So, They Were the Protagonists All Along

Chapter 79 XXX, Three Sections! 4.5K (1/2)

The next morning.

Lan Feiying brought one of Tianxuan City's specialty snacks to Yangfeng Inn and knocked on the guest room door.

"Sister, you don't seem to be in a good mood?" Lan Feiying looked doubtfully at this curvy sister and put down the snack in her hand.

Although Lan Mulian's face was veiled and she hadn't said a word at this time, she was indeed a sister. Lan Feiying seemed to have telepathy and immediately noticed something strange about her sister.

"Don't worry about it, it's just a trivial matter." Lan Mulian said calmly.

Lan Feiying couldn't help but glance at her sister twice, but she didn't think much about it. Her eyes quickly fell on the thin booklet on the table. Looking at the more than ten names circled on it, she couldn't help but say:

"It seems that sister has decided on the number of disciples who will go to the sect for the assessment this time?"

Lan Mulian nodded slightly, closed the book, turned to look out the window, and said softly: "The number of people is basically determined, but the talent level of these people needs to be tested again in the end."

She turned to look at the enchanting woman behind her and said, "You also need to take a test."

Mufu!

Mu Zhian sat in the yard, looking at the pool of snow lotus, and yawned sleepily.

He didn't sleep well last night as usual.

It's not that he wanted to stay up late, it was just for the sake of Bai Ruoxi's state that he had no choice but to do a little double cultivation.

As for the process, it is not worth mentioning. Noble people disdain to understand it, and everyone who understands understands it, so I won’t go into details here.

"I hope Ye Yu won't cause trouble, I still want to get more out of him." Mu Zhi'an muttered quietly to himself.

He thought for a while, picked three more snow lotuses, and put each of them into the remaining three portions of Glazed Earth.

Although this snow lotus cannot be used now, there is no telling... will it be used in the future?

"Ha." Suddenly there was a cold ridicule from beside him. Mu Zhian raised his head and looked up. Wei Mengrou in a yellow skirt was standing next to him, with condescending disdain in her eyes.

Mu Zhian handed one of the snow lotus flowers to Wei Mengrou and said with a smile, "Sister Mengrou, this is for you."

Wei Mengrou said calmly: "No."

After saying that, he glanced at Mu Zhian again and continued: "It's okay if you only give it to me. If you give it to three people, this snow lotus has lost its original value."

Mu Zhian shook his head and said, "This snow lotus is different from the previous ones."

Wei Mengrou said "ha": "It no longer represents loyalty to love?"

"This trip to the Liangyi Sect, with Sister Mengrou's appearance, will definitely attract the pursuit of many people. When the time comes to take out this snow lotus, they will know that Sister Mengrou is already famous and has an owner." Mu Zhian said .

"Not interested." Wei Mengrou refused again.

"Take it, even if you keep it as a souvenir, it's not bad, isn't it?" Mu Zhian stretched out his hand, gently took the maid's hand, and then placed the snow lotus in her hand.

"If Xuelian's matter is exposed, I will never help you." Wei Mengrou finally accepted Xuelian, but she did not forget to warn her.

She added: "Have you not learned your lesson from what happened at the last auction house?"

Mu Zhian shook his head and smiled: "What happened last time was purely an accident. If Ye Yu, that stupid young man, didn't yell that last thing to mock me, there would be no problem with my plan."

What's more, what happened to Xuelian was different from the last encounter.

Girls are reserved creatures. If someone they like or a good-looking person of the opposite sex gives them a flower, they will be happy, but they will not show off to others with a flower in their arms.

Oh, it's possible if it's someone who loves vanity.

But neither Bai Ruoxi nor Lan Mulian is the kind of girl who loves vanity.

They will only keep this snow lotus, and every time they see the snow lotus, they will miss it.

Ye Lingxuan was still a little wary of him, and now she was as wary of him as she was of a thief, fearing that one day Mu Zhian would kidnap Ye Qian away.

Ye Lingxuan, who has an elegant nature, also won't go out of her way to show off this matter to others.

At most, he could just talk to his sister Ye Qian.

In this era, there is no such thing as a circle of friends, so there is no way to take a photo to express one's feelings.

If this can be detected, it can only be said that he is very unlucky.

Speaking of which, I have to find an opportunity to give Ye Qianduo a gift... Although the girl doesn't say anything on the surface, she will definitely be unhappy in her heart.

Mu Zhian couldn't help but think.

A waiter walked up in the distance and secretly observed a few times. After confirming that there was nothing wrong with the atmosphere, he approached Mu Zhian and whispered:

"Young Master, news just came from the Yangfeng Inn. We will gather in front of the competition stage at the end of today. It seems that the sect assessor intends to test the talents of the disciples participating in the assessment."

Mu Zhian muttered: "I understand, go and have someone prepare the carriage, and I'll be there in a moment."

