It Turns Out, They Are the Protagonists
Chapter 570: A Heart-to-Heart with Mu Wange, The Truth of the Personal Interface

“Mu Wange, like me, also has a ‘personal interface’?” Mu Zhian, stunned for a long moment, finally came back to his senses and subconsciously lowered his voice. “When did you discover this?”

Wei Mengrou replied calmly, “During your conversation with Mu Wange a while ago, she looked down for a moment. I saw her open her personal interface, but there was only one achievement… I couldn’t see it clearly before she closed it.”

Mu Zhian wasn’t that surprised about someone else also having a ‘system’, this cheat-like ability.

After all, based on his past understanding, he wasn’t the only transmigrator in the Nine Provinces.

Similarly, there was more than one reincarnator.

Since transmigrators and reincarnators existed, then having a system holder wasn’t so unbelievable.

What he truly cared about was whether Mu Wange’s personal interface was the same as his.

“According to that Primordial Witch spiritual sense, my personal interface was given to me by her personally.”

Mu Zhian gazed into Wei Mengrou’s eyes, “Then who gave Mu Wange her personal interface? Or was she born with it?”

The flickering candlelight illuminated Wei Mengrou’s cold and beautiful face, tinged with a faint blush.

Looking at the contemplative Mu Zhian, she suddenly sighed softly.

I should have waited until after we were done before telling him this.

The young master was already somewhat distracted, his mind preoccupied with Mu Wange, and now she had told him something that made him even more interested in Mu Wange… Although that woman didn’t seem to have any designs on the young master, if she looked at it from another perspective…

If that woman was interested in the young master, could she just beckon and have him willingly submit?

“I’ll leave the rest to you,” Wei Mengrou said softly in her heart.

She didn’t know much about the Primordial Witch’s memories yet, because a crucial piece of the Primordial Witch’s spiritual sense was still missing.

—The third Primordial Witch spiritual sense in the depths of the Southern Wilderness.

The next moment, Wei Mengrou’s cold and aloof aura visibly receded, replaced by an indescribable charm.

Her fair and slender legs were faintly visible beneath her black gauze skirt. The Primordial Witch slowly opened her silver eyes, pure and untainted.

Seemingly realizing that Mu Zhian was still holding her down, the Primordial Witch blushed, shyly looked away, and said timidly, “Mu Lang… could you let me go?”

This attitude, and her shy and timid demeanor, clearly showed that after merging with the Lustful Witch’s spiritual sense, the Primordial Witch’s memories had mostly recovered, her personality changing once again.

Normally, Mu Zhian would tease the Primordial Witch for a while longer before releasing her, but he had more pressing matters now and quickly released his hold on her shoulders.

She tidied her silver hair, then walked to the bronze mirror, adjusted her hair, carefully examining her reflection.

“There can’t be a second personal interface in this world, Mu Lang,” the Primordial Witch said softly, her voice gentle and melodious, as she looked at Mu Zhian’s reflection in the mirror, and his gaze fixed on her.

Hearing an answer completely different from what he expected, Mu Zhian was stunned, “But Sister Mengrou said earlier…”

“What the other me said was also correct… Mu Wange did look down at her personal interface,” the Primordial Witch replied.

“That’s what I don’t understand. Logically, the ‘personal interface’ you speak of, there should only be one in this world…”

Hearing this, Mu Zhian also fell into deep thought, “And like me and Zi Xuan, she also possesses the Innate Charm Physique…”

The Innate Charm Physique, capable of captivating anyone at first glance, making them involuntarily fall in love, had to be a constitution like the Demon Empress’s or the Nine-Tailed Heavenly Fox’s.

If the Demon Empress wished, with her current Transcendence Realm cultivation, she could make Mu Zhian fall at her feet and even submit to her with just a look.

However, that Empress was too proud. Compared to using charm techniques, she preferred to conquer Mu Zhian with her own charisma.

Therefore, when facing Mu Zhian, she restrained her seductive nature as much as possible.

But Mu Wange seemingly couldn’t control her charm, hence the veil concealing her breathtaking beauty.

But regardless, this proved that Mu Wange did possess a top-tier charm physique.

This was also the main reason Mu Zhian found it so strange.

After all, a top-tier Innate Charm Physique wasn’t something common. At least in the current Nine Provinces, only those two in the Demon Realm were known to possess such captivating charm.

Most importantly, Wei Mengrou said earlier that she only saw one achievement on Mu Wange’s personal interface.

If Wei Mengrou wasn’t mistaken, this matter was even stranger.

It couldn’t possibly be that the single achievement Mu Wange possessed happened to unlock the Innate Charm Physique, could it?

That would be too much of a coincidence.

Unable to figure it out, Mu Zhian closed his eyes, trying to analyze the information he had obtained from a broader perspective.

Mu Wange was the clan leader of the Mu Clan, one of the eight great families from the beginning of time.

And tens of thousands of years ago, he was found by a woman named Mu Wange.

Not long after, Mu Wange brought back a little girl… She named the girl Mu Zhi, the current lord of the Forbidden Land of Life.

