It Turns Out, They Are the Protagonists Chapter 568: Mu Zhian’s Designated Fiancée from the Forbidde

Shortly after arriving at the Forbidden Land of Life, Mu Zhian saw the girl who had been waiting for him under the Tree of Life.

Today, she wore a rather complex black dress that enveloped her petite fra, giving her a less childlike and more mysterious aura.

Mu Zhi’s voice was crisp and clear, “Big Brother, you finally ca. I thought you weren’t coming to play with .”

If I could, I really wouldn’t want to co to such a dangerous place… Mu Zhian smiled, “You were overthinking it. I said I would co see you, so I naturally would. I just hope I’m not disturbing you.”

Mu Zhi took a step forward. One mont she seed far away, and the next, she was standing right before Mu Zhian. She raised her cute little face, her clear and bright eyes curiously studying his expression, then said with a smile, “You say that, but you’re actually scared, aren’t you?”

“You’re afraid that after you enter the Forbidden Land of Life, I’ll use the power of rules to keep you here forever, right?”

For Mu Zhi, this wasn’t a difficult guess.

From their conversation earlier, Mu Zhi already knew that Mu Zhian was eager to find out his parents’ identities… And even after she told him the truth, even revealing that Mu Wange had returned to the Forbidden Land of Life, Mu Zhian still hesitated.

The answer was obvious.

Mu Zhian was worried about whether he could leave after entering the Forbidden Land of Life.

This lolita queen looks innocent, but as expected of an ‘old monster’, she’s already completely seen through my thoughts… Mu Zhian sighed inwardly, about to speak.

“Actually, you don’t need to explain. After all, if you weren’t afraid of , why would you ask the Jade Empress to protect you?”

Mu Zhi smiled and looked up at Mu Zhian, “Right, Jade Empress?”

As her innocent voice fell, a green figure quietly materialized beside Mu Zhian.

“There’s an unspoken rule between the Forbidden Lands and the Nine Provinces: we don’t interfere with each other’s affairs. Cultivators are not allowed to step foot into the Forbidden Lands. I believe the Jade Empress rembers this, right?”

Mu Zhi paused slightly, then continued, “Oh right, I almost forgot, the Forbidden Land of Life was established long before the Jade Pool Holy Land. In that case, it’s not surprising that the Jade Empress is unaware of this rule.”

The underlying aning of her words was: I’m your senior, so show so respect.

Mu Zhian thought that Yao ng, with her assertive personality, would retort, but hearing this, a gentle smile appeared on her lips instead.

“Senior is right, I wasn’t aware of this unspoken rule between the Forbidden Lands and the Nine Provinces. My apologies.”

But before Mu Zhi could even react, Yao ng took Mu Zhian’s arm and said with a smile, “Since the Forbidden Lands forbid cultivators from entering, then this Seat and my ‘husband’ won’t disturb your cultivation, Senior.”

Yao ng deliberately emphasized the word “Senior”. Then, without further ado, she turned to leave with Mu Zhian.

Just then, a chain shot out from the void, instantly binding Yao ng’s wrist, stopping her.

“I have no objections to the Jade Empress leaving… but Big Brother can’t go with you.”

Mu Zhi raised her small hand behind the two. The power of the ‘forbidden rules’, like countless chains, restricted Yao ng’s movents.

Yao ng looked at Mu Zhi with amusent, a faint smile playing on her lips, “Is this the Forbidden Land of Life’s hospitality?”

“The only guest I’m entertaining is Big Brother. As for the Jade Empress… to , you’re just an uninvited guest,” Mu Zhi said bluntly, her tone crisp and sweet, but her eyes cold.

To her, the Jade Empress was simply an obstacle preventing her from being alone with Mu Zhian.

If she could remove this obstacle before entering the depths of the Forbidden Land of Life, it was best to do so as soon as possible.

“Yao ng brought to the Forbidden Land of Life. If you want her to leave, then I can only leave with her,” Mu Zhian said slowly, seeing the rising tension.

Hearing this, Mu Zhi was visibly stunned. “For an outsider, you’re going to turn against ?”

