So, They Were the Protagonists All Along

Chapter 220 The Death of Mu Zhian 7,000 Words (1/2)

Should I not go back to Yaochi...?

Looking at the two land immortals in front of him and the black-dressed woman beside him who was full of oppression, this thought flashed through Mu Zhian's mind.

Then, he was relieved again soon.

No, it's not that he shouldn't go back to Yaochi, but no one expected that these people would turn against each other without any cover-up.

Logically speaking, this is a very strange thing. Even if they can really get rid of the people in Yaochi Holy Land without anyone noticing and get the Tiandan Phoenix Fruit, what can they do?

How to send it to the Pilgrimage Hall of Liangyi Sect to the First Generation Demon Emperor?

There must be some invisible conspiracy in this.

"After the Qing Emperor comes out of retreat, none of you can escape!" A Yaochi elder on the side shouted angrily.

"During the Qing Emperor's retreat, is there still room for resistance?" Fu Yuan smiled lightly.

The man in green robe also sneered: "Others will naturally take action on her side."

Those who can establish such a huge force in Dongzhou are naturally not fools. Since they dare to act, they are mentally prepared.

Some forces in Dongzhou are responsible for the Yaochi Holy Land, while the Qing Emperor is handled by the demon cultivators.

The other party is not afraid of the Qing Emperor, but wants to defeat her while she is condensing the cauldron? !

This answer made many people in Yaochi tremble with fear.

"Fu Yuan, we are not from Yaochi. Let me go. I swear not to disclose any information about this place." An elder of an ancient family said.

He is from another ancient family. It was just a coincidence that he appeared here, but he didn't want to encounter this.

These two pavilion masters are both Return to Void Grade 5, plus the blessing of the ancestral artifact, most of the Return to Void realm can hardly resist. Since they chose to take action at this time, they naturally brought the ancestral artifact of the clan, so they dared to be so unscrupulous.

Next, three or four elders expressed their opinions and vowed not to disclose the things here and wanted to leave.

Fu Yuan raised his eyebrows slightly, glanced at them, and said: "Since you are so sincere, I will not make it difficult for you. You can leave on your own."

Is this person so kind? Mu Zhian looked at the elders who left, frowned slightly, and always felt an indescribable strange feeling in his heart.

Then, he suddenly heard a scream coming from outside the Yaochi Holy Land.

It was the voice of the elders who were about to leave!

Mu Zhian turned his head suddenly and saw a person walking out of the holy land.

No... That can no longer be called a person, but a monster.

It has tentacles all over its body, an octopus head, and a pair of bat wings on its back. It looks ferocious and weird!

"People from the Southern Wilderness?!" A Yaochi elder almost blurted out.

It is said that in the Southern Wilderness, their god is in this posture, and you cannot look directly at him, because when you see him, you will see the fear deep in your heart.

And the tribesmen of that god are also such monsters.

Of course, there are not many such monsters, but each of them is at least the strength of returning to the void, and their bodies alone can resist several attacks from the ancestral artifacts.

I didn't expect that even people from the Southern Wilderness would come...

This incident not only involves the demon worlds of Dongzhou and Beizhou, but also the shadow of the Southern Wilderness!

Some people don't want Dongzhou to have another empress, so they want to kill him and revive the first generation of demon emperors to cause chaos in Dongzhou!

"Miss Lina, I have to ask you for help here." Fu Yuan said with a smile, but he also looked at this strange creature that looked thrilling with fear.

"Not only are you colluding with the remnants of the previous demon emperor, but you are also involved with the Southern Wilderness. Aren't you afraid that there will be no place for you in Dongzhou in the future?!" The Queen Mother of Yaochi stared at the two of them, with a little more shock and anger in her tone.

"I said, it's you who colluded with the Demon King, not us." Fu Yuan smiled faintly.

"The truth is only in the hands of the living."

"The dead can't speak!"

The next moment, the smile on Fu Yuan's face disappeared, and he sacrificed the ancestral weapon of the clan.

