On the top of the green mountain, fog is surging.

Ye Liujun sat cross-legged on the ground. The space he was in was separated from this world, independent from the outside world, and could collapse at any time.

His body was bound, stiff, cold, and unable to move.

The original consciousness seemed to have separated from the body, but was entangled and imprisoned by the power of shackles, and could only float near the body, with life and death out of control.

Hearing this hoarse and weathered voice, Ye Liujun's shadow of consciousness trembled slightly, and he felt uneasy as if facing a powerful enemy.

"You want to intervene?"

The sky and the earth were dark, and every inch of space was filled with a suffocating sense of oppression. With the help of the power of the shackles, Mu Cangyan's voice crossed the endless void and descended into this world, like countless huge mountains falling.

This feeling of oppression had no effect on Zhixi at all. She wore a plain veil on her face and looked indifferent.

"Yes."

As soon as she uttered a word, vast royal power surged out, wiping out the invisible pressure that was pressing down on her with the force of thunder, and restoring peace to the area.

"He has nothing to do with you, why?"

Mu Cangyan needs a reason.

"My pleasure."

The existence behind the scenes that makes many emperors change color when talking about it is no different from ordinary people in Zhixi's eyes. There is no need to be afraid of or make concessions.

As soon as the words fell, heaven and earth fell silent.

This area seemed to be shrouded in extreme coldness, it was dark and gloomy, and everything was frozen.

Ye Liujun's consciousness turned into a phantom, connected to his physical body, and watched the show from a close distance, his eyes fixed.

"You've crossed a line."

After a few breaths, Mu Cangyan issued a warning in a not very pleasant tone.

In a trance, a vague figure appeared in the distorted space. It was as tall as a small hill and was surrounded by black fog, so its true appearance could not be seen.

Over the years, Zhixi and Mu Cangyan have been keeping their distance from each other, maintaining this delicate balance and living well.

Zhixi went to the Jinxue restricted area and lived there for a while. Mu Cangyan knew what she meant, so he gave her face and gave up the idea of ​​attacking An Xiruo again.

Today, Zhixi suddenly changed her previous style of behavior and was determined to protect Ye Liujun, who had nothing to do with her, which caught Mu Cangyan off guard.

According to Zhixi's personality, she would not meddle in these trivial matters.

"Crossing the line? Who sets the line?"

Zhixi disagrees.

Mu Cangyan was silent. This tall and burly blurry figure contained extremely strong pressure, towering over all living beings.

After a while, he said, "Between you and me, it's best not to interfere with each other."

"I'll save his life."

Zhixi rejected Mu Cangyan's proposal without thinking and did not adopt it at all.

As cold as ice, with a resolute tone,

Strange-looking lotuses bloomed all around Zhixi, there were over ten thousand of them and the number was still increasing.

Doom!

These words were like a bolt of thunder that came from the sky and struck my heart directly.

Dark clouds loomed overhead, and time froze. The scene was extremely depressing, and there was a dead silence.

Ye Liujun was shocked, surprised and admired by the domineering Zhixi.

The ancient empress who created that forbidden history was truly domineering and fascinating, far beyond the reach of emperors of other times.

The illusory figures of Zhixi and Mu Cangyan stared at each other. No one spoke. They were fighting invisibly. The air was rubbing slightly and the temperature was dropping continuously.

If they fail to reach an agreement, a war is likely to break out.

It was the calm before the storm, and an extremely tense atmosphere permeated the space.

"Is there no room for negotiation?"

If it wasn't necessary, Mu Cangyan really didn't want to have too much of a conflict with Zhixi, so he changed the subject and softened his tone, wanting to discuss something.

"What do you think?"

Zhixi stood there with a cold look in her eyes. She did not give a direct reply but asked a question instead.

Mu Cangyan was silent again.

He has known Zhixi for so many years and knows her character very well.

Zhixi likes to be alone, free and unrestrained, and doesn't care about anything. However, once she decides to do something, no one can change her mind. She is willing to do her best for it without considering the consequences.

“He’s very important to me.”

After thinking for a while, Mu Cangyan refused to give in. Firstly, he wanted to test whether Zhixi really wanted to protect Ye Liujun; secondly, he was reluctant to give up Ye Liujun, an important chess piece, who played a significant role in the research of the Great Dao of Immortality.

Enough has been said today, Zhixi didn't want to waste time on talking to Mu Cangyan. She raised her right hand and gently pressed towards Ye Liujun's position, casting a special mysterious shield to ensure that his consciousness would not dissipate in a short time.

Then, Zhixi slowly turned around and decided to leave.

Ye Liujun's shadow of consciousness stood still, taking a look at the protective shield. He didn't understand what Zhixi's action meant, and his face was filled with confusion.

Ye Liujun looked bewildered, but Mu Cangyan understood clearly, his heart skipped a beat and he cursed inwardly, "Crazy woman."

Judging from her posture, it was clear that she was going to the other side to look for Mu Cangyan. As for what she was going to do, it was obvious.

They start fighting as soon as they disagree, without considering the consequences at all.

In Mu Cangyan's eyes, Zhixi is a complete and utterly crazy woman with terrifying strength.

Mu Cangyan, who was at a critical moment, certainly didn't want to disrupt his rhythm because of this kind of thing. If he really had to fight with Zhixi, it would be a lose-lose situation, and no one would benefit.

Zhixi had no concerns and acted as if she was going to kill you if she was unhappy with you. Mu Cangyan couldn't do that and needed to consider a lot of things.

"stop!"

If Zhixi really came to the other side, it would be too late to give in then. No matter what he said, he would have to fight, which would only add to his troubles. Therefore, seeing that Zhixi was about to leave, Mu Cangyan was worried and finally chose to give in and shouted to stop.

Zhixi didn't retract her left foot yet, waiting to see what nonsense Mu Cangyan would say.

"I'll give you this face."

Although Mu Cangyan was very reluctant, he had no choice but to do so due to the pressing situation. After a few more years, when he had achieved success, he would no longer have to be so timid.

Especially at times like this, we must keep our composure and not panic, otherwise millions of years of planning will be wasted and all our efforts will fail.

"Untie."

Zhixi turned sideways, looked at Mu Cangyan, and spoke in an imperative tone.

"you......"

Mu Cangyan was so angry that he wanted to say some dirty words to vent his dissatisfaction, but after thinking about it, he held it back.

He had already lost face by choosing to give in, but he didn't expect Zhixi to ask him to take the initiative to remove the shackles on Ye Liujun. He felt like he was being insulted and felt very uncomfortable.

"Untie."

Zhixi repeated it again with a blank expression.

After saying this, she raised her hand and waved it lightly, taking back the mysterious shield that was protecting Ye Liujun.