Although she knew about the relationship between Yao ng and Mu Zhian, she still underestimated the woman’s importance in his heart… Compared to the ‘older sister’ relationship based solely on Mu Zhi’s words, without any actual mories, Mu Zhian still chose Fairy Yao ng, with whom he had been intimate in this life.

Seeing Mu Zhian’s unwavering stance, Mu Zhi pursed her rosy lips, glanced at the mature and beautiful fairy with displeasure, and said faintly, “Since Big Brother insists, then you can both co with .”

Her light red eyes held a hint of displeasure, her expression also clearly unhappy.

“You don’t have to offend a Forbidden Zone Lord for my sake,” Yao ng transmitted her voice, looking at Mu Zhi flying towards the depths of the Forbidden Land of Life alone.

“If I didn’t speak up, even if she let you into the Forbidden Land of Life, she might still try sothing. Making my stance clear now can at least prevent so trouble,” Mu Zhian gently shook his head, replying via voice transmission.

“You’re just worried I’ll get hurt, right?”

Yao ng’s clear, erald eyes stared at Mu Zhian, a question in her gaze.

A Forbidden Land was, after all, sothing created by the Heavenly Dao in the past. Currently, everything about the Forbidden Lands was unknown. No one could guarantee that even a Transcendence Realm expert wouldn’t be injured within.

Although he was always considerate of the won around him, such a clear expression of concern for soone… was a first.

Thinking of this, a beautiful smile appeared on Yao ng’s lips.

If Mu Zhian was compared to a married ‘wife’, then the current ‘wife’ Mu was already at the level of favoring the ‘young punk’.

Mu Zhian remained silent.

Based on past experience, he should have remained silent when Yao ng and Mu Zhi clashed earlier.

After all, this was the Forbidden Land of Life, and Mu Zhi was supposedly his childhood ‘fiancée’. Offending her wasn’t a wise choice.

But he couldn’t help but speak up just now…

Seeing Mu Zhian’s silence, Yao ng looked at him with a smile, her clear eyes, like a cold pool, filled with amusent and tenderness.

In a sense, it was thanks to Mu Zhi’s provocation… that she got to see such an interesting scene.

She should really thank her.

“By the way, Big Brother,” Mu Zhi, having arrived at the palace, suddenly stopped and turned her head slightly.

Under Yao ng’s calm gaze, Mu Zhi smiled.

“Big Brother must be ready to marry now, right?”

Yao ng’s smile faltered.

…

Marry…?

Even after entering the Forbidden Land of Life’s palace, led by Mu Zhi, Yao ng was still in a state of shock.

She looked at Mu Zhian as if he were a pervert, her usually bright green eyes slightly darkened, a strange look on her face.

She didn’t expect him to not only have a thing for older won, but also for…

Even Mu Zhian couldn’t quite handle being looked at as if he were a pervert by Yao ng.

He couldn’t help but look at Mu Zhi, who was leading the way, and asked, “Mu Zhi, what exactly do you an by ‘marry’?”

This Mu Zhi was clearly getting back at him for siding with Yao ng earlier, deliberately bringing up the matter of ‘marriage’ at this juncture.

However, Mu Zhi didn’t seem to hear him. She gracefully pushed open the palace doors, her hair fluttering in the wind, her black skirt swaying like a black butterfly.

Seemingly noticing that Mu Zhian hadn’t followed, Mu Zhi slowed down and walked beside him.

“You should have already guessed what I an, why ask again?”

She tilted her head, looking at Mu Zhian with feigned innocence, took his large, warm hand in her small one, and said with a smile, “I already hinted at it when we were in the Eastern Continent. With your intelligence, you should have already figured out our relationship, right?”

Mu Zhi suddenly clapped her hands together, as if realizing sothing, and turned her head, a pure smile appearing on her face, “Oh… or do you want to ntion it again in front of Sister Jade Empress, so she’ll give up on the idea of marrying you?”

Mu Zhian almost lost his composure, “Be serious, I’m not joking.”

“I’m not joking either,” Mu Zhi’s tone turned serious. “I truly intend to marry you this ti.”

“Mu Zhi, you should know he’s already married, right?”

Finally, Yao ng lost her patience and said with a smile, “No matter who it is, getting married twice isn’t very appropriate, is it?”

Although she was smiling, a dangerous glint flickered beneath the surface.

