Tan Taixuan was also stunned. He originally wanted to show off in front of Mu Hanyan, but she hit him on the head with a club. The little confidence he had just recovered was hit hard again.
This is no wonder. Ever since he saw the strength of Master Mu Hanyan in Fangjia Town, he no longer had the same sense of superiority in front of Mu Hanyan, and always felt insecure.
"Mu Hanyan, although we have had some conflicts in the past, this time I have been ordered to come to assist An Yun. I will definitely put aside the past grudges and work closely with you and the other young masters to fight against the strange beasts." Tan Taixuan suppressed his anger and said in a righteous manner.
Everyone was shocked again after hearing his words. They had thought that with Tan Taixuan's status, he would be furious at Mu Hanyan's disrespect, but he was so polite, as if he was deeply afraid of Mu Hanyan.
Is this number one playboy in the capital really so powerful that even the dignified deacon of the Holy Court dare not offend her?
Mu Renda and the others behind Mu Hanyan also thought of this, and their gazes towards Mu Hanyan changed completely. If they had previously been more respectful and polite to her because of her status as the young master of the clan, now they began to re-evaluate Mu Hanyan's strength.
After all, this is the Holy Court Continent where the strong are respected. The only thing that can make the dignified Holy Court deacons so fearful is strength.
"It would be best if you think so." Mu Hanyan said calmly.
"Mu Hanyan, don't be shameless. Although you are stronger than me, can the other descendants of your Mu family withstand those strange beasts?" Seeing that Mu Hanyan still had that indifferent look, Tan Taixuan finally got angry and spoke in a voice transmission.
"Oh, then what do you want? Tell me the conditions." Mu Hanyan didn't think that Tan Taixuan would cooperate with her sincerely. She had already made up her mind and asked by gathering her energy and transmitting the message.
"The condition is still the same. As long as you hand over Fangjia Town and the Sword Heart Soul Cleansing Pool to me, I will do my best to help your Mu family." said Tan Taixuan.
"I'm sorry, I won't agree to this condition." Mu Hanyan had guessed that this would be the request and refused without hesitation.
As their strength increased, the swords of Hua Yue and the others could no longer exert their strongest power. Mu Hanyan had already started forging new swords for them, but due to limited time, it was difficult for her to forge a divine sword with spiritual consciousness. At best, it could only be considered a semi-finished product.
She had originally planned to throw those semi-finished products into the Sword Heart Soul Cleansing Pool after returning to Anyun, which was under the strict supervision of Qu Shanling and others. However, she was reminded by him that she had moved the Sword Heart Soul Cleansing Pool into the Star Disk Space. At this time, those long swords were lying in the pool waiting to be transformed into divine swords.
Furthermore, as long as the Sword Heart Soul Cleansing Pool existed, she could provide the Mu clan with an endless supply of fine swords. Even if they weren't as good as her Frost Sky Sword, they were still far superior to any so-called divine weapons. It could be said that the Sword Heart Soul Cleansing Pool was one of the greatest guarantees of the Mu clan's long-term prosperity. How could she possibly give such a treasure to anyone else?
"Okay, okay, Mu Hanyan, since you are so unkind, don't blame me for being ruthless." Tan Taixuan now has some understanding of Mu Hanyan's temperament. Hearing her speak so firmly, he knew that there was no room for negotiation on this matter, so he said angrily and coldly.
When the others saw the two men standing facing each other without making any sound, they knew that they were gathering their energy to transmit their thoughts, and they were all curious about what they were talking about.
At this moment, Tan Taixuan suddenly turned around and said, "We are going to Luo'an City with a large number of people this time. I am afraid that it will be inconvenient to deploy them. In my opinion, it would be better to divide them into two teams, one led by me and the other by Young Master Mu. That way, if any danger or crisis arises, we can support each other. What do you think?"
"Everything will be arranged by Lord Tan Tai." The others looked at Tan Tai Xuan in confusion, not knowing what he was up to, but it was not easy to go against him, so they responded.
"I'm not very familiar with the major families in Anyun. Let's put it this way. Everyone can choose freely whether they want to join my team, Tan Taixuan, or Mu Hanyan's team. What do you think?" Tan Taixuan continued.
Even a fool would know what he was planning. He must have had a disagreement with Mu Hanyan, and this was clearly a way to teach Mu Hanyan a lesson.
"Lord Tan Tai is a talented young man. I, Changsun Yian, sincerely submit to you and will obey your orders." As soon as Changsun Yian finished speaking, he was the first to stand behind Tan Tai Xuan, and the other children of the Changsun family followed.
"My Mo family and the Changsun family have been friends for generations. Even if Brother Changsun follows Lord Tan Tai, my Mo family will be no exception." After Mo Yanhong said this, he also brought the Mo family members to stand behind Tan Tai Xuan.
Mu Hanyan glanced at Mo Yanhong. The Mo family's patriarch's close relationship with the Mu clan was no secret in the capital, and Mo Yanhong knew it all too well, yet he chose to go against her. It seemed the patriarch had taken Mo Yanlin to seek medical treatment and had likely not returned yet. Mo Yanhong probably knew that once Mo Yanlin cured his strange illness and returned to the capital, the position of Young Patriarch would be irrelevant to him. So, he was gambled everything on this rare opportunity to establish his position within the Mo family.
As long as he makes contributions in Luoan City and helps the Mo family rank higher among the eight great families, even the ancestor of the Mo family would not let him give up his position.
Of course, there would also be a chance if he followed Mu Hanyan, but given the hatred between him and Mu Hanyan, he would wish she died in Luoan City, so how could he possibly build momentum for her? Moreover, judging from the current situation, it seemed that following Dan Taixuan and making things difficult for Mu Hanyan was a better choice.
"I, Song Yu, am also willing to follow Lord Tan Tai." Song Yu also stood behind Tan Tai Xuan with the children of his clan.
Soon, five young masters announced their intention to follow Tan Tai Xuan. Adding the children of their respective clans and the wealthy families already dependent on them, more than half the people in the garden had already lined up behind Tan Tai Xuan. Besides Mu Hanyan's own people, the only outsider who remained was Zhang Chihua.
Mu Chengqi was so anxious that he broke out in cold sweats. Of course, he also saw through Tan Taixuan's intention. If this continued, everyone would probably follow Tan Taixuan, saying that they were helping each other. But when the crisis really came, it would be strange if they were willing to come to the rescue. It would be strange if the Mu family members were not completely wiped out.
"Mu Hanyan, what did you say to him just now? Hurry up and apologize to him. Don't keep making trouble like this." Mu Chengqi was anxious and worried. He felt even more resentful towards Mu Hanyan and said bluntly.
