"I will kill you!" Sure enough, after hearing Mu Hanyan's sarcastic words, Longya became even more furious. While roaring angrily, he quickly made a series of hand gestures.
A strange force spread out in the surroundings!
"Longya, stop!" The young man in the lead changed his expression and shouted sternly.
"Stop it!" another man shouted in panic.
"I want to kill him, I want to kill him." Longya seemed to have lost his mind and shouted madly.
Mu Hanyan shuddered slightly and pressed the hilt of the sword again.
She could feel that as Longya made hand gestures, the strange power became stronger and stronger, and the panicked expressions of the other two also made her feel a sense of crisis.
Hua Yue and the others also noticed something was wrong and gathered together quietly.
Even Ye Lanxuan frowned slightly.
"Longya, stop." At this moment, a calm voice sounded in his ears, and then a young man walked slowly towards him.
"Young Master!" Upon seeing the young man, the two young men were surprised and quickly stood up to salute.
Long Ya, who had already lost his mind and fallen into frenzy, was shocked and instantly woke up. He stopped making hand gestures and stood up respectfully to salute, as if the young man's calm voice contained some kind of magic.
It turns out that he is the master of the three Longya people!
Mu Han couldn't help but look at the young man curiously. He was about sixteen or seventeen years old, similar to Mu Hanyan, with a handsome face, but with a certain coldness and calmness that did not match his age.
Although the swordsman's outfit was simple in style, it fit him well and even gave him a sense of luxury.
This person must be from a very important background.
Just as Mu Hanyan was looking at him, he was also looking at Mu Hanyan.
"It was you who injured Longya?" After a moment, the young man asked Mu Hanyan.
The voice was still so calm, yet it seemed to carry a bit of the majesty that only a superior could have.
Everyone around looked at this boy who was only sixteen years old, and for some reason, they felt like submitting to him.
"That's right." However, Mu Hanyan's character was far more resolute than that of ordinary people, so she was not affected at all and answered with a normal expression.
"If I'm not mistaken, he must have hurt someone without reason first, and then said something insulting to Anyun's dignity, which is why you attacked him in anger, right?" the young man continued. He sounded like he was asking Mu Hanyan a question, but his tone gave a direct answer. He was calm and composed, as if everything was under control, and his face was full of confidence.
Mu Hanyan nodded. She was not used to the other party's tone.
"I didn't discipline my subordinates well. This is indeed his fault. I apologize to you on his behalf. Here are some silver coins, which can be considered as compensation for them." The young man looked at the injured guards, bowed deeply, and took out a silver note and handed it to Mu Hanyan.
Everyone around stretched their necks to look at the banknote, and they were all secretly shocked. It was a full one million taels. Many people had never seen a banknote of such a large denomination in their lives.
To be honest, the injuries of those guards were not too serious. Buying some healing pills would cost at most tens of thousands of taels. But this man spent one million taels in one go, which was really generous.
Even though the young man apologized and offered compensation, Mu Hanyan still sensed a deep-seated arrogance emanating from him. It was as if in his eyes, the injured were nothing more than insignificant ants, and the compensation he offered was simply to avoid losing face.
Although such arrogance made Mu Hanyan feel uncomfortable, the other party's words were flawless, and Mu Hanyan could not find any reason to make things difficult for the other party, so she could only accept the banknote.
After all, the other party was holding the diplomatic documents with the dragon seal of Emperor Anyun on them. He was a guest invited by Anyun, so she couldn't just beat him to death or cripple him.
It was not until this moment that Mu Hanyan realized that apart from the initial "not bad" she said, she could not say another word in front of this young man. He was the only one talking.
Even though he acted calm and composed, Mu Hanyan still felt his unquestionable dominance.
Who is this guy?
"Today's matter is concluded here. Remember my name, I'm Yue Fanchen. Perhaps it won't be long before we have a chance to fight. I hope you prepare well and don't let me down." The young man looked at Mu Hanyan again and turned away.
Longya looked at Mu Hanyan hatefully, then followed closely with the other two guards. He looked so respectful, without any trace of his previous arrogance.
"Yue Fanchen, could he be a member of the royal family of Shangyue Kingdom?" Someone exclaimed only after they walked away.
Although Yue Fanchen was young and appeared calm and composed, the aura of a superior was too strong. When he was around, the people around him didn't dare to make a sound. It was not until this moment that they were suddenly awakened.
Mu Hanyan suddenly realized that the surname Yue was the surname of the Shangyue Kingdom. While it wasn't just the royal family that could bear this surname, how could someone with such strength and bearing, and carrying diplomatic documents, possibly be a commoner? Mu Hanyan was certain that Yue Fanchen was a descendant of the Shangyue Kingdom's royal family.
The Shangyue Kingdom's royal family founded their nation on military power, and their descendants throughout the generations have all possessed remarkable cultivation. Throughout history, many renowned masters across the continent also hail from the Shangyue royal family. Although Yue Fanchen hadn't been seen in action, his young age, coupled with his ability to represent the Shangyue Kingdom on a diplomatic mission to Anyun, clearly showed his considerable strength.
Mu Hanyan once again recalled what Yue Fanchen said before he left. Although he said "maybe", judging from his speaking style, it was clearly a challenge.
Mu Hanyan had previously thought this man had a clear sense of right and wrong, but now she understood that, while he was certainly discerning, he was also just as protective of his own shortcomings as she was. He hadn't fought her today simply because he knew he was in the wrong and didn't want to lose the dignity of the Shangyue royal family and give her a reason to criticize him.
If there is an opportunity in the future, there will be a battle between him and me.
Thinking of Longya's interrupted hand seal and that strange power, Mu Hanyan's expression became serious, but soon, a strong desire to fight surged in her heart again.
Compared to her previous life, her strength had increased too quickly, but her experience was somewhat lacking. It was time to find someone to fight her properly. An opponent like this should be worth her all-out effort.
It was not until the figures of Yue Fanchen and his companions completely disappeared that cheers were heard again all around.
If before, when people heard of Mu Hanyan's reputation as a dandy, they only thought that he relied on his family background to bully the weak and fear the strong, and were somewhat disdainful of him, then now, when they looked at Mu Hanyan, there was no longer any disdain in their eyes, but full respect and admiration.