“And also,” she paused, then continued faintly, “on what grounds are you marrying him?”

Judging from Mu Zhian’s attitude earlier, he clearly didn’t know about this marriage… After all, Mu Zhian had never t Mu Zhi before, how could he rashly agree to marry a Forbidden Zone Lord?

“It seems you don’t know about the relationship between Big Brother and ,” Mu Zhi said in surprise.

Relationship?

When did he beco involved with the master of the Forbidden Land of Life… ?

Yao ng’s eyes flickered, and she discreetly observed the small and delicate girl in the black dress.

Mu Zhi smiled and took two steps back, gracefully lifting her skirt, “My apologies for forgetting to introduce myself earlier. Allow to reintroduce myself.”

“My na is Mu Zhi, the ‘Mu’ from Mu Zhian, and the ‘Zhi’ from white zhi (Angelica dahurica).”

“I was brought to the Forbidden Land of Life by Mother. Although I didn’t really want to beco the master of the Forbidden Land of Life, I accidentally reached Dao Integration in just two years, so I was forced to beco its master.”

Born at Soul Transformation Realm, reaching Dao Integration in two years… Such a feat was nothing short of monstrous.

Although it sounded like bragging, when ntioning the position of ‘master of the Forbidden Land of Life’, Mu Zhi’s small face showed a troubled expression, as if she wasn’t truly interested in the position.

If it weren’t for becoming the master of the Forbidden Land of Life, unable to easily leave, she could have gone to Tianxuan City with Mu Zhian in the past.

But it didn’t matter now.

After all, she had endured for so many years, and Mu Zhian had finally co to the Forbidden Land of Life.

“By the way, I grew up with your so-called husband,” Mu Zhi said with a slight smile, as if retaliating against Yao ng’s earlier provocation, her tone soft and gentle, “As for our relationship… My mother designated as his fiancée long ago.”

Yao ng fell into a brief silence.

…Fiancée?

She subconsciously glanced at Mu Zhian, only to see him, unusually, not refuting, but with a look of ‘so that’s how it is’ on his face.

This made Yao ng’s heart sink.

Actually, ever since eting Mu Zhian, Yao ng had vaguely suspected that his background wasn’t as simple as it seed.

After all, how could an ordinary young master from a small family possess an Innate Celestial Furnace that could continuously evolve, and even be secretly cared for and protected by Shang Yanfei since his youth?

If Mu Zhian had a connection to the Forbidden Land of Life, then many things made sense.

Perhaps Shang Yanfei was acting on behalf of the Forbidden Land of Life, which was why she had always been looking after Mu Zhian?

Of course, there was another possibility.

For example, it wasn’t Shang Yanfei acting on behalf of the Forbidden Land of Life, but the Forbidden Land of Life acting on behalf of Shang Yanfei… ?

If it were the forr, it would be fine, but if it were the latter…

Even the Jade Empress, who had cuckolded her way through Mu Zhian’s fishpond, felt uneasy thinking about this possibility.

Imagine, from the mont Mu Zhian was born, the Sect Master of the Two Polarities Sect had been secretly watching over him, watching him grow up… During this ti, Shang Yanfei wouldn’t have been without rivals. She could have done anything she wanted. With Shang Yanfei’s beauty and thods, a pure young boy at that age, she could probably have him wrapped around her finger with just a beckon.

She could even mold Mu Zhian into whatever shape she desired.

Perhaps, during Mu Zhian’s childhood, Shang Yanfei had already…

Just then, Mu Zhian’s voice pulled Yao ng back to reality.

“Where is Mu Wange now?”

Although ‘Taboo’ said Mu Wange wasn’t his biological mother, she was the one who raised him, this couldn’t be wrong.

Mu Zhian had many questions for that woman.

Why did Mu Wange seal him within a formation, only releasing him in this life?

And why did she send him to the Mu family in Tianxuan City?

Where did Mu Wange go during that ti?

Before Mu Zhi could answer, the three of them heard footsteps.

The footsteps ca from behind the palace.

Mu Zhi gracefully walked to Mu Zhian’s side, took his arm, and looked up.

With a childlike look of anticipation, Mu Zhi gazed at the faintly visible, slender figure behind the palace and said softly:

“Mother is here.”
