"Forget it, let him go." Mu Hanyan said with a smile.
"Kill you while you're sick" is Miss Mu's consistent principle. However, Wei Xiaotian is not so easy to kill.
She had actually thought of taking advantage of Wei Xiaotian's injury to kill him in one fell swoop to eliminate the trouble forever, but after thinking about it for a while, she gave up the idea.
With An Lihong and several other deacons and these Holy Court disciples present, there was no way they would just watch Wei Xiaotian die at her hands. Although An Lihong and the others weren't as strong as Wei Xiaotian, as deacons, they were quite capable. Even if they couldn't defeat her, escaping with Wei Xiaotian shouldn't be a problem. This was the Holy Court, after all, someone else's territory. The teleportation array that had passed through the numerous restrictions on their arrival showed that the Holy Court had countless defensive formations in place. Once those defensive formations were activated, it was hard to say who would be the winner.
Besides, even if she killed Wei Xiaotian, what would happen? He was a saint, and the Holy Court would never let him go.
Although Wei Xiaotian repeatedly claimed that he was certain that Mu Hanyan was the real murderer who killed Wei Wenshan, he refused to report it to the Holy Court and instead settled the matter privately. This showed that he also knew that the divine consciousness clone left behind by Wei Wenshan could only prove that Wei Wenshan and Mu Hanyan knew each other, but it could not prove that Wei Wenshan died at her hands.
If she killed Wei Xiaotian and made the matter a big deal, and someone investigated, maybe they would find out the truth. There was no such thing as a wall that was impenetrable, and there were bound to be many extraordinary people in the Holy Court. Mu Hanyan didn't want to take any chances.
Anyway, Wei Wenshan had no real evidence and didn't seem to want to make a big fuss about it, so she just pretended to be deaf and dumb.
"I understand." Ye Yanran was a very smart person, and as a thief, she was even more meticulous. She quickly figured out the key.
Killing Wei Xiaotian will not eliminate the trouble forever, but will cause endless trouble.
"But keeping this person will always be a trouble." However, as a female thief, she understood a truth better. If you are not afraid of thieves stealing, you should be afraid of thieves thinking about it, so she said worriedly.
"It's not a big trouble. I think once we enter the mountain gate, he won't dare to act rashly. Otherwise, there would be no need for him to block here." Mu Hanyan said.
She had thought about this a long time ago. Wei Xiaotian suspected that there was the real murderer among them who killed Wei Wenshan. He could have investigated secretly without making any noise, but he had to pretend to be ordered by the Holy Court and block the mountain gate, causing such a big commotion. This meant that once they officially entered the Holy Court, he would hardly have another chance.
In that case, what does Mu Hanyan have to worry about?
Although Wei Xiaotian is much stronger than her now, Mu Hanyan is confident that with her talent, it is only a matter of time before she surpasses him. All she needs is time.
"I found that in front of you, I suddenly became stupid." Ye Yanran said with emotion.
She had always prided herself on her meticulousness, but it wasn't until she met Mu Hanyan that she realized what it meant to have a thorough plan. On the surface, it looked like Mu Hanyan had carelessly let Wei Xiaotian go, but after she explained, she realized that she had actually been thinking things through while she was daydreaming.
"What are you talking about? I don't seem to understand." Jiang Yuzhe short-circuited again, looking at Mu Hanyan and Ye Yanran with a twinkling look.
"Don't complain, there are people who are even dumber than you." Mu Hanyan ignored him and comforted Ye Yanran.
Ye Yanran glanced at Jiang Yuzhe, who looked confused, and her mood suddenly improved a lot.
Everyone else was practicing qigong and regulating their breathing, even Yue Fanchen and the others were no exception. Only Mu Hanyan and Hua Yue were standing, which made them look too different. So, Mu Hanyan gave a wink and sat down cross-legged like them, and started practicing on the spot.
After witnessing the might of Mu Hanyan's sword, the other disciples of the Holy Court no longer dared to look down on these descendants of the gods' guardians from various countries. Their original jealousy was buried deep in their hearts, and they dared not show any hostility. Seeing them practicing their energy and regulating their breathing, they did not dare to approach to interrupt, and the old man waited by their side.
Soon, everyone opened their eyes one by one and stopped practicing.
"Are you okay?" Mu Hanyan asked Yue Fanchen with concern.
If he guessed correctly, the reason why his sword was so powerful was because it drained the strength from them. Mu Hanyan was afraid that it would bring them some hidden dangers.
"It's nothing serious. I was just too nervous when I saw you fighting with Wei Xiaotian just now, so I felt uneasy." Yue Fanchen said as he secretly winked at Mu Hanyan.
Obviously, he was helping Mu Hanyan cover up. The other disciples of various nations had only heard about Mu Hanyan's strength from hearsay and had never seen it in person, but he, like Hua Yue and the others, knew Mu Hanyan's background very well and guessed that their exhaustion must be related to Mu Hanyan's previous sword attack.
He had never even heard of such a strange thing before. If it were to get out, who knows how others would view Mu Hanyan. They would probably regard her as a heretic and attack her together, so he had to cover it up as soon as possible.
"Yes, I was sweating profusely on my palms just now. Even when I traveled with my master to Longyan Mountains and faced the attacks of two violent stone monsters, I was never so nervous." Another big man with a full beard said with emotion.
Judging from the man's clothes, he was obviously not from Shangyue. Mu Hanyan was wondering why, when she saw this guy winking at her. After taking a closer look, she realized that this guy was Nan Aotian.
Compared to the competition at Longyan College, this pretty boy's beard was even thicker, and he deliberately widened his eyes when he spoke. He looked as mighty as the ancient gods in New Year pictures. Mu Hanyan didn't recognize him if she didn't look carefully.
Nan Aotian also knew his own strength, and by saying this, he was obviously trying to cover it up for himself. Although Mu Hanyan didn't know why he took the initiative to show goodwill, she still nodded to show her gratitude.
As the saying goes, three people make a tiger. With Yue Fanchen and Nan Aotian covering for Mu Hanyan, and Hua Yue, Long Ya, and the others agreeing, the others didn't think much of it. Just now, when Mu Hanyan and Wei Xiaotian clashed, they were shocked by her Sword Saint-level strength, but also worried about her. It felt as if they were fighting Wei Xiaotian, not Mu Hanyan. It was truly unprecedented tension, so much so that their entire minds were focused on Mu Hanyan's sword strike, and it was normal to feel a little tired.
Although Yue Fanchen said that everything was fine, Mu Hanyan was still a little worried. She checked him carefully several times and only felt relieved after confirming that there were no hidden dangers.
Originally, Mu Hanyan wanted to take out the pills and distribute them to everyone, but then she changed her mind and thought that doing so might cause people to have wild thoughts and ruin the good intentions of Yue Fanchen and Nan Aotian, so she gave up the idea.