It seems that Senior Sister Lan is planning to give the disciples a "base test" to confirm how much these disciples weigh.

Even if you look at the entire Xianxia world, the Liangyi Sect in Dongzhou is the top force. Moreover, unlike most other forces, this sect is completely neutral and will not interfere in any competition between forces, even if it is The emperor of this dynasty could not order the Liangyi Sect to do anything.

This sect's status in Dongzhou is extremely sacred.

Because of this, almost every sect assessment of Liangyi Sect would attract countless disciples, including the descendants of the powerful and the nobility, princes and princesses, and even geniuses from various immortal cultivation families.

The immortal cultivation families in Tianxuan City were naturally one of them.

After Lan Mulian confirmed the number of people participating in the sect assessment, he decided to test the talent at the competition arena.

Soon after the news came out, the selected young cultivators went there one after another.

For a while, a lot of people gathered in front of the competition arena.

Many of them came to join in the fun after hearing the news, intending to see how these Tianxuan City geniuses performed.

After all, those who were selected by Lan Mulian were naturally the top geniuses in Tianxuan City.

At this moment, Huang Manting was sitting lazily on the chair, looking up at the young cultivators on the competition arena who were full of desire to perform, shaking her head and chuckling secretly.

Those who were selected by Lan Mulian at least showed that they were all the best among the young cultivators in Tianxuan City.

The reason why they want to compete on the arena before the talent test begins is nothing more than to show it to Lan Murian.

However... Senior Sister Lan hasn't come yet, why are they so anxious?

Huang Manting just thought of this, and suddenly seemed to have a sense of something. She turned her head and looked behind her. A carriage stopped near the arena, and then two beautiful girls jumped off the carriage.

"Sister Lingxuan, and Sister Qian'er, you are really early." Huang Manting smiled and raised her hand and waved gently.

In fact, in addition to Mu Zhian, Ye Lingxuan and Ye Qian are also one of her prey. Huang Manting is tired of playing with the maids and even followers at home. Now she is more focused on the geniuses of other families.

And the servant she wants to conquer the most is the eldest master of the Mu family.

Ye Lingxuan smiled lightly and also greeted: "Sister Huang."

Huang Manting had a soft smile on her face and her mouth opened slightly, but she hadn't continued to speak. At this time, Ye Yu, who was not far away, saw the two sisters, his eyes lit up, and walked towards them.

window._taboola = window._taboola || ; _taboola.push({ mode: 'thumbs-feed-01', container: 'taboola-below-article-feed', placement: 'Below Article Feed', target_type: 'mix' });

He took the initiative to greet them: "Lingxuan, Qian'er, what a coincidence, I was just planning to find you to come together at the Ye Mansion, but I didn't expect you to come out one step earlier."

Ye Qian shrank back and ignored her cousin.

Ever since she learned that Ye Yu secretly followed them that day, Ye Qian completely lost her favor for this cousin.

Even though he was a genius of the Ye family, she was also very disgusted with this kind of tracking behavior.

Ye Lingxuan calmly pulled Ye Qian to her side and smiled, "After all, we are going to test the talents of the disciples who will take the exam today, so it's better to come here early."

There was already a little more alienation in that smile.

Ye Yu didn't notice it, but just pointed to a seat not far away and said, "It's hot today, why don't we go there to cool off? I don't think Senior Sister will come so soon."

"No, we want to chat with Sister Manting." Ye Lingxuan refused modestly, and then nodded politely to Ye Yu, then took Ye Qian's hand and walked to Huang Manting and sat down.

They were indeed bewitched by Mu Zhian... Ye Yu looked at this scene, his face slightly ugly.

But after saying this, and because he and Huang Manting were not very familiar with each other, Ye Yu finally did not approach the three people, but chose a seat not far behind him.

"Is there anyone sitting next to you?"

At this time, a clear voice suddenly came abruptly.

Ye Yu subconsciously raised his head, but saw Mu Zhian standing beside Ye Qian with a gentle smile on his face.

"Mu Zhian..."

Ye Yu stared at Mu Zhian, and then his eyes subconsciously fell on Ye Qian.

Her face was slightly flushed. When Mu Zhian asked, she shook her head gently and said shyly: "There is no one next to me, Brother Mu, please sit if you want."

Mu Zhian sat beside Ye Qian generously and said with a smile: "Sister Qian'er and Sister Lingxuan, good afternoon."

Huang Manting curled her lips and said: "Master Mu is so cruel, didn't he say hello to me?"

Although she said so, there was no anger on her face.

She said this, at best, it was a joke.

Why does he know everyone...Ye Yu stared at Mu Zhian and his back, who was chatting and laughing with the three women at this time.

Huang Manting is the daughter of the president of the Dawn Chamber of Commerce. Logically, she has a very bad relationship with the Bai family. Mu Zhian has been so close to Bai Ruoxi recently... Why is he still socializing with Huang Manting? !

