"Okay, okay, I, Ao Fangchen, am indeed old. Even a junior dares to look down on me." Ao Fangchen's face was full of anger and sadness at the same time.
"Elder Ao, the descendants of the guardians of the gods of various countries are of vital importance to the continent. That is why the Holy Lord invited them back to the Holy Court. I hope Elder Ao will consider the overall situation." Ye Lanxuan said.
"Hahaha, what? Are you going to bring out the Holy Lord to suppress me? One of you is one of the two most powerful saints a thousand years ago, and the other is the number one saint a thousand years later. You are so despicable and shameless that you teamed up to hurt me, and yet you still tell me about the overall situation. I will fight you!" Ao Fangchen's dignity was greatly hit, and he would not listen to his words. He roared, slapped his chest hard, and spat out a mouthful of blood.
I saw the blood mist burning like flames, which was obviously the blood sacrifice technique.
Even an ordinary swordsman would see a sharp increase in strength after performing the blood sacrifice technique, let alone him?
In an instant, a huge formation pattern appeared under his feet, a muffled roar came from the sky, and the entire Holy Sword Peak was shrouded in lightning.
Judging from his posture, he was actually prepared to destroy his own cultivation, or even sacrifice his life, to die together with the other party.
Mu Hanyan never imagined that this old man's temperament was even more extreme than Jin Qisheng's. He didn't even want to give up his life just because he suffered a little loss and lost some face.
"Fuck, are you crazy? You're willing to give up your life just for the sake of face!" Jiang Yuzhe yelled.
"That's right, what the baby said is the truth. If we can beat him, we will fight. If we can't, we will run away. Life is the most important. As long as you are alive, it is never too late to take revenge." Zirong also cried out, and in the meantime, said the truth that Ling Baobao usually said.
Hua Yue's mouth twitched slightly. It was already this late, and these two were still joking. Also, he didn't approve of the whole "dog life" thing. If you cherish your life, then so be it. Why call your life a dog's life? Although Bao Bao's words made perfect sense, Han Yan had always done the same thing. It was just that Bao Bao's words summed it up perfectly.
At this moment, not only did Mu Hanyan and others change their expressions, but even the disciples of the Holy Court at the foot of the peak turned pale. Once the power of this formation was fully released, they would probably not be able to escape death.
"Elder Ao, stop!" The majestic voice of the Holy Lord suddenly came from the air, and a seal fell from the sky, covering Ao Fangchen.
Ao Fangchen's body trembled violently, and the formation under his feet disappeared quickly.
"Greetings to the Holy Lord, greetings to the Holy Lord!" All the disciples of the Holy Court breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly bowed to the Holy Lord. Only then did they realize that their backs were soaked with cold sweat and their feet were a little weak, as if they had just walked through the gates of hell.
"Elder Ao, don't you know what this Holy Sword Peak is? Don't you know the ban I issued before?" The Holy Lord questioned Ao Fangchen with an angry look on his face.
"So what? Mu Hanyan caused my disciple to be seriously injured and his cultivation was completely destroyed. I was just seeking justice from him. Jian Wuchen and Ye Lanxun actually tried to stop me. Do they want me to swallow my anger?" Ao Fangchen said angrily. Even when facing the Holy Lord, he did not restrain himself at all.
"I just heard about Yu Tang's injury. I'm afraid his actions were inappropriate. In my opinion, we should find out the truth before dealing with him. If it is really Mu Hanyan who deliberately harmed him, I will definitely give him justice." said the Holy Lord.
"Hmph, what is there to investigate? Even if Yu Tang did something wrong, it was because he was young, ignorant and willful. It's not a big mistake. Mu Hanyan and others were obviously unharmed, but they caused Yu Tang to be seriously injured and his cultivation was completely destroyed. It's obvious that they intended to harm him!" Ao Fangchen said angrily.
Mu Hanyan was also convinced by this old man. In front of the Holy Lord, he was still so unreasonable. According to him, as long as Han Yutang didn't kill anyone, it was not a big mistake, he was just willful. If he was killed by him, it was probably just an accidental injury and he deserved to die. He was also just willful and it was not a big mistake.
"Elder Ao, you can't say that..." The Holy Lord probably had the same idea as Mu Hanyan and said with a wry smile. However, before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by Ao Fangchen.
"Then what should I say? Lord Saint, don't forget who saved you. In the great battle a thousand years ago, six of the seven elders of Shenlao Peak died, and I was the only one who survived. Yutang's grandfather and grandfather-in-law were even dismembered. Their two families have only had one descendant for generations, and they only have this one descendant. Can you bear to watch him become a cripple like this?" Ao Fangchen said with a choked voice. When he mentioned the death of several other elders of Shenlao Peak, he was even more heartbroken and angry.
"Don't worry, Elder Ao. I will keep Yu Tang's matter in mind. You can go back to Shenlao Peak first. I will definitely give you an explanation on this matter." The Holy Lord sighed and said.
Not to mention those disciples of the Holy Court, even Mu Hanyan could feel the helplessness of the Holy Lord.
The seven elders of Shenlao Peak had saved his life, and Han Yutang's grandfather and maternal grandfather had even suffered a tragic death in order to save him. How could he possibly turn against Ao Fangchen? Ao Fangchen's current status and reputation, his arrogance and dominance, ultimately stemmed from this. Those who rely on their achievements and seniority to bully others are not limited to the secular world; they exist within the Holy Court as well. This is also why Han Yutang is so arrogant and reckless, acting without regard for the importance of things.
This couldn't be blamed on the Holy Lord's weakness. The entire Holy Court Continent had always upheld benevolence and righteousness. While the strong were essentially respected, as the Holy Lord, he absolutely could not act ungratefully. If he truly treated Ao Fangchen and Han Yutang the same as everyone else, it would only chill the hearts of the older generation of Holy Court masters. Who would be willing to sacrifice their lives for the Holy Court?
So many times, he could only turn a blind eye.
"Then I will wait for the instructions from the Holy Lord." Ao Fangchen snorted coldly and walked away.
Although he was used to being domineering and bullying, he still had to give the Holy Lord some face in front of so many people. What's more, he knew that in today's situation, he knew it was impossible for him to hurt Mu Hanyan in the slightest. The Holy Lord's words just gave him a way out.
"You can disperse as well." The Holy Lord waved to the disciples of the Holy Court at the foot of the peak.
Everyone was so frightened that they were sweating profusely. How could they dare to stay? They saluted the Holy Lord and left one after another.
"I'm sorry to make you laugh at me, but every family has its own problems." The Holy Lord said to Mu Hanyan and others in a self-deprecating manner.
At this moment, the Holy Lord no longer had the majestic aura of dominating the continent and being able to decide the life and death of tens of thousands of people with a single thought. His amiability revealed a hint of intimacy, and even a hint of helplessness. He was more like an elder in the family, making Mu Hanyan and others feel close to him.
"Your Excellency, I'm too kind. I was too reckless and put you in such a difficult position," Mu Hanyan said a little embarrassedly. However, even if she could go back in time, she would still do the same thing. A man like Han Yutang wouldn't feel any gratitude if she let him go. Instead, he would feel humiliated and would only come back with even more vengeance.
