunned for a moment, then, noticing the Jade Empress’s smiling eyes, he couldn’t help but exhale slowly.
That’s why he said, older sisters were truly… irresistible.
Mu Zhian suppressed the rising desire in his heart and took the stockings Yao Meng handed him.
“Wait a moment, I want to give you another surprise before that.”
Just as Mu Zhian was about to step forward, Yao Meng raised her fingertip, gently touching Mu Zhian’s forehead.
Then, Mu Zhian felt a familiar aura coming from the distance. He turned his head and quickly lingered on the ample bosom of the beauty in the palace dress.
“Ruoxi?”
Why is she here too…?
Recognizing the newcomer, Mu Zhian was stunned for a moment, subconsciously looking at Yao Meng, only to see Sister Jade Empress had already stepped forward, holding Bai Ruoxi’s hand, then smilingly coming to Mu Zhian’s side.
She held Bai Ruoxi’s slender hand, her face flushed with emotion, her breath like orchids:
“Do you like this surprise?”