After that, Mu Zhi grew up with him, and Mu Wange seemed to have already considered Mu Zhi his fiancée.

Until one day, Mu Wange had to leave the Forbidden Land of Life… Before leaving, she sealed him within a formation.

Since then, Mu Zhi had been alone in the Forbidden Land of Life. Then, the timeline fast-forwarded to this golden age, Mu Wange returned to the Forbidden Land of Life, unsealed him, and sent him to Tianxuan City.

And then? Perhaps Mu Wange used the forbidden object of the Forbidden Land of Life, rewriting the memories of everyone in Tianxuan City who knew about the Mu Clan, making him the young master of the Mu family without a hitch.

Then, during his time as the Mu family’s young master, was Mu Wange watching him from somewhere?

If so, what was her purpose…? After all, his past life was quite boring.

After realizing he was the young master of the most powerful family in Tianxuan City, Mu Zhian spent his days visiting brothels and pleasure boats, listening to music and enjoying the company of courtesans… Although those girls sold their art, not their bodies, Mu Zhian was cute and rich, naturally popular with them.

But no matter what, his past life should have been incredibly boring to an ancient expert like her.

The real turning point was when he awakened the memories of his past life.

At that time, he obtained a ‘personal interface’, and through it, he activated achievements, even reaching Soul Transformation Realm before the age of twenty.

… Speaking of which, where did my Innate Celestial Furnace come from?

Mu Zhian suddenly wondered.

Because the Innate Celestial Furnace was the Heavenly Court, so it was an innate constitution?

If that was the case, why didn’t he have the Innate Celestial Furnace before awakening his memories in Tianxuan City?

Just as Mu Zhian thought of this, he noticed the woman beside him fidgeting slightly, then turning her face away shyly.

The Primordial Witch’s spiritual sense had returned to her body at some point, the person before him now the maid in the yellow dress.

“Sister Mengrou, what’s wrong?” Mu Zhian asked with concern.

Wei Mengrou glanced at the young man and said faintly, “You’ve been acting all seductive since just now, and you’re asking me what’s wrong?”

“The Nine-Tailed Heavenly Fox’s charming aura has been emanating from you since earlier, haven’t you noticed?” As she spoke, the maid blushed and stole a few more glances at him.

For some reason, while Mu Zhian was deep in thought earlier, she found her young master incredibly attractive, and the longer she looked, the stronger her urge to push him down became.

This must be the Nine-Tailed Heavenly Fox body’s influence, it’s definitely not because I’m a pervert or anything… The maid comforted herself inwardly.

Mu Zhian reacted and quickly suppressed the aura within his body.

He sighed helplessly. Although his strength had significantly increased after reaching Soul Transformation, a new problem arose.

He could control his innate charm before because of the Spirit Dragon’s shielding technique, but now that the shielding technique was gone, before reaching Dao Integration, he couldn’t control his charming aura like the Demon Empress.

Now, no matter where Mu Zhian went, he would inevitably attract the attention of the opposite sex.

“Sometimes I wonder if this Nine-Tailed Heavenly Fox body is truly a good thing,” Mu Zhian sighed softly.

Who else in the Nine Provinces couldn’t control their own innate charm like him?

“But after Lin Ling transcends, she can cast another shielding technique for me.”

He suddenly paused, murmuring, “Unable to control…”

As if realizing something important, goosebumps rose all over Mu Zhian’s body, his eyes widening slightly.

No… he wasn’t the only one in the Nine Provinces who couldn’t control their ‘charm’!

Mu Zhian abruptly stood up.

“…What’s wrong?” Wei Mengrou asked subconsciously, seeing the young master’s surprised and uncertain expression.

“I’ve been wondering why Mu Wange sent me to Tianxuan City back then, and, besides those two charm physiques in the Demon Realm, what other constitution could make an ancient Mu Clan leader have to cover her face with a veil.”

Mu Zhian stared intently into Wei Mengrou’s eyes and murmured, “I think… I know the answer.”

…

Candlelight flickered in the room.

A beautiful, mature woman in a magnificent dress sat on the soft couch, and a small, delicate loli curled up in her arms, nuzzling her leg like a kitten.

“You’ve grown up so much, yet you still act like a child. If Mu’er sees this, he’ll probably laugh at you,” Mu Wange said softly, gently stroking Mu Zhi’s soft hair, her dark eyes seemingly shimmering with a pink light.

That was one of the signs of the Innate Charm Physique. However, it was clearly ineffective against Mu Zhi. She swung her little feet and said faintly, “It’s fine. Big Brother probably also wants to cling to you like this, he’s just too embarrassed to admit it.”

Then, she looked up with expectant eyes and asked, “Mother, are you leaving again after returning this time?”

Mu Wange didn’t answer.

Mu Zhi’s eyes twinkled mischievously, and she said with a smile, “Sister, are you leaving again after returning this time?”

Mu Wange had told Mu Zhi before not to call her ‘Mother’, saying it made her feel old.

But Mu Zhi had gotten used to calling her that since childhood and couldn’t quite break the habit.

