Seeing this, Mu Hanyan sighed inwardly. Just like the eight great Anyun families had sent their young elites to Luo'an City, the powerful men from various countries gathered in the Longyan Mountains, also eager to compete.

After the seal ends, the status of the major families of each nation, and even the royal families of each nation, will be redefined. If the formation truly activates, it will be fine. However, if nothing unexpected happens and they eventually seal the Nine Netherworld Prison once again, the aristocratic families that remain will surely rise to prominence, while those who leave early will be ostracized by all the noble families of each nation, and no matter how vast the Holy Court Continent is, they will probably have no place to stand.

Judging from the expressions on those people's faces, they probably just want someone to leave.

"Well, I won't say much. It's up to you to decide whether to go or stay." What Mu Hanyan could think of, Tian Annan could naturally think of as well. Seeing the changes in everyone's expressions, he had a clue in his mind and said calmly.

As soon as the words fell, someone took a few steps back, keeping a distance from Mu Hanyan, Ye Lanxun and others, and put on a clear posture, obviously unwilling to leave at all.

Seeing their performance, Tian Annan was of course even more proud, and Gong Liyan also showed a knowing smile on his face.

"This concerns the safety of the continent. I think it's better to believe it than not. It's never a bad thing to be cautious." At this moment, an old man walked towards Mu Hanyan.

Everyone was shocked, even Mu Hanyan herself was slightly stunned. This old man was actually the person who was previously called Senior Qing by everyone.

"Mo Qingkuang and I are friends for life and death. I have heard some things about Young Master Mu. I heard that he was able to find the Mo family's Qilin child, and it was all thanks to you." The old man saw Mu Hanyan's confusion and smiled indifferently.

Mu Hanyan finally understood the reason. She didn't know how Mo Qingkuang had mentioned finding Mo Yanlin to her, but she probably praised her astrology skills. But in reality, Mu Hanyan had only just begun her astrology skills at that time. The reason she was able to reveal the secret so clearly was because she had long known that Mo Yanlin had drifted to Fang Village and been taken in by the head of the Fang family.

Mu Hanyan broke into a cold sweat. After talking for so long, others actually believed in her divination skills. If she had known this, she would not have mentioned the Heavenly Secret Mirror and would have directly revealed her identity as a charlatan. Perhaps others would have been more likely to believe her.

"Haha, even Lord Lian Qing trusts Han Yan so much, it's impossible for us family members not to trust her, right?" Mu Beichen and the Supreme Elder also came over with several other elders of the Mu family.

"Old Man Mu finally has some good sense this time. He knows my precious granddaughter wouldn't say anything without thinking. Hahahaha." Lu Nianxin also stepped forward, and of course, she also boasted as usual. She seemed quite satisfied with Mu Beichen's performance this time, and he didn't act like an old bastard.

"It is a blessing for Anyun that the Mu family has such descendants. Others may not trust you, but we, the major families in Anyun, naturally trust you." With a hearty laugh, a dignified old man, leading the people from other major families in Anyun, left the team and walked towards Mu Hanyan.

Mu Hanyan was surprised to see that even the heads of the Yan and He families obeyed his orders.

"This is Emperor An Yun." The elder on the side said softly.

Only then did Mu Hanyan know the identity of this person. She had not expected that the Anyun royal family would make such a big move that even the emperor himself took action. No wonder all the major families obeyed his orders.

Mu Hanyan was about to perform the royal etiquette with him, but was stopped by him.

"I left Anyun many years ago and traveled the world. I'm no longer an emperor. You can just treat me as an ordinary elder. I have received news about the Beining Pass incident. Thanks to you, Beining Pass is safe and sound. Thanks to you, Cheng Yi was able to save his life.

Actually, I had high hopes for Cheng Yi, which is why I sent him to practice cultivation since he was young. I didn't expect him to be anything less than a talent. As soon as he returned to Anyun, he ran into you and lost face. Fortunately, however, it was you who helped him change his ways. The training at Beining Pass has made him improve a lot, and he should be able to become a wise ruler.

In the future, under his leadership, our Anyun Kingdom will be able to enjoy peace and prosperity for a hundred years. All of this is thanks to you. I thank you very much." At this point, the emperor actually bowed to Mu Hanyan.

Mu Hanyan was flattered and quickly helped him up. However, she had not expected that the Anyun Imperial Family had sent the Fifth Prince to Beining Pass to give him more experience. Seeing that the Emperor Retired was interested in him inheriting the throne, she was also happy for him.

Seeing that Senior Lian Qing and Emperor Anyun both had so much trust in Mu Hanyan, the others who had been bewitched by Tian Annan and had made up their minds to stay began to waver again.

Gradually, nearly two hundred people left the team, but the others were determined not to leave.

In the abyss, the roar of the underworld beast became weaker and weaker, and the seal was tightened little by little. The crack in the abyss was less than half a foot wide. It looked like it would only take an hour or two at most for the Nine Netherworld Prison to be sealed again.

However, Mu Hanyan felt more and more uneasy in her heart.

"Let's go!" Mu Hanyan made a quick decision and flew backwards.

Although she failed to persuade everyone to leave as she had hoped, there were still more than 200 people who believed his words, which finally left some hope for the Holy Court Continent.

Soon, everyone retreated to a distance of more than a hundred feet. Judging from the scene seen in the Tianji Mirror, this should be outside the range of the formation.

At this time, the crack in the abyss was only about one foot wide, and was only one step away from being completely sealed.

"Hahahaha, once this seal is completed, we will be famous throughout the ages and praised by people for thousands of generations." With success imminent, Tian Annan laughed wildly and performed hand seals together with other masters of the Holy Court.

"Those idiots, who have lived for hundreds of years and don't even have this much brains, were actually fooled by a little girl liar. Let's see how they will regret it." Gong Liyan glanced at Lu Nianxin in the distance and said sarcastically.

Around him, masters from various countries were also excited.

"Boom" At this moment, a loud sound like a muffled thunder came from under the feet, and the whole earth shook violently and collapsed downwards.

As expected, Mu Hanyan clenched her fists tightly. Her face darkened, and the uneasiness in her heart grew stronger and stronger.

P.S. The annual meeting concluded successfully. I wonder how many people watched the livestream. My trip to Osaka has concluded. My suitcase is packed! I've been eating, shopping, and having fun. I still have so much to do back home. Life is short, so let's enjoy it while we can. I think I gained weight at this meeting. I really need to lose some weight. I'll resume my normal updates after the meeting. Love you all.