This is an emperor-level weapon. Although it looks dilapidated and even a little rusty, the deterrence it exudes at this time makes the faces of the people present change.

The Queen Mother of Yao Chi also sacrificed an ancestral weapon behind her. Looking at the three people in front of her, her face became a little more heavy.

These two may not know that they are just being used by others, but in order to have the opportunity to advance to the realm of enlightenment, they still chose this path.

There is the shadow of Nanhuang behind this incident, which is the reason why they can be so unscrupulous.

"My friend Mu, I will do my best to send you and Yao Yue away from here with other elders, and then send a signal to reveal their true colors."

Mu Zhian suddenly heard the voice of the Queen Mother of Yao Chi in his ears. He glanced at the beautiful woman in the distance calmly, and then nodded silently.

He was an extremely calm person who knew what to do and when. He could not intervene in the battle at the Return to Void level, but as long as the signal was transmitted to the outside world, they would win.

Ding!

At this moment, an ancient bell sounded suddenly in the Yao Chi Holy Land. This was one of the Yao Chi's ancestral artifacts. Just hearing this sound at this time made people feel as if their souls were about to fly out.

When everyone was in a trance, Mu Zhian glanced at the Yao Chi Saintess and others not far away, and almost without any hesitation, he flew with her on the sword towards the outside of Yao Chi.

"Hmph!"

However, at this moment, a cold snort suddenly sounded. With just one sound, Mu Zhian felt discomfort in his internal organs.

This was the pressure of the Return to Void Realm, and also the blessing brought by the ancestral artifact. It was difficult for the Return to Void Realm at the same level to resist, let alone the Refining Spirit Realm.

There seemed to be something on the body of the Saint of Yao Chi that resisted the pressure brought by this voice, but she was also a little uncomfortable. Her face was a little pale, but she still gritted her teeth and wanted to rush out of the backyard.

Fu Yuan sneered and was about to attack.

At this time, the Queen Mother of Yao Chi also raised her hand, and the spiritual energy turned into a huge sword blade and rushed towards him.

The elders of Yao Chi beside him attacked one after another, their eyes were red, and they seemed to want to escort the Saint of Yao Chi away from here even if they died.

However, several old men beside Fu Yuan also attacked, which also announced the beginning of this melee.

Shouts of killing rang out in Yaochi, but could not be heard outside. Everyone could clearly feel the sound of weapons colliding and the pressure of spiritual energy.

The green-robed man in Zihong Pavilion laughed heartily: "Do you really think you can leave here? You can't escape unless the barrier is destroyed."

As soon as he finished speaking, he turned his head to look at the slender back of the Yaochi Saint who seemed to be about to leave in the distance, revealing a playful look like a cat playing with a mouse, and raised his hand to grab the void in her direction.

No one even noticed what happened. The action of the Yaochi Saint flying on the sword was shaken violently, and then fell uncontrollably.

The green-robed man snorted coldly: "What can a genius do? Before she grows up, she is just an ordinary cultivator in the Refining Spirit Realm."

"Shi Fei, tie her up with a talisman and bring her back to Zihong Pavilion. I still have a lot of use. If she resists, break her hands and feet."

For this Pavilion Master, Shi Fei dared not be angry but could only nod.

Yao Chi Saint was also born with a Taoist fetus. He knew exactly what the man in green robe wanted to do, but he had no way to stop her.

"A Pavilion Master in the Return to Void Realm actually wants to attack a young girl. If it gets out, your reputation will be completely ruined." Not far away, an elder of Xuantian Pavilion couldn't help but sneer, looking at Yao Chi Saint with regret in his eyes.

Who wouldn't want to get a Taoist fetus?

"Fairy Yao Yue, you can't blame me for this. I will ask my father to save your life in the future." Shi Fei said.

Although he couldn't get a Taoist fetus, he could also imprison Yao Chi Saint in the clan. Such a beauty, he would never get tired of playing with her for a lifetime.

Staring at the soft figure of Yao Chi Saint, Shi Fei's eyes revealed a trace of greed.

