Mu Hanyan's gaze shifted to Jiang Qiling. She was probably the only one present who harbored hostility towards her and had such ulterior motives. Qiu Zizhong hated her to the core, but judging by his previous behavior, his brain wasn't quite working that well.
Jiang Qiling just happened to turn her head to look at Mu Hanyan. They exchanged glances and revealed an undisguised sneer on her face.
Mu Hanyan's lips curled up slightly. Jiang Qiling spread the news so quickly, attracting a group of academy disciples to watch. It was simply because she was afraid that she would change her mind and wanted to force her into a difficult situation. By the way, she could also use their sarcasm to disrupt her mood.
It turns out that he is very scheming and calculating.
But unfortunately, she underestimated Mu Hanyan. Miss Mu's decision was not something that could be easily changed.
Moreover, since she dared to enter the Beast Soul Hall for the trial, even if she was not 100% sure of success, she at least had the confidence to escape unscathed. How could she be upset by the sarcasm of a few bystanders?
You know, the eldest daughter in the past lived with the reputation of being useless for more than ten years. If she didn't even have this kind of psychological endurance, she would have hanged herself countless times.
"Idiot, do you think I'm you?" Mu Hanyan mouthed a silent, mocking smile to Jiang Qiling, her brows light and carefree. Seeing Jiang Qiling's expression change, the curve of Mu Hanyan's mouth widened. She's so happy with this little trick. Did I overestimate her before? Mu Hanyan pondered seriously.
"Lord Qin, I'm ready." Mu Hanyan said to Palace Master Qin.
With the beast language and the beast god contract in Hai's mind, Mu Hanyan couldn't calm down at all. She had been pretending just to avoid offending Palace Master Qin's kindness, but now that everything was in chaos, she was too lazy to pretend anymore.
"Okay, then you should be more careful." Palace Master Qin glared at the academy disciples who were talking at once and made a series of hand gestures.
A flash of light passed by, and the door of the Beast Soul Hall slowly opened.
A solemn and dignified atmosphere came over them, mixed with the powerful pressure of the beast soul. Even those academy disciples who were still sneering and mocking shut their mouths, their expressions became extremely serious, and the atmosphere became extremely dignified.
"Hanyan, be careful." Although Huayue and others had absolute confidence in Mu Hanyan, they were still inexplicably nervous due to the influence of the atmosphere and said to Mu Hanyan solemnly.
"Don't worry so much, just wait for my good news." Mu Hanyan smiled and said easily.
Looking at Mu Hanyan's heartless smile, Tan Yu and the brothers Yushu Linfeng couldn't help but feel a bit of admiration in their hearts.
They have been in Longyan College for nearly ten years, and this is not the first time they have seen people participating in the trial of the Beast Soul Valley. Most of them are masters at the level of Great Swordsman, and some are even masters at the level of Sword Saint. However, no matter their strength, they all look nervous before entering the hall, some are so nervous that they can't even speak. No one is as relaxed and calm as Mu Hanyan.
No wonder he was chosen by Lord Gong and accepted as his disciple. Not to mention his talent or strength, just his courage, I'm afraid even those masters at the level of great swordsmen cannot compare with him.
Not to mention them, even those academy disciples who had been sneering at her before couldn't help but admire her: Call her arrogant or ignorant of her own danger, no matter what, this Mu Hanyan was truly courageous and unexpectedly thick-skinned.
Jiang Qiling's expression became increasingly gloomy. When she saw the calm and composed smile on Mu Hanyan's face, she knew that she had miscalculated again. Mu Hanyan's character was much more stable than she had imagined.
More importantly, her ease was definitely not a deliberate pretense. It seemed as if she really didn't take the temple guardian beast spirit seriously. Could it be that she was so convinced that she could succeed in the challenge? Where did her confidence come from?
This opponent seems to be much stronger than I imagined!
Mu Hanyan certainly had no idea what others were thinking. She walked into the hall with firm steps.
"Boom", the palace door behind him closed heavily, and Mu Hanyan fell into darkness, but soon, a starlight shot down from the top of his head, and the light returned to his eyes.
This Beast Soul Hall is much larger than it appears from the outside. It is a hundred feet square and appears unusually empty.
The surrounding stone walls are ancient and dilapidated, as if they have been eroded by hundreds of thousands of years. However, the patterns and symbols carved on them are still clearly visible, exquisite and mysterious, and they faintly release the power of sealing.
This should be the sealing formation of the Soul-Suppressing Hall. This ancient hall has stood firm for hundreds of thousands of years, and it has imprisoned the powerful beast soul inside thanks to this sealing formation.
If it were in the past, Mu Hanyan might have sat down and carefully pondered it, but now, she didn't have the leisure time.
A hazy beast shadow was lying three feet in front of Mu Hanyan, staring at her fiercely, its eyes filled with intense hatred and, it seemed, a strong sense of fear.
Mu Hanyan did not dare to be careless. Holding the hilt of the sword, she stared at the beast shadow. Although the beast was illusory and hazy, and it was impossible to identify what kind of divine beast or ferocious beast its residual soul was, Mu Hanyan could feel the strong pressure released from it. This pressure was more than ten times stronger than the one felt outside the hall.
If it were someone else, even if their strength was the same as Mu Hanyan's, they would probably be frightened and lose their will to fight under the pressure. However, Mu Hanyan's determination was far superior to that of ordinary people, and this was not the first time she had experienced such pressure, so the impact was not that great.
The man and the beast stared at each other, feeling wary of each other, and neither of them took the initiative to attack.
Mu Hanyan originally thought that by entering the Beast Soul Hall, she would be able to reopen the memories left by the Aolai divine beast. However, now that the hall's guardian beast soul was right in front of her, the dormant memories showed no reaction. Only the vast psychic beast language still echoed in her ears in a chaotic manner, and the beast god contracts still appeared in her mind from time to time.
What should I do? Mu Hanyan was at a loss.
"No, no, you are not him (her)! But why do you have his (her) aura?" Finally, the beast shadow spoke, but in human language.
"What are you talking about?" Mu Hanyan looked at the beast soul in confusion.
"I understand, you are his (her) descendant!" The beast soul opened its big eyes like copper bells, looked up and down at Mu Hanyan, and suddenly said.
"What successor? Who are you talking about?" Mu Hanyan asked.
"Hahahaha, a million years, a million years have passed, and I actually met his (her) descendant." The beast soul laughed wildly.
(A million years, the long river of time, flows silently, Ye Lanxuan has been searching for a million years, just for her. Ye Lanxuan: I beg all the lovely ladies to vote for me, so that Bai Tian will have mercy on me. I have been searching for a million years, can I end my pursuit of my wife and bring her home?)