A gentle smile appeared on Mu Wange’s face, “I won’t be leaving anytime soon.”

A glint of joy flashed through Mu Zhi’s eyes. Just as she was about to speak,

Mu Wange seemed to sense something, gently caressed Mu Zhi’s cute little face, and said softly, “Mu’er is here to see me, he must have something to say. You should go back tonight.”

“Okay… Actually, I wouldn’t disturb your conversation even if I stayed,” Mu Zhi thought for a moment, then sighed softly, “But Big Brother might feel awkward…”

“In that case, I’ll come see you tomorrow,” she continued.

Mu Wange nodded with a smile, then quietly watched as the young girl in her arms transformed into a deep purple light and dissipated.

After a while, a knock came on the door.

“The door’s unlocked, come in.”

Hearing the woman’s voice, Mu Zhian pushed the door open and saw the dignified and elegant mature woman sitting on the soft couch.

Mu Zhian glanced at a slight indentation on the soft couch beside Mu Wange and asked, “Did Mu Zhi come by earlier?”

Mu Wange hummed softly, “That child gets lonely easily, so she comes to see me every day since I came back.”

Despite being the lord of the Forbidden Land of Life, possessing power that terrifies cultivators in the Nine Provinces, before Mu Wange, she acts like an ordinary little girl… Mu Zhian was speechless.

“Did we really have a childhood engagement?” Mu Zhian suddenly asked.

Mu Wange smiled brightly, “Actually, if I have to say, that marriage was arranged by you… You said you liked Zhi’er very much, and there were no other children her age in the Forbidden Land of Life. Zhi’er also liked you very much, even sneaking into your room every night to nourish your meridians when you were little…”

“And later, you told her you would marry her when you grew up.”

So it wasn’t arranged by Mu Wange, but a promise made by his naive younger self… Mu Zhian’s eyelids twitched, “Didn’t you stop her?”

“Zhi’er is a good girl, she’s suitable for you,” Mu Wange said with a gentle smile.

“Although she might seem fierce and cruel sometimes, she wouldn’t harm her own.”

Mu Zhian entered the room, closed the door behind him, looked at the dignified beauty sitting on the soft couch, and said with a smile, “What if I told you I want you, not Mu Zhi?”

Mu Wange was stunned by his sudden question, only to hear Mu Zhian continue, “I always thought I was the one raising fish, the more fish in the pond, the greater my achievements… Of course, I also love them, every single one.”

“But—”

Perhaps even he himself was a fish in someone else’s pond?

Under Mu Wange’s surprised gaze, Mu Zhian suddenly reached out, wanting to lift her veil.

Mu Wange quickly reacted, a hint of displeasure in her voice, “Mu’er, you can’t do that! If you see my face, you’ll be captivated by me!”

As she spoke, Spiritual Energy surged from her body, trying to block Mu Zhian’s hand.

A brilliant golden halo enveloped Mu Wange, and Mu Zhian’s hand, about to touch the woman’s veil, felt a scorching heat.

He instinctively wanted to pull his hand back.

But Mu Zhian gritted his teeth, enduring the searing heat that felt like it could melt iron, and pushed his hand through the golden halo.

Hiss!

Almost instantly, his hand seemed to be burned to the bone, then quickly regenerated.

For a Soul Transformation cultivator, as long as a wisp of their spiritual sense remained, their body could be rebuilt.

But the pain remained.

A look of distress flickered in Mu Wange’s eyes, but seeing Mu Zhian’s determined expression, she silently withdrew the golden halo.

And at this moment, Mu Zhian reached for her veil.

He gently lifted it.

The candlelight illuminated her breathtakingly beautiful face, exuding a mature charm, her eyes gentle and compassionate.

“You’re so beautiful,” Mu Zhian said sincerely, staring at Mu Wange’s face.

And her eyes, faintly shimmering with a pink light.

He asked softly, “You also possess the Nine-Tailed Heavenly Fox body, don’t you?”

The moment his words fell, Mu Wange’s beautiful eyes widened slightly in surprise.

After a moment, a look of understanding appeared in her eyes.

And this expression confirmed Mu Zhian’s guess.

In this world, logically, only he and Bai Ruoxi should possess the Nine-Tailed Heavenly Fox body.

But the charming physique Mu Wange possessed was undoubtedly also the Nine-Tailed Heavenly Fox body.

“Mu’er…”

Mu Wange’s red lips parted slightly, about to speak.

But just then, Mu Zhian said again in a gentle voice, “You also have the same personal interface as me, but yours only has one achievement, right?”

“Let me guess… Perhaps you not only have the Nine-Tailed Heavenly Fox body, but also the Sword Immortal Protection, the Innate Spiritual Body, the Innate Dao Body… Maybe you even have the Heavenly Court Lord achievement?”

Mu Zhian continued, “I have all the constitutions and techniques that Yao Meng, Ruoxi, and the others possess. And your personal interface is completely blank, nothing at all.”

“But you have me.”

Mu Zhian’s voice softened, “I think the only achievement on your personal interface should be related to me, right?”

…