Yao Chi Saint bit her lips tightly and could only watch Shi Fei take out a talisman and then stick it on her body.

However, in the next moment, there was a sound like breaking the wind behind him, and the Lone Star Sword blasted out with lightning speed and pierced into Shi Fei's chest.

This sudden attack caught people off guard. Shi Fei spurted out a mouthful of blood and slowly lowered his head to look at the sword blade that pierced his chest.

The man in green robe also reacted and turned his head to look behind him, but he happened to see a scroll unfolding instantly, which was about to suck him into it.

Eight Desolate Dream Map!

The Saint of Yao Chi hesitated slightly, and then, suppressing the stabbing pain in her chest, turned around without hesitation and rushed out of Yao Chi.

However, the outside world had already been surrounded by disciples from the two major pavilions. Most of them were only in the Qi Training Realm, but even with the human sea tactics, it was enough to continuously consume the spiritual energy in the Yao Chi Saint's cauldron.

This also greatly hindered her progress.

On the other side, the man in green robe emanated a wave of spiritual energy, instantly blasted open the Eight Desolate Dream Map, and looked at Mu Zhian with a gloomy face.

A young cultivator in the Spirit Refining Realm actually dared to play tricks on him? !

At this moment, a charming and seductive voice suddenly came from the side: "Mu Zhian should be kept, he will be of great use to me later."

The woman in black licked her lips charmingly and said softly: "I will make him swear not to disclose this matter. In addition, I will also cut his tendons and let him stay at my feet as my pet and not disturb others."

However, as soon as the voice fell, the man in green robe snorted coldly, raised his hand and waved it, and a dark green flame blasted out, turning into a sharp blade and blasting towards Mu Zhian.

The woman in black frowned slightly, but did not speak, just sighed: "What a pity."

The dark green flame fell in the direction of Mu Zhian, but at this moment, the yellow-skirted maid beside her took action in time and blocked Mu Zhian with a sword.

She stepped back a few steps, seemed a little embarrassed, but still barely blocked the attack.

"Oh?"

The green-robed man looked at the yellow-skirted beauty with a little more interest.

He hadn't paid much attention to her before... The maid next to Mu Zhian seemed to be several times stronger than her master...

However... no matter how strong she was, she was only at the Spirit Refining Realm. How many times could she last in his hands? !

The green-robed man's eyes turned cold, and he raised his hand again, and a ray of blue flame blasted out.

It was just a casual attack for him, but when it landed in front of Wei Mengrou, it was like a mountain slowly moving from a distance, and a huge sense of oppression came instantly.

At this moment, a scream suddenly came from the crowd. The green-robed man glanced and found hundreds of golden firebirds flying in the air, crashing into the disciples who were blocking the Saint of Yao Chi.

Most of these disciples were from Zihong Pavilion and Xuantian Pavilion, and they were basically in the Qi training stage, so it was naturally difficult for them to resist this formation.

The one who manipulated the formation was the young man with a natural furnace physique.

The green-robed man narrowed his eyes and was about to raise his hand to suppress it.

At this time, an elder of Yaochi took action in time and entangled with the green-robed man, forcing him to concentrate on dealing with the enemy in front of him.

Although Mu Zhian rarely took action in the past, it did not mean that he was really weak. At least he had not met anyone who could defeat him in the same realm. It was just that he was always protected by people stronger than himself in the past, so he did not need to do it himself.

The Hundred Birds Chain Formation killed dozens of people in a row. They rushed out from the backyard and attacked the disciples of the two major pavilions surrounded by the Yaochi Holy Land.

Hearing the continuous screams, the green-robed man's eyes finally became a little more gloomy. After he raised his hand to block the attack of the Yao Chi elder, he suddenly turned his head to look at Mu Zhian on the ground and said slowly:

"You will die miserably."

Mu Zhian ignored him, or he didn't want to answer.

At this time, his cauldron was running at high speed, and he was still chewing pills in his mouth.

He couldn't intervene in the battle of the Return to Void Realm, but the elders of the Yao Chi Holy Land and the Queen Mother of Yao Chi could stop them temporarily.

