"It sounds reasonable." Mu Hanyan said after thinking for a while.
After all, nearly a million years have passed, and the sealing barrier between the two continents is bound to be damaged, and it always needs someone to support and maintain it. It is also a fact that the strength of the mainland practitioners is far less than before. In comparison, the descendants of the guardian of God with awakened blood will be superior to ordinary practitioners in terms of practice speed and future achievements.
"That makes sense, but it's a bit unbelievable that none of those people taken away by the Holy See nearly ten thousand years ago have come back." Lu Nianxin said.
"Then they didn't ask any further questions?" Mu Hanyan said.
"Of course I asked. It is said that some people died in accidents, and some were obsessed with cultivation and became disillusioned with the world and were unwilling to return to the secular world. Do you think it is reasonable?" Lu Nianxin asked.
Mu Hanyan shook her head. Although according to her grandfather, there were very few people like her who had fully awakened their bloodline before the age of sixteen, and it could even be said that it only happened once in a million years, but as far as Mu Hanyan knew, she was not the only such person, Jiang Qiling was also one of them.
In comparison, it is much easier to awaken the bloodline after the age of sixteen. In ten thousand years, who knows how many people have awakened their bloodlines and then been taken away by the Holy Court. Even if someone had an accident, it is impossible for all the remaining people to become disillusioned with the world. How is it possible that no one came back?
"In addition to this incident, there is another matter that makes the royal families of various countries deeply uneasy." Lu Nianxin was silent for a moment and then continued to ask.
"What's up?"
"Among those whose bloodlines awakened, in addition to those taken away by the Holy Court, some remained in various countries, but none of them could achieve great things. They all died accidentally, either from poisoning or assassination. Your Mu family ancestor, Mu Tianlie, was one of them." Lu Nianxin said.
"Do you suspect that it was the Holy Court's doing?" Mu Hanyan's heart trembled.
"Logically, we should be suspicious of the Temple, but the Holy Court Continent is restricted by the laws, and the strength of the cultivators is far less than before. The same is true for the Temple. Moreover, the strength of the Temple masters who come to the Holy Court Continent will be suppressed, so it is not that easy to kill them.
"The most important thing is, the Holy Court has ruled the continent for so many years, how could they allow the Temple to attack them again and again? How could they not take any precautions? Even if it wasn't the Holy Court's fault, but it was the Temple that did it, the Holy Court would still be suspected of condoning it," Lu Nianxin said in a deep voice.
"But why would the Holy Court do this?" Hearing this, Mu Hanyan felt a chill in her heart.
"You ask me, but who should I ask? Perhaps, they are dissatisfied with the various countries on the continent and want to replace them and directly rule the continent, so they are trying every possible way to weaken the strength of each country. Perhaps, there are other reasons. Perhaps, all this is just our unfounded speculation. Everything the Holy Court does is to maintain peace on the continent.
"But no matter what, after discovering these things, the countries on the mainland have become wary of the Holy Court. You must also be careful and vigilant, and never take the Holy Court lightly." Lu Nianxin said earnestly.
"Yeah." Mu Hanyan nodded, but her mood was a little complicated.
If grandma's guess is true, the Holy Court is indeed dissatisfied with the countries on the mainland and wants to replace them and rule the continent itself, then what role does Ye Lanxuan play in it?
If one day the countries on the continent really go to war with the Holy See, will she and Ye Lanxuan be friends or enemies?
In front of Mu Hanyan's eyes, Ye Lanxun's handsome face appeared again, and his elegant figure standing in front of her appeared again, so detached and otherworldly, yet so firm and persistent, like a mountain that would always stand proudly, protecting her from wind and rain.
Mu Hanyan suddenly felt relieved and understood. No matter what the Holy Court's intentions were, no matter what they would do in the future, Ye Lanxun would still be Ye Lanxun, and that would never change.
No matter what happens in the future, he will still stand by her side and in front of her like before, and will never let her get hurt.
"What are you thinking about? Why are you laughing so happily?" Lu Nianxin asked with a smile.
"Ah... no, I didn't think anything." Although Mu Hanyan was free and easy, she was still a little embarrassed in front of her grandmother.
"My precious granddaughter has grown up and must have found her lover. I'll bring her back to let grandma see her someday." Lu Nianxin said with a smile.
Seeing her grandmother's meaningful smile, Mu Hanyan blushed even more. She had been dressed as a boy since she was little, and even though her parents loved her dearly, they rarely had time to be close to her. This was the first time she had been teased by an elder like this.
"Grandma, if that strange forbidden technique was really done by someone from the Holy Court, I have a friend who happens to be from the Holy Court. I can ask him to help you take a look." Mu Hanyan quickly changed the subject.
"Oh, is that the one you love?" The gossip fire burned in grandma's eyes.
Mu Hanyan felt powerless. After all, you are the mother of a country. How can you be so gossipy?
"If it was done by someone from the temple, I have a friend from the temple who might be able to help." Mu Hanyan continued to change the subject.
Of course, she was talking about Fen Qianji. From his confident tone last time, it seemed that Fen Qianji's status in the temple was no less than Ye Lanxun's in the Holy Court. If the strange forbidden spell that had hit her grandmother was caused by the temple, he would definitely be able to help.
"Two lovers?" Grandma opened her mouth, and the gossip fire in her eyes burned even more fiercely.
Mu Hanyan almost stumbled and fell to the ground: Grandma, can you be a little more gossipy?
"Alright, alright, I won't tease you anymore." Seeing Mu Hanyan's helpless look, Lu Nianxin stopped teasing her and said seriously, "My body is fine, I can still hold on. I'll slowly figure out a way. But you must not be careless about the Jianyin Academy competition.
In addition to being the hereditary King, Wu Tianxiong also holds another title: the Dean of Jianyin Academy. He set the rules for this competition, and he will never let you easily obtain the Destiny Star Plate.
"Grandma, I understand. I will be careful." Mu Hanyan said solemnly.
She didn't know that Wu Tianxiong had this identity. He had always harbored ambitions for the throne of Shangyue, and his only beloved son was injured in her hands. Even if he was barely healed, there would be no way for him to improve his cultivation at all. His life would be completely ruined. And she happened to be a descendant of the Yue family.
Whether for his ambition or to avenge Wu Ziyue, he would never let himself get the Destiny Star Plate.
"It's a good thing to be careful, but there's no need to be too nervous. Although there are many talented people in Jianyin Academy's competition this time, and Xiqin and Beiqi will also send people to participate, it is not difficult to defeat them with your strength. There is only one person, so you have to be especially careful." Lu Nianxin continued.
