During the trip to Luoan City, the Changsun, Song, Qu, and Mo families suffered heavy losses and were seriously injured. However, the Mu, Yan, and He families, under the leadership of Mu Hanyan, not only did they not lose a single person, but each of them also had a sword pet, and their strength increased exponentially. Although the Fang family suffered some losses at the beginning, they took action in time at the last moment. They did not save Mu Hanyan, but saved themselves and preserved a lot of strength. The Zhang family, which was not originally among the eight great families, took the lead because of their unreserved support for Mu Hanyan.
The new ranking of the eight great families in the capital was a foregone conclusion, with the Mu family undeniably the number one. Furthermore, the masters of various families, led by Emperor An Yun, had escaped disaster thanks to Mu Hanyan's warning. An Yun's strength now far surpassed that of other nations, and this result was unanimously recognized by everyone.
Just two days before Mu Hanyan's departure, the Emperor presided over a palace banquet, entertaining the various prominent families of Anyun. This banquet officially confirmed the Mu family's position as the leader of the Eight Great Families, with the Zhang family replacing the Mo family. However, Mu Hanyan, wanting only to spend more time with her family, had no interest in the banquet and was too lazy to even attend.
Those young people were indeed descendants of several other major families. Although they had never met Mu Hanyan, they had long heard of her name. From the number one playboy in Black Stone City to the number one playboy in Longyan College, and then to the young master of the number one family in Anyun, Mu Hanyan had given birth to too many miracles, and could even be called a legend. No matter which family the young descendants were from, they all regarded her as an idol.
The sword pets that Mu Hanyan tamed for the children of aristocratic families at Beining Pass made everyone envious. They wished they could get closer to her so that such a good thing would happen to them one day.
"Hmph, as a descendant of God's guardian, you are so servile." At this moment, a disdainful snort sounded behind him.
The expressions of those young men changed slightly, and they were about to get angry, but when they saw the person coming, they suppressed their anger.
"Zhao Sining!" Mu Hanyan turned her head, saw who it was, and frowned slightly.
The person who came was Zhao Sining, who was bewitched by Zhao Lingxian and was always against him.
At that time, Zhao Sining, an elite student at Zhengying Academy, had caught the eye of the Zhao family patriarch, and Zhao Lingxian, willing to sacrifice her beauty to exploit him, was a shame. Unfortunately, this guy was just a name for show, his true strength only a fifth-rank swordsman, and his brain wasn't particularly sharp. Every time he thought he had divined the mysteries of the universe, he was always thwarted by Mu Hanyan. If it weren't for the alchemical artifact given to him by Pang Dezong, he would have been tortured to death countless times by Mu Hanyan.
Mu Hanyan had never taken this guy's intelligence and strength seriously, but when she saw him again today, she discovered that Zhao Sining had changed a lot and was completely different from before.
He was full of murderous and bloody aura. Mu Hanyan even had an illusion that the person standing in front of her was not a human, but a ferocious and bloodthirsty beast.
Yes, it is wild beasts, not strange beasts, because strange beasts are too intelligent and know how to avoid danger and seek good fortune just like humans, but wild beasts do not understand these things and can only kill instinctively.
"Mu Hanyan, you didn't expect that my bloodline has also awakened, and I am also the guardian of God, hahahaha." Zhao Sining laughed wildly.
In fact, even if the bloodline is awakened, it cannot be regarded as the true protection of God, because the awakening of bloodline does not necessarily mean that one can comprehend the innate magical powers. Even if one comprehends them, it may not necessarily comprehend powerful and useful innate magical powers. The strength is still far from those legendary protections of God.
But no matter what, as long as their bloodline is awakened, their future achievements are destined to surpass those of ordinary practitioners, so many people still directly call them the guardians of God. Many self-righteous guys like Zhao Sining even call themselves the guardians of God.
"Is it a big deal to have your bloodline awakened? Who here hasn't awakened? What are you laughing at?" Ye Yanran said disapprovingly. She had no good feelings towards this ignorant and arrogant guy.
"For you, bloodline awakening is certainly nothing great, but do you think you can be the same as me?" Zhao Sining looked at Ye Yanran with contempt and sneered.
"Mu Hanyan, you caused Lingxian's family to be destroyed and forced to flee far away. I will never coexist with you. One day, I will kill you with my own hands and let Lingxian come back to me." After saying that, Zhao Sining no longer looked at Ye Yanran, but looked at Mu Hanyan and said gritting his teeth.
"Zhao Lingxian is dead." Mu Hanyan said calmly.
With the death of Zhao Lingxian, all the hatred also disappeared. Mu Hanyan did not want to hide her death from Zhao Sining. No matter what Zhao Sining's character was, whether he was a good person or a bad person, and no matter how Zhao Lingxian used him in the past, no matter what, Zhao Sining had true feelings for her, otherwise he would not have been thinking about her until now.
"What!" Zhao Sining's whole body was shocked, and he looked like he had lost his soul.
"Zhao Lingxian is dead." Mu Hanyan repeated.
"Impossible, impossible, it must be you who killed her, right, it was you who killed her!" Zhao Sining suddenly woke up as if from a dream and roared madly.
"Although she begged me to do it, you are right. I did kill her with my own hands." Mu Hanyan said frankly.
She would not deny that she was the one who killed Zhao Lingxian, but since Zhao Lingxian had asked her for help and she did not kill out of hatred, she would not throw dirty water on herself.
"Hahahaha, Lingxian would ask you to kill her, do you think I'm an idiot? She hates you to the core. Even if she wants to die, how could she ask you to do it?" Zhao Sining laughed loudly, but his laughter was uglier than crying, and his face was full of hatred and anger.
"If you don't believe me, there's nothing I can do." Mu Hanyan had already said everything she needed to say, but she didn't bother explaining anything further to Zhao Sining. He wouldn't believe her anyway. Mu Hanyan acted with a clear conscience, but she was definitely not pedantic.
"You killed Lingxian, I want to avenge her, I want to kill you, kill you!" Zhao Sining roared with a sad face.
"Are you an idiot? Zhao Lingxian was harmed to the point where she was half human, half ghost, and that's why she begged Han Yan to kill her. You should obviously thank Han Yan." Ye Yanran said indignantly.
"You are in the same group, of course you will speak in her favor. Do you think I will believe such words?" How could Zhao Si Ning believe Ye Yanran's words? He suddenly drew out his long sword and pointed it at Mu Hanyan, "Mu Hanyan, draw your sword, I will kill you now!"
In an instant, a bloodthirsty red light flashed in his eyes, and his face became distorted and ferocious. The murderous intent in his eyes made even Mu Hanyan feel a slight chill in her heart.
Hua Yue and the others moved their feet and protected Mu Hanyan, while quietly making sword moves in their hands.
They felt an instinctive threat from Zhao Sining.