But if he continued to delay, the situation would become more and more grim.

If he wanted to leave, he could only try his best.

Mu Zhian took out another jade bottle and poured all the pills into his mouth.

Most of these were pills to restore spiritual energy, and one of them was a turtle breath pill.

I hope the turtle breath pill is useful, I can't die yet...Mu Zhian raised his hand to control the formation in his heart. Every golden firebird penetrated into the body of a cultivator, and burned his cauldron to ashes.

He followed the Saint of Yao Chi, and while the formation was running, he continued to kill all the monks surrounding him, and the spiritual energy in his cauldron was also rapidly dissipating.

Although most of these monks were in the Qi training realm, even the monks in the spirit training realm could not withstand the large number of people. The Saint of Yao Chi was always covered by the moonlight, but her face was extremely pale.

These monks gradually learned to be smart in the battle. Only some of them stayed at the door to block them, and the rest of them were shooting "cold arrows" from behind to consume the spiritual energy of Mu Zhian and the Saint of Yao Chi.

Wei Mengrou was also powerless, and was blocked by the woman in black skirt, so it was difficult for her to help Mu Zhian.

The woman in black skirt obviously did not kill her, but simply wanted to delay Wei Mengrou. The expression on her face was always relaxed, as if she was a cat teasing a mouse.

It was not that she did not want to kill her, her physique was special, and just now she felt that there was something strange in the body of the yellow skirt maid. If she killed her rashly at this moment, there might be changes.

"Even with Huiyuan Dan, the spiritual energy supply is insufficient. If this continues, I will really be finished..." Mu Zhian looked at the dense crowd and thought to himself that it was not good.

But if he retreated now, it would undoubtedly make Yao Chi Saint Lady the target of public criticism. She would become the target of everyone's fire.

If they did not retreat, they might all die here.

At this time, he suddenly felt that Yao Chi Saint Lady seemed to be emitting extremely terrifying spiritual energy. She turned her head slightly and looked at Mu Zhian, and said in a voice transmission: "Mr. Mu, I will take you away from here."

Her eyes, which were clear and transparent in the past, turned light gold at this time.

Mu Zhian could sense that her vitality seemed to have disappeared a lot.

Is this girl so desperate... Mu Zhian was slightly stunned.

Yao Chi Saint Lady obviously used some secret method to forcibly improve her realm, but after this time, her life span will also be greatly affected.

If she fails to successfully enter the Return to Void Realm to increase her lifespan, she may die midway.

However, Mu Zhian only saw a look of determination in the eyes of the Saintess of Yao Chi.

How can I run away... Mu Zhian sighed in his heart.

Then, he took a deep breath and exhaled slowly.

"Get out of the way." He suddenly transmitted a voice.

As soon as a trace of doubt flashed through the Saintess of Yao Chi's mind, she saw Mu Zhian raise the black sword in his hand.

The spiritual energy in his cauldron completely disappeared in an instant, and the Lone Star Sword merged into the surging spiritual energy at that moment.

The ground shook slightly, and several Return to Void Realm cultivators who were fighting not far away also noticed this scene. Fu Yuan's face changed slightly, and he said in a hurry: "Quickly retreat!"

However, his reminder was still a little too late. When Fu Yuan's voice fell, Mu Zhian's sword had already slashed from mid-air.

Focus on one point and reach the pinnacle!

Boom!

The sword burst out with dazzling light like a star, and a huge crack appeared on the ground centered on Mu Zhian. The cultivators who were blocking the front were smashed to pieces by the light of the star before they could dodge.

The shouting that had just blocked the door was instantly silent, and the red lips of the Saint of Yao Chi slightly opened, and she was also a little dazed.

Such an attack was not at all like what a cultivator of the second level of soul refining could burst out.

"Go!" Mu Zhian sent a voice message, and also pulled the Saint of Yao Chi back to reality from her previous stagnation.

His cauldron had no spiritual energy at all, and even if he wanted to run, he couldn't run anymore.

