The Mu family's foremost wastrel is reborn from nirvana and returns, causing heaven and earth to change color and the entire world to be rewritten. Heavenly treasures, hidden riches, and divine...
To be honest, the two of them were just seniors with more experience. In terms of strength, they were not much stronger than Kong Renhe, otherwise they wouldn't still be staying in the Temple of Life at such an old age. Kong Renhe couldn't do anything to Mu Hanyan, so of course they were helpless too.
Of course, they themselves would definitely not admit this. After all, they were the previous high priests, and they still had to give face to their elders.
"I didn't expect this girl to have such means. It's a pity that we are too senior. If we act rashly, it would be like bullying the weak. Otherwise, if we act personally, we wouldn't be afraid that she would not hand over those five-colored soul beads." Yang Wencheng sighed and said arrogantly.
"Yes, fame is tiring." Qiu Yongcheng also echoed.
Hearing what they said, Guan Xiujin almost burst into a rage. "What a humiliating reputation! You're a shaman and a ritualist, don't I know your own strengths? You're not even a step ahead of me in terms of strength. I don't know how many cultivation resources you've wasted over the past few hundred years, yet you haven't even improved a bit, and yet you still have the nerve to brag about yourself."
If you hadn't wasted so many five-colored soul beads over the years and hadn't been so persistent as to pester me like starving ghosts as soon as I went out, would I have been forced into this state?
Of course, I only dared to curse in my heart, and I didn't dare say these words out loud.
"Are you going to just let it go?" Yang Wensheng took a sip of tea and continued asking.
"This batch of five-colored soul beads is related to the rise and fall of my Life Temple for a thousand years, so we naturally can't just let it go like this. Qingyun has already gone to Huayu City and will definitely be able to persuade Mu Hanyan to hand over the five-colored soul beads." Guan Xiujin said.
"Are you talking about Guan Qingyun?" Yang Wensheng asked.
"It's my son. He's been cultivating and training in Lesser God Heaven since he was a child. Master Dou Nanshan, one of the Twelve Divine Blessing Priests, has a keen eye for talent and has accepted him as his disciple," Guan Xiujin said proudly. After being scolded like a dog by the two old men for a long time, the mention of his precious son finally gave him a chance to show off.
"Lord Dou Nanshan!" Yang and Qiu were shocked at the same time.
To say that they are of high seniority and experience is only true in the Temple of Life. How can they be qualified to be compared with Dou Nanshan, one of the Twelve Blessed Priests, who is a powerful senior whom even they can only look up to.
"Qingyun is indeed a man of extraordinary talent. It is rare that he has such an opportunity. Now that he has come forward, we don't have to worry." When Yang and Qiu heard that Guan Qingyun's master was Dou Nanshan, their tone softened and they nodded and smiled.
They didn't ask Guan Qingyun what method he was going to use to persuade Mu Hanyan. In their opinion, having Dou Nanshan's reputation was enough.
However, they didn't ask, but Guan Xiu Jin's heart, eager to show off, was agitated.
"To be honest, Mu Hanyan has quite good talent. At such a young age, she has already reached the level of a Divine Heart Priest and even became the Chief Priest of Huayu City. I heard that under her leadership, Huayu City, which had been in decline for many years, has risen again, and its prosperity is no less than that of other lower-level temples.
"Qingyun had met her a few times before and had a soft spot for her, wanting to marry her. This trip to Huayu City was partly for public and partly for personal matters," Guan Xiujin said complacently, stroking his long beard.
"So that's how it is. Then we would like to congratulate the High Priest." Yang Qiu and the others bowed and said.
It turns out that in addition to Dou Nanshan's background, there is also this relationship between Guan Qingyun and Mu Hanyan. At this moment, they are really relieved. Once a woman gets married, even the person belongs to someone else, let alone the five-colored soul bead.
These people all have beautiful ideas, but soon they become less beautiful.
"Master Chief Priest, the young master is back." At this time, a young priest came in to report.
"Let him in quickly." Guan Xiu Jin was overjoyed and said quickly.
He has been scolded badly by Yang and Qiu these days. He is looking forward to Guan Qingyun's early return day and night to help him escape from his suffering.
Soon, Guan Qingyun brought the young servant in green clothes into the main hall. He should have returned long ago, but he had made such a boast in front of his father, but when he arrived in Huayu City, things didn't go as planned. He even made a mess and felt embarrassed. It took him many days to return to the Temple of Life.
"Qingyun greets father and all the gentlemen." Guan Qingyun bowed listlessly and saluted Guan Xiujing and others.
"Qingyun, come and meet your Grandpa Yang and Grandpa Qiu. They are the former prayer priest and soul-resting priest of my Temple of Life respectively. You must not be impolite." Guan Xiujin did not notice that Guan Qingyun was in poor condition, and pulled Guan Qingyun to Yang Wensheng and Qiu Yongcheng.
Even though Guan Qingyun has Dou Nanshan's background, it is not easy for him to inherit his position as the chief priest. Just like the positions of the chief priests of the lower-level temples are basically nominated by their own priests, and it is difficult for him to intervene, who will sit on the position of the chief priest of the Temple of Life is not something Dou Nanshan can decide, and it is more of the will of the priests of the Temple of Life itself.
Although Yang and Qiu were not very powerful, their seniority and status were there. If Guan Qingyun could win their favor, the resistance to ascending to the position of chief priest in the future would be much smaller. This was one of the reasons why he had tolerated them before.
How did these two old guys come out of seclusion? Guan Qingyun had heard of them and murmured secretly, but he did not act rudely and bowed and said, "Junior Guan Qingyun, meet Grandpa Yang and Grandpa Qiu."
"No need to be so polite, no need to be so polite. You are indeed a handsome man. Not bad, not bad." Knowing Guan Qingyun's master, Yang and Qiu did not act arrogantly and spoke politely.
"By the way, I heard that you went to the Huayu Temple. Did everything go well? Those batches of five-colored soul beads are coming back, right?" Yang Wensheng asked impatiently soon.
The idea of a divinely blessed priest or Dou Nanshan seemed too far away to them. Their biggest concern was the batch of multicolored soul beads. After all, they were already quite old, and their final days were drawing near. If they couldn't break through and become divine soul priests, they might die one day.
"Qingyun, quickly take out those five-colored soul beads and show them to the two adults, so that they can feel at ease." Guan Xiujin urged.
This is a great opportunity for Guan Qingyun to make a name for himself. As long as he can make these two old guys happy, it will be natural for him to be supported to take the position of chief priest in the future. No one dares to say anything behind his back.
"Yes, yes, yes, quickly take out those five-colored soul beads and let the two adults see them, so that we can rest assured." The other priests also followed suit.
There are only a few colorful soul beads left from the Temple of Life thousands of years ago. Everyone has been saving money during this period, and some people below have begun to feel dissatisfied. So not only Guan Xiujing is worried, but all the high priests present are also worried. All their hopes are placed on Guan Qingyun.