When Ye Yu thought of this, he subconsciously grabbed the fabric of his black robe and suppressed his anger.

No matter how active Mu Zhian is now, at best he is just trying to attract attention. When Senior Sister Lan arrives at the competition arena and tests the talents of the cultivators, they will know who is the "protagonist" of this sect assessment.

"He seems to be staring at you... His eyes are really scary." Huang Manting noticed the eyes behind her staring at this place, and couldn't help but chuckled softly.

Mu Zhian didn't even turn his head, but took advantage of Ye Lingxuan's inattention and gently touched the back of Ye Qian's hand, causing the girl's cheeks to heat up.

Although it would be fun to be shy for a girl as elegant and noble as Ye Lingxuan, it's actually quite good to bully a pure and sweet girl like Ye Qian... Mu Zhian looked at Ye Qian's pretty face with a shy blush, and unnoticeably retracted the palm that had just held Ye Qian, and smiled:

"Ye Yu and I do have some grudges, but you don't have to pay attention to it. After all, this is a private grudge and shouldn't affect you."

In fact, Mu Zhian could roughly guess what Ye Yu was thinking.

It's easy to imagine that Ye Yu was forbearing. He thought he was gifted. When Lan Murian arrived, he thought that as long as he showed his talent, he would be able to make a splash, shock everyone, and attract their attention and cheers.

But little do they know that being able to communicate with others casually and even make people happy is also a talent.

What's more... could the talent of a person who is envied by heaven be worse than others?

Mu Zhian shook his head and chuckled secretly.

"By the way, why don't you see Miss Bai?" Huang Manting suddenly asked.

The eyes of the Ye sisters all looked at Mu Zhian silently.

This Huang Manting is deliberately making trouble... Mu Zhian's expression did not change, and he replied calmly: "She was just meditating and practicing, and she should be on her way now."

"By the way, after the talent test, if you don't mind, I will invite you to Chaohai Inn for a cup of tea and a snack, how about it?" Mu Zhian quietly changed the subject.

Ye Qian's originally frowned brows relaxed a little, and Ye Lingxuan's face did not show any changes, but from her eyes, it can be roughly judged that her mood has improved a little.

The sisters of the Ye family all nodded reservedly, and Huang Manting also showed a charming smile and said, "Okay~"

Mu Zhian smiled and said, "Then it's decided."

The sisters of the Ye family are very simple girls. If Ye Yu had a higher emotional intelligence and was willing to spend some time, at least one of these two girls could be seduced.

But now, Ye Yu can only watch this scene from behind and be furious.

What on earth is "Heavenly Dao" thinking? Why would it choose such a fool as the "chosen son of heaven"...Mu Zhian shook his head secretly.

At this time, he suddenly felt a shadow quietly shrouded behind him, and a chill quietly came from behind.

Mu Zhian subconsciously turned his head to look, and Lan Murian was standing behind him without knowing when.

She was wearing a moon-white long skirt, cold and luxurious. Although she was wearing a tulle, her figure and cold temperament alone gave people infinite beautiful reverie.

"Senior sister." Ye Qian shouted crisply.

Lan Murian's voice was cold and crisp, with great texture: "What were you talking about just now?"

"Brother Mu invited us to have snacks at Chaohai Inn later." Ye Qian said.

Ye Lingxuan suddenly said: "If you don't mind, let's go together then?"

Lan Murian turned her head to look at Mu Zhian, smiled slightly, and said: "It depends on what Mr. Mu wants."

Why does it feel that the look in the eyes of the senior sister just now is not as gentle as when she saw me yesterday... Mu Zhian smiled and nodded: "If the senior sister is willing to accompany us, I naturally don't mind."

Mu Zhian paused, and then said: "But senior sister, aren't you busy? If you just want to have snacks, I can buy some for you later..."

If there are too many people at the party, he is worried that he can't control the situation.

However, Lan Murian looked at him meaningfully and said softly: "Not busy."

Why do I have a bad feeling... Mu Zhian looked at the beautiful back of Lan Murian floating gently in front of the high platform, and felt an inexplicable strange feeling in his heart.

After the crowd in the audience noticed Lan Mulian, they all fell silent, and countless eyes stared at this tall senior sister.

Lan Mulian raised her hand slightly and took out a stone tablet that was only the size of a palm.

She raised her hand and made a gesture, and a golden light flashed across the sky and fell into the dark stone tablet.

At the same time, the stone tablet began to gradually enlarge, until finally, a two-meter-high dark stone tablet stood on the high platform, reflecting people's vision.

"When the palm touches this stone tablet, this person's luck and even talent will be shown on the stone tablet."

Lan Mulian glanced at the more than ten people present, noticed the fiery eyes in their eyes, and smiled lightly: "Is there anyone who wants to come up and try first?"

Under the stage, Ye Yu quietly clenched his fists, with excitement in his eyes.

His chance to turn over has finally come!