The Saint of Yao Chi looked at Mu Zhian deeply, and then turned around without hesitation and rushed out of the Holy Land of Yao Chi.

Mu Zhian retracted his gaze, lowered his eyelids slightly, and there was a hint of darkness in his eyes.

When the Saint of Yao Chi asked him to leave just now, he still wanted to leave.

But Sister Mengrou is still here... I always feel that after I leave, I will live in the shadow of today's decision for the rest of my life.

He has never been a kind person, but in life, he does not seek mercy and help the world, but he seeks to have a clear conscience.

"Join hands to help the Saint send out the signal of the accident in Yaochi!"

Several Yaochi elders looked at each other and burned their own vitality without hesitation. This is Yaochi's secret method. If the Yaochi Saint can use it, they can naturally do it too.

boom!

There was a loud rumbling sound from the barrier, but it still did not waver at all.

"snort!"

The elders of the two major pavilions took action one after another, blocking the way of several Yaochi elders.

At this time, Mu Zhian suddenly felt a pain in his chest, and blood spattered from his body.

He slowly looked down and saw a green flame blade piercing his heart.

The man in green robe had a gloomy look on his face. He did not expect that with all his careful planning, he would cause so many casualties to his disciples because of a young monk in the God Refining Realm.

"I said, you will die miserably." The man in green robe said slowly with a gloomy face.

Mu Zhian said nothing and coughed up blood.

"Damn it, people in this world don't play their cards according to the rules. When I'm in the God Refining Realm, the enemies of the Return to the Void Realm are running around... How can I play with this?"

At this moment, scenes from the past kept flashing through Mu Zhian's mind, flashing like a raging film projector, until finally, his eyes gradually turned gray.

At the entrance of Yaochi Holy Land, countless eyes were staring at Mu Zhian. After an unknown length of silence, someone finally spoke.

"He's dead...?"

"...The Pavilion Master is mighty!"

"Kill him! So what if the natural furnace cauldron is not helpful at all in the battle!"

The disciples who had been frightened by the Lone Star Sword just now and could not move, after coming back to their senses, shouted in anger.

Mu Zhian's vision was blurry. He looked at everything in front of him, the sarcastic smile on the face of the man in green robes, the clash of swords shouting and killing in the distance, and the clamoring monks in front of him.

Those sounds and images seemed to merge together in his mind, and then continued to speed up, until finally, the brain completely stopped functioning in the next moment.

Mu Zhian slowly closed his eyes.

Liangyi Sect, Tianheyuan.

Lin Ling, who was sitting in the villa eating meat buns, suddenly froze for a moment and subconsciously turned his head to look in a certain direction.

There was a hint of confusion in her red eyes.

Then, as if she noticed something, her eyes slowly opened wide, and the entire sky seemed to be reflected in her pupils.

"Senior Lin Ling, what are you looking at?" Bai Ruoxi, who had a simple and gentle temperament, noticed Lin Ling's abnormality and asked softly.

Several words appeared on the table, and Bai Ruoxi looked at them. There were only a few words written on them: His vitality disappeared.

"he……?"

Bai Ruoxi whispered to herself, and when she found the words on the table reappearing, she looked at them, and her eyes froze.

The name on the table is: Mu Zhian.

boom!

There was a violent collision in mid-air. The Queen Mother of Yaochi's lips were extremely pale, and she stumbled back a few steps, her chest heaving violently.

With the three cultivators in the Void Return Realm and the fact that they held ancestral weapons, she naturally couldn't handle it alone.

If it weren't for the fact that these three people were worried that the Queen Mother of Yaochi would counterattack before she died, she would have been unable to support her now.

The Queen Mother of Yaochi adjusted her spiritual energy and swept her eyes across the ground. Then, her eyes quickly fell on the young man at the entrance of Yaochi Holy Land.

There was a big hole in his chest, blood stained his robes, and everywhere under his feet were the corpses of monks who had been killed by the focused Lone Star Sword not long ago.

