Seeing the two of them lying on the chairs and patting their bellies contentedly, Mu Hanyan finally breathed a sigh of relief. Seeing their posture just now, she was really worried that they would eat up all the plates.

"Waiter, let's get the bill." Ling Baobao shouted at the top of his voice while picking his teeth.

"Here I come!" A waiter ran over quickly.

"Lord Mu, Miss Mu, I'm sorry. I should have treated you to this meal, but I don't have that much silver on me. I'll host a banquet for you when we return to the Huayu Temple." Sikong Qinglan said embarrassedly.

"It's okay, it's just a meal." Ling Baobao threw a large ingot of silver and stood up and said carelessly.

Although this guy has a bad character of cheating and deceiving people, he is a very straightforward person.

Sikong Qinglan smiled bitterly and said nothing more.

Afterwards, several people left the restaurant.

Looking at the slightly thin figure of Sikong Qinglan in front of her, Mu Hanyan was lost in thought. It seemed that this Sikong priest was not just frugal, but poor, really poor.

"Senior Ye, what is going on with the Huayu Temple?" Mu Hanyan said impatiently as the carriage drove out of the city.

Sikong Qinglan's battered oxcart, patched up with patches, wasn't even as good as Mu Tu's sleek robes. And his embarrassed look, cash-strapped, truly baffled her. A dignified temple priest, and a prayer priest at that, couldn't possibly be this broke.

The carriage had already driven out of the city and was covered with a thick cowhide felt, so there was no need to worry about Sikong Qinglan hearing it.

“To be honest, the Flower Rain Temple is one of the oldest temples in the Continent of Gods. Although it is located in a remote area, its status is extremely transcendent. Throughout history, it has produced many famous and even legendary priests.

However, just over twenty years ago, the Flower Rain Temple had angered the Lord Divine Master and was severely reprimanded. In his rage, the Lord Divine Master nearly demolished the Flower Rain Temple. Although he eventually calmed his anger after being persuaded by other blessed priests and spared the Flower Rain Temple, he also withdrew his ties and left them to fend for themselves.

You have also felt how harsh the living environment is in the Continent of Gods. There is often only one city within a radius of ten thousand miles or even tens of thousands of miles. However, there are two temples within a thousand miles of our Mujia Village. This is because the Huayu Temple is too remote.

In the past, with its transcendent status, the support of the Blessed Priests, and the support of the Main Temple, the Flower Rain Temple had managed to get by. But for the past twenty years, abandoned by the Lord God and left to fend for itself, life has naturally become increasingly difficult. Forget about various cultivation resources, and even filling your stomach is probably a struggle.

This time, Sikong Qinglan asked Fengcheng Temple for help, most likely because he couldn't make ends meet and wanted to ask for their assistance. "Ye Yian had expected Mu Hanyan to ask this, and he sorted out his thoughts and said.

Mu Hanyan then understood why Ye Yian had been so hesitant when Sikong Qinglan had taken the initiative to invite him. It turned out that the situation in the Huayu Temple was so terrible that if she went there, she wouldn't be able to fill her stomach, let alone practice.

"How did they anger the Lord God?" Mu Hanyan asked curiously.

"It is said that it is related to a blessed priest. This blessed priest was born in the Flower Rain Temple. Even his name comes from the temple. He is extremely talented and is known as one of the greatest priests in the temple in the past 100,000 years.

Just over twenty years ago, this blessed priest seemed to have met with an accident and disappeared from sight. It is said that the last place he appeared was the Flower Rain Temple.

"A dignified divinely blessed priest just disappeared without a trace. The Flower Rain Temple is naturally involved, and the Lord God is naturally furious." Ye Yian obviously didn't know much about the inside story. He just heard it from hearsay and added some of his own speculations.

"The blessed priest, born in the Huayu Temple, even his name comes from the name of the temple..." Although Ye Yian's words were unclear, Mu Hanyan was still shocked when she heard his words.

Could it be that the blessed priest he was talking about was Hua Yue's father, Hua Guanyu? Wasn't that the time he defected from the Temple and headed for the Holy Court Continent over twenty years ago? Perhaps the news of a dignified blessed priest's defection from the Temple would be too humiliating, so the Lord God concealed the truth from the world and took his anger out on the Huayu Temple.

The more Mu Hanyan thought about it, the more she felt that her guess was correct, and she felt inexplicably excited.

Unexpectedly, as soon as she arrived at the Continent of Gods, she accidentally stumbled upon the temple where Hua Guanyu was born. Mu Hanyan was somewhat looking forward to this temple that had been abandoned by the Lord God and left to fend for itself.

The carriage drove all the way towards Mujia Village. Because it was being pulled back by Priest Sikong's old carriage... oh no, it was an ox cart, so the speed was even slower than when it came.

Mu Hanyan was practicing martial arts and comprehending the formations she had learned from Fengcheng Temple, but she was not in a hurry.

…

Just as Mu Hanyan and his party returned to Mujia Village, Tianfeng City and the Kang family were shrouded in dark clouds.

Although Chu Yanghe felt deeply ashamed of what happened today and strictly ordered his temple priests not to spread the news, there is no such thing as a wall that is impenetrable, and the news still leaked out.

Hearing that the head of the family had angered the head priest and was severely punished (actually, beaten), all the members of the Kang family were worried. Although the Kang family had produced several priests over the years, Kang Qingyuan was the most powerful. The others were very ordinary and their foundation could not compare with those of the priest families. The reason they were able to gain a place in Tianfeng City was thanks to the trust and support of the head priest.

If the head of the family falls out of favor, the Kang family may have no place to stand in Tianfeng City.

The Kang family members were secretly worried when another piece of bad news came. After the chief priest severely punished Kang Qingyuan, he was still furious and ordered to remove him from the position of prayer priest. At this moment, the despair of the Kang family members can be imagined. Some elders in the clan have even discussed abolishing his position as the head of the family to appease the anger of the chief priest.

"The chief priest is going too far. Grandfather has worked hard and done so many things for him over the years, but he is so ungrateful." In the study, Kang Zihe said angrily.

"Shut up!" Kang Qingyuan shouted harshly. Chu Yanghe had already been angered, and if his private complaints reached his ears, he would probably have no place to stay in Tianfeng City.

"This time, it's my fault for being reckless. I didn't take your words to heart. I didn't expect that the little girl was really a natural born priestess of the gods. I was careless, so careless." Then, Kang Qingyuan sighed again and said.

"Then what should we do now? Just let that bitch Mu Hanyan go?" Kang Zihe asked reluctantly.
