At this time, the big man who was knocked away by Mu Hanyan's palm also stood up, but still looked at Mu Hanyan with anger on his face.
Mu Hanyan looked at the big man carefully. He was over middle-aged, with broad shoulders and a strong waist. His clothes were as black as charcoal. If he were in the Holy Court Continent, he would be either a butcher or an iron general.
"Black Butcher, why don't you come over quickly to pay your respects to the High Priest and apologize to him!" The others winked at the big man.
Mu Hanyan's guess was absolutely correct. This guy really was a butcher. It turned out that no matter whether it was the Holy Court Continent or the Continent of Gods, butchers all looked the same.
"Why should I apologize? Even if you are the High Priest, you can't be unreasonable and confuse good with evil. He slept with my daughter and lived in my house for so long, and now he wants to run away with his pants pulled up. There is no such thing in the world." The big black man called Black Butcher said in a buzzing voice.
"What!" Mu Hanyan was shocked.
She knew that classmate Ling Baobao had a habit of cheating and deceiving people. When they first met, he was chased all over the street like a rat for this very reason. Seeing him being chased again this time, Mu Hanyan thought that he was a fortune teller specializing in infertility treatment, cheating people out of their money and causing some minor trouble, and that he would just pay some money to be fined. But she didn't expect that he would do such a shameless thing.
"He... he's talking nonsense, I didn't do that." Ling Baobao said with grief and anger.
But Mu Hanyan was a little skeptical about what he said. Since it concerned her daughter's innocence, this big black man shouldn't say anything so casually.
"We also know about this. Hei Tuzi didn't frame you. It's ok for you to abandon her, but you can't deny it." Others said one after another, looking at Ling Baobao with eyes full of contempt.
Seeing everyone's indignation, Mu Hanyan became even more suspicious.
"No, Hanyan, you have to believe me, I really didn't." Ling Baobao grabbed Mu Hanyan's sleeve and said pitifully.
"So you two know each other." The others then realized that Mu Hanyan and Ling Baobao knew each other. Although they still respected Mu Hanyan, they also became more hostile.
"My name is Mu Hanyan. I know him. What's going on?" Mu Hanyan asked. Although she wasn't sure if Ling Baobao had done anything so filthy, she didn't want to arouse any hostility from him before she got to the bottom of the matter.
After all, in this continent of gods, not only was her strength suppressed, but she was also injured. If a conflict arose and attracted the attention of the Holy See, she would be stuck.
"So your last name is Mu too. Maybe you were from the same family hundreds of years ago. That makes things easier." A young man said happily. Seeing Mu Hanyan's puzzled look, he explained, "Our village is called Mujia Village. Eighty-nine out of ten villagers have the last name Mu, and they are all from the same family."
"Don't underestimate our Mujia Village. We also had priests hundreds of years ago, so we have the fiefdom bestowed by the Lord God himself." Another villager said proudly.
"Oh." Mu Hanyan nodded woodenly. She didn't know what was so great about a village that had produced a priest in the Continent of Gods, so she didn't know how she should behave.
That calm and composed look seemed to imply disapproval in the eyes of the villagers, so they looked at Mu Hanyan with even more awe.
"Your Excellency the Priest, this man came to our village a year ago. On the first night he arrived, he slept with the daughter of the Black Butcher." Out of awe, they did not dare to talk nonsense anymore and began to answer Mu Hanyan's questions.
"Poor Yu'er, she's only 30 years old and hasn't even married yet. Her reputation is ruined like this. What will I do in the future?" Upon hearing this, Hei Tuzi beat his chest and stamped his feet, crying loudly.
Mu Hanyan choked. She was still unmarried at thirty. Aside from those devoted to cultivation, the average woman from aristocratic families in the Holy Court Continent would marry at seventeen or eighteen, and ordinary people even earlier. Could it be that marriage was so late in the Divine Continent?
The key point is, I never noticed that Ling Baobao had any tendency towards being a queen before, so why is she so heavy-handed? Could it be that she has an Oedipus complex?
"Yes, I watched that girl Yu'er grow up. She kept her chastity for so many years, but he ruined her reputation. Now he wants to pull up his pants and turn his eyes away. No wonder the black butcher is so angry. I hope the priest will punish him for his disrespect." A white-bearded old man in his seventies said with emotion.
Others also started talking at once, all blaming Ling Baobao.
"I didn't do it. I was wronged..." Ling Baobao muttered to himself with a look of grievance, but his voice was quickly drowned out by the loud voices of the crowd.
"So what happened next?" Mu Hanyan continued to ask. Judging from the outrage just now, Ling Baobao must have caused more than just this one trouble, and of course, this trouble was also quite troublesome.
"He ruined the reputation of another girl, so Hei Tuzi naturally wouldn't let him go. He thought that even if he beat him to death it would not help, so he arranged for them to get married. It happened that Fengcheng Temple was recruiting priests at that time. He said that he had understood the heart of life and could become a priest. We were afraid of delaying his future, so we persuaded Hei Tuzi to postpone it for a while and wait until he became a priest before getting married." said a young man.
"In order to allow him to become a priest, we took out all our family wealth, provided him with food and drink, bought him herbs and elixirs, and raised him to be fat and plump. But who knew that when the time came, he actually ran away.
"The most infuriating thing is that he didn't even use a single priestly spell while we were chasing him. I suspect he's a liar." Before he could finish his words, another young man spoke angrily.
"What do you mean by liar? Didn't I show it to you before? It obviously worked. I don't know why it didn't work just now." Ling Baobao argued, but he looked obviously lacking in confidence.
Needless to say, Mu Hanyan could also guess that he was just like when he first arrived at the Holy Court Continent. He could learn anything he wanted, but it was sometimes effective and sometimes not, and he would fail at the critical moment.
"If you are not a liar, why are you running away?" the young man asked.
"You never told me before that recruiting priests for Fengcheng Temple would result in death." Ling Baobao said with a sad face.
"If you are not a liar, you can become a priest. What does it have to do with you whether people die or not?" the young man asked relentlessly.
"This..." Ling Baobao was at a loss for words and didn't know how to answer for a moment.
"Master Priest, this time Fengcheng Temple is recruiting priests, which is related to the fate of hundreds of people in our Mujia Village. That's why I ignored my daughter's reputation and didn't rush him to get married. Who knew that this guy turned out to be a shameless villain who cheated people for money and sex." The black butcher pointed at Ling Baobao's pretty face, spitting everywhere.
"I didn't cheat on her." Ling Baobao insisted, but did not deny that he had cheated her of her money.