The Queen Mother of Yaochi suddenly raised her head with an angry look on her face: "You——"

"What are we?" The man in green robe sneered: "Mu Zhian committed suicide out of fear of crime, what does that have to do with us?"

"Besides, after Qing Emperor dies, who else can help him?"

A young monk met the Qing Emperor because of his luck, but the current Qing Emperor was still condensing the cauldron. Although there were five elders from the Return to Void Realm of the Yaochi Holy Land guarding there, the people who took action this time were the subordinates of the first generation Demon Emperor. .

Naturally, they dared to take action only when they were well prepared.

Even if Qing Emperor really survived this time and condensed the cauldron, they would have already blocked the secrets of heaven and fled Dongzhou with the elixir.

boom!

There was a rumble in the air, and the man in green robe looked up slightly, seeing a Yaochi elder continuously bombarding the barrier in the air before Shou Yuan was approaching, and he couldn't help but reveal a sarcastic smile on his face.

"I have said that it is impossible to break the barrier. Only the caster can break this formation."

The Yaochi elder had a gray beard and an old face. His eyes were also burning with golden flames, and he suddenly turned around and rushed towards the master of Xuantian Pavilion.

However, the next moment, Fu Yuan suddenly moved. His speed was too fast. The ancestral weapon he sacrificed shone with power. He picked up the collar of Elder Yaochi, then turned around and smashed it to the ground behind him.

The Queen Mother of Yaochi, who was restrained by the other two, glared at Fu Yuan in shock and anger, saying: "Fu Yuan!"

"Calm down, your physical condition is not good now, be careful of anger."

A cold smile appeared on Fu Yuan's face, and he pulled out a sharp blade from the void.

The Yaochi elder could only watch the sharp blade falling from mid-air, his eyes full of indignation and despair.

Click.

At this moment, a crisp cracking sound suddenly came from the completely sealed Yaochi Holy Land, which also made Fu Yuan's hand stop abruptly.

Several people were shocked and looked up subconsciously.

Boom!

The ground shook violently, and then a huge palm print fell from the sky. It grabbed the barrier, and then, under countless horrified eyes, it squeezed hard!

It crushed the indestructible barrier together with it!

At this moment, the sun shone into the gloomy Yaochi, and the woman in the green skirt in the sun quietly floated in the air, looking down at everything in Yaochi, like a god.

"You are really brave."

When the voice like the sound of nature sounded, it seemed that the time of the whole world had stopped.

The man in the green robe and others were motionless, like a sculpture.

At this moment, their minds were blank.

Why is the Green Emperor here...?

Shouldn't the previous demon cultivators have stopped the Green Emperor from condensing the cauldron? Why is the Green Emperor here? Fu Yuan and the others screamed in their hearts.

The Green Skirt Fairy stood in midair, looking down at the ground indifferently.

Looking at the tragic situation in Yaochi, a hint of coldness appeared in her eyes for the first time.

These people have been planning the Heavenly Dan Phoenix Fruit since early morning... Not only the previous demon cultivators, but even the cultivators from the Southern Wilderness participated in it.

And their purpose is to stop her from returning to the Hedao realm.

Because the original Dongzhou was already too strong, and with the addition of a Green Emperor...

But they probably wouldn't have thought that everything would be changed because of a little cultivator in the Refining Spirit Realm.

No one would have thought that the buffing effect brought by the natural furnace would speed up the time it takes for the Green Emperor to condense the cauldron to this extent.

The Green Skirt Fairy floated down from midair, scanning everything in front of her.

Most of the corpses here were not from the Yaochi Holy Land, but from the cultivators of the two major pavilions.

This also made her feel a little relieved.

Just as she was about to look away, she caught sight of something out of the corner of her eye, and her body suddenly froze.

She stared silently, and after a brief silence, her body trembled slightly. She floated down from midair and slowly walked towards the entrance of the holy land.

It was so quiet that there was not a sound, as if one could hear the sound of everyone's heartbeat.

Under countless gazes, she finally came to the gate of Yaochi, silently staring at the black-robed boy who had lost his vitality.

The indifferent expression on her face finally solidified at this moment.
